Bobby Wood scored his first career MLS goal to help lead Real Salt Lake to a 3-0 victory over the Colorado Rapids in the first leg of the Rocky Mountain Cup in Sandy, Utah, on Saturday night.
Salt Lake (5-4-5, 20 points) earned just its third victory in the last 12 matches and its third home victory of the season. The Utah club took the lead on an early defensive error by the Rapids and never looked back.
Colorado (7-4-3, 24 points) never recovered after giving up an own goal. The Rapids did not create a shot on goal until the second half. They ultimately edged RSL 9-5 in total shots and held possession 58 percent of the time, but came away with nothing to show for it.
