Real Salt Lake's hopes of advancing in the MLS playoffs were dashed as they fell 3-1 to Portland Timbers in the Wild Card match. Felipe Mora scored two goals in the first half, giving the Timbers a commanding lead. Justen Glad scored a consolation goal for Real Salt Lake in the 39th minute, but it was not enough to overcome the deficit. The loss marks a disappointing end to the season for Real Salt Lake, who will now focus on rebuilding for next year. The Timbers, on the other hand, will move on to face San Diego FC in the first round of the playoffs.
