The target of Diego Rubio draws hosts Austin FC 1–1 with Real Salt Lake in the Western Conference match in three minutes in three minutes.
Rubio’s tally, Dani Perera allowed a small corner to divide the points for the fourth consecutive MLS match, Varde (5-6-5, 20 digits) away from a small corner and a support inside the six-yard box by Zan Kolmanik. Austin has not won in league play after a period of seven MLS matches, defeating La Galaxy 1–0 at home on 19 April.
Real Salt Lake prepared the vital road victory after William Agada’s head with a free kick by Diego Luna in the 67th minute, stopping visitors for a 1-0 lead. Agada pounced on the box outside the box and ran away from Luna from 10 yards outside the box and defeated Austin’s goalkeeper Brad Stuver Low from his right side.
Instead, the RSL (4-9-3, 15 points) continued its line on 26 April without a win for six competitions for the 3–1 decisions on the road vs San Diego FC.
Austin finished with four shots on a goal for three for RSL, out of which three were coming in the last seven minutes.
Varde had the first scoring chance of the match in the 22nd minute, when Usman Bookri worked hard to bring the ball deep into the zone before going to Brandon Wazqvez, whose header shut down the crossbar and was out of the path of loss.
RSL’s Pablo Ruiz tested the Stuver in the 26th minute, with a low percentage shot from outside the box by Austin Keeper. John Galagher of Varde scored a goal with his team’s first shot in the 31st minute, challenging Rafael Cabral with a left leg shot, which easily survived.
The sides jointly produced just one shot on the goal for 12 shots in the first half, and each by seven visitors.
