Anderson Julio’s Second Goal Hands Real Salt Lake 3-1 Lead

SANDY, Utah – Real Salt Lake’s Anderson Julio has been a thorn in FC Dallas’ side all night, playing a role in each of RSL’s first-half goals. Not done, Julio finished a beautiful 62nd-minute run with a right-footed poke past the keeper for a 3-1 lead.

Julio’s goal was his second of the night for the attacker.

Dominik Marczuk started the build when he found space on the right sideline. After dribbling into the attacking third, Marczuk found Julio with a cross near the top of the six.

Julio wasted no time, using one touch to beat Maarten Peas for the second time in the evening. Julio’s ninth goal of the season gave RSL a commanding 3-1 lead with less than 30 minutes to play. It was Marczuk’s first assist of the year.
