Soccer Betting Lines
09/05/2010 - Sandy, UT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Real Salt Lake earned a 1-0 victory over Red Bull New York on Saturday night at Rio Tinto Stadium to equal the longest home undefeated streak in Major League Soccer history at 22 games.
Fabian Espindola scored the game's only goal in the fourth minute as RSL moves within a point of Columbus and Los Angeles for the Supporter's Shield.
New York (11-8-4) falls seven points off the pace in the Eastern table, but still has a 10-point cushion on the third-placed team.
Espindola got things going early for RSL when he deked past central defender Tim ream after running onto a long ball from Kyle Beckerman. Espindola was then able to push a shot past New York goalkeeper Greg Sutton and in for his sixth goal of the season.
New York has a number of chances, especially in the first half, to equalize, but were unable to beat goalkeeper Nick Rimando and the RSL defense.
Striker Juan Pablo Angel had a close header in the 12 that was tipped over by Rimando, as well as two chances just before the hour mark. The first being another close range header saved by Rimando, the second being the ensuing rebound, that was cleared off the goal line by Beckerman.
New York will aim to rebound when it hosts Colorado on Saturday, while RSL (12-4-7) is at Seattle on Thursday in its next MLS fixture.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
