What did our beloved Claret and Cobalt do the evening of March, 10th? They did what they trained for. They did what they most wanted. They did what they are capable of. They “came to score” (The Aggrolites).

About Under the Crossbar
About Under the Crossbar
Under the Crossbar is a blog espousing the game of soccer as applied by Utah’s MLS club, Real Salt Lake. I write daily (or strive to, at least) about the club, the game and the league, though I’ve been known to occasionally ramble on a bit.
Admittedly, I vacillate between “soccer” and “football” but I assure you, I don’t mean to pass judgment on either term. Typically, I will use football when discussing the game outside of the United States and soccer in, but I’m not exactly going to be the most consistent in this matter.
During any given home match, I can typically be found sitting in section 35.
Information found on the blog comes from a variety of sources, including official press releases, player and coach interviews, and club sources.
The photos accompanying each post, unless otherwise noted, are courtesy and copyright of Real Salt Lake.
