Yura Movsisyan and Brooks Lennon scored goals moments apart in the closing minutes and Real Salt Lake rallied to beat the Colorado Rapids 2-1 on Saturday night. Kevin Doyle opened the scoring for the Rapids (1-3-1) in the 29th minute, getting parallel to the ground while diving to head home a cross by Marlon Hairston. Movsysian slipped a penalty kick, after Colorado's Jared Watts was shown the red card for a hand ball on the line, between the left post and Zac McMath's outstretched arm to tie it in the 85th.
