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.

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.
Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.
Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.
Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.
Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.
All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.
A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
