Movsisyan’s double as Lake beat Rapids 2-1

Sandy, Utah: Yura Movsisyan scored two goals and Real Salt Lake rallied to beat the Colorado Rapids 2-1 despite missing two second-half penalty kicks Friday. Shkelzen Gashi pounced on a rebound to score the opener for Colorado after only five minutes, before Movsisyan equalised in the 39th minute after a sustained period of possession by Real Salt Lake. Movsisyan scored the winner just after half-time with a long strike from outside the box that found the top-right corner of the net. However, Movsisyan missed his chance of a hat-trick in the 57th minute when he put a penalty kick wide and then Colorado keeper Tim Howard made a brilliant save on Javier Morales’ penalty kick attempt in the 83rd minute.
