Real Salt Lake secured a convincing 3-1 victory over Sporting Kansas City at Children's Mercy Park, with Morgan Guilavogui proving to be the standout performer. The visitors established an early dominance, with Guilavogui opening the scoring in the 11th minute, assisted by Noel Caliskan, before Sergi Solans doubled their lead just three minutes later. Sporting KC managed to pull one back in the 26th minute through Taylor Calheira, set up by André Luiz, offering a glimmer of hope. However, Guilavogui extinguished any comeback aspirations with his second goal in the 61st minute, again from a Caliskan assist, sealing the win for Real Salt Lake despite a flurry of late substitutions and yellow cards for both sides.
