COMMERCE CITY, Colo. (AP) — Defender Reggie Cannon scored early in the second half and keeper Adam Beaudry wasn't tested for his first clean sheet in his third career start as the Colorado Rapids kept Real Salt Lake reeling with a 1-0 victory on Saturday night.
Cannon used his head to score off a corner kick from Youssef Maziz in the 58th minute for the winner. It was the second goal this season for Cannon and his fifth in 114 career matches. Maziz has two assists in his first four league appearances.
