Real Salt Lake forward **Damir Kreilach**, Homegrown midfielder **Diego Luna** and manager Pablo Mastroeni have been named to the MLSsoccer.com’s MLS Team of the Matchday for Matchday 20 following the team’s 3-1 road victory over St. Louis CITY. Kreilach was named to the starting XI, Mastroeni was named Manager of the Matchday and Luna earned a spot on the Team of the Matchday bench.Kreilach scored his third and fourth goal of the season, while Luna scored his first in MLS, helping the Club continue their stellar play on the road. Kreilach is also up for Player of the Matchday thanks to his two goals.
Luna’s goal was a culmination of the young midfielder’s tireless work in his past three starts. After coming close to goals against NYCFC and D.C. United, the Homegrown finally broke through with a fantastic curling shot, in part helped by a smartly timed dummy from Kreilach off a **Danny Musovski** pass.
After St. Louis equalized, Kreilach made it his mission to ensure RSL would leave the midwest with three points. In the 48th minute following an intricate dribbling sequence from Luna, Maikel Chang flicked on a perfect pass to Kreilach who made no mistake in giving the Claret-and-Cobalt the lead back.
Then in the 66th minute, **Andrew Brody**, who was in the Matchday 19 Team of the Matchday, found Kreilach at the top of the box, and the Captain slotted home the game decider. Mission accomplished.
