Week 21 Power Rankings
Two home draws on the trot have been the latest results for Mike Petke’s side, making RSL unbeaten in their last four games. On July 29 the Claret-and-Cobalt drew with Columbus Crew SC as goals from Joao Plata and Jefferson Savarino earned a point for the home side but was it enough to garner positive movement up the politburo’s power ranking’s charts?

“Followed up two straight impressive road wins with two ultimately disappointing home draws. Those are probably the final home points they can afford to drop this season if they intend to play into November.”

“Mike Petke's suspension meant there was no rant this week. RSL's bad luck with the post kept things to a 2-2 draw with Columbus.”

“It took RSL 20 weeks of MLS action to string more than two positive results in a row, and now it has built that little unbeaten run to four after Saturday’s 2–2 draw with Columbus. The fact that RSL gave up a lead in that draw is disappointing, but what has been a bad season by the Wasatch Range is being given a glimmer of hope by this recent uptick.”
