Memo Rodriguez and Tyler Boyd scored within a three-minute span to lead the Los Angeles Galaxy to a 3–2 comeback win over Real Salt Lake on Wednesday, May 31, in Sandy, Utah.

Gaston Brugman’s penalty-kick goal four minutes into first-half extra time gave LA (3–9–3, 12 points) the initial lead, but Real Salt Lake (4–7–4, 16 points) responded with goals from Danny Musovski and Pablo Ruiz in what was looking like a dominant second half for the home team.
