KANSAS CITY, Kan. - Justen Glad scored his first MLS goal, Luke Mulholland added another and Real Salt Lake beat Sporting Kansas City 2-1 on Saturday night.

RSL went up 1-0 in the 29th minute when Glad sprinted past the back line on Joao Plata's free kick and headed it in. Glad was a hometown signee in 2014.

Mulholland made it 2-0 in the 79th minute. After two failed clearances and a giveaway on a RSL corner kick, Mulholland bent in a long-range shot.
