08/16/2010 -
New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Real Salt Lake midfielder Javier Morales was
voted Major League Soccer Player of the Week for Week 20 of the 2010 MLS
season on Monday.
Morales led Real Salt Lake to a 2-0 victory, scoring both goals, against the
Columbus Crew on Saturday at Rio Tinto Stadium.
He gave RSL an early lead with a fantastic strike in the 11th minute following
a short corner with teammate Fabian Espindola as he drifted towards the upper-
left corner of the 18-yard box, received the ball from Espindola and blasted a
shot toward the far post that crashed off the woodwork and went into the net.
With his team still leading 1-0, Morales struck again in the 60th minute from
a free kick when he sent his shot from just outside the area through the right
side of the wall and past goalkeeper Will Hesmer.
The win stretched RSL's home unbeaten streak to 21 games.
This is third career Player of the Week award for Morales and his second of
this season.
The MLS Player of the Week award is selected each week by the North American
Soccer Reporters. The group consists of members of online, print, television,
radio media. More information can be found at soccerreporters.com.
