The all-Major League Soccer CONCACAF Champions League final will be decided at Rio Tinto Stadium after Columbus and Real Salt Lake ended scoreless in the opening leg of the two-game series. Whatever advantage RSL had with the healthier roster evaporated in the 52nd minute when they were reduced to 10-men after Tony Beltran was red carded. Columbus went a man down when Emilio Renteria was sent off in the 71st minute. Salt Lake’s Nat Borchers joined him, with the game finishing 10v9.
