Almost ten years ago. Still can't believe RLS won this game and only in its 5th year in existence. #RealSaltLake
Danny Boy Portland also won MLS Cup in their 5th year. Just a fun fact.
And now LAFC is added to that list
Lies again? Pregnant Fat Get Laid
Watching this ten years later and still waiting for this kind of bliss again
I revisit this video 3-4 times a year... Most exciting squad we've ever had. Go Go RSL!
it’s tradition as a rsl fan to rewatch this every once in a while
YAY. Real Salt Lake is my home team!

Honest question, not trying to be mean, I just truly want to know cus I'll be coming out there in July. I was out there Aug. 2017, I had no team colors on, I was standing on the other side of the pitch from where the visiting team fans are and for some reason you guys think you can intimidate me, why is that, is it cus i'm alone, or is it cus most guys don't think a women alone from out of state posses much of a threat? Or is it cus of the team I support, we do kinda hate each other.

@@megslynnandrade i know its been a year but thats how soccer fans are
Every time that I watch this ( which is quite often) I get chills like none other. Come on RSL let's win the MLS title this year
This year
I remember when this happened when I was like 12. I was actually devastated.
I had to get my jaw fixed after Donovan's miss.
brian mellblom haha i feel you man. One of the only times I ever cried after a soccer match. This and also Brazil's exit from the 2010 world cup against the Netherlands.
Oh man...There was the 7-1 rout by Germany, which crushed Brazil's dreams.
Then came a red card and a PK (but didn't the foul actually occur outside the box?) in the second minute of the third place match vs. the Netherlands, which rubbed salt on a fresh wound.
But that the final goal Brazil would concede in the tournament came in freaking stoppage time was the ultimate "kicking them while they're down" moment. Just when they thought it wouldn't get any worse, here's one more goal to remember 2014 by.
Oh yeah, and this all happened in their home country.
I was a California Angels fan in 1995 and witnessed their slow, painful collapse, which was statistically the worst collapse in MLB history. They were sitting atop their division by 10.5 games on August 16, and then went 14-28, including two separate nine-game losing streaks. They ended up tied with Seattle, who defeated them in a tiebreaker game by a score of 9-1, ending their season and denying them their first shot at the playoffs in over a decade. And yet, as soul-crushing as that was, I'm still not sure whether that's worse than what Brazil suffered this year. Holy freaking ouch.
Same here man I was 14 and I remember being so heartbroken after.
dxman100 Donovan choked in the penalty hard :0 If he would of made it I can almost guarantee that Galaxy would of won the cup
Still watch this classic all the time
Again 2009. RSL can do it. Go RSL !
4 years later... & it still gives me chills.
Try 11 years later
Lies again? Research Scientist
@@tannerroberts7248 ok
@Themesticks The word "Soccer" Started in England at Oxford and was wildly used in England until the NASL got big and it was incorrectly linked to the USA. The English need to learn about their own sport.
That was one of the best days of my life
These were the best highlights of soccer I've ever seen. It was a real good and close game. My favorite part was the last shootout round
RSL vs LA Galaxy 2018 and RSL are still on top with 6-2 win!
This was the MLS Cup that changed everything for Major League Soccer. Ratings and audience was at its lowest point here, and interest in it wasn’t as high as it is now. This championship game featured star galore: Landon Donovan, David Beckham, Kyle Beckerman, and Nick rimando. A David vs Goliath matchup. Since this game, interest and for this league grew exponentially, and continues to grow. MLS Cup 2009 will always remain a classic.
RSL getting that second cup this year, mark my words
As someone who started watching MLS in 2014 I kind of want to know how two western conference teams ended up in MLS Cup.
the top two teams from each conference made the playoffs while the next four teams in the supporter's shield standings were wild card teams. a wild card team from the West (RSL) made it through the Eastern Conference bracket to set up the all-West showdown
Heck of a Finals. Hard to believe that such a mighty LA Galaxy team with Donovan and Beckham and coached by Arenas were beaten.
its good for the MLS that players like Beckham is featured in the league it certainly attracts possive attitude towards youth in the US and hopefully encourage them to become like such player(s)
EPIC match! As a spectator, you really couldn't ask for anything more. And as an RSL fan, you couldn't have dreamed of such a good outcome. Too bad we couldn't make a deeper run than we did this year.
I'm from argentina, and here we probably never watch MLS. It's a very good league. I love it.
its so nice to relive this game!!!!
I was 19 years old. Back when RSL was actually a decent team.
It was a great birthday present! 😄
Still watch this and just get choked up, especially with Robbie Findley game tying goal. The jubilation ❤
Great game, I was there. I wanted LA to win, but RSL seemed to want it more.
2021 is ours !!!
piece* and I don't know about you but Rimando is one of the best!!! #RSL
Nick Rimando the BEST!!!
thx a lot for posting this.
The USA are the best country to live if you´re a sports fan like me. It's simply gracious. Soccer has this problem of not assuring the thrill and excitement (some games can be really boring), but no one puts a show like you, americans. Greetings from Portugal.
man, I want so much fans in the swiss stadiums :(
respect to the MLS, great League !
One of the best games
@Themesticks Australia, New Zealand, most of East Asia, and South Africa also call it Soccer.
Emocionante
2012 here we come! This is our year again! RSL TID! ! !
DAMN GOOD MATCH! MLS IS GROWING HEY IF THERE IS NO NFL FOR 2011, THEY SHOULD SHOW MLS GAMES ON FOX AND CBS! OR AT LEAST RUGBY, I DON'T KNOW JUST A THOUGHT!
This was before Portland became an MLS team so I was rooting for RSL of course. What an upset and years later Borchers would join the Timbers and help them win their first as well.
Iremember watching it live at Qwest field for my birthday. What a great birthday present until the galaxy lost 😂💀
Soccer is the most popular sport in Europe, Brazil, rest of South America, Central America, maybe in Africa, and now i hope it becomes popular in the US.
What a great way to finish.
nick rimando hasn't been my favorite MLS keeper for the past 5 years for nothing.
@hanstermovies yes it's really getting popular here and especially with this world cup showing the U.S. had I see it getting even more poplular. GOOD LUCK! AGAINST URUGUAY, I HOPE YOU GUYS WIN IT ALL!
Beautiful! RSL win it again this year!
Whos watching this in 2017 as an Rsl fan and hoping it would be 2009 again? Because same.
Peter DeBry right here man
2018
2018!!!
Great game.
Omar also cost Donovan to hurt break his hand as he didn't need to make that slide run like he did. Next year though. With a few more draft picks and new signings during this off season the Galaxy are a favorite to make a repeat trip to the cup final.
Plus the sub RSL made for their injury was a better player than they initially had on the field in my opinion. Their injuries did'n hurt them in the least. According to Bruce Arena, Dema Kovalenko was to come on in the second half; and Alan Gordon perhaps as well.
@chronicvision420 i wouldn't worry about it..... england gave football to the world, the world took it and 30 years later shown england how it should be played.... i'm from the uk and love watching the mls
@welcometourf Doesn't MLS have this rule of the association supporting the transfer from a top player, in order to help promote the league? I read about this somewhere
@Themesticks I know it was originally called football, But the word "Soccer" is an ENGLISH word that many countries use today, yet everyone uses it as an excuse to hate on the USA for the sake of hating on the USA.
I would like to dedicate this win to Kale & Jess who are from Salt Lake City.
I would thank those who don't live in the United States but still wish the MLS well! We need more foreign respect in order to grow our league to what we hope to be a real competitor for top class talent.
مقابلة جميلة
wow!!! great x 10 game!!
@90cbh It's called Soccer because it's an old English term that is used in many places in the world.
I'm from Seattle, and I lightly followed the Sounders in 2009. I was pretty skeptical of soccer. Then, I went to this game, wound up in the RSL support section, and got hooked the the MLS. Never looked back. Sounders FTW.
Seth Falstein yeah us rsl fans are few but we make a lot of noise
12 years ago and guess who’s still smashing the sounders today😂
LA Galaxy = Pittsburgh Steelers
Real Salt Lake = Arizona Cardinals
It's because it's the repeat of the Super Bowl XLIII in the first major played in white and red, however, the sole underdog team won the major championship which is red.
Edit : For those comment who didn't know, fhe first four majors in 2009 which all successful teams won againist the four underdogs with one exception because who don't know who sole underdog team is.
NFL : Pittsburgh Steelers over Arizona Cardinals (27-23) (February 1st, 2009)
NHL : Pittsburgh Penguins (2) over Detroit Red Wings (7 of 7 games) (May 30th - June 12th, 2009)
NBA : Los Angeles Lakers (3) over Orlando Magic (5 of 7 games) (June 4th - 14th, 2009)
MLB : New York Yankees (4) over Philadelphia Phillies (6 of 7 games) (October 28th - November 4th, 2009)
Failure to win a major championship againist the underdog
MLS : Real Salt Lake over Los Angeles Galaxy (1-1 a.e.t) (5-4 p) (November 22nd, 2009)
Real Salt Lake is only underdog team to beat the most favorite and successful team Los Angeles Galaxy in the fifth and final major in the United States, very heartbreak. 😢
Great
Nick Rimando will never pay for another beer in SLC
Good Football !!!
I can't understand what team is the crowd behind the penalti goals supporting. People just don't react effusively like in Europe. Anyway, I'm glad US football (or soccer) is developing and growing every year. Cheers from Portugal :)
“Donovan put it over!”
In…credible
How does mls cup with beckham not sell out in Seattle? If tickets are 50 bucks im flying across to see that game even if it's not my team
WOOOO RLS!
@TheKrismak No, they do film penalty's like that in the big matches, sometimes you get 1 pen taking from that angle, but usually its just stand angles and this would be the reply in big matches where the stadiums can have a camera like that. European football just focuses on football nothing else when it comes down to it. Watch the Champions league final united v chelsea, AND THAT HAD TENSION, i remember crying, screaming to joy all in 20 seconds
We got it this year let's go LA! Beck's final year just like he did in Madrid, will get us the title.
@BellezzaSurf Mano... eu n queria recordar-te isto, mas lembras-te de 2002? EUA x Portugal, 3-2? E olha que em termos de espectáculo, não sei se o campeonato deles n é superior ao nosso. Pelo menos os estádios estão sempre repletos. Há jogos do nosso campeonato em que o ambiente na bancada chega a ser deprimente. É certo que a MLS pode não ter o rigor táctico e técnico do futebol europeu, mas acho que como espectáculo desportivo, está a caminhar bem. Cumprimentos.
another question, which team represents Canada in the north american champions league if there is any?
yh of course
Cheers RSL!!!
Why was the game in Seattle?
I wish i can win the MLS Cup for Toronto FC one day!!
which two?
Wow, I forgot that kreis was the coach, what happened to him, he flopped everywhere he went( after leaving rsl)
Where is Keano?
@welcometourf you are definitly right! I wish the best for american football, sorry i mean soccer :) From France
@meisterkusen04 The average is about 20,000. But there are some that reach 40,000.
tough game
Oh whats that? A national Championship-Final? A Decision has to fall in a regular Season!
Hey i am from germany and do you know bayer leverkusen?^^and how many people are in your stadions?
@FalconBoxe You know a brit coined the term soccer, right?
It's not soccer, it's football.
I agree that Beckham deserved a yellow for the kick to Morales.
LA was just plain unlucky that night. I followed them the whole season and RSL winning it was bullcrap. Although they were the better team that night, LA had a way better season. LA had 2 injuries and really tired players. To me, LA was the 2009 Champs but congrats to RSL anyway... I really felt for Morales though...
why do they call "extra time" over time?
Deserved to win....
Nick Rimando!!!
That could have been Beckham's 1st tittle that year if it wasn't for Landon Donovan missing that penalty kick and Ricketts getting hurt.
6:15 Grabavoy went to the high school I go to right now
@FourLokoAddict510 Then why Mexico finished behind USA in the qualifieres for the 2010 World Cup? And in the finals, both teams fell in the last 16
damn it LA should have won, but real salt lake was amazing at this game they do deserve it
@FavreianVengeance "in sports'? you mean like the NFL who has the Super Bowl in a neutral field?
RSL prime days
who was shocked that FC Dallas defeated both these teams in one playoff
I'm from Germany we have the better league, clubs and player but i love the US commentator,:P, more emotions
Donovan is one of your best players. Hahaha he couldn't even handle Everton!
@Roarlover34
I'm American and I love thw Australian A-League
there adding a new team though which means free draft and anyone get get drafted
@Hitmonchan107 Well, It's called Football in the first place because it has it's roots to Rugby Football, So I don't see why it should be changed. The Europeans need to learn that there are several sports called "Football" and that name refers to whatever is the most popular in the area. Like Australia and NZ call Rugby Football "Football" and Association Football "Soccer. We call American Football "Football" and Association Football "Soccer". It's just localization.
@mmolaibonno The team the represents canada is the winner of their open cup. But I don't think they get past the prelims. To get into a group for Concacaf Champions league
