D.C. posts first shutout in 0-0 tie against Real

Soccer Betting Lines

06/05/2010 - Washington, D.C. (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Troy Perkins, who allowed 15 goals in his first six starts, posted his first shutout of the MLS season Saturday night as D.C. United ended Real Salt Lake's five-game win streak with a 0-0 draw at RFK Stadium.

Perkins, who has played seven times for the United States, was benched by Curt Onalfo earlier this season but played well in a mid-week U.S. Open Cup victory over Real Salt Lake and followed with his first result in MLS this season.

Although United (2-8-1) won its second match of the year last week with rookie goalie Bill Hamid making his fourth start, Perkins' performance in the 2-1 win over Real in overtime Wednesday earned another chance in league play.

Perkins, a former MLS Goalkeeper of the Year, wasn't very busy Saturday night and didn't have to make his first save until deep into stoppage time, when he denied Will Johnson. Perkins posted his 20th career MLS shutout.

United, which allowed 20 goals in its first 10 games, posted its first shutout of the season.

Nick Rimando made four saves for Real Salt Lake (6-3-2), which was shutout for just the second time this season. Rimando's shutout was his second this year.

Real hosts the Los Angeles Galaxy on Wednesday in its final match before the World Cup break. D.C. United visits Seattle Sounders FC on Thursday before the two-week break.
