A last-gasp winner from Fabian Espindola gave Real Salt Lake a 1-0 win over the Colorado Rapids on Wednesday, taking them three points clear of their opponents at the top of the Western Conference.

The goal also ensured Salt Lake remained the only team in Major League Soccer with a 100 per cent record, with four wins from four.

Elsewhere, Los Angeles Galaxy hit the bar twice but could not find the net as they drew 0-0 with Toronto FC.
