Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Diego Luna scored once and ran the midfield as Real Salt Lake thrashed Burnley 4-1 in a Club Friendly that was far more one-sided than the dead-even possession split suggests. Sergi Solans bagged a brace and Zavier Gozo also found the net, giving the MLS side a comfortable victory that will please their coaching staff even if no competitive fixture awaits.

The match was goalless until first-half stoppage time, when Solans struck to send Real Salt Lake in ahead. Burnley equalised ten minutes after the restart through Florentino Luís, but parity lasted only seven minutes before Gozo restored the home lead. Solans added a second in the 73rd minute, and Luna capped a dominant second-half display with a goal nine minutes from time to seal the rout.

Possession was split exactly at 50% each, but Real Salt Lake took five more corners than Burnley’s four and created the clearer chances, outplaying their Premier League opponents on efficiency. Luna was the standout with a 9.74 rating from his midfield berth, contributing a goal in a commanding all-round performance. CheckLive’s model clearly favoured Real Salt Lake and the result confirmed that forecast, with no live signals contradicting the read. No next fixture is scheduled.
