SANDY, Utah (AP) — Andy Williams scored on a free kick in the 47th minute and Fabian Espindola added a goal in the final minute of stoppage time to lift Real Salt Lake to a 2-0 victory over FC Dallas on Saturday night.

Salt Lake (8-3-6) extended its unbeaten streak to 2-0-4. Dallas (10-5-4) had won three straight. The two teams will meet again on Tuesday night in Dallas in the quarterfinals of the U.S. Open Cup.

Williams scored just his second goal of the season when he lobbed a shot over a defensive wall on a free kick restart. The ball slipped out of the left glove of Dallas goalkeeper Kevin Hartman and trickled across the end line.

Espindola sealed the win when he sent a shot past Hartman in the final minute of stoppage time.
