Save of the Week

Real Salt Lake's Nick Rimando takes home Save of the Week honors for palming free kick out of top corner

Nick Rimando

Make it three for four for Real Salt Lake goalkeeper Nick Rimando.


The veteran claimed the Week 15 Save of the Week award with a sprawling intervention of a Jose Villarreal free kick that looked destined for the top corner. Nearly 45 percent of voters cast their ballot in favor of the RSL and USMNT netminder in a week chock full of standout saves.


It's Rimando's fourth Save of the Week honor of 2013 and the third for Real Salt Lake, who also had defender Nat Borchers emerge as a winner in Week 4. That total puts Rimando just one weekly award behind Portland's Donovan Ricketts, who looked to be running away from the pack early in the season.
