What We Learned: RSL getting the 4-3-3 right

It is easy to clamour for reform when things aren't going well, but RSL has stuck to their guns and has started to understand the 4-3-3 system more and more. With yet another match under their belts, let's discuss what RSL is getting right.

Kyle Beckerman might have shown some real grit and talent in some ways against the dominating Revs.

Contrary to popular belief, there are signs of life in the Claret-and-Cobalt's offense. In this final installment of the "What we learned" from Vancouver series, we will look at the offensive performance of RSL during the last match.

What we learned: Refs change match landscapes
