On bench for RSL match
Desler (groin) is on the bench Saturday against Real Salt Lake.
ANALYSIS
Desler has been included in the match squad for the first time this year after missing the previous three weeks due to his injury. He was a regular starter at the end of last season, operating mostly on the right flank. He'll be a solid alternative to Jon Gallagher at right-back for the rest of the season.
