CARSON, Calif. -- Joao Plata scored in the 80th minute, Nick Rimando stopped Robbie Keanes penalty kick in stoppage time and Real Salt Lake opened with a 1-0 victory over the Los Angeles Galaxy on Saturday night in Jeff Cassars head coaching debut for the Utah club. "Feels great," said Cassar, a long-time Real Salt Lake assistant coach who took charge after Jason Kreis left to become head coach at New York City FC, which is aiming for a 2015 inaugural season. "What Im most excited about is the fight that the team had. We came in at halftime and just said, Relax, 0-0, exactly where we want to be, and the energy level, the effort, in the second half was just fantastic." Plata, open in the middle of the Galaxy box, scored off Kyle Beckermans pass four minutes after Luke Mulhollands apparent goal was ruled offside. Keane, the Galaxy captain, had a chance to tie the score in the 93rd minute after Tony Beltran undercut Rob Friend as he leaped for a long ball from Omar Gonzalez. Rimando, who included several spectacular stops among his nine saves, dived to his right to deny Keane at the post. "Today was one of those days the ball seemed a little bigger," Rimando said. "I knew what Keane was going to do. He likes to stutterstep, but I stood my ground and just reacted." Keane hit the right post and Landon Donovan was denied on a 1-on-1 opportunity in the first half for Los Angeles, which had a 27-9 advantage in shots. "We had some good chances, we didnt finish any of our chances, and the penalty at the end of the game," Galaxy coach Bruce Arena said. "What can you say? Those are wasted chances. We should have gotten at least a point out of this game." The game was a rematch of a Western Conference semifinal series last year that was one by RSL, which fell to Sporting Kansas City in the MLS Cup final. Stitched College Jerseys .

Having already beaten one Frenchman in the shape of Pierre-Hugues Herbert, it is another for Murray in the last 16 and a first career meeting with Paire.After a run to the semi-final in Marseille in February, Paire came into the event with just one win in his last four matches but has found form to beat Portugals Joao Sousa in the second round having seen off Inigo Cervantes in the first. Murray has never met Paire before but will be wary of his clay court threat, two of the Frenchmans four ATP finals have been on the red dirt including his only title in Sweden in 2015. Murrays Masters route We plot the Brits route to the final Roger Federer meets world number 17 Roberto Bautista Agut, a two-time winner on tour this year but Federer has a 100% record in their meetings having won all four previous encounters.The Swiss ace could be vulnerable with this his first event since returning from a knee injury and stomach illness, and his Spanish opponent is a lively threat.Plenty of French interest for the Country Club fans with five in singles action.Number four seed and 2014 champion Stan Wawrinka meets 15th seed Gilles Simon and there is an all-French affair with Jo-Wilfried Tsonga up against Lucas Pouille.Novak Djokovics conquerer Jiri Vesely meets another home favourite in the shape of Gael Monfils and 11th seed David Goffin plays Marcel Granollers.

Surprise in storeDamir Dzumhur is making a habit of upsetting the big boys, far better than his ranking of 99 suggests, and is more than capable of causing problems for Milos Raonic in their third round encounter, having already beaten Tomas Berdych this week.The pair met in the last 16 in Miami where Raonic ended the Bosnians run in straight sets but Dzumhur had already seen off Rafa Nadal in Florida and will be hopeful of progress.Dzumhur had to qualify for this weeks event which means he has clay-court matches under his belt and adds to his threat while Raonics big serve should earn him the sought of cheap points that may be enough to squeeze through.In case you missed it Novak Djokovic lost, I repeat the world number one, defending champion and previously unbeaten Novak Djokovic was beaten by Czech world number 55 Jiri Vesely.You can watch all the action from Monte Carlo, live on Sky Sports 1 from 9.30am on Thursday morning.By purchasing a Sky Sports Day Pass for £6.99 or Sky Sports Week Pass for £10.99, you can enjoy access to all seven Sky Sports channels and watch on a TV with a NOW TV Box or on a range of devices.
