Salt Lake's season was highlighted by reaching the 2011 CONCACAF Champions League Finals, becoming the first American soccer club to reach the final of the newly designed CONCACAF Champions League, as well as the first non-Mexican club to reach the finals. Including the predecessor tournament, the Champions' Cup, it was the first time in 11 years an American club reached the North American club final, the last being Los Angeles Galaxy. Additionally, Salt Lake finished third place in both the Western Conference and overall MLS tables during the regular season, thus earning a berth into the 2012–13 CONCACAF Champions League. In the 2011 MLS Cup Playoffs, Salt Lake reached the Western Conference Final, but fell to eventual MLS Cup champions, Los Angeles Galaxy. Salt Lake also reached the quarterfinals of the 2011 U.S. Open Cup before falling to eventual semifinalists, FC Dallas. Background 2010 Real Salt Lake season Review November Towards the end of November 2010, Major League Soccer held its Expansion Draft for the arrivals of Portland Timbers and Vancouver Whitecaps FC. Among Salt Lake's unprotected players for the draft, Portland selected two: Robbie Findley and David Horst.http://www.thecrew.com/news/2010/11/mls-releases-unprotected-list-expansion-draft MLS releases unprotected list for Expansion Draft | Columbus Crew Thecrew.com 2010-11-22 2012-03-27 Findley, though, following an expired contract with the Royals, declared his intentions to play overseas, with rumors circulating about him possibly playing for Danish Superliga clubs Brøndby and Randers, Premier League club Wolverhampton, even Championship club Nottingham Forest. On November 24, Randers denied rumors that Findley was on trial with the club.http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/danish-side-randers-deny-reports-about-findley Danish side Randers deny reports about Findley Greg Seitzer November 25, 2010 MLSSoccer.com November 28, 2010 Subsequent to the expansion draft, the Royals made a trade with the Timbers to bring in Salvadorian Arturo Alvarez, whom previously played his club soccer for San Jose Earthquakes,http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/portland-trade-alvarez-rsl-draft-pick Portland trade Alvarez to RSL for draft pick November 25, 2010 MLSSoccer.com November 28, 2010 in return for allocation money and draft picks.

Findley signed with Forest on December 23. The contract was reported to be for 2.5 years through the end of the 2012-13 English football season. January The club met in late January to begin preparations for the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinal vs. Columbus on February 22. February Salt Lake spent the month of February in preparations for their Champions League semifinal. Prior to the match, they played two final tune up games against Vancouver Whitecaps FC and Chivas USA. In their quarterfinal away fixture, in the frigid cold, 25 degrees, RSL drew Columbus 0-0. March April Salt Lake opened April with a semifinal fixture on the road to Saprissa. The match, played on April 5, ended in a 2–1 victory for Saprissa, although Salt Lake would win 3–2 on aggregate, secured by Jamison Olave's half volley in the 71st minute of play. The win booked Salt Lake a spot in the Champions League finals, in which they became the first American team to make the finals under the current format, as well as the first American team to make the finals of a CONCACAF club tournament since Los Angeles Galaxy in 2000. On April 6, it was learned that Salt Lake would be playing Monterrey of Mexico in the Champions League finals, after Monterrey pulled off a 2–1 aggregate win over Cruz Azul. On April 9, the club would return to league play, flying out to Boston to take on New England Revolution. Because of the Champions League match three days earlier, many first team players rested this weekend and mainly a team composed of reserves and a few starters played in the game. In spite of this, Salt Lake was able to pull off a 2–0 win at New England, giving them a perfect 3-0-0 record. Following the New England match, the club had another mid-week fixture against Rocky Mountain rivals, Colorado Rapids. Due to the club's recent success in 2011, the match was expected to be hotly contested. A crowd of nearly 15,500 showed up for the mid-week game as Salt Lake pulled off a controversial, late goal in injury time. The goal was scored by Fabián Espíndola.Garlarcep Ives Late Espindola winner lifts RSL past Colorado http://www.soccerbyives.net/soccer_by_ives/2011/04/late-espindola-winner-lifts-rsl-past-colorado.html 20 April 2011 Soccer By Ives 14 April 2011 Originally, Salt Lake was to host Philadelphia Union on April 23, but the Union voluntarily rescheduled their match to September 3.

Salt Lake found themselves trailing within the first 20 minutes of play, following a defensive mishap that led to a loose ball tapped in by Aldo de Nigris. The Claret and Cobalt would draw level in the 35th minute of play, thanks to a header off of Nat Borchers from a Javier Morales set piece, leading to a 1-1 scoreline at halftime. In the second half of play, a 62nd minute handball from Salt Lake defender Jamison Olave consequently led to a penalty kick for Los Rayados. Chilean international Humberto Suazo converted the penalty, regaining the lead for Monterrey, 2–1. In the dying minutes of the match, Salt Lake midfielder, Morales, made two cutbacks over Monterrey defenders Sergio Pérez and Neri Cardozo to score the equalizer, leading to a final scoreline of 2-2.Freedman Jonah Late Morales stunner gives RSL 2-2 draw at Monterrey http://www.mlssoccer.com/matchcenter-recap/late-morales-stunner-gives-rsl-2-2-draw-monterrey 21 April 2011 MLSSoccer.com 21 April 2011 The draw against Monterrey resulted in only the fourth time in history that an American soccer club had tied a Mexican opponent on Mexican soil.Gleba Scott Late strike lifts RSL to 2-2 draw with Monterrey http://www.concacaf.com/page/CL/NewsDetail/0,,12813~2343160,00.html 20 April 2011 CONCACAF 20 April 2011 https://web.archive.org/web/20110424114138/http://www.concacaf.com/page/CL/NewsDetail/0,,12813~2343160,00.html 24 April 2011 The previous time was when D.C.

The allocation ranking is the mechanism used to determine which MLS club has first priority to acquire a U.S. National Team player who signs with MLS after playing abroad, or a former MLS player who returns to the league after having gone to a club abroad for a transfer fee. A ranking can be traded, provided that part of the compensation received in return is another club's ranking.http://www.mlssoccer.com/2011-mls-roster-rules 2011 MLS Roster Rules | Major League Soccer Mlssoccer.com 2012-03-27 https://web.archive.org/web/20110430101816/http://www.mlssoccer.com/2011-mls-roster-rules 2011-04-30 International roster spots Real Salt Lake possesses 6 international roster spots.
