Lone goal scored
Luna scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-1 defeat versus FC Dallas. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 46th minute.
Analysis: Luna recorded the only goal for Salt Lake during the loss to Dallas on Saturday. His form has improved of late with four goals with an assist in just the last six appearances, creating 22 chances in that span.
Doubles lead on Saturday
Luna scored one goal to go with four shots (three on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-0 victory over Portland Timbers.
Analysis: Luna doubled the lead with an assist from Juan Sanabria following a great one-two play. He created an impressive 10 chances but ended the game without an assist, largely due to the brilliance of James Pantemis. Luna has now contributed to four goals in his last five games.
Two shots in loss
Luna registered two shots (zero on goal) and three chances created in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat against Inter Miami CF. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 58th minute.
Analysis: Luna took two shots but the bigger story was the the three chances he created. The volume was excellent throughout the match, but Luna and Real Salt Lake just couldn't seem to apply the finishing touch. He will need better finishing around him to get back among the goals in the coming weeks.
