About this print

Real Salt Lake reached the playoffs on the last day of the season with a losing record and finished as champions. Robbie Findley's goal canceled out Mike Magee's for the LA Galaxy, and in Seattle the 1-1 draw went to a shootout that Real Salt Lake won 5-4 in the seventh round. Nick Rimando made two saves and was MVP.

About Champs Ring prints

Champs Ring is the original radial sports bracket. Hyperakt's Deroy Peraza created it for the 2010 World Cup, and it went on to appear in more than a hundred publications and in design exhibitions in France and Spain. Every print shows one season's playoffs as rings of elimination rounds, with the champion at the center.
