Minnesota (6-6-7) is winless in eight straight.

Callender, near the penalty spot, played an arcing ball well beyond midfield. Marcus Caldeira flicked a header from about 35 yards out to Pereyra, who chipped in a first-touch finish from a couple steps inside the penalty box. It was the 28-year-old Callender’s first career goal contribution in MLS.

Sergi Solans scored for the second consecutive game to give RSL (8-6-4) a 1-0 lead in the 82nd minute. After Minnesota failed a clearance attempt, Diego Luna flicked a header ahead to Solans, who won the ball from defender Michael Boxall and slipped a rising shot into the net.

Solans, a 23-year-old rookie, has eight goals and three assists this season.
