Given the Colorado Rapids’ recent run of form, number of games in the last week, and being on the road, I was afraid things might not go well tonight. But at the very least, I was hoping it wouldn’t be a complete train wreck.
Anthony Hudson starting with a 5-4-1 and the Rapids had to fight off a fairly consistent attack. Ten minutes into the game, Houston had 84% possession and they didn’t let up until Tomás Martínez put in their first goal in the 31st minute. A few minutes later, Danny Wilson had an errant pass that went right to Houston.
