Match Report: Rapids clinch semifinal spot with a history-making win over the Dynamo

Records tumbled and history was re-written at BBVA Compass Stadium on Saturday night, as the Colorado Rapids defeated Houston Dynamo 3-2.

In claiming only their second-ever victory in Houston, the Rapids guaranteed at least a second place finish in the Western Conference, which is the highest they have ever managed.

The win took the Rapids to 54 points, setting a new highest points tally and a best points-per-game average for a season.

And in downing the Dynamo, the Colorado Rapids are now just two points behind league-leading FC Dallas, but still have a game in hand, which is the home game against San Jose Earthquakes this coming Thursday (TICKETS).
