The Colorado Rapids lost to Sporting Kansas City 3-2 in their second match in Group D, virtually eliminating the Rapids from advancing to the knockout round. For Colorado supporters, this game was filled with frustration after a solid first half. Clearly, the Burgundy Boys had better form, a better tactical game plan, and were more organized in the back. Supporters were curious to see Danny Wilson starting on the backline (nothing personal to Wilson, mind you) rather than former Philadelphia Union defender Auston Trusty, but things seemed to start off well enough.
