The Colorado Rapids have 29 games left in the regular season, but Rapids supporters find themselves in a position familiar to 2017 and 2018. Emotions are running high, as was evident with many supporters in the stands and on social media. There was something about this match that really climbed under the skin of many. The Rapids played abysmally at home against a formidable (and undefeated) Houston Dynamo team, losing 4-1 in a match that was out of reach early in the first half.
This Rapid Fire edition has only one main takeaway: Coaching and preparation was the primary problem against Houston, both leading up to the game and the lack of adjustments on the left side of the defensive in taking care of El Pantera, Houston’s Alberth Elis.
