The Colorado Rapids are in an absolute mess. There is no other way to put it.
Their latest embarrassment came on Saturday as New York City FC carved through them with painful regularity and ease, sauntering to a 4-0 win that could have been a basketball score had Patrick Vieira’s side shown any element of ruthlessness or clinical nature in front of goal. It was a pitiful effort.
That disastrous display means that the Rapids are enduring a run of five successive defeats, scoring just two goals in those five games and conceding less than two in just one match.
