Colorado Rapids streak ends
The Colorado Rapids surprisingly fell flat on Saturday, a 3-0 loss at Real Salt Late a bit of a shock given their recent form.
An own goal by Rapids goalkeeper William Yarbrough in the 14th minute set the tone for a frustrating night for the Rapids. Unbeaten in their last four games, the Rapids then conceded a 30th minute goal from Bobby Wood, essentially dooming them to the road loss.
