    Match like this really makes you miss the way Morales was able to set the pace and maintain positive possession, having said that we have looked a bit better in the last 5 minutes.

    Bofo has gotten progressively worse as the game has proceeded. Velazco?

    Wtf has happened from last week, just booting the ball wide and then blasting it to nobody. Need to work it, break down this condensed defense.

    Agreed, but not last year's Javi. The old one.

    Then again, even the vintage Javi might look pretty crap with the cast of characters we have out there right now.

    This game seems like it has been going for about 750 minutes instead of 75. Ugh.

    I thought last year's Javi was the old one. We want the younger one.

    Without another scoring threat like Plata on the pitch, Yura has been non existent. Personally I am good with our young midfield and backline. But this team needs a target striker to give Yura some space.

    We look soooooo slow, just molasses slow, and sloppy as ******** when we actually get the ball forward.

    Well, it's a pretty ugly tie, but Colorado has been pretty poor this game, too.

    Funny how one stupid foul can change a game in a moment.

    We need to bring Lennon on full time. Dude needs to not go back to England.

    Man do I enjoy having Brooks Lennon on the squad. He's been the only good player all 90 minutes, and that goal was beautiful.

    No kidding. He probably likes playing full time as opposed to reserve squad action in England.

    HAHA WOW!
    I had totally given up on this game and somehow we stole all 3 points.
    Completely underserved but it's against Colorado so that's just icing on the cake.

    And his Ronaldo goal celebration was pretty good also.

    God, that was 84 minutes of dreadful soccer by both sides, cRapids doing their best to set the game back 50 years with their anti-football approach and RSL looking like they didn't even know what a soccer ball was. Then....a stupid, utterly STUPID foul by the cRapids, a somewhat unlucky red card hand ball, and a pk in the next 30 seconds and the whole game is turned on its head. cRapids decide they actually want to play real soccer and Lennon steals the show.

    The saying goes "good teams find ways to win games they shouldn't", I hope we can look back on a game like this and say "RSL was just finding a way to steal a game they shouldn't have on the way to becoming a good team".

    So at this point Yura is on pace to score 16 goals during this regular season!
