There will be fireworks . . . after the match. 1543614598527348738 is not a valid tweet id Looks like Price is out as well as Yarbrough and Irwin. So Abe Rodriguez will get his first MLS start in goal. And with Price out Acosta will start as a deep midfielder. Abubakar will also be back after serving his suspension. 1543657182666768384 is not a valid tweet id
Boy, does this one not look good. Being I’ve been wrong nearly every game this season, 2-1 win. Rubio and Kaye score.
1-1 draw, goal by Rubio. I don't think home cooking gets the Rapids over the hump missing Price and Yarbrough. The 4th of July buzz will keep us in the game and we'll be able to get a point, but not the full three we need. Rubio will find the goal after Austin scores to take the lead first. http://view-from-the-couch.blogspot.com/2022/07/colorado-tries-to-bounce-back-in-annual.html
Let’s see. Our last 4th of July win was in 2015 against Vancouver in a 2-1 victory with goals by Vicente Sanchez and Kevin Doyle. Since then, we are 0-3-2, being out scored 8-4. Those four goals coming from Dom Badji, Sam Nicholson, Diego Rubio, Michael Barrios in 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2021 respectively. The Rapids are currently 12th in the west and boast a -4 goal differential. Austin is 2nd in the West (and 3rd in the league) on points and is cruising with a +12 differential. So, I’m gonna go against the grain and say we win 2-1 tonight. Abe Rodriguez will be the man of the match and Max scores the game winner in the 92nd minute. Why? Because that would be the most Rapids thing that I could think of that could come of this game. I think anything else that happens tonight would be more likely than this so yeah. That’s what I’m rolling with.
That little chip by Lewis….. money! Can we move Lalas to #9 with that finish. Beautiful! Is that goal on Wilson or Trusty or both? Wilson should have headed it away even if Trusty called him off. Cardinal sin.
It was Trusty, and to a lesser extent Kaye, who failed to play the ball on that one. On both goals Trusty failed to make a play. There's an excuse for the first but not for the second. Enjoy wherever Arsenal sends you Auston, because mentally you're already there.
Trusty has been awful recently. I get it….. shit ton on his mind like moving across the pond, where he’ll be loaned… It’s all nerve wrecking. It has to be. But you’d like to think that a 90-minute match would be a distraction for all that personal stuff. Guess not. I hate seeing him leave on a shit run of form but….. we cannot afford to have him checked out - consciously or sub-consciously. Not the way our season has panned out. Bye-bye Trusty,
Two jumps from two center backs and it’s 2-0 for the good guys. Instead it’s 2-2. Hey, this is Rapids soccer! Hold on to your butts everyone
3-2 Austin and this one isn't coming back. Leaving Urruti unmarked in the box is a recipe for disaster.
I am saving that for the season catch-all thread. I can’t believe I’m wasting vacation time to watch this game. Hawaii is waymore beautiful that this shit.
Dude, no. Close the stream and go find some great food with a view. Where are you at? (Of course I'm spending my anniversary watching this, so who am I to talk?)
Wailea in Maui. Love it here. Before COVID we’d come nearly every year. First time post-COVID. While still gorgeous much of the island is still ravaged by draught. Lots of yellow and brown. To fair…. I do have a beer in hand in our patio. overlooking the ocean with the game on the iPad.
