While the sun did not shine at Citi Field in New York, the Colorado Rapids sure did in a bounce-back road outing against New York City FC.
Just a week after dropping a road match against FC Cincinnati, the Rapids pitched a clean sheet to finish their road trip with a 2-0 against one of the hottest teams in the MLS.
First was a wonderful counterattack spurred by Moïse Bombito, who won possession and found Kévin Cabral on the long ball. Cabral showed nice holdup play as he waited for an overlapping run from Bassett on the right side of NYCFC’s penalty box. Once he arrived, he put in a cross which wasn’t all that convincing, but Navarro chested it down from about 15 yards out, took a touch and rifled a shot to the side netting of the far post.
“Obviously, this is a new project, but I think what’s really exciting is that we’re working really hard to play a certain system that has been new to a lot of players,” Fernandez said. “Obviously, it takes time, but now in recent games, you can see the qualities of the player we have, … who are getting more comfortable with the system.”On a rainy day in New York, even when the downpour couldn’t put out some of the fires in the Rapids’ defensive third, Bombito came through with an extinguisher.
“My coaches work hard with him,” Armas said. “And the culture in that back line is tremendous. He’s understanding how to become a real pro and some of the things to value. Then you add in Zack Steffen who keeps these guys on it. Mihailovic was limited at practice in the past week and his status is still unknown, though his participation in training is encouraging.Colorado Rapids extend unbeaten streak to four with win over FC Dallas
