Academy Update: Senior teams keep three clean sheets against Real Colorado
The weekend’s games at home to Real Colorado may have been short on goals, but they were not without incident for the Rapids’ Development Academy.
All three senior sides kept clean sheets, though both the U-18/19s and U-16/17s were held scoreless by their neighbors. The U-16/17s also played out the final 23 minutes with 10 men after Adan Perez was dismissed for a second caution.
The U-15s also ended a man down, but they were already 3-0 up when Brandon Casales saw red for a second yellow. Casales had earlier scored the game’s third goal, following strikes from Maclovio Swett and Ethan Ballek. Ballek would add a fourth for the Rapids in the latter stages.
