On April 9th, the Colorado Rapids’ defense had a rare defensive mix-up which allowed Joao Plata to slip in a goal unopposed in the 72nd minute giving Real Salt Lake a 1-0 victory. That night in Utah was the last time the Rapids lost an MLS match.
To put that in perspective, when Pablo Mastroeni’s side faces off with New York City Football Club Saturday at Yankee Stadium, it will mark 113 days without a loss. That translates to 2,712 hours, 162,720 minutes, or if you want to look at it in terms of the league season, beginning March 6th, 77% of the MLS calendar to date.
