COMMERCE CITY, Colo. - In an alternate universe, Darren Yapi scored a hattrick to open his MLS account. The Colorado Rapids hosted Sporting KC on Saturday night for their home opener of the 2023 MLS season. It was a good performance, but a disappointing result on a freezing night at the Richard.
The Pids started well. Just like at Seattle, Yapi could have scored moments in. Cole Bassett fed a through ball to the striker who ran in on goal John Pulskamp came off his line and made a point blank save. He had another great chance minutes later, stretching out to send the ball wide of goal.
