#COLvHOU: Breakdown of key plays

The Colorado Rapids fell to the Houston Dynamo 4-1 on Saturday night, and it sure wasn’t pretty. Overall, they seemed to be outplayed, out-coached, and out-manned, so let’s take a look at what happened.

Houston goes up 1-0 early (4’)

This first goal is just too easy. Houston is able to get on to the counterattack, and the Rapids are stuck with a back three. The Dynamo player initially goes at Serna in an effort to open up space on the right. He then turns inside, so Dillon Serna starts to let Tommy Smith take over.
