Loan Watch: Castillo makes his second successive start for the Independence
Two early goals settled matters on Saturday as the Charlotte Independence (0-1-2) drew 1-1 at home to the Pittsburgh Riverhounds, leaving the Rapids’ USL affiliate still seeking their first win of the 2017 season.
On-loan Rapids’ defender Dennis Castillo made his second successive start for the Independence, while Academy goalkeeper, Kainoa Likewise, was again on the bench.
The visitors snatched the lead after just two minutes. Former Colorado Rapids central defender, Joseph Greenspan, tallied an assist on a Kay Banjo goal for the Riverhounds. Greenspan, on loan from Minnesota United FC, also spent time on loan at the Independence when with the Rapids.
