Match Report: Rapids defeated at home to end dreams of MLS Cup return

Colorado Rapids’ record-breaking season came to an end on Sunday when Seattle Sounders FC won 1-0 at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park to lift the Western Conference Championship.

Pablo Mastroeni’s men were trailing 2-1 from the first leg so, when Jordan Morris’ scored in the 56th minute, it seemed to be a mortal blow to their hopes.

Rapids piled on the pressure in the final stages but Seattle held on to reach MLS Cup for the first time in their history.

It was a disappointing way for Mastroeni's side to end their campaign. However, they can hold their heads high after a superb regular season in which they set records for most points and most home wins.
