Once again, an opposition put matters away late as Colorado (2-3-2) lose their first match at home in 2018, this time to Orlando City SC (5-2-1) to the tune of 2-1.
Colorado looked strong, taking the majority of the possession in the first 30 minutes. The quickness and pressure the Rapids used in the first third of the game produced three corners, with one corner almost producing goal number one, but Tommy Smith’s header came off the post and the threat was averted. Dominique Badji put away his sixth goal of 2018 (he had nine in all of 2017) in the 25th minute on a beautiful over-the-top assist from Enzo Martinez.
