FC DallasvsColorado Rapids
DAL 2/COL 1
Things to say
FC Dallas beat Colorado 2-1 at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
01
Dallas went into Colorado and nicked it 2-1. Rapids had the run of play but couldn't find the second goal. Classic road win.
02
key player
Sirois was the difference — four saves to keep Dallas in it. Man of the match, easy.
03
hot take
Colorado are flat-out wasteful. Six shots from Aaronson and one goal to show for it? That's a team headed nowhere.
04
deep cut
Dallas won this with 34 accurate passes from Shaq Moore. They didn't even want the ball and still walked out with three points.
05
exit
Anyway, Rapids need to sort it out before the next one — can't keep gifting points at home.
The recap
Dallas snuck out of Commerce City with a 2-1 win, and honestly Colorado will be kicking themselves over this one. The Rapids ran the game — Aaronson was firing shots all night, Herrington was spraying passes — but Dallas keeper Jonathan Sirois stood on his head with four big saves to keep them in it.
Logan Farrington only got two shots off the whole match and still found the net, which tells you everything about how clinical Dallas were on the counter. Rough night for the home side; they did everything but actually win it.
