Rapids comeback effort falls short: Tijuana gets the 2-1 win

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
He's clearly left footed. Not enough pressure from either Jackson Travis.
He has Wayne Frederick coming back to support defensively, and
I think the shot just kind of cut them off
guard Zach Stefan doing a good job of paying attention though.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Maura again headed towards the post, but out and then
off the ounder side of the bar. In so many
corners conceded for Colorado and they finally come back to
bite and it's Frank Boya.

Speaker 1 (00:38):
Just uses his physical nature and his size to get
it on the end of the original corner kick. It
might have even been Gomez who makes first contact, but
the ball goes off the post straight back to Boya
and he's first to it and knocks it in up
off the crossbar.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
And in cause then he ate up started the match
against the Galaxy. He wears the ten shirt Prosiado Elevens.
Rosenberry lofts it long looking for Harris. Harris gets pushed
to the ground from the top of the head. No,
how can that be? He just got grabbed. I don't understand.

(01:25):
But the Rapids get it back. Larross finds Bassett, Bassett
out wide to Vines, Vines over to Bassett, Bassett turns
away from goal, rolls it back to Loras, tries Bassett again,
Boya defending out wide to the left side. Travis rolls
it forward for Bassett. Bassett turns away from the inline,

(01:47):
doesn't want to get trapped in at the corner, shuffles
to his right. Good defending there by. Tijuana Rabbits go
back to Murphy the center circle. Sixty third minute, one nil.
Tijuana Max su able to roll it forward for Avajo.
Nevajo steps around a couple defenders. Novajo turns towards goal
shot it is saved by Rodriguez. Another big save from

(02:10):
the goalkeeper for Tijuana. He has been awesome tonight, to
the chagrin of the Rapids.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
He has made a couple of big saves. We haven't
seen him test it in a little while, though. It's
refreshing to see a shot on target there and making
him have to forcing him into a save just to
like for like change for Tijuana.

Speaker 2 (02:34):
Laurns trying to chase Bulonko out wide on the left
side into the eighteen. Rosenberry defending, rolls into the top
of the eighteen save, made follow up punch home two nail. Tijuana.
Zach Stephen is calling for an off side. I don't
know he's gonna get it here. I don't think so.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
And it's our Siga might have been his first touch
of the matches. Domingo Blanco gets the ball wide on
the left side, cuts in on his right foot.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
Why he'll have been cutting back to the penalty spot
and knocked out by Tijuana. Yeah, rolls it over to Travis. Travis,
back to Rosenberry. Rosenberry coming downhill with some force, rolls
it over to Laura's Laraz. It's gonna be an old goal.
It's two one seventy fourth minute, headed into the back

(03:32):
of the net. Bay Club Tijuana against themselves.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
It's a good impact, good first impression from Alex Harris.
I know he doesn't end up crossing the ball. It's
Oliver Lauras, but Alex Harris makes a good run as well.
It is the second one that he's made. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:53):
It's Poroso has Bassett ten yards in front of Laura's
Laaras waiting for him one to get lined up, ready
to thunder end towards the eighteen yard area.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Laaz right foot whips it along. It bounces past everybody.
It takes a touch goes out for a corner on
the far side, Cole Bassett sprinting over. Zach Stefan is
gonna come up and join the attack. The Rapids need
a goal, trailing two to one deep in the second half.

(04:26):
Stop it shine, left arm up, basket right football in
it's headed up our. Sieguy's gonna whip it up. The
pitch throw in coming for Colorado. Final whistle. Tijuana wins
two to one. The Rapids conceded twice, got one back,
