The Crew gave up an early goal to Colorado, but Lucas Zelarayán scored once and had two assists to lead the Crew past the Rapids in a 3-2 win.
It was an ugly start to the game for the Crew, as the Rapids took the lead in the ninth minute, but the Crew responded with a goal from midfielder Lucas Zelarayán in the 37th minute and scored twice more in the second half to win 3-2.
Conceding early played directly into the Rapids' game plan, which was to sit behind the ball and strike on the counter-attack when they were able. It took the Crew nearly 15 minutes to find their footing again, and another 10-plus minutes after that to break through with a goal. "We made a mistake and got punished," Nancy said."But the fact that they stayed on the task, they were able to score a nice goal. This is good for the mind. After that, they were able to settle a bit and we adjusted certain things during the halftime in terms of tactical elements. After that, second half, with a lot of humility, I knew that we were going the right direction."
But in the 62nd minute, the Crew's fourth corner of the second half, they found the breakthrough goal. Zelarayán's service sailed across the box to Zawadzki waiting on the back post, and he headed it past goalkeeper Marko Ilic for the Crew's first lead of the game.
