The Rapids won in penalties, 4-3, after a 1-all tie in regulation.
If not for Rafael Navarro’s first goal in eight games in the last minute of second-half stoppage time, the Colorado Rapids’ exit from Leagues Cup would have rested on a lengthy, controversial reversal of an offside call.At first glance, Club León’s Iván Moreno was called offside in the buildup of a play on a breakaway. Rapids keeper Zack Steffen saved Moreno’s 1-on-1 shot, but the ball bounced off the post and onto Edgar Guerra’s feet for an easy tap-in in the 79th minute.
Then Navarro struck in the 90+7th minute when Cole Bassett found Keegan Rosenberry, who flicked the ball onto a wide open Navarro for a tap-in header. Zack Steffen came up with the shootout’s first save on Leon’s third attempt and won it with a save on León’s final attempt. With six saves in regulation, Steffen was easily the Rapids’ best player on the night.
