WHO: Revolution at Colorado Rapids
WHERE: Dick’s Sporting Goods Park, Commerce City, CO
WHEN: 9 p.m.
TV/RADIO: NBC Sports Boston/WBZ-FM 98.5/1260 AM Portuguese
WHAT’S UP: Match Day 19 sees the Revs take on Colorado on the nation’s birthday, and New England will hope to continue its solid run of form against Western Conference opposition. Of course, the Rapids are looking to do the same against the Revolution, as Colorado is unbeaten in its last seven.
Sweens here at the Farm. Dinner -- Angus steak in a Teryaki marinade, grilled potatoes with salt, pepper, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a little shredded mozzarella, and stir-fried veggies -- has been consumed, and the coffee is poured. The starting lineups and benches are live, and your match notes are below.
After an hour-long weather delay -- hail in Commerce City -- we are underway.
Revs are in the Colonial kit on Independence Day with the home navy blue shorts. Colorado in the burgandy. Periodic updates to follow.
2' Deep cross by Rosenberry goes to Kamara, gets his noggin, goes wide.
3' First corner of the match goes to the Revolution.
5' Shinyashiki with a volley, goes long.
6' Farrell with a giveaway and the Rapids play a long ball from Rubio to Kamara... Farrell gets back to kick it away, concedes the corner.
8' Nice high line of contention for the Revs... not really a press, but just letting the Rapids know they're there.
8' GOAL REVOLUTION, and that's Teal Bunbury's 50th career league goal! 1-0 to the Revs as Bunbury takes Castillo's volley off his chest, and he chips Howard. Key there: Agudelo's hold-up play.
