RAPIDS: 1-0 loss to Dallas increases losing streak to 4
Comments 0 | Recommend 0COMMERCE CITY -- Juan Toja scored his fourth goal of the year to give FC Dallas a 1-0 win over the Colorado Rapids on Saturday in Commerce City.
Toja had a clear look at the net after Clarence Goodson’s initial shot was saved by Rapids goalkeeper Bouna Coundoul. Coundoul was prone when the ball skittered to his right where Toja waited just feet from the net.
It was one of the rare chances for the Hoops in the match, but it was all they needed as the FC Dallas defense — which disappeared in a 4-0 loss to Toronto on Sunday — kept a number of balls from goalkeeper Dario Sala.
After a four-game unbeaten streak to close out May, Colorado has lost four straight in June.
“We have to repair this,” said Colorado head coach Fernando Clavijo, whose team fell 10 points behind the Western Conference leader. “Why wait until somebody knocks you around to react? For some reason we didn’t do it.”
