Everyone likes a good upset. Well, everyone except for maybe the Colorado Rapids. On Tuesday night the Rapids squelched the Cinderella aspirations of Oklahoma Energy F.C. by making up a two goal deficit en route to their 3-2 win in the fourth round of the U.S. Open Cup.
The Energy kick-started the scoring with two goals in the first half from Daniel Gonzalez (38′) and Philip Rasmussen (45+1′). But the Rapids came in the second half with a flurry of goals from Dominique Badji (49′), Eric Miller (66′) and Dennis Castillo (89′).
