Four Total Goals, Two Total Red Cards, and One Point Snagged in San Jose for the Colorado Rapids in a 2-2 Draw · Altitude Sports Radio Game Replays and Highlights

• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Ready to send this one in. Right footed ball. Underside
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: of the bar. It's a goal for San Jose. A
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: lot of guys, right? All by themselves. Reed Roberts takes
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: advantage of it and scores. It's too easy for Reed Roberts.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: It's too easy for the Earthquakes.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: I was just going to say before Buda hit the cross,
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: one of the league leaders, San Jose, in crosses. And
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: then goals off of crosses and the rapid zone just
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: allows Reed Roberts too much room to come in unmarked, untouched.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: Makes first contact just over Rob Holding's head and off
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: the underside of the crossbar. Nothing Nico Hansen can do.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: It's fantastic service from Timo Werner, which is exactly what
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: you expect. And this is another reason not to give
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: up set pieces, not to give up corner kicks. Can
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: you do whatever you can? I know this comes off
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: of a very good save from Nico Hansen, but that's
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: just a little too easy, Connor, in a big match
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: on a big night. Out-competed, out-jumped, and they find themselves
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: in a hole early.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: Since he rolls it to Frederick, he's able to turn
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: towards goal and knocks it to Whitaker. Morgan Whitaker into
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: the box.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: Morgan Whitaker.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Clinical. Pulls one back for Colorado. Boy, Morgan Whitaker in
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: that position. You just know he's going to find the
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: back of the net. Nothing Angus Gunn can do about it.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: And we're level at PayPal Park.
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: And it's a great assist from Wayne Frederick as he
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: picks the ball up on the left side. Dribbles it
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: across the field. And Morgan Whitaker just too much time
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: and space. What a first touch this is. to get
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: the wrong side of Vieira. And you said it, Connor,
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: as soon as he got past him, you knew it
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: was going to hit the back of the net. Left foot,
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: inside of the foot, just rolls it into the corner
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: past Angus Gunn. And a great response from the Rapids
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: to get back in this match at 1-1.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: And he may have said it in German, English, whatever.
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: But it's a 10-man Quakes. The Rapids at full strength.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Now you kind of wish you had Morgan Whitaker out there,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: but this is also why you waited for that. That
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: last window. If you're Matt Wells thinking about your substitutions,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: you still have Ted Kittupietro on the bench. You have
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: Alex Harris on the bench. You have some options. The
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Rapids have 18 minutes plus stoppage time. Georgie Munungu floats
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: one in back post. Yappie brings it down inside of
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: his right foot. Gets onto his right foot.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Shoots!
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: Darren Yappie! Off the bench, into the lead. Colorado immediately capitalize.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: 11 assists on the season. The Rapids, they conceded the
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: first goal on a corner in the first half. Ball
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: floats in, back post. Again.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: And it's just become the Achilles heel at this point.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Set pieces, set pieces.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Defending.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: All the way to the back post from Chakiris and Jasinski.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: Just not enough pressure from Miguel Navarro. It looks like
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: his closest to him. Nico Hansen tries to make himself big.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: He thought he could come out and claim it. But
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: it just keeps drifting on him all the way to
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: the back post. And it's a tap-in ultimately for Jasinski.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: And it's 2-2 with six and a half minutes to play.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: All right, that's it. That's the final whistle from PayPal Park.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: That is a plus one that you're going to take
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: if you're Matt Wells and his staff, knowing that Seattle
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: lost at home. You jump them in the standings, even
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: on points, but due to the tiebreakers, you go to seventh.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: You avoid the play in, say, eighth?
