Minnesota isn't in Canada but close enough. Tomorrow they're at DSG Park as the opposition for a Rapids team hoping to bounce back from that epic collapse in Sandy. And Minnesota is without Reynoso, maybe their most talented (if not most dedicated) player, due off-field issues. That said they're still a talented team that will push us hard. Kickoff tomorrow is at 7:30 and the Dick has new menu items being rolled tomorrow. Everything from Artic Cinnamon Nachos to Elote to Spicy Italian Sausage will be available starting tomorrow night. Sounds like they listened to at least some of the complaints from last season.
Player Availability:
OUT: D Wayne Frederick (hip), M Kimani Stewart-Baynes (groin)
Not a bad injury report for the good guys. Hopefully Djordje is fully heel-ed now (and got enough sleep as a new father).
This is what I think Armas will roll out there. I'd like to see Vines get a week off and maybe Cabral too, but I think Armas sticks with his lineup.
Prediction: 1-1 draw, goal by Navarro. We actually have a slightly better offense than Minnesota but, particularly after last week, a much worse defense. I hope we see a good bounce-back performance from the Burgundy Boys because a bad outing after the games last week could really send our season into a spiral. I think we look better but Minnesota is too good to expect us to beat them, so a draw seems likely. Navarro continues his hot streak making the decision on him even tougher.
