The Rapids last road win? Houston (last year). The Rapids last home win? Houston (in July). So of course we should have seen this surprise win coming. Colorado seems to have Houston's number but it wasn't exactly exciting soccer. We saw our first real glimpse of what Aigner can bring to this team, his perfect cross to Badji to set up the winning (and only) goal is a pass we haven't seen often as Rapids fans. That was only the 3rd shot on goal of the night though and Houston also only had 3. Kortne Ford had a good game on defense.
While the win is always welcome and needed, the main difference between this game and the last couple is that Houston played no better than us, which at least kept it competitive. Offensively there was no difference this week, other than Aignr's pass, to what we've been seeing.
The Rapids now need 7 points in the last 7 games to avoid their worst pts/game ever.
