Tough luck for the #Rapids, who fell asleep on a quick ball in. Wynne fell asleep the most; Wallace was his guy. Piquionne beats Sturgis.
Colorado Rapids@ColoradoRapids
Disappointing for #Rapids, who had earned a number of good chances on the other end. Momentary lapse and behind 1-0 on Timbers' 1st chance.

Off restart, Brown nearly collects long cross that Kah misplays on bounce, but #timbers clear. Colorado with the early pressure. #rctid
Colorado Rapids@ColoradoRapids
A quick second chance, as Thomas puts a close range header just wide, and Brown can't get to it before it goes out of play. #Rapids #PORvCOL
Chris Bianchi@Rapids_News
Nice early opp for #Rapids as Brown's deflected shot barely goes wide, then Brown nearly fires home 30 seconds later.
Colorado Rapids@ColoradoRapids
Good early chance for the #Rapids- Brown hits a shot from top of the 18, and Ricketts tips the deflection wide. #PORvCOL
