Well, sounds like I didn’t miss much. Not wild about Mastroeni playing backups with WC break four days away. #COLvCHI
Nick Fox@OlympicMule
You can call it ugly and dull, but that was a gutsy performance by a #cf97 defense clearly exhausted by the altitude. #MLS #COLvCHI

Berner misjudged that run. Luckily it was offsides. #Rapids96 #COLvCHI
