Colorado Rapids
Lumen Field will host Saturday’s MLS game between Seattle Sounders and Colorado Rapids. Seattle are eyeing their first win of the season and we are positive that they are going to leave their hearts on the field. It has to be noted, though, that all De la Vega, Cardoso, Rusnak, Rodrigues, Paulo, Frei, and Baker-Whiting are sidelined with injuries for the home team.
The Rapids, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 2-1 win over Real Salt Lake. Colorado are eager to give fans yet another reason to celebrate, but seeing that the hosts want this win more than the visitors, we are going to place our bets on Brian Schmetzer’s troops. Kimani Stewart-Baynes remains on the sidelines through illness, but he should be the only absentee in the visiting team. In their last meeting at Lumen Field Seattle Sounders crushed Colorado Rapids 4-0.
Highlighted Player (Albert Rusnak):
Born in Vyskov, Czech Republic on July 7, 1994, Slovakia international Albert Rusnak began his youth career in KAC Kosice. In 1997 he moved to MFK Kosice where he was talent-spotted by Manchester City scouts. However, he did not see any game action for the Citizens in the Premier League as he was immediately loaned to Oldham City.
After making only two appearances for the Latics, the Slovak moved to Birmingham City in 2014. After ending his loan spell with Cambuur, Albert Rusnak moved to FC Groningen in 2015 and it has to be noted that he scored nine goals in 61 appearances for the Dutch club in the Eredivisie.
In the winter of 2017 Rusnak joined MLS club Real Salt Lake for an undisclosed fee. Speaking of his international career, Albert Rusnak made his debut with the Slovakia national team on November 15, 2016 in a goalless draw with Austria. His father, also called Albert Rusnak, used to play football as well.
Highlighted Team (Colorado Rapids):
Colorado Rapids is a Major League Soccer club and they compete in the USA professional soccer league as a member of the Western Conference. Colorado began their play in MLS back in 1996 and 14 years later they managed to win the MLS Cup trophy. The Rapids recorded a 2-1 win over FC Dallas in the final of the tournament, with George John scoring the winner for Gary Smith’s team in the extra time. Colorado made it to the MLS Cup final in 1997 as well, but D.C. United proved to be a big catch for the club in the title game.
The Rapids play their home games at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park and the venue has been Colorado’s home ground since 2007. It has to be noted that the likes of Tim Howard, Carlos Valderama, Claudio Lopez and Jermaine Jones were all part of the club in the past. Colorado’s colors are red, sky blue and white, but they were yellow shirts and blue shorts when playing on the travels.
