Yeboah scores 16th goal this season for Minnesota in 2-2 tie with Rapids
COMMERCE CITY, Colo. (AP) --- Kelvin Yeboah scored his career-high 16th goal
this season Wednesday night for Minnesota United in a 2-2 tie with the Colorado
Rapids.
Sayed Abu Farki subbed on for Keegan Rosenberry in the 60th minute, was shown a
straight red card in the 68th and Colorado played a man down the rest of the
way.
An own goal by Colorado's Loc Williams capped the scoring in the 83rd. Hansen
left his line and Yeboah played a low ball in front of the net where Williams
misplayed a left-foot clearance that, as he fell to the ground, bounced up and
deflected off his left thigh into the net.
Yeboah stole a pass in the attacking third, raced to the center of the area and
beat goalkeeper Nico Hansen with a rolling shot in the 52nd minute that made it
1-1. The 26-year-old has at least one goal contribution in nine consecutive
games and has eight goals and three assists in that span.
Darren Yapi redirected a volley, off an arcing cross played into the area by
Rosenberry, into the net to open the scoring in first-half stoppage time and
Georgi Minoungou scored from point-blank range into a wide-open net to give the
Rapids (11-13-5) a 2-1 lead in the 74th minute.
Minnesota (7-12-10) is winless, with five losses, in its last eight games.
Up next
Minnesota: Hosts St. Louis on Saturday.
Colorado: Plays Saturday at Portland.
