A penalty goal by Chilean Diego Rubio sealed this Saturday the 2-0 victory for Colorado Rapids against Mexican Carlos Vela’s LAFC, who suffered the second loss of the season in the MLS.

Rubio has already scored six goals in games with Colorado and, together with another penalty, converted by the American Gyasi Zardes, knocked down the leaders of the Western Conference.

The Chilean player, who will have his birthday this Sunday 29 years, reactivated the Rapids after two consecutive losses, one in the MLS and another in the ‘US Open’ Cup.

The LAFC, in which the Mexican Carlos Vela started, lost his second game of the season orada, after the 1-2 suffered in the derby against Chicharito Hernández’s LA Galaxy.

Steve Cherundolo’s team adds 23 points and could be overtaken by Austin, who plays this Saturday against Real Salt Lake.
