In this week’s brief recap of Minnesotans playing professionally outside of the state: seasons come to an end for Miller, Cropper, and Bunbury while Mallace and Yueill have a hope at postseason play.
Teal Bunbury went the distance for the New England Revolution in a 3-2 win over the Montreal Impact. This was the Rev’s first and only away win of the season. Bunbury played on the right side of a five-player midfield. He saw a fair amount of the ball, but he did not contribute to any of the three New England goals.
The Colorado Rapids capped off a disappointing season with a 3-0 loss to Seattle Sounders FC. Eric Miller started at right back for the Rapids, but moved to the left for the final half hour. The defender nearly earned his third career assist, but Stefan Aigner couldn’t finish.
40' – ???? SO CLOSE! Aigner almost puts away a beauty, but Frei is there to make the save.
