It is the third consecutive game suspended for Colorado Rapids so far this MLS season.

Colorado Rapids does not stop being affected by Covid 19. The game against Los Angeles FC had to be suspended due to the imminent cases of Covid 19. They do not know when they will reschedule it but from the MLS they assure that it is better to take care of the health of the players to risk something bad happening. The game was to be played at 7 p.m. at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.

Another member of the Colorado Rapids staff has tested positive for Covid 19 so they had to suspend the game and return to the mandatory quarantine for the Colorado team. Let's remember that last week they had tested the entire Colorado Rapids team and 4 players had tested positive.

From Colorado Rapids they hoped that after this game against Los Angeles FC the public could once again enjoy the team in the stadium for the last five MLS games. Now due to this new suspension they will see in conjunction with the MLS how to continue to take care of all the members and fans of Colorado Rapids.

Prior to this new suspension, the MLS had already decided to suspend two Colorado Rapids games but they had already been rescheduled. The first game was against Portland Timbers and the second against Sporting Kansas City. MLS will have a difficult task to see how the Colorado Rapids team's health continues.
