We said: Colorado Rapids 1-1 Nashville SC
Colorado's new era under Armas began in catastrophic fashion when trailing 4-0 at half time in their opening match, while Nashville showed their usual grit under Smith to claim a point despite being the inferior side.
The visitors are lacking offensive quality due to injuries at the moment and may be content to escape Colorado with another point to their name, and we do not think that the host would mind that outcome either as they look to settle under their new head coach.
