07/26/2010 - Seattle, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Steve Zakuani scored a pair of goals in the opening 20 minutes as Seattle Sounders FC handed the Colorado Rapids a 2-1 defeat at Qwest Field on Sunday.
Sounders designated player Blaise Nkufo was making his Major League Soccer debut, but it was Zakuani that stole the headlines as he scored eight minutes into the game, and after Omar Cummings equalized one minute later for the Rapids, he added another goal in the 17th minute.
The win means that Seattle (6-8-4) has now claimed seven points from its last three games following a three-game losing skid, while the Rapids (6-5-5) are now winless in their last six games.
Zakuani was a bit fortunate to put his team in the lead after just eight minutes as he collected a pass inside the penalty area from Fredy Montero and drove a low shot off the near post. However, the ball came off the post and struck the back of Colorado goalkeeper Matt Pickens, redirecting it into the net.
The Rapids answered almost immediately, however, as Cummings took possession of the ball on the right wing and cut towards the top of the box before unleashing a powerful left-footed shot that flew past goalkeeper Kasey Keller and into the upper-right corner of the goal.
Seattle then regained the lead eight minutes later with some good work from Sanna Nyassi. He chased down a ball on the right wing and carried it into the area before picking out a cutting Zakuani for a simple finish from a few yards.
Again Colorado tried to answer shortly after conceding a goal, but this time Keller did well to tip Conor Casey's header over the crossbar in the 19th minute.
The Rapids were the more dangerous side over the second half, with Seattle playing a more conservative style, and Colorado's best chance to equalize came in the 62nd minute.
Pablo Mastroeni scuffed a shot from outside the area but Jamie Smith did a nice job of redirecting the weak effort on target. However, Keller reacted quickly and did enough to keep the ball out.
Only seconds later, Cummings wasted a great opportunity when he was played in on goal by Mehdi Ballouchy, but he shot the ball over the net from 12 yards with only Keller to beat.
