MATCH RECAP: Earthquakes II 4, Colorado Rapids 2 1

COMMERCE CITY, Colo. — San Jose Earthquakes II defeated Colorado Rapids 2 1-4 on Saturday at DICK’S Sporting Goods Park in MLS NEXT Pro regular-season play. While the visitors gave up a goal early in the fourth minute of the match, Quakes II rallied back with four unanswered goals.

Earthquakes Homegrown Player and United States Youth National Team prospect Kaedren Spivey had a strong performance with two goal contributions (1g/1a). The San Jose native assisted a 45+2-minute goal by forward Zach Bohane to keep the scoreline level at half. In the 58th minute, the midfielder took a shot from just outside the box to give his team the lead.

Just six minutes after an own goal by Colorado, forward Shane De Flores forced a giveaway from the hosts and ran the ball toward goal to find the back of the net and set the final 1-4 margin.

Quakes II now travel home to San Jose, California, on Sunday, April 12, to face Minnesota United FC 2. Kickoff from PayPal Park will take place at 7 p.m. PT and will be broadcast globally via OneFootball, as well as on MLSNEXTPro.com.
