Jeong Sang-bin’s 1st goal this season helps St. Louis snap 3-game skid, beat Rapids 1-0
COMMERCE CITY, Colo. (AP) — Jeong Sang-bin scored his first goal this season, Roman Bürki had two saves, and St. Louis City beat the Colorado Rapids 1-0 on Saturday night.
St. Louis (2-6-3) snapped a five-game winless streak and a three-game losing streak.
Bürki played a goal kick to beyond midfield and Simon Becher flicked a header to a charging Jeong, who outraced the defense and then beat goalkeeper Nico Hansen one on one for an empty-net goal in the 26th minute.
Defender Rob Holding was shown a straight red card in the 51st minute and the Rapids (4-6-1) played with 10 men the rest of the way.
St. Louis midfielder Chris Durkin was shown yellow cards in the 86th and 87th minutes to level the playing field.
