The doubters are in shambles. Zack Steffen, who has re-emerged as one of MLS’s top goalkeepers during the Rapids’ wild Leagues Cup run, came up big again in Colorado’s third penalty shootout of the tournament. This time, it was in a pivotal third-place game with a spot in the CONCACAF Champions Cup on the line. A Rapids collapse at the end of the first half was avenged by Chris Armas adjustments and, fittingly, a vintage Steffen performance in a 3-1 penalty shootout victory at Subaru Park on Sunday. After playing the Philadelphia Union to a 2-all tie in regulation, Steffen channeled one last bit of PK magic to secure the Champions Cup spot. The veteran keeper saved the first two Union penalties by Daniel Gazdag and Tai Baribo, who scored both Union goals while watching Djordje Mihailovic and Cole Bassett drill theirs.
