the closest previous was raul diaz arce, who scored four goals for d.c. united in their second game in the 1997 season, also against colorado. two players -- mamadou diallo and diaz arce -- have twice scored four goals in a game. the rapids were left a man down when pablo mastroeni was sent off in the 85th minute for his second caution of the night, the second coming on a tackle from behind on alejandro moreno. moreno then had the last laugh when he scored the fifth goal in stoppage time, a full bicycle kick that ripped into the back of the net after de rosario's cross from the left flank was knocked straight up into the air by a colorado defender. ignacio salazar is a contributor to mlsnet.com. this story was not subject to the approval of major league soccer or its clubs. colorado rapids (0-1-0) vs. houston dynamo (1-0-0) april 02, 2006 -- robertson stadium scoring summary: hou -- brian ching 1 (wade barrett 1, dwayne de rosario 1) 13col -- kyle beckerman 1 (dedi ben dayan 1) 15hou -- brian ching 2 (brian mullan 1, dwayne de rosario 2) 37hou -- brian ching 3 (brian mullan 2, dwayne de rosario 3) 44col -- jovan kirovski 1 (unassisted) 52hou -- brian ching 4 (dwayne de rosario 4) 72hou -- alejandro moreno 1 (unassisted) 92+ colorado rapids -- joe cannon, chris wingert, pablo mastroeni, mike petke, eric denton, kyle beckerman, clint mathis (fabrice noel 16), terry cooke, dedi ben dayan (hunter freeman 35), jovan kirovski, nicolas hernandez (cornell glen 77). substitutes not used: bouna coundoul, matt crawford, dan gargan, jacob peterson houston dynamo -- pat onstad, kelly gray, ryan cochrane, kevin goldthwaite, wade barrett, ricardo clark, dwayne de rosario, adrian serioux, brian mullan, brian ching, alejandro moreno. substitutes not used: ronald cerritos, brad davis, patrick ianni, eddie robinson, marcus storey, craig waibel, zach wells houston dynamocolorado rapids total shots:9 (brian ching 6) 6 (jovan kirovski 2, fabrice noel 2) shots on goal:6 (brian ching 5) 5 (fabrice noel 2) fouls:20 (brian ching 4) 20 (pablo mastroeni 4) offsides:2 (alejandro moreno 1, brian mullan 1) 1 (cornell glen 1) corner kicks:3 (3 tied with 1) 7 (terry cooke 6) saves:3 (pat onstad 3) 1 (joe cannon 1) misconduct summary: col -- chris wingert (caution;
