BOX SCORE
DENVER (AP) _ Jay Heaps and Roy Lassiter scored in the final 16 minutes as the Miami Fusion beat the Colorado Rapids 2-1 on Saturday night, Colorado's third straight loss at home. After a scoreless first half, Colorado (4-6-0) took the lead in the 50th minute when Jason Bent's left-footed the ball off the inside of the left post and in for his first Major League Soccer goal. The Rapids were given a man advantage five minutes later when Miami's Henry Gutierrez was red-carded, but the Fusion (3-3-4) came back for their second win against no loses under new coach Ray Hudson. In the 74th minute, Heaps got a foot on the ball after a corner kick and took a shot that squirted under Rapids goalie Adin Brown to tie the game. Five minutes later, Miami goalkeeper Nick Rimando cleared the ball the length of the field. Lassiter caught up with it and sent it past a sliding Brown for the winning goal.
