Five Cuban soccer players were missing Tuesday night after the under-23 team played against the United States, a team official said Wednesday. The missing men had not reported to the authorities. Zachary Mann, a spokesman for Customs and Border Protection, said it was unlikely the agency would learn the men’s whereabouts until they come forward. The players likely would be granted political protection under a United States policy that allows Cubans who reach American soil to obtain asylum. The Cuban team is playing in regional qualifying games for the Beijing Olympics this August. A Concacaf spokesman declined comment, saying that the situation was under review. Team officials did not identify the five missing players, but they are believed to be: José Manuel Miranda, Erlys García Baro, Yenier Bermúdez, Yordany Alvarez and Loanni Prieto. The Tampa police spokeswoman Andrea Davis said the agency had not received missing persons reports from the team, and officers were not called to the team’s hotel to investigate.

The Colorado Rapids put on a strong showing this afternoon earning a 3-2 win over Ipswich at the Arsenal Training Centre. With the victory, Colorado remains undefeated during preseason play with a 3-0-3 record.The Rapids were aggressieve throughout the first half and came close to finding the back of the net on multiple occasions. With a beautifully played corner kick by midfielder Terry Cooke into the area, midfielder Rafael Gomes netted the contest’s first score with a finishing header in the 23rd minute. But during the second half, on the 57th minute Ipswich equaled the score at 1-1. Colorado quickly responded just two minutes later when midfielder Nick LaBrocca struck the ball from nearly 20+ yards out giving the Rapids the lead once again at 2-1. With the Ipswich attack coming on strong once again, the Colorado defense suffered a hand ball allowing the Tractor Boys to tie the score at 2-2 in the 68th minute on a penalty kick. Once again, the Rapids were able to quickly response a second time in the half answering the Ipswich goal in the 74th minute. Defender Tim Ward played a long ball from the Colorado defense laying it perfectly in for forward Jovan Kirovski, who had no problem striking the back of the net to lift the Rapids to victory.

New York Red Bulls coach Juan Carlos Osorio received news that winger Dane Richards will be out more than a month with a sprained MCL on his right knee, according to a report on BigAppleSoccer.com. “It’s a lot worse than we expected,” Osorio told the website. Richards’ injury occurred during a scrimmage on Monday with sister club Red Bull Salzburg on New York’s preseason trip to Austria. New York lost the match 1-0 to the Salzburg reserves. Apparently, the match was extremely chippy with numerous dirty tackles and hard fouls being committed, including the one that sidelined Richards, which earned Pichler Harald a yellow card in the 14th minute. The injury means Richards, who was a finalist for MLS rookie of the year last season, will probably miss New York’s first regular season match vs. the Columbus Crew at Giants Stadium on April 5.
