The Rapids closed the regular season with the 3-0 loss after a hat-trick from Whitecaps forward Camilo Sanvezzo, whose 22 goals on the season earns him the MLS Golden Boot. In the match, Colorado Homegrown Player Dillon Serna entered in the 77th minute, making his MLS debut. Colorado finished the 2013 regular season with franchise records in wins (14) and points (51) since MLS eliminated shootouts after the 1999 season.
