Castrillon scored his third goal of the season on a headeer in the 61st minute, and Rivero added his first MLS goal in the 74th. Brian Mullan assisted on both goals.
Colorado improved to 5-5-0, and Dallas dropped to 3-4-3.
Dallas’ Daniel Hernandez and Blas Perez were given red cards in the first half. Herdnandez was ejected in the 34th minute, and Perez in the 36th.
