The Seattle Sounders tore through the LA Galaxy, as Bruce Arena's men closed preseason with a 4-0 defeat at a rain-lashed StubHub Center on Wednesday night. Andreas Ivanschitz struck twice , while Chad Marshall and Clint Dempsey were also on target for the Sounders.
From the start, the Galaxy showed no ill effects from the bad field conditions and twice came close to taking the lead through Robbie Keane.
The Sounders, however, would grab the breakthrough on 22 minutes when Andreas Ivanschitz pounced outside the box to beat Brian Rowe for the 1-0.
