It took a 2-0 win over the Vancouver Whitecaps earlier this week for the LA Galaxy to break their winless run of seven straight league games. So the Galaxy can say they travel to Cascadia with a much-needed confidence boost as they take on the Seattle Sounders at CenturyLink Field on Saturday.
Against the Whitecaps, the two changes Bruce Arena most needed to make were in front, where Gyasi Zardes and Robbie Keane made their return from international duty. The Galaxy had endured a frustrating month without the duo, and it was Keane who made his presence known right away, scoring a superb goal from the edge of the box to give LA the lead.
