The Seattle Sounders faced a difficult task last night as they hosted Pumas UNAM in the second leg of the CONCACAF Champions League final, and though they won, their task was made all the more difficult early in the first half when two key players left the game due to injuries. First it was Nouhou who had to be subbed off in the 11th minute after going down a couple of times. Then, just before the half-hour mark, João Paulo had a collision on the sideline and went down in a heap. While Nouhou was able to leave the field under his own strength, JP was stretchered straight to the locker rooms.
