Seattle Sounders midfielder Cristian Roldan scored his first goal for the Rave Green during a U.S. Open Cup match at Starfire Stadium on Wednesday, and the first-round draft pick at the 2015 MLS SuperDraft said he was a bit surprised that it took so long to get his first.
“Yeah, I’ve hit the post a couple of times,” Roldan said. “But it’s good to finally score and hopefully I build on it.”
The goal opened the scoring for the Sounders at a crucial time as the match was waning and Kitsap Pumas were sitting back and playing on the counter.
