TUKWILA, Wash. — There are 16 days between the Seattle Sounders’ second leg against FC Dallas in the Western Conference Semifinals on Nov. 6 and the team’s first leg of the Western Conference Championship against the Colorado Rapids on Nov. 22 (7 p.m. PT; FS1, KIRO Radio 97.3 FM, El Rey 1360AM).
The time between rounds of the 2016 Audi MLS Cup Playoffs was elongated because of a preexisting FIFA international break, and the extra time is a double-edged sword. It affords teams like the Sounders a chance to have injured players recover and get healthy.
