FULLTIME: The Sounders took a few punches but ultimately stayed upright to survive a late push for the LA Galaxy and claim all three points with a 2-1 win on Saturday. Jordan Morris scored his eighth goal of the season off another assist from Léo Chú, who added a goal of his own to stake the Sounders to a 2-0 halftime lead.
But a formation change to start the second half allowed the Galaxy to take control of the match. They pulled one back in the 63rd minute off a Jalen Neal goal and they continued to push for the equalizer, but never quite found it.
