Seattle caught up to their rivals this weekend...by only one point. Nine points separate the Sounders and 6th place, and they’ve got two games in hand. If those two are wins, they’ll only need three more points. Last weekend’s matches produced only one result that was negative for the Sounders, and two results that could go either way.
Saturday 7/30-
NYCFC 5 - Colorado Rapids 1: This meeting between the conference leaders went a little less than expected; even with the plethora of NYCFC players suspended, they blew the Rapids out. Anytime the West loses, it’s good for the Sounders.
