Despite dressing only 17 players after another injury to a potential starter, the Seattle Sounders were able to run their unbeaten streak to 12 games after securing a 1-1 tie with the Colorado Rapids on Sunday behind Alex Roldan’s first career goal. In the process, the Sounders tied the MLS record for longest unbeaten streak to start a season, becoming the fifth team to do so and the first one since 2014. Their overall regular-season unbeaten streak now stands at 14 games, still well short of the MLS record of 19.
The Sounders did technically fall out of the Supporters’ Shield lead after Sporting KC beat the LA Galaxy, but only due to the tiebreaker rules.
