Rio Grande Valley FC defeated Seattle Sounders FC 2 on Saturday evening in USL play at H-E-B Park in Edinburg, Texas, behind goals from Jorginho James, Ruben Luna and Ivan Magalhaes.

James gave RGV the lead in the 16th minute after he intercepted a pass from goalkeeper Tyler Miller and fired a seeing-eye right-footed shot over Miller’s head and into the net.

S2 equalized just seconds before halftime on a corner kick. Ray Saari whipped in a ball to the near post that found the head of Riley Grant, who flicked it to the far post and beat goalkeeper Borja Angoitia.
