Playing a team that had rudely sent Seattle home from Florida a few weeks ago, the Seattle Sounders produced their second thrashing of a “good” team in as many tries. The 3-1 score line against LAFC was again dominated by a goal explosion in the second half by the good guys, and the suddenly resilient defensive unit was cohesive and stout, giving up only a single goal within a few quality chances. Seattle looks much stronger on both sides of the ball and is dominating teams since returning from the MLS Is Back tournament.

This was another strong performance from Frei who gave up a goal against four shots on frame.
