Philadelphia had its chances.
But whether facing the Sounders’ defensive lineup or its offensive attack, the Union couldn’t keep its hot scoring streak going. The Sounders were able to slip into the eastern night with a scoreless draw at Talen Energy Stadium.
The Sounders (7-1-5) are winless in Philadelphia. However, the outcome was a positive for the visitors considering all the Sounders had working against them Saturday in injuries and travel after playing Wednesday at home.
The result was the Union’s first shutout since a loss April 13. In its last three matches, Philadelphia scored 10 goals while allowing just two.
