Qualification for the MLS Cup Playoffs will wait another week as FC Dallas beat Seattle Sounders FC 2-1. Schmetzer’s men gave up a one-goal lead at half losing on a set-piece goal and a brilliant goal by Guatemalan vampire Carlos Ruiz. After being out of club soccer for six months the 37-year-old signed with FCD. Today he gave them hope at the Supporters’ Shield.
With that goal and the other results on the day the Sounders can finish as low as 7th and as high as 4th.
In the first half the Sounders were the more threatening side.
