Depending on your mood, you can get whatever you want out of last weekend’s LA Galaxy match. Glass half full kinda person? Hey! 2-2 on the road against a team you’re fighting with for playoff position. The expected goals show a dominant team who couldn’t catch a break finishing. A tad more skeptical of the team? Then you’re disappointed by the lack of urgency in a team playing up a man for nearly 90 minutes, one that had a golden opportunity to get three road points from a Western Conference rival and couldn’t. Had your fill? Then you’re probably calling for drastic management and personnel changes after the Sounders came out flat, got beat handily for five minutes, created a red card, then promptly failed to take advantage (in fact, looking the worse team for long stretches of the match).
Sounders take road point from shorthanded rival. So, is your glass half empty or half full?
