The Sounders got to Charleston, S.C. two days ago to begin an 11-day training stretch that will see them play three games of the 2017 Carolina Challenge Cup. Today’s opening match is against the hometown Charleston Battery of the United Soccer League starting at 4 p.m. PT with the Sounders expected to start the attacking trio of Clint Dempsey, Nicolas Lodeiro and Jordan Morris for the first time since late last August.
Lineups are not yet out, but you can stream the contest live right here.
You’ll remember, the threesome played a series of games together in an attacking triangle last summer, with Dempsey scoring five times in his last three contests.
