TUKWILA — The Seattle Sounders wrapped up training Tuesday ahead of their last match before a short break from league play. Joining them on the practice fields for the first time in a month was midfielder Cristian Roldan, fresh off a Gold Cup-winning stint with the United States Men’s National Team in Sunday.
Roldan didn’t have much time to celebrate the 1-0 victory over Mexico, and in fact was back with the team Monday at Starfire. Roldan did not appear to be suffering any ill-effects from his approximately 60-minute shift in the Gold Cup final, and while he was disappointed that he didn’t the start in the match, he said he was ready to go for Wednesday’s match against FC Dallas.
