The Seattle Sounders bounced back after their loss to LAFC on Saturday, hosting FC Dallas on a lovely Seattle Tuesday evening. The 1-0 win was the team’s first shutout since the road win against Toronto FC, and the first clean sheet at home since the win over Sporting Kansas City back on June 23. The Sounders started creating challenges for Dallas’s defense early, with a decent look from Nico Lodeiro saved by the Dallas goalkeeper, Maarten Paes, in the 4th minute. Seattle kept most of the possession, playing the ball around and creating a handful of quality chances leading up to the 37th minute when Jordan Morris got in behind the defense and rose up to take the ball out of the air inside the box with his chest, but Paes took him out while coming for the ball.
