The Seattle Sounders fell 4-2 against Monterrey at Lumen Field on Sunday night. The loss means that Seattle ends their participation in this edition of the Leagues Cup after two frustrating losses, and they’ll now have three weeks before they return to MLS action.
The Sounders got off to a roaring start, opening the scoring with a gorgeous free kick from Nico Lodeiro in the second minute, then adding to that lead in the sixth with Jordan Morris heading home a cross from Léo Chú. Seattle pushed to extend their lead and play their way into the next round of the Leagues Cup, but Monterrey’s influence in the game started growing.
