Sounders vs. RSL, recap: Penalties and pain

SEATTLE — Well, that’s got to be one of the worst possible ways for the season to end at this point. The Seattle Sounders and Real Salt Lake played to a scoreless draw through regulation and extra time before a David Ochoa save on Kelyn Rowe’s penalty and Justen Glad’s shot was deflected off the post and in on the sixth round of penalty kicks, sending RSL through to the next round. Seattle were dominant, to put it lightly, throughout the game, but couldn't find the back of the net.

Through the 120 minutes before penalties Seattle had 62% of possession and took 21 shots to RSL’s zero, but the lack of finishing ultimately let the squad down.
