Sounders vs Vancouver Whitecaps: Player Ratings

Even though Seattle looked the better team, a poor referee and lack of finishing keep the Sounders in the cellar

Man, I struggle to put into words how upsetting it was to watch the Sounders lose 1-2 on my birthday to the visiting Vancouver Whitecaps. If you had turned around for a beer in the 11th and 75th minutes and just watched the game you would think the Sounders won by 4. The home team vastly controlled the game throughout, and rarely looked challenged on defense. There is definitely some work to be done to finish chances and the giant hole behind the forward line needs to be addressed, but this was a good performance with a terrible result aided by a very, very poor referee outing.
