The Seattle Sounders are taking on the San Jose Earthquakes on Sunday (7:30 p.m. PT; JOEtv, Prime Video, 1090 KJR AM, El Rey 1360 AM) at Earthquakes Stadium in northern California. Here are three matchups to watch:
Jordan Morris vs. Florian Jungwirth
Morris had one of the best matches of his career in the Sounders’ historic 7-1 win over the Earthquakes last month, notching a goal and a career-high three assists. In San Jose Head Coach Matías Almeyda’s man-marking system, the unenviable task of guarding Morris 1-v-1 fell to Jungwirth, who struggled all evening trying to keep pace.
