PORTLAND, Ore. — By now, I think we probably all agree that Raúl Ruidíaz is at least in the running for the best close-range finisher the Seattle Sounders have ever had. Time and time again, the Peruvian makes shots from in and around the six-yard box look extraordinarily easy.
The latest example came on Sunday when he briefly gave the Sounders a 1-0 lead, finishing off Cristian Roldan’s cross.
I don’t think this necessarily looked like an easy finish at full speed, but LevyFilms’ footage better illustrates just how difficult it was.
