Sounders top depleted Galaxy 5-0

Harry Shipp had a goal and an assist and the Seattle Sounders rolled past the depleted Los Angeles Galaxy 5-0 on Saturday for their club-record sixth straight victory.

Ibrahimovic indicated earlier in the week that he did not want to play on Seattle's turf and risk re-injuring his knee, so did not make the trip. Giovani dos Santos (leg), Jonathan dos Santos (groin), and Alessandrini (knee) all were out with injuries. Starting defender Michael Ciani (hamstring) also was sidelined.

Marshall scored late in the third minute for his third of the year and Seattle's quickest goal of the season.
