The Seattle Sounders hosted the Atlanta Silverbacks in Round 3 of the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup on Wednesday night. The lower division NASL club put up a good fight against the MLS Sounders for much of the first half. But then the flood gates opened. Seattle put one in …
Seattle’s franchise-best start to the season has been faltering as of late. This Wednesday the Columbus Crew got the better of the Sounders for the first time in the 8 matches they’ve played over the past 3 years. There weren’t a lot of highlights for the home side, so let’s …
Mauro Rosales scored his first goal of the season on Saturday against the Philadelphia Union. That was all the Seattle Sounders needed to put another notch in the win column. It was another fun match to shoot. The sun was out again, which of course presented its own challenges – …

But Seattle Sounders managed to keep the previously undefeated Houston Dynamo scoreless while scoring 2 goals partway through the first half. The 2-0 win gives the …
Saturday night the rain held off in Seattle as Sounders FC treated over 38,000 fans to a spectacle of goals, winning the match 3-1. David Estrada led the way, claiming his first hat trick as a professional. This has been quite the start to 2012 for Estrada, a player who …
