Seattle Sounders continue their recent improvement by beating Real Salt Lake by 2-1.


This is clearly an improvement from a side that has the unwanted record of having lost the most games in the MLS. Against a side that had the possibility to move into the third place of the table, Seattle Sounders did exceptionally well to win the game.

Seattle Sounders manage to dominate the game from the start to the end. Indeed, they ended the game by having twice as much shot on target than their opponents. Indeed they manage to shoot 18 times on target compared to the 9 by their opponent.

Seattle Sounders opened the scoring in the 24th minute after a great start to the game. They did not allow Real Salt Lake a lot of time on the table, and they pressed them high on the pitch. They will be rewarded with a second goal in the 37th minute to make the score 2-0. The first goal was scored by the Uruguay player Lodeiro who showed his quality on a long shot.

Lodeiro will again be involved in the second goal when a precise pass from the Uruguay player will find Clint Dempsey in space. The latter will pass the ball to Jordan Morris, and the latter will score with a precise header to make the score 2-0. This is the third assist that Lodeiro has created in the space of 2 games.

Seattle Sounders will manage to control the game afterward and will only concede a goal in the 62nd minute because of a goalkeeper mistake. Indeed Seattle Sounders goalkeeper will make a mistake and give the ball to a Real Salt Lake player and the latter could not miss from close range.
The score will not change, and Seattle Sounders will end the game with a victory.
