The Seattle Sounders are as deep as they appear, while Sporting KC set an ignominious mark with yet another loss
It’s time for celebration in Seattle – the Sounders have vanquished their bogey team. After knocking LAFC out of the playoffs with a 2-1 win in November, Saturday’s 5-2 result felt like conformation that LAFC no longer has Seattle’s number after they knocked the Sounders out of the Open Cup and Leagues Cup in 2024. Those results were part of a 10-match unbeaten run against Seattle that dated back to May 2021.
