In some ways, Saturday inaugurated the Dejan Joveljić era with a bang; in others, without one. What did the Sounders' 2-2 draw with Chicago mean for the team going forward with their summer signing?
The question from early in the season - is the Sounders' opening legit? - is long since its expiration date. The new question is: can they recover in time to make the playoffs? Their most recent loss to Austin FC makes things look quite dire indeed.
Questions are becoming almost existential for the Sounders as they go into their Wednesday match against Austin with seven straight MLS losses in tow. How did loss number seven (this time to the 'Caps) unfold on Sunday?
It may not have been an MLS game (and it may be too late to advance in Leagues Cup), but at long last, the Sounders broke their losing streak and their striker no-scoring streak. Oh yeah, and Seba Gomez put on a show.
Seattle is in their worst position all season after their sixth straight loss. How did the team react after dropping a winnable game 2-1 to the Portland Timbers?
