The Seattle Sounders have finally broken their six-match winless streak with a 2-1 victory over Austin FC on Sunday. The Sounders had been struggling in recent weeks, but they managed to turn things around and get the win.
The match started off with a goal from Seattle’s Raúl Ruidíaz in the 15th minute. Austin FC then equalized in the 33rd minute with a goal from Diego Fagundez. However, Seattle was able to retake the lead in the second half with a goal from Will Bruin in the 57th minute.
The Sounders were able to hold on to the lead for the remainder of the match, despite some late pressure from Austin FC. Seattle goalkeeper Stefan Frei made several key saves to help preserve the victory.
The win was a much-needed boost for the Sounders, who had been struggling in recent weeks. The team had gone 0-5-1 in their previous six matches, and they were in danger of slipping further down the Western Conference standings.
The victory over Austin FC should give the Sounders some confidence heading into their next match against LAFC. If they can continue to play well, they could be in a good position to make a run at the playoffs.
Overall, it was a great win for the Sounders and a much-needed one at that. Hopefully, they can build on this result and continue to find success in the coming weeks.
