Seattle Sounders Owner Adrian Hanauer didn’t mince words in a recent article on ESPNFC.com outlining the highs and lows of the team’s dramatic 2016 season, calling it the worst year of his lengthy career in professional soccer.
The Sounders will take on Toronto FC in the MLS Cup Final at BMO Field on Dec. 10, a culmination perhaps one thought inconceivable as recent as the regular season finale in October. The Sounders have never won MLS Cup and are relishing the chance to make history after flirting with what they thought might be the worst season since the club’s MLS inception in 2009.
