First half penalty sinks FC Dallas in 1-0 loss at the Seattle Sounders

The struggles for FC Dallas at Lumen Field continue as they fell to the Seattle Sounders 1-0 on a rare Tuesday night game.

FC Dallas used a heavily rotated lineup and nearly got out of Seattle with a point, but a Nicolas Lodeiro penalty kick in the 39th minute was the difference.

FC Dallas keeper Maarten Paes helped concede the penalty in the 36th minute as he was caught off his goal line on a ball from Lodeiro to Jordan Morris. The United States national team striker beat his defender for a ball and forced Paes to make a poor decision on coming out to stop his ability to get a shot on goal.
