Seattle Sounders midfielder Víctor Rodríguez opened his MLS goal and assist accounts on Sept. 27 against the Vancouver Whitecaps in front of the CenturyLink Field faithful. In this edition of Quest Diagnostics Advanced Stats, we take a closer look at Rodríguez’s performance.
The 28-year-old attacked with purpose all game, constantly keeping Whitecaps defenders off balance. He gave Seattle the lead in the first half before directing a textbook counterattack to bury Vancouver after the break.
