Fewer than two months into the Major League Soccer season and veteran right back Brad Evans says his Sounders face a “must win” game on Saturday against Real Salt Lake.
The Sounders are coming off a pair of road losses in which they got outscored a combined 7-1 and fell to 2-5-4 on the season, good only for second-to-last place in the Western Conference. And while there’s still plenty of season to go, it risks getting late real early unless the Sounders can start winning games — especially at home.
“Without really talking about it, this is a must win game for us,” Evans said.
