MLS named Seattle Sounders forward Clint Dempsey and midfielder Cristain Roldan to its Week 24 Team of the Week on Monday. Defender Brad Evans was also named to the bench as an honorable mention.
Dempsey and Roldan played integral roles in the Sounders' 3-1 win over the Portland Timbers on Sunday evening, leading Seattle to its third consecutive victory. Dempsey paced the Sounders with a brace, pushing his career goals total to eight vs. Portland. He scored in the 61st minute on a penalty kick drawn by Roldan and again in the 80th on a feed from Roldan.
