‘Goal-dangerous’ Miguel Ibarra is making a difference for the Sounders — without scoring a goal

TUKWILA — Can a reel of missed goals be entertaining?

If the Sounders were winless two matches into their Major League Soccer season, they’d probably shake their heads “No.” But with the team unbeaten after two home matches, newcomer Miguel Ibarra’s misses are worth a reflection for the promise they hold.

The midfielder had three shots on goal in Seattle’s winner against the Chicago Fire and one goal against the Columbus Crew that was withdrawn by VAR (Video Assistant Referee).

“Everybody is telling me I’m getting in good spots and the goals are going to come, so just keep working,” Ibarra said.
