How did Sounders win the MLS Cup? A stop, kick and jump

If you are still not convinced of what the defining moments of the Seattle Sounders’ run to the MLS Cup were, just consult the masses.

Thousands of fans gathered at the victory parade after Seattle knocked off Toronto in a shootout to win its first Major League Soccer title last December.

And when a highlight video from the championship match played on the big screen at the Seattle Center, there came loud, distinct roars hailing the two biggest sequences, separated by a mere 45 minutes.

First, it was Stefan Frei’s miraculous save.

And then came Roman Torres’ deciding penalty kick.
