After a frustrating loss at home to Sporting KC over the weekend, the Seattle Sounders traveled down the coast to play LAFC and got the doors blown off for their trouble. LAFC handed the Sounders a 3-0 loss that easily could have been worse if not for a couple of vintage Stefan Frei saves. Seattle came close to getting off the mark a couple of times, but never really looked much like they were going to give the hosts any trouble.
Maybe we can find solace in the idea that it grows darkest before the dawn?
