The Sounders FC Academy U-18 squad’s season has come to an end after losing 3-2 to the LA Galaxy in extra-time of the USSDA semifinal. After jumping out to a 2-0 lead in the first 25 minutes of the match, the Galaxy battled back after the break to send the match to extra-time and found the winner in the 97th minute.
It was a tale of two halves in Carson, Calif., as a scintillating first-half display from the Sounders attack saw Seattle up two goals by the 24th minute.
The first goal was a truly wonderful attacking sequence.
