TUKWILA, Wash. — The Seattle Sounders held a quick training session on Saturday before traveling to Los Angeles for their massive Sunday tilt against the second-place Galaxy (1 p.m. PT; ESPN, 107.7 The End, El Rey 1360AM).
The team scrimmaged, worked on tactics and set pieces and focused on staying composed, something it will need to be for 90 minutes on Sunday against an LA side with no shortage of offensive firepower.
“There’s not one singular [challenge], they’re a really good team,” Sounders interim head coach Brian Schmetzer said. “Lots of weapons, lots of danger guys, so we’ll have to be sharp defensively, but when we do create whatever amount of chances we get, one guy will have to bury one.
