Never let it be said there’s no MLS drama in March.

The Sounders looked ready to settle for their second consecutive 2-1 road loss on Saturday as the game plunged into the twilight of stoppage time. Montreal pressed Seattle’s ability to transition into its defensive positioning in the first half, took a 2-0 lead into the break and again forced the Sounders into a come-from-behind situation. For the second consecutive week, Seattle trailed by two goals after 45 minutes.

This time, though, they left with something.

Will Bruin’s incredible 94th minute poacher’s effort from close range gave the Sounders a dramatic 2-2 draw and the ability to leave a hostile Olympic Stadium road environment with a point in tow.
