Seattle Sounders vs. San Jose Earthquakes: Player ratings

The Sounders returned on Friday evening to play soccer under pandemic conditions in a 90-degree swamp. A predictably sluggish game, Seattle and San Jose battled to a mundane scoreless draw, getting a few chances and conceding some. This game had few highlights and showed the rust of teams that were forced into a tournament after months off. The Sounders struggled to find an identity to play through, and their actions were stunted and disjointed. San Jose had a huge possession lead in both halves, but the second half had only 30 percent as many passes attempted as the first half as both teams really slowed down.
