Sounders hope to embody Bruce Lee’s spirit during tribute game

Saturday’s match against FC Dallas is the Bruce Lee Match. It’s a celebration of the life and legacy of Bruce Lee, and an extension of the collaboration between the Seattle Sounders and the Bruce Lee Foundation that has so far been most prominently showcased with the team’s newest kit. The timing of the match coincides with the 50th anniversary of Lee’s passing on July 20, 1973, just a month before the release of his final film, “Enter the Dragon.”

The match will be a celebration of Lee’s life and his lasting impact on the world. It will include a pregame ceremony called “Art and Action” that will feature a number of forms of performance and art to represent different facets of the legend’s life.
