CARSON, Calif. — It’s been so long since Osvaldo Alonso scored a goal like that he couldn’t even remember specifics about the last one.
In the U.S. Open Cup a few years ago, maybe? He had a vague recollection of a long-range goal scored a while back at Starfire Stadium.
It’ll be quite some time before he scores another like it, his 78th-minute strike from somewhere north of Santa Monica, the cherry on top of Seattle’s emphatic 4-2 win over the Galaxy on Sunday at the StubHub Center.
One has to dig even further back to recall the Sounders’ last win in this stadium.
