SEATTLE — The Seattle Sounders made it a point of emphasis prior to Sunday’s match against the Colorado Rapids to start the season off on the right foot.
They did that and then some.
After an early scare from the Rapids on a shot that bounced off the crossbar of Stefan Frei’s goal, the Sounders were able to regroup and put two goals past the Rapids in the first half, on their way to a four-goal performance that they hope will serve notice to the rest of Major League Soccer.
Of course, one game does not a season make, and the Sounders will have to quickly put this match behind them.
