An unfettered Sounders attack unleashed its fury on a porous Minnesota United FC defense Saturday and the result was something fans have long awaited.
The Sounders emerged with a 4-0 road victory, moving to within two points of the Western Conference lead and serving notice they’re a team to watch down the stretch. It wasn’t so much the blowout win over an expansion team known for giving up goals in bunches, more the folks doing the scoring.
Clint Dempsey notched the brace and Jordan Morris knocked one in as well to go with an early strike by Will Bruin.
