SEATTLE — The dam didn’t exactly break, but there was enough of a crack for the Seattle Sounders to get their first goal — and win — at home in over a month. Albert Rusnák’s 67th minute goal snapped a home goal-less drought that had stretched out to 405 minutes, giving the Sounders a 1-0 win over the Houston Dynamo.
Like they have in many of their recent games, the Sounders again started strong and created several good chances in the first half. It was not until Micael was shown two yellow cards in the span of 49 seconds to get ejected in the 61st minute that the Sounders could finally break through.
