Sounders vs. LAFC, recap: Back on top
Max Aquino / Sounder at Heart The Seattle Sounders moved back into first place of the Western Conference, beating Los Angeles FC for the second time in about three weeks on Friday. The Sounders got two penalties from Nicolas Lodeiro and a golazo from Raúl Ruidíaz to finish off a 3-0 win.
Both penalties came in the first half and while neither was egregious, the Sounders played well enough that they could at least talk themselves into deserving the halftime margin of 2-0. LAFC dominated most of the second half and seemed mostly likely to score the next goal until Ruidíaz unleashed his lethal finish that effectively put the game away.
