The offseason acquisition opened his Sounders account in exhilarating fashion by toe-poking in the equalizer in the 94th minute on Saturday in a 2-2 road draw with the Montreal Impact. Bruin entered as a substitute in the 85th minute and salvaged the first point of the Sounders’ season.
“That’s what we brought [Bruin] here for,” said Sounders head coach Brian Schmetzer. “Right place, right time. That seems to be the storyline of his career. He seems to just bang goals in in key moments.”
Bruin certainly has a knack for goal.
