The Seattle Sounders defeated FC Dallas 4-0 on Sunday to book their ninth straight trip to the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs. Seattle now owns the longest active streak in MLS.
VÃctor RodrÃguez scored in his second straight match to give the Sounders a 1-0 lead in the 31st minute. Will Bruin struck twice in the 64th and 67th minutes, his ninth and 10th goals of the year, and Lamar Neagle added a fourth goal in stoppage time to buoy the Sounders to their 10th home win of the season.
Currently sitting tied for second place in the Western Conference with 50 points (13-9-11) and with one match yet to be played in the regular season, the Rave Green can now finish seeded no lower than fourth position, but, depending on next week's Decision Day results around the conference, could finish as high as second.
Single-match ticketing information for any home postseason matches is set to be released once the club's final seeding is known.
Looking ahead to Decision Day, the Rave Green have one home game remaining in the regular season as they host the Colorado Rapids on Sunday, October 22, in a 1:00 p.m. PT kickoff at CenturyLink Field (JOEtv, Univision-Seattle, 107.7 The End, El Rey 1360 AM).
Seattle is trying to defend its title from last year when it defeated Toronto FC in penalty kicks at BMO Field in Toronto.
