Three points is three points but when it comes against a Cascadia rival, it's just that much sweeter.
And for the second time in under a month, the Sounders were able to take the Pacific Northwest bragging rights back to Seattle following the 2-0 victory against Whitecaps FC in old Canada. The star of the show? One Chad Barrett who had two outstanding finishes in the match that sealed the points for the Rave Green.
It was just a lovely afternoon north of the border. A lovely, lovely afternoon. The win gives Seattle three wins from four matches ahead of a six-match swing that will see five played in front of the CenturyLink Field faithful. Oh happy day!
Let's go back and enjoy the Cascadia fun in the Social Timeline.
