June 23 | Stefan Frei denies Nemanja Nikolic on a breakaway


Our No. 2 save of the season, Stefan Frei came up with a brilliant 1-on-1 breakaway stop on the Chicago Fire’s Nemanja Nikolic. Frei made himself big and wedged the ball between his outstretched leg and the turf in the 80th minute to keep the score level and ensure the Sounders picked up a point at home.
