Seattle Sounders FC 1-0 FC Dallas

SEATTLE, WA–The Sounders returned to winning ways at Lumen Field as a late penalty kick by Albert Rusnak gave the hosts a 1-0 victory and moved them to fifth in the Western Conference. FC Dallas have won just once in their last eight league matches and scored just once in their last four.

Albert Rusnak had a chance in the 67th minute, but shot just wide.Nouhou would come close three minutes later as well. Girogi Minoungou had a goal chalked off due to offside in the 75th minute.
