Seattle Sounders 2-0 Colorado Rapids: Rothrock stars in season-opening win - Soccer News
"In the 15th minute, he did brilliantly to keep the ball in play down the left before clipping a cross onto the edge of the six-yard box, with Albert Rusnak glancing it past Zack Steffen. Three minutes later, Hassani Dotson turned in the rebound of a long-range volley from Cristian Roldon, only for it to be ruled out following a VAR review for a foul by Jesus Ferreira in the build-up."
"Paul Rothrock got a goal and an assist as the Seattle Sounders breezed past the Colorado Rapids 2-0 at Lumen Field in their MLS season opener. Despite a dramatic first period which lasted 61 minutes due to injuries and lengthy delays, Seattle held firm with a goal in each half to clinch the three points. And Rothrock made sure of the points in the 62nd minute, latching onto Ferreira's deflected low cross to guide a first-time effort over Steffen into the roof of the net."
Seattle Sounders beat the Colorado Rapids 2-0 at Lumen Field, with Paul Rothrock providing an assist and scoring the match-winner. Jordan Morris exited with a thigh injury eight minutes in, and Rothrock replaced him and quickly influenced play. Rothrock’s 15th-minute cross found Albert Rusnak, who glanced the ball past Zack Steffen. A Hassani Dotson rebound was later ruled out after a VAR review for a foul by Jesus Ferreira. Noah Cobb had a straight red reduced to yellow after VAR. Rothrock sealed the win in the 62nd minute, and Seattle generated 1.09 xG from 15 shots to Colorado’s 0.6 xG from eight shots, extending an unbeaten Lumen Field run versus the Rapids to nine matches (W8 D2).
