Sounders Continue Unbeaten Run

With today's victory over the New England Revolution the Sounders have managed to grab nine points out of three games within eight days, and have advanced their unbeaten run to six games. New England kicked the game off with a bang earning a corner in the third minute, Benny Feilhaber taking it short to Sainney Nyassi who took a low shot through traffic that found it's way into the far corner of the goal, skimming the fingertips of Kasey Keller. The Sounders weren't to be discouraged, though. They kept fighting and pushing for an equalizer and finally found it through Tyson Wahl on a set piece in the thirty fourth minute. Mauro Rosales won the opportunity through drawing a hard foul against Ryan Cochrane and Tyson Wahl made the best of it, curling the shot neatly into the far upper corner of the goal past a completely helpless Matt Reis. Notably, this is Wahl's first Major League Soccer goal and what a first goal it was. Not only that, but Wahl's goal made him the thirteenth Sounder so far this season to score. The most of any MLS team. The Sounders doubled their total and grabbed the lead  minuted laters and again Rosales had a major role to play in it. Rosales slid the ball to Roger Levesque in the box, who slid over to Fernandez who fired past Reis who could do nothing to deny the Uruguayan his fourth goal of the season. The Revolution had several opportunities to even the score throughout the rest of the match, a Rajko Lekic shot that rolled just wide, a Shalry Joseph header skillfully saved by Keller, and a Zack Schilawski shot the clattered off of the crossbar, but fortunately it just wasn't to be for the Revs as they advance to being winless in seven.
