Game Notes: Sounders FC at Santa Tecla FC

February 22, 2018 - Major League Soccer (MLS)
Seattle Sounders FC News Release

After finishing preseason preparations ahead of its 10th campaign as an MLS club, Sounders FC beings its 2018 season tonight with the first leg of its SCCL matchup against Salvadoran side Santa Tecla FC at Estadio Atlético Las Delicias (7:00 p.m. PT / Go90, Univision Digital Platforms, El Rey 1360 AM). Thursday's match is being live-streamed on the Go90 app, featuring Michael Watts on the English call. Univision Deportes' digital platforms are also streaming the match, while a delayed broadcast is being aired on Galavision. Fans in Western Washington can tune-in to El Rey 1360 AM for a Spanish radio broadcast, featuring "Zuper" Mario Rodriguez and Felipe Maqueda.

This marks Seattle's fifth outing in the SCCL, most recently advancing to the Quarterfinals of the 2015-2016 tournament before falling to Mexican giant Club America. Should the Rave Green advance past Santa Tecla in this year's tournament - the first that MLS clubs advanced straight to the knockout stage - the club would face the winner of storied Mexican club Chivas Guadalajara and Dominican side Cibao in the Quarterfinals.
