Seattle Sounders News Release


The Seattle Sounders (12-5-6 42pts.) will put their 13 match unbeaten run on the line Wednesday night when the Atlanta Silverbacks (10-7-6 36pts.) come to Qwest Field. Kick-off is at 7pm.

Seattle slid by the struggling California Victory in San Francisco on the weekend with a Leighton O'Brien penalty conversion earning the valuable three points on the road and taking the Sounders into sole possession of first place in the USL First Division. The 1-0 victory was the tenth shutout of the year for Sounders goal keeper Chris Eylander and his veteran defense anchored by central duo Danny Jackson and Taylor Graham.
