Lamar Neagle 0927

Score: Sounders FC 4 vs. Chivas USA 2
Site: CenturyLink Field
Records: Sounders FC (18-9-3, 57 points). Chivas USA (6-18-6, 24 points).

Man of the Match: Obafemi Martins had two goals and an assist to become Sounders FC’s top single-season scorer in club history. On Saturday afternoon he was at his best, playing, as DeAndre Yedlin once put it, like he’s playing FIFA. He danced, ducked, dived and dodged his way around the Chivas defense throughout the match and extended his team-leading totals with 15 goals and 10 assists.


Telling Stat: In three matches against Chivas this year, Martins had five goals and one assist, including two braces. In five career matches against Chivas, he has six goals and three assists.


What You Missed: Before the match, Zach Scott was honored for his 300th career match for the Sounders from the two different eras. Owner and General Manager Adrian Hanauer presented Scott with a framed jersey commemorating his 300th game and the Emerald City Supporters raised a display honoring his milestone. Scott was out of the lineup after suffering an ankle injury on Wednesday against FC Dallas.


So What: Seattle regained its offensive form with its four-goal performance, reclaiming a three-point lead in the Supporters’ Shield standings over the LA Galaxy, which faces the New York Red Bulls on Sunday at the StubHub Center. The Sounders' 18th win matches a club record, set in 2011, while Martins and Clint Dempsey eclipsed the club’s all-time record for a scoring tandem with 28 goals, surpassing the 27 scored by Eddie Johnson and Fredy Montero scored in 2012.
