Seattle Sounders slide in latest media outlets' MLS Power Rankings

The Seattle Sounders have fallen in the latest editions of media outlets’ MLS Power Rankings.


Seattle is No. 10 on SI.com (No. 7 last week), No. 12 on MLSSoccer.com (No. 10) and No. 13 on ESPNFC.com (No. 8).


The Sounders went 0-1-1 this past week, needing a 94th-minute equalizer from Nicolas Lodeiro to save a point in Houston before losing 4-2 on the road to the Timbers.


The team had made a real push in the rankings last week as it entered on a four-game unbeaten run and looked revitalized after the addition of Lodeiro and interim head coach Brian Schmetzer.


The Sounders have a bye this weekend during the international break before traveling to San Jose to take on the Earthquakes on Saturday, Sept. 10, a team directly above them in the Western Conference standings.
