Disputed penalty in final minutes gives Whitecaps a 1-1 draw against Sounders
Ryan Gauld scored on a penalty kick in the fifth minute of second half stoppage time, and the Vancouver Whitecaps salvaged a 1-1 draw with the Seattle SoundersMAY 19, 2024 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Yeimar Gomez Andrade - Starting versus Whitecaps Gomez (quadriceps) makes the initial lineup to face Vancouver Whitecaps on Saturday.
Impact Gomez recovered quickly from an injury setback and was selected to feature at center-back in this game. He previously stood out in terms of defensive stats as he made six or more clearances in four of his last eight matches played. His presence in the lineup moves Jonathan Bell to the bench.
MAY 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Obed Vargas - Reappears Saturday Vargas (calf) is back in the lineup for Saturday's game versus Vancouver Whitecaps.
Impact Vargas should be a two-way contributor now that he's fit, having scored and assisted once while winning 20 of his 29 tackles throughout 10 matches played this season. He wasn't sidelined for long due to the injury, and his return is great news for the squad as he's able to take Leo Chu's (hip) place in the lineup.
MAY 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Raul Ruidiaz - Starts versus Vancouver Ruidiaz (foot) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's clash against Vancouver Whitecaps.
Impact Ruidiaz will lead the front line Saturday at the expense of Daniel Musovski. The experienced striker, who missed one league game with the problem, is the team's top scorer with seven goals across 12 appearances in 2024. He'll likely remain a solid source of shots and perhaps a few set pieces while he's on the pitch.
MAY 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Yeimar Gomez Andrade - Questionable once more Yeimar is questionable for Saturday's clash with Vancouver, according to the MLS injury report.
Impact Yeimar made his return with seven minutes off the bench mid week but it appears his quad injury is still bugging him. The defender would be a consistent starter if deemed fit enough to play, but that is far from guaranteed, even after the bench minutes.

Josh Atencio - Likely to miss Wednesday's game Atencio (hamstring) is in heavy doubt for Wednesday's Open Cup match against Phoenix, as manager Brian Schmetzer stated, "It would be a miracle if he played," per Niko Moreno of So...
Impact Atencio looks to be likely to miss yet another week of action, as he is already ruled out for Saturday's match against Vancouver but is now in heavy doubt for the Open Cup contest on Wednesday. He will likely face a fitness test to decide his availability, but at the moment, most signs point to the midfielder being out.
MAY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Leo Chu - Out three to four weeks Chu (hip) will miss around three to four weeks with his issues, according to manager Brian Schmetzer, per Niko Moreno of Sounder at Heart.
Impact Chu will miss a decent portion of time with the problems he recently picked up, as he is now expected to not return until mid-June. He has started in six of his 10 appearances on the team sheet, so his absence will force a change, with Jordan Morris likely starting in every match now that Chu is out. He will now hope for no setbacks, with his next chance of a return likely being against Minnesota on June 15.
MAY 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Albert Rusnak - Slow day versus former team Rusnak recorded one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and four corners in Wednesday's 2-0 defeat to Real Salt Lake.
Impact Rusnak led Seattle on Wednesday with four corners but was unable to pick the pass that would unlock the Real Salt Lake defense, as Seattle fell 0-2. He contributed two tackles (one won) and an interception to the defensive effort. Rusnak has made 11 appearances (eight starts) to begin 2024 and is averaging 3.36 chances created per appearance.
MAY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Danny Musovski - Returns to starting XI Musovski generated two shots (two on goal) in Wednesday's 2-0 loss versus Real Salt Lake.
Impact Musovski was handed his second start of the season Wednesday as Seattle fell 0-2 to Real Salt Lake. Musovski was selected to a heavily rotated Seattle squad that featured six changes from their previous matchup versus Portland. His two shots on target led the team and accounted for the totality of Seattle's attacking threat. Musovski has largely played a bench role for Seattle to begin 2024, making 12 appearances (two starts), scoring once and supplying one assist.
MAY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Stefan Frei - Seven saves in loss Frei had seven saves and allowed two goals in Wednesday's 2-0 loss to Real Salt Lake.
Impact Frei tuned aside a season-high seven shots and conceded twice Wednesday as Seattle fell 0-2 to Real Salt Lake. Frei has made 11 saves, allowed three goals and recorded one clean sheet in three matches since returning from suspension. Frei's next test should come in the form of a weekend matchup at home versus Cascadia Cup rival Vancouver who have scored just three goals in their most recent five matches.

Leo Chu - Adductor injury confirmed Chu was subbed off due to an adductor injury in the 21st minute of Wednesday's 2-0 defeat against Real Salt Lake. According to head coach Brian Schmetzer, "He has an adductor injur...
Impact Chu was taken off early in the match Wednesday after suffering an adductor injury. He's seen three starts in four appearances since returning from a knee injury. The midfielder continues to struggle with injury, with this new injury likely to keep him out for a few games.
MAY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Nouhou Tolo - Cleared to play Tolo has served his one match suspension and is set to be an option for Saturday's match against Vancouver.
Impact Tolo is set to return to left back for the Sounders over Cody Barker, having started all 11 matches played. He's been averaging about three clearances and 2.8 crosses per game, with 21 clearances and 18 crosses (five accurate) in the last seven contests.

RSL's unbeaten streak stretches to 9 with 2-0 win over the Sounders
Andres Gomez and Diego Luna both scored to give Real Salt Lake a 2-0 victory over the Seattle Sounders and extend their undefeated streak to nine straight league matchesMAY 16, 2024 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Yeimar Gomez Andrade - Returns to bench Wednesday Gomez (quadriceps) is a bench option in Wednesday's game against Real Salt Lake.
Impact Gomez was inactive in the previous league match but regained fitness as expected ahead of the midweek duel. The central man may not see a lot of minutes yet as he looks to challenge Jonathan Bell and Jackson Ragen at some point.
MAY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Obed Vargas - Added to injury report Vargas (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's match against Real Salt Lake.
Impact Vargas could be heading back to the sidelines, as after a two-match absence earlier in the season due to an injury, he is now dealing with a calf complication. However, the club will hope for him to be an option, as he has started in all but one match he has been available for. If he is left out, Leo Chu will be his likely replacement.
MAY 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Raul Ruidiaz - Questionable to face RSL Ruidaz (foot) is questionable for Wednesday's match against Real Salt Lake.
Impact Ruidaz has been added to the injury report, as he is dealing with a foot injury he appears to have picked up over the week. He is a regular starter, so he will hope to get the start immediately if fit. However, the club may choose to ease him back in by placing him on the bench or out completely, leaving Danny Musovski as his most likely replacement.

Josh Atencio - Set for another two weeks absence Atencio (hamstring) is not expected to return until the May 22 Open Cup match versus the Phoenix Rising, per Jeremiah Oshan of Sounders at Heart.
Impact Atencio picked up a hamstring injury and is set for a two weeks absence at minimum. Prior to getting injured, the midfielder made six starts the last seven games, recording 13 interceptions, 15 tackles and eight clearances in that span. Both Cristian Roldan and Joao Paulo is set to get the start in the defensive midfield for Seattle.
MAY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Pedro De la Vega - Set for return Saturday De la Vega (hamstring) is expected to make his return to action for Saturday's match against Vancouver, according to manager Brian Schmetzer, per Jackson Felts of Sounders Weekly....
Impact De la Vega is finally set to return after picking up an issue in the second match of the season, which shouldn't come as a surprise after he was involved in team training last week. He will likely start on the bench after the extended absence, getting time to test his legs before making a full return. However, he will hope to shape out a starting spot now that he is fit, as he did start in one of his two appearances before injury.
