Generation adidas Cup Day 8 recap: Seattle advance to U-17 final | MLSSoccer.com Seattle Sounders FC are a club of trophies. On Sunday, they will compete for another.
Jordan Morris - Creates two chances in loss Morris took a shot and created two chances in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against FC Cincinnati.
Impact Morris was active from the left wing on Saturday, but he wasn't able to extend his scoring streak to three games as his side slumped to a defeat against Cincinnati. Still, he's off to a flying start this season with three goals from seven shots (four on target) and six chances created in 2023.

Fredy Montero - Takes two shots in start Montero took two shots and won one of one tackles before being hooked at the hour mark of Saturday's 1-0 defeat against FC Cincinnati.
Impact Montero got the start up front against Cincinnati on Saturday with Heber (hamstring) out and Raul Ruidiaz (hamstring) still working his way back up to full fitness, but Montero is the Soudners' third-choice striker at best when everyone is fit and available.
MARCH 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Raul Ruidiaz - Takes two shots off bench Ruidiaz subbed into Saturday's match against FC Cincinnati in the 58th minute, taking two shots and making a clearance in the 1-0 defeat.
Impact Ruidiaz has taken four shots (one on target) across just over 40 minutes of game time off the bench this season as he makes his way back from a hamstring injury. He might be fit enough to start over Fredy Montero by next weekend's clash against LAFC.
MARCH 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Stefan Frei - Concedes goal to Cincinnati Frei made zero saves and conceded a goal in Saturday's 1-0 defeat against FC Cincinnati.
Impact Frei was beaten by a Brenner strike Saturday for his first goal allowed in this campaign. He'll face another tough opponent next weekend in the defending MLS champions LAFC, which have already scored seven goals through two games this season.
MARCH 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Nouhou Tolo - Extends contract with Seattle Tolo has signed a three-year contract extension with the Sounders with the option to add another year, the club announced Wednesday.
Impact Tolo has taken a step up in Seattle recently, with one goal and two assists in 33 MLS appearances (31 starts) mostly at left-back since the start of 2022. He also won the CONCACAF Champions League with the club last season and started for Cameroon at the World Cup in Qatar, and the 25-year-old has now signed on through the 2025 campaign at least.

Heber - Out with hamstring injury Heber will miss Saturday's clash against FC Cincinnati with a hamstring strain he suffered in training, Sounders manager Brian Schmetzer told team reporter Jackson Felts on Thursda...
Impact Heber has been very effective up front for Seattle to begin the season, but he might be set for a spell on the sidelines after injuring his hamstring during training Wednesday. Raul Ruidiaz (hamstring) will take over as the first-choice striker once he's fully fit, but Fredy Montero could get the start against Cincinnati if Ruidiaz isn't quite ready yet.

Obed Vargas - Out against RSL Vargas (back) was not involved in Saturday's victory against Real Salt Lake.
Impact Vargas is still working his way back from a back injury that he's been dealing with for roughly nine months now. He is almost fit enough to return to the squad but there's no reason for the Sounders to rush the 17-year-old's recovery.

MARCH 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Albert Rusnak - Takes three shots against Salt Lake Rusnak took three shots and created two chances in Saturday's 2-0 victory against RSL. He also made a block in the match.

MARCH 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Joao Paulo - Creates two chances in win Paulo took a shot and created two chances in Saturday's 2-0 victory against Real Salt Lake. He also made a clearance, two interceptions and won two of four tackles in the match.

Stefan Frei - Keeps clean sheet against Salt Lake Frei made two saves and kept a clean sheet in Saturday's 2-0 victory against Real Salt Lake.

Heber - Scores goal against Salt Lake Heber took six shots (five on target) and scored a goal in Saturday's 2-0 victory against Real Salt Lake. He also created two chances and won one of one tackles in the match.
Impact Heber has already notched two goals from 10 shots (seven on target) across Seattle's first two games of the season, and he's not even the first-choice striker. Raul Ruidiaz (hamstring) might be fit to start soon, but Heber will still be a very dangerous backup for this very dangerous Sounders team.
MARCH 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Jordan Morris - Scores goal against Salt Lake Morris took three shots and scored a goal in Saturday's 2-0 victory against Real Salt Lake. He also made a clearance and created two chances in the match.
