Raul Ruidiaz - Still out Friday Ruidiaz (hamstring) is not in the squad for Friday's match against LAFC.

Impact Ruidiaz remains out Friday despite training partially this week in his return from a hamstring injury. It's his fourth-straight absence and unless he can recover quickly in the next few days, it's hard to see him starting Tuesday's match against Dallas. Will Bruin remains up front for the Sounders while Ruidiaz is out.

Raul Ruidiaz - Game time decision for Friday Ruidiaz (hamstring) is listed as questionable in Seattle's injury report for Friday's clash against LAFC.

Impact Ruidiaz has missed the Sounder's last three consecutive MLS games with a hamstring injury, and he's featured just once in his side's last eight games since mid-June. He was able to participate in partial training this week, so there is a chance that he will be available to feature off the bench at least in Friday's big Western Conference clash, but it's almost certain that he won't be ready to start yet.

Impact Morris scored a goal in the 43rd minute to erase Colorado's early lead. With seven shots total, Morris put a large amount of pressure on the Colorado defense. After scoring six goals in 17 appearances, Morris started the season slowly but is beginning to trend upward with three goals in his past six matches. If he is able to keep his consistency for the remainder of the 2022 season, Morris is likely to be a key part of the starting XI.
