Beyond the Box Score presented by Compass Minerals: Russell and Sporting sink Seattle again - Sporting Kansas City

For Vermes in particular, Saturday was nothing short of historic. In addition to taking sole possession of fourth place in league history with his 171st regular season coaching win, the American soccer legend cemented his 17th MLS Cup Playoff appearance as a player or a coach. No other person has made more trips to the MLS postseason.

The stakes were decidedly high this weekend—Seattle and Sporting are embroiled in a battle for the No. 1 seed in the West with two weeks left in the regular season—and the spectacle that unfolded at Lumen Field certainly didn’t disappoint.

Walter fired Sporting ahead early, only for the Sounders to grow into the game and equalize in the 58th minute through Nicolas Benezet. With 11 minutes remaining and the contest delicately poised, Sporting orchestrated a stunning 38-pass sequence that was punctuated by Roger Espinoza’s inch-perfect diagonal through ball to Russell, who took a settling touch and tucked low into the corner past Seattle goalkeeper Stefan Frei.

Alas, Russell has pushed his remarkable scoring streak to seven consecutive regular season matches, the longest in club history and the longest in MLS this year. Only three MLS players—Josef Martinez, Carlos Vela and Diego Valeri—have pieced together longer regular season scoring streaks.
