Musovski and Rusnák score against former team, and the Sounders beat RSL 2-0 for 1st win since May
Danny Musovski and Albert Rusnák scored as Andrew Thomas earned his eighth clean sheet, giving Seattle its first win since May 13.
On Wednesday night, the Seattle Sounders beat Real Salt Lake 2-0 at Lumen Field, snapping a club-record 13-game winless streak in MLS play.
Danny Musovski opened the scoring in the 48th minute with a shot from outside the 18-yard box, while Albert Rusnák added a second goal against his former team to secure the win.
RSL entered the match with 10 players unavailable due to injuries and call-ups, while Sounders coach Brian Schmetzer made five lineup changes, including the return of defender Jackson Ragen.
Victory moves the Sounders to 32 points, placing them in a tie with Portland for the ninth and final playoff spot with one game in hand.
Saturday brings back-to-back MLS action: the Sounders host Minnesota United at home, while RSL returns to face New England in their next scheduled matchup.
