MINNESOTA 1, SOUNDERS 1: Cristian Roldan has scored some good goals during his Sounders career but none have been with quite the authority of the equalizer he scored on Saturday. Roldan was able to collect a loose ball near the top of the penalty area and put his laces through a wonderfully slicing ball that nearly tore through the net.

MINNESOTA 1, SOUNDERS 0: Moments after Jordan Morris narrowly missed giving the Sounders an early lead, Ike Opara head in a free kick.

LINEUPS: Five of the six formerly injured Seattle Sounders made the gameday roster, but only two of them are in the starting lineup. Victor Rodriguez effectively replaces Harry Shipp, while Chad Marshall is in for Román Torres. Raúl Ruidíaz, Will Bruin and Nouhou are all available off the bench. Saad Abdul-Salaam replaces the suspended Kelvin Leerdam as well.

Minnesota United is also a bit short-handed as Darwin Quintero is not in the starting lineup.

Keys to the Game:

• Minnesota is vulnerable at the back. Assuming the Sounders can start their first choice attack, they will need to dribble at the backline.
• Darwin Quintero is tricky. One of Cristian Roldan and Jordy Delem will need to make sure to keep track of him drifting into midfield.
