The Sounders and University of Washington played to a 1-0 result in a scrimmage today at Starfire. What appeared to be a mismatch on paper remained a tightly contested game until about midway through the second 30-minute half when Fredy Montero scored the game’s only goal on a low-driven shot from the top of the penalty box. Montero was among many other familiar Sounders names as the team looked to stay sharp during a bye week for them in the MLS. Even with most of the Sounders’ starting lineup playing, UW held firm in defense and even possessed the ball at times, getting a few chances on goal of their own. The final whistle left both teams looking slightly disappointed, UW for coming so close to an unexpected draw and the Sounders for not putting more balls in the back of the net.
