Match Recap

D. Joveljic struck twice to give Seattle Sounders a 2-1 lead well into the second half, only for Chicago Fire to snatch a point in the 82nd minute and deny the Sounders a result they badly needed. Joveljic opened the scoring in the 12th minute, and after M. Haile-Selassie leveled for the visitors just before the break, he restored Seattle's advantage three minutes into the second half. For a side without a win in their last five Major League Soccer outings, that lead felt significant. Chicago, sitting third in the table with 37 points and three wins from their previous five games, kept pushing. R. Lewandowski's 82nd-minute strike completed the Fire's fightback, leaving the Sounders level when the final whistle went. Two Joveljic goals, one Lewandowski answer with eight minutes to spare, see how it all unfolded.
