The contest was marked by eight total bookings and three ejections, beginning with a second yellow card for Sounders FC captain Brad Evans in the 69th minute. Despite playing with only ten men at the time, the Rave Green rallied to secure an equalizer down the stretch, as Dylan Remick served in a corner-kick in the 79th minute that fell to Seattle forward Obafemi Martins.
