Sounders Taking the CONCACAF Cup Show to Spokane for a 'Home' Game
Alright, here's something you don't see every day: the Seattle Sounders are heading to Spokane to play what's officially their home match in the CONCACAF Champions Cup. Yeah, you read that right. Soccer is taking over Washington in 2026, and the Rave Green are bringing the action to Eastern Washington for this one. It's a wild move, but the Sounders are rolling with it as they push deeper into the competition.
The Spokane Situation
Look, we all know Lumen Field is the real home. That's where the 12s pack the house and the noise is deafening. But sometimes the league and cup organizers have other ideas, and this year that means a trip to Spokane. The Sounders and Reign FC are both bringing their soccer firepower to Washington's other major city, so at least you've got options if you want to catch some soccer action statewide. It's not the typical Seattle setup, but it's what we're working with in 2026.
Building Momentum Before the Road Trip
The Sounders have been putting together some solid performances heading into this stretch. They picked up three points with a 1-0 road win over the San Jose Earthquakes on March 15, with Paul Rothrock lighting the lamp on the road to open the scoring. That's the kind of road resilience you need when you're grinding through a packed schedule with international cup competitions mixed in.
Speaking of international duty, Cristian Roldan has been called up to the U.S. Men's National Team for March friendlies, which is a huge honor for the midfield leader. Meanwhile, midfielder Danny Musovski got the nod from the North Macedonia National Team for their FIFA World Cup 2026 UEFA Playoffs push. When your guys are getting called up to their national teams, you know you've got talent on the roster.
Looking Ahead
The Sounders have plenty to handle between now and the Spokane showdown. Single match tickets for the 2026 MLS regular season are live now if you want to lock in your seats for Lumen Field action, but for this CONCACAF Champions Cup leg, you're heading east. The competition doesn't get any easier, and neither does the travel. Let's see if the Rave Green can keep rolling.
