Jordan Morris Took Over and the Sounders Just Keep Winning: 6 Straight Without a Loss

The Seattle Sounders are on an absolute tear right now, and Saturday night at Lumen Field proved exactly why nobody in the league wants to face them right now. Jordan Morris had a goal and an assist as Seattle dismantled FC Dallas 2-1, extending their unbeaten streak to six straight matches (5-0-1 in that run). With a 6-1-1 record and 19 points, the Sounders are playing the kind of soccer that makes you sit back and wonder if this team has finally figured something out.

Morris Is Having a Moment

Morris was the difference maker on the night, and it showed from the opening minutes. The Sounders struck first when Jackson Ragen sent a long ball down the right wing to Morris. He spotted Jesus Ferreira trailing the play just inside the 18-yard box and fired a pass that led to Ferreira's goal, which deflected off Dallas defender Lalas Abubakar and past goalie Michael Collodi.

But Morris wasn't done. In the 30th minute, the Sounders doubled their lead when Hassani Dotson sent a pass up the field to Snyder Brunell, who threaded a through ball to Morris on the breakaway. Morris lifted a beautiful shot over the onrushing Collodi with the outside of his right foot. That's the kind of finish you see from a guy playing with total confidence.

Dallas Made It Interesting, But Not Enough

Dallas pulled within 2-1 in the 40th minute when Santiago Moreno's corner found Nolan Norris outside the near post, and he flicked a header into the far corner for his first MLS goal. The visitors then had a chance to level things when Ferreira stepped up to a penalty kick in the 54th minute, but Collodi made a diving save to his left.

The Sounders' goalkeeper Andrew Thomas was solid, making five saves to secure the win. Dallas goalie Collodi finished with four saves, including that penalty stop, but it wasn't enough to keep his team in this one.

Dallas (3-3-4, 13 points) is now winless in its last four matches (0-2-2) and historically struggles at Lumen Field, sitting 1-13-4 all-time at the venue. The Sounders, meanwhile, are building something special. Next match is coming, and the way Seattle is playing right now, anybody on the schedule better be ready.
