Lodeiro GOAT article cover-2

The top moment from Seattle’s 2022 season is also incidentally one of the top moments in club history and, really, all of MLS history. The club’s Concacaf Champions League title was of massive historical magnitude, as the Sounders became the first-ever MLS club to win the modern iteration of the continental tournament.

The victory was delivered by a spectacular performance in the second leg of the CCL Final at Lumen Field on May 4, which saw Seattle take a 3-0 victory to win the series 5-2 on aggregate. The final flourish was this 88th-minute rebound finish from captain Nicolás Lodeiro, which set off a magical scene at Lumen Field as a wild celebration ensued.
