What happened: Seba supplied the opening goal in the clubs’ first meeting. The match is Seattle’s second of three interleague fixtures in Phase One.

Why it matters: Three places in the 2027 Concacaf Champions Cup are at stake in the tournament. The early lead gives Seattle room to manage a match with table implications.

What to watch: Seattle hosts Chivas on Aug. 12 in its final Phase One match.
