Robin Lod scored in the 81st minute to give Minnesota United its first-ever MLS win over the Seattle Sounders, 1-0, on Sunday afternoon in Saint Paul, Minn.
Lod, left alone at the back post, tapped in Niko Hansen s crossing pass with his left foot past Seattle goalie Stefan Cleveland for his third goal of the season. It was just the ninth goal of the season allowed this season by the Sounders, fewest in MLS.
Tyler Miller finished with three saves for the Loons (5-5-3, 18 points), who had managed just one draw in eight previous meetings with the Sounders since joining the league in 2017.
