Minnesota United takes Game 1 with Seattle Sounders; St. Clair makes a save in penalty shootout
Dayne St. Clair made a key save in the shootout and Minnesota United beat the Seattle Sounders 3-2 on penalty kicks on Monday night after the two clubs dueled to a scoreless draw in regulation of the best-of-three first-round opener.
Seattle hosts Game 2 on Nov. 3.
St. Clair stayed central to deny Álex Roldán’s penalty kick. Then Seattle midfielder Cristian Roldan hit the crossbar in the fourth round.
Kelvin Yeboah, Nectarios Triantis and Joaquín Pereyra each made a penalty kick for Minnesota. Julian Gressel had a chance to win it for Minnesota, but his attempt went off the post.
Then Seattle midfielder Danny Leyva also went off the post to hand it to Minnesota.
Last year, Minnesota won two penalty kick shootouts in a first round series to advance to the Western Conference semifinals.
Seattle entered with a commanding 12-3-2 record over Minnesota in regular-season play, but Minnesota won both prior matchups against the Sounders this year.
A whimsical world of whiskers, creativity, and community took over Seattle Center this weekend as POP Cats 2026 returned for a celebration of all things feline. The immersive convention turned the Exhibition Hall into a vibrant ‘cat city,’ complete with colorful art installations, interactive exhibits and endless photo ops. From adoptable rescue cats and hands-on workshops to cosplay, shopping, and meetups with fellow cat lovers, the event blended fun with purpose. Attendees could even bring their own cats, making it one of the few conventions where pets are part of the experience. Felines and their human friends embraced a joyful, cat-filled escape and one meow-velous weekend in Seattle. (Image: Elizabeth Crook / Seattle Refined) April 18, 2026{ }

Thanks to Carrie Brown for the westward view of our Saturday night sunset. The high today hit 68 at the airport – eight degrees above normal – but nowhere near the record for this date, which was 89 degrees back in 2016. The forecast suggests two more days of partly sunny, almost-70-degree weather, before the chance of rain returns.
