Lamar Neagle scored a late winner to seal a comeback win for Seattle Sounders over Vancouver Whitecaps in the MLS.
The hosts had the perfect start to the game when they took the lead in the eighth minute when Andy Rose beat the offside trap and fired a shot past Brad Knighton into the net.
Vancouver were level immediately as Russell Teibert lifted a cross into the penalty area and Camilo Sanvezzo powered a header past Michael Gspuring.
The Whitecaps duo combined with great success again in the 25th minute when Teibert curled a free kick into the box and Sanvezzo met the cross with a diving header that flew into the bottom corner to give his side the lead.
After the break, the visitors could have had a third but both Sanvezzo and Nigel Reo-Coker were denied within seconds of each other by Gspurning, who made two great stops to keep his team in the game.
Seattle were handed a way back into the game in the 69th minute when Neagle was fouled in the penalty area by Greg Klazura. The referee pointed to the spot and Servando Carrasco made no mistake in firing his effort into the top corner.
The Sounders pushed on from their equaliser and found a winner in the 81st minute when Obafemi Martins fired a ball across the face of goal where Neagle turned it home to complete his side's comeback.
