Major League Soccer named Seattle Sounders midfielder Cristian Roldan to its Week 7 Team of the Week bench for his performance in a 2-2 draw at Sporting Kansas City on Sunday.
Roldan scored a one-timed shot from the top of the 18-yard-box in the 73rd minute for his first goal of the season. He also completed 85 percent of his passes and had 12 recoveries on defense. Roldan’s nomination is the first of the season for the Sounders.
