The Seattle Sounders matched their rivals' scoreline with a dominant 4-1 win of their own over St. Louis City SC at Lumen Field in Major League Soccer on May 4, 2025. A blistering start from the Sounders saw them score three early goals, overwhelming the expansion side and cruising to a comfortable victory. Jordan Morris and Raúl Ruidíaz were on the scoresheet as Seattle's attack clicked into high gear. St. Louis City pulled a goal back before halftime to offer a brief hope, but Seattle extinguished any comeback thoughts with a fourth goal early in the second half. The result reinforces Seattle's status as a Western Conference powerhouse, while St. Louis's difficult second season continues. Sounders coach Brian Schmetzer was delighted with his team's intensity, and St. Louis's Bradley Carnell lamented a disastrous opening twenty minutes.
