ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) – Dane St. Clair made a key save in the shootout and Minnesota United defeated the Seattle Sounders 3-2 in a shootout on Monday night after the first-round opener ended in a scoreless draw between the two clubs in best-of-three regulation.<\/p>\n

Seattle will host Game 2 on November 3rd.<\/p>\n

St. Clair stayed in the middle and denied Alex Roldan’s penalty. And Seattle midfielder Cristian Roldan hit the crossbar in the fourth round.<\/p>\n

For Minnesota, Kelvin Yeboah, Nektarios Triantis and Joaquin Pereira each converted penalties. Minnesota’s Julian Gressel had a chance, but his shot hit the post.<\/p>\n

Then Seattle midfielder Danny Leyva also came off the post, giving the ball to Minnesota.<\/p>\n

Last year, Minnesota won the first round series in two shootouts and advanced to the Western Conference semifinals.<\/p>\n

Seattle had an underwhelming 12-3-2 record against Minnesota in regular season play, but Minnesota won both of its previous meetings with the Sounders this year.<\/p>\n
