Morris Scores Late Winner as Sounders Edge Colorado; Dynamo Sell Ponce to Elche, Red Bull NY Snags Jimenez

The Seattle Sounders slipped into Colorado’s altitude on Tuesday night and walked away with a 1‑0 victory, courtesy of a 78‑minute strike from Jordan Morris (Fox Sports). The lone goal broke a tense stalemate and gave the Pacific Northwest side three points on the road, a result the club’s forward called “a hard‑fought three‑point win” (Fox Sports).

Across the league, Houston Dynamo confirmed the departure of Argentine striker Ezequiel Ponce, who has been sold to La Liga 2 outfit Elche. The move was announced on the club’s official site, with Dynamo GM Tom Glick wishing the 27‑year‑old “the best in his next chapter” (MLS.com). Ponce, who logged three goals in 13 appearances this season, will now look to revive his career in Spain.

In New York, Red Bull New York completed the full acquisition of forward Mijahir Jiménez. The club’s technical director highlighted the signing, saying Jiménez “brings a dynamic edge to our attack” as the team continues to shape its roster for the final stretch (MLS.com).

“We needed that win,” Morris added after the match, underscoring Seattle’s resolve in a tightly contested fixture.

“We wish Ezequiel the best in his next chapter,” Glick said of the Dynamo transfer.

“Mijahir brings a dynamic edge to our attack,” the Red Bull New York representative noted on the acquisition.

These three storylines—Seattle’s narrow road triumph, Houston’s striker exit, and New York’s offensive boost—define the MLS narrative over the past 24 hours.
