Congratulations to the Seattle Sounders.

On Saturday afternoon they captured their first-ever Supporters' Shield trophy after securing the best record in the 2014 MLS regular season (20-10-4, 64 pts.). The Sounders beat the LA Galaxy 2-0 in front of 57,673 fans at CenturyLink Field in a match televised on NBC.

The match was a winner-take-all decider for the trophy, as the LA Galaxy could have claimed an MLS-record fifth Shield had they been able to defeat the Sounders.

As it stands, the Sounders are still very much on track for an unprecedented treble of trophies: the Supporters' Shield, MLS Cup and the US Open Cup, which they won in September.

They kick off their quest for MLS Cup when the Western Conference Semifinals kick off on the weekend of November 1-2. Should the Sounders advance all the way to MLS Cup, they will host the final on December 7.
