Sends four crosses in defeat

Arriola had two shots (one on goal) and four crosses (two accurate) in Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Los Angeles Galaxy.

Analysis: Arriola wasn't particularly accurate with the end product, but in a game where the Sounders didn't do much offensively, the winger was one of their standout players. Arriola has been limited to just three starts in the current MLS campaign, but if he stays healthy, he should see more playing time after the 2026 FIFA World Cup break.

Recovered from injury

Arriola (groin) is back with the team for upcoming fixtures after manager Brian Schmetzer confirmed his availability for Saturday's game versus Sporting Kansas City, per Jackson Felts of KJR Radio.

Analysis: Arriola was limited in training at the beginning of the week but regained enough fitness to be an option again following a one-game absence. The attacker made his first two starts of the season just before getting hurt, but he failed to make a big impact. In any case, his return adds a solid asset in the rotation with Jordan Morris and Paul Rothrock on the wings.
