Stefan Frei Taken Off Field in Ambulance as Sounders and Crew Play to 1-1 Tie
- Seattle Sounders goalkeeper Stefan Frei suffered a head injury after colliding with a Columbus Crew player's knee and was taken off in an ambulance on Sunday.
- The injury occurred deep in stoppage time during a Major League Soccer match at Lumen Field, leading both coaches to agree to end the game prematurely.
- Columbus led 1-0 after Diego Rossi's tenth goal in the 27th minute, but Seattle's Paul Rothrock equalized in the 43rd, resulting in a 1-1 draw as Columbus pursued a late corner kick.
- Seattle coach Brian Schmetzer said Frei was alert and moving his fingers as he left the field, adding, "I don't want to downplay it," while Columbus coach Wilfried Nancy noted the referee should have stopped the game.
- Frei, 39, has played for Seattle since 2014, achieved over 1,000 regular-season saves, and helped win MLS Cups in 2016 and 2019, but his injury casts uncertainty on his immediate playing status.
