ST. LOUIS — Eduard Löwen opened the scoring with a goal in the 15th minute and St. Louis City beat the Seattle Sounders 1-0. Löwen scored on a set piece, blasting a free kick from 25 yards that slipped inside the post to give St. Louis (2-0-2) a 1-0 lead. Ben Lundt made his first start of the season for St. Louis, finished with a save and recorded his first career shutout in MLS. The 29-year-old Lundt replaced Roman Bürki, who broke a bone in his hand during training on Friday and will see a specialist in the coming days. Seattle (1-2-1) had 65% possession but had just one shot on goal, while St. Louis finished with six. Stefan Frei had five saves for the Sounders.
