SEATTLE -- By his own admission, Cristian Roldan was trying to be a nuisance.He wound up being the hero.Roldan broke a tie in the 31st minute, and the Seattle Sounders wrapped up an MLS playoff berth with a 2-1 victory over Real Salt Lake on Sunday in the regular-season finale.The Sounders (14-14-6, 48 points) made the playoffs for the eighth year in a row. They have never missed the postseason since joining MLS in 2009. Seattle will go in as the Wests No. 4 seed, hosting Sporting Kansas City in a knockout round game on Thursday night.Real Salt Lake (12-12-10, 46 points) also got in, thanks to Portlands 4-1 loss at Vancouver that eliminated the defending champion Timbers. RSL will be the Wests No. 6 seed and visit Los Angeles on Wednesday.Nicolas Lodeiro helped set up Roldans goal when he floated a corner kick from the left wing side into the box. Goalkeeper Nick Romando slapped away Roman Torres header, but the ball deflected off defender Luke Mulholland, who was standing just to Rimandos right. It went straight to Roldan, who drilled it in from two yards in front for his fourth of the year.I was put in the box to be a pest, and shield guys away from our big guys, from Chad Marshall and Roman, and to pick for them, Roldan said. I was lucky enough to get away from my runners and kick the ball into the back of the net.Roldan, who played out of position on the right side of midfield for part of the day before moving back to his customary center midfield spot, has gotten considerably more playing time since Brian Schmetzer took over as interim head coach in late July.The kid has blossomed -- he does everything, Schmetzer said. That wasnt his normal position tonight, and he showed he can still make an impact in games.The Sounders have blossomed as a whole, going 8-2-4 under Schmetzer during the past 2 1/2 months. Still, they needed a win on Sunday, or a Portland loss -- and got both -- to secure a place in the postseason.The last two results we had (a 0-0 tie with Houston and a 2-1 loss at Dallas) werent wins, and we needed to get into the playoffs on our own, so we didnt have to rely on anybody else, Schmetzer said. We wanted to make sure we get the nice little bump and the confidence and everything that comes along with a win like this against a tough team to beat.The teams traded goals in the first four minutes.Alvaro Fernandez put the Sounders on the board in the third minute with his first of the season, scoring from a yard in front after Jordan Morris sent a nifty backheel pass across the 6-yard box.Just 90 seconds later, Mulholland pulled Salt Lake level. Jordan Allen, under pressure inside the box from Sounders defender Joevin Jones, tapped the ball to his left. Mullholland raced up to it just to the left of the 6-yard box and sent a shallow shot across the goalmouth that slipped just inside the right post for his fourth of the year.Real Salt Lake is winless in its last seven (0-4-3), its last victory coming on Aug. 26 at home against Colorado. But coach Jeff Cassar insisted that as of now, that slump is in the past.Its a new season. What I told the guys is were in the playoffs for our body of work that weve done throughout the year, not what weve done in the last four games, Cassar said.
