Danny Musovski tallied twice as the Seattle Sounders cruised to a 4-0 victory against the Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday night in Carson, Calif.

The Sounders (11-6-8, 41 points) extended their unbeaten streak to seven matches in MLS play (4-0-3) since competing in the FIFA Club World Cup.

Sounders goalkeeper Andrew Thomas, filling in for the injured Stefan Frei (concussion), made three saves in posting the shutout.

The Sounders opened the scoring in the 25th minute. Pedro de la Vega sent a cross from the left wing to the far post. A hard-charging Paul Rothrock got a foot on the ball before it glanced off falling Galaxy defender Julian Aude and into the net.

Seattle doubled its advantage in the 37th minute. Rothrock played a low through ball to Musovski in the penalty area. Los Angeles goalkeeper Novak Micovic made a diving save on Musovski’s original 12-yard shot, but the forward pounced on the rebound and poked it into the net from the top of the 6-yard box.

The Galaxy (3-15-7, 16 points), who failed to put a shot on net in the first half, had two chances in the opening five minutes of the second, but Thomas made a diving stop against Matheus Nascimento and a routine save versus Gabriel Pec.

The Sounders essentially put the match away in the 54th minute. Cristian Roldan played a pass to de la Vega at the top left of the penalty area and he re-routed the ball to Jesus Ferreira for a 12-yard shot that Micovic stopped with a diving save. Musovski was alone at the top of the 6-yard box to tap the rebound into a gaping net.

Snyder Brunell, an 18-year-old making his MLS debut, scored in the 85th minute on an 8-yard shot off a cross from Alex Roldan.

The Sounders were without their leading scorer, midfielder Albert Rusnak (10 goals, seven assists in MLS play), because of a hamstring injury suffered Wednesday in a Leagues Cup match against Club Tijuana.

Luis Muriel scored twice and had an assist and Martin Ojeda had a goal and an assist as host Orlando City SC routed Inter Miami 4-1 on Sunday night.

Orlando City (12-6-8, 44 points) swept the Florida Derby season series with a pair of three-goal victories and leapfrogged Inter Miami (12-5-6, 42 points) in the Eastern Conference standings.

Orlando City remained unbeaten against Inter Miami at home in eight all-time meetings and ascended to fourth place in the East while Miami fell to sixth after suffering its second loss in its past four league matches (1-2-1).

Inter Miami played without superstar forward Lionel Messi, who missed his second consecutive match across all competitions with a mild hamstring injury.

Goalkeeper Oscar Ustari returned to Inter Miami after a five-match absence due to his own hamstring injury, but he was greeted by a relentless barrage of shots.

Ustari made eight saves as Orlando City outshot Inter Miami 22-10 and 12-5 on shots on target.

Muriel struck quickly in the game’s second minute, capitalizing on a great through ball by Ojeda.

Miami leveled the match only three minutes later, however, when defensive midfielder Yannick Bright delivered his first MLS goal on a quick shot off a failed clearance attempt by Orlando.

Orlando City then took control with three second-half goals.

Muriel scored again in the 50th minute. Instead of kicking the ball deep on a corner kick, Ojeda rolled it short toward Muriel, who dribbled past Jordi Alba and fired a quick shot past Ustari.

In the 58th minute, Ojeda controlled a long ball from distance from Muriel, stopped and then snuck a shot just inside the near post from the corner of the 18-yard box past Ustari.

Marco Pasalic put the finishing touches on Orlando’s victory with an unassisted goal in the 88th minute.

Orlando goalkeeper Pedro Gallese suffered an injury scare midway through the second half after making a spectacular save. With Gallese off his line, Luis Suarez fired a deep shot from just across midfield trying to sneak it over him. Gallese recovered enough to swat the ball away but landed awkwardly on his left leg and collapsed into the back of the net. But after being attended to by Orlando’s medical staff, Gallese finished the game.

Wilfried Zaha’s late goal propelled Charlotte FC over a 10-man FC Cincinnati side in a significant 1-0 road victory on Sunday evening.

For Cincinnati (15-7-4, 49 points), the loss is a missed chance to claim first place in the Supporters’ Shield race after the Philadelphia Union lost their Saturday match. Charlotte FC’s (13-11-2, 41 points) triumph means they have completed a regular-season sweep over Cincinnati.

The momentum of the game shifted in the 70th minute when midfielder Tah Brian Anunga picked up a clumsy red card. The Cameroonian stamped on Djibril Diani’s leg while trying to stop a counter-attack.

Zaha and Charlotte capitalized on their numbers advantage 15 minutes later. Idan Toklomati set up the goal when he headed a stray ball in the box toward Zaha. Zaha’s one-touch volley squeaked by Cincinnati keeper Roman Celentano (three saves) at the near post to give Charlotte the only goal of the match.

The goal marked Zaha’s seventh of the season and Toklomati’s second assist.

Charlotte FC, missing leading goalscorer Pep Biel (hamstring) and captain Ashley Westwood (yellow card suspension), struggled to get into the game and win possession early. They attempted just one shot in the first half and struggled to link up play in the final third.

Zaha couldn’t deal with Cincinnati’s physicality and looked frustrated during the game’s stoppages. They relied on a clutch performance from goalkeeper Kristijan Kahlina (seven saves).

Cincinnati kept applying pressure on Charlotte’s defense as the second half continued, shooting 16 times in total.

Charlotte rarely advanced the ball near the final third. Kahlina parried away several shots from Ender Echenique and Anunga, and Cincinnati looked fully in control.

Darren Yapi scored his first career brace to lift the visiting Colorado Rapids to a 2-1 victory at the Minnesota United on Sunday in Saint Paul, Minn.

Yapi’s fifth and sixth goals of the season came 10 minutes apart in the second half for Colorado (9-11-6, 33 points), which snapped a nine-match road league winless streak.

It was perfect timing for a good game from the 20-year-old, coming in the first league match after Colorado dealt joint team scoring leader Djordje Mihailovic to Toronto for a fee worth up to $9 million.

Zack Steffen made nine saves for the Rapids, who moved up two places to eighth in the Western Conference standings in the scrap for nine conference playoff places.

Tani Oluwaseyi cut Minnesota’s late deficit in half with his 10th league goal after also scoring three times in Leagues Cup play.

But the third-place Loons (12-6-8, 44 points) have now lost back-to-back games in all competitions.

Minnesota outshot Colorado 9-4 during the first half but rarely seriously worked Steffen.

Colorado grew into the game after the break and had already created a couple quality opportunities before Yapi broke through for his brace.

In the 60th minute, Yapi ran onto Sam Vines’ long outlet ball down the left, then cut in on his right foot and guided a low finish beyond Dayne St. Clair into the bottom left corner.

In the 70th, he was a late-arriving runner as the Rapids pushed numbers forward on the counter, receiving Rafael Navarro’s cross-field pass and this time finishing with more power past St. Clair from the right side of the box.

Oluwaseyi pulled Minnesota’s goal back in the 73rd minute after the Loons attacked down the left, finishing off Joseph Rosales’ cross from near the penalty spot.

Minnesota continued to apply pressure from there but lacked composure.

Oluwaseyi wasted another effort after getting behind Colorado’s back line, failing to hit the target. On another promising foray down the right, Rosales tried to cut the ball onto his stronger left foot, which allowed his shot attempt to be blocked.
