AUSTIN, Texas — Jordan Morris scored a goal and Stefan Frei had four saves to help the Seattle Sounders beat Austin FC 1-0 Saturday night for its fourth win in a row.

Seattle (9-7-7) has five wins in its six-game unbeaten streak.

Obed Vargas evaded multiple defenders as he raced down the right side, then tapped a pass to Paul Rothrock, who rolled a sliding pass to Morris for the finish from the center of the area to give the sounders a 1-0 lead in the 63rd minute.

Frei has posted back-to-back shutouts for the Sounders.

Austin beat New York City FC 3-2 last week, the club's first multi-goal game since a 3-2 win over Sporting Kansas City on May 18. Austin's 25 goals this season are the fewest in the Western Conference and second-fewest in all MLS (New England, 21).

Brad Stuver finished with four saves for Austin (8-9-6).

The teams played to a 0-0 tie in their only other matchup this season on March 2.
