Facing two months absence

Ferreira is expected to miss eight to 10 weeks after further evaluation revealed tendon damage in addition to the hamstring strain suffered in his recent injury, according to coach Brian Schmetzer, per Jackson Felts.

Analysis: Ferreira was forced off in the 35th minute of the match in which he was hurt, initially grabbing the back of his right thigh before being replaced by Sebastian Gomez, who is expected to step into the starting role for the extended period Ferreira is now expected to miss. The additional tendon damage found alongside the hamstring strain adds to an already lengthy list of injuries Seattle have had to manage this season. Ferreira is expected to begin a structured recovery process with his return targeted for later in the campaign. His extended absence represents a significant blow to Seattle's attack just as the club continues navigating a difficult stretch with injuries.

Scores brilliant solo goal

Ferreira scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 3-2 win against San Jose Earthquakes.

Analysis: Ferreira delivered the goal of the match in Wednesday's 3-2 win over San Jose, intercepting Reid Roberts' pass roughly 30 yards from his own goal before carrying the ball 75 yards through the middle of the field and weaving past two defenders inside the box to finish calmly inside the right post and restore his side's lead in the second half, while adding a season-high seven key passes. The American forward operates on the right wing in Seattle's setup, combining intelligent movement off the ball with the technical quality and pressing intensity to create dangerous moments even without service. Ferreira has scored two goals and added three assists across 11 MLS appearances this season, with his strike against San Jose representing his most complete individual performance in a Sounders shirt.
