TFC, SKC take lessons from draw
The Sounders welcomed MLS’ newest franchise to Seattle having scored six goals and conceded five in their opening three matches.
Atlanta - led by former Barcelona and Argentina boss Gerardo Martino - arrived with 11 goals to its name to top the Eastern Conference.
However, Seattle and Atlanta both fired blanks for the first time this season.
It was the same result at BMO Field as host Toronto and Sporting KC failed to score.
The stalemate ensured Toronto and Sporting remain unbeaten through four games.
