Apr 23, 2010 - 2:30 AM FRISCO, Texas(AP) -- Jeff Cunningham scored his second penalty kick goal of the game just before the final whistle to give FC Dallas a 2-2 tie with the Seattle Sounders FC on Thursday night in Major League Soccer.With the draw, Seattle (2-1-2) and moved into sole possession of second place in the Western Conference. Dallas is 0-1-3.

Cunningham, who led the MLS with 17 goals last year, then lined up at the dot and slotted a low shot just inside the left goal post for his third goal of the season.
Fredy Montero put the Sounders ahead 2-1 in the 55th minute when he boomed a perfectly executed free kick from 40 yards that sailed over the wall of Dallas defenders and curled just inside the upper left corner of the net, past goalkeeper Dario Sala.
