Bheem Goyal is fighting leukaemia and was 'signed' to a contract with the Sounders in partnership with the Make-A-Wish foundation.

Goyal showed no sign of nerves as he received the ball shortly after kick-off, before expertly passing it to one of his teammates. He was substituted with about 20 seconds played in the first half and received a standing ovation from spectators inside CenturyLink Field.

"It was great to have him out and training with us to see what we're doing, get his mind off things," Frei, who is Goyal's favorite player, was quoted as saying by the Sounders' official website."Sports always give you an outlet. They allow you to disappear in your own world and forget about your worries.

Joevin Jones #33 of Seattle Sounders dribbles with the ball against Marius Wolf #27 of Borussia Dortmund in the second half during the pre-season friendly match between Borussia Dortmund and Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field on July 17 in Seattle, Washington.Unfortunately for Goyal, he didn't get to see his team win as the Sounders lost 3-1 on Wednesday night against last season's runners-up in the Bundesliga.
