Hola Feliz

It's using gusta in singular because "la sopa" is singular, "de verduras" is simply extra descriptive information about that noun "sopa", as if it was an adjective. So:

Me gustan las verduras.

I like vegetables.

Me gusta la sopa de verduras.

I like vegetable soup.

I hope it clarified it.

Saludos
