Game Thread: Seattle Sounders vs Chivas

[Logicallylethal]

Clint Dempsey...the man on fire with 5 goals in his past 2 games and 6 goals and an assist in 3 starts. Sounders could tie Dallas for 1st overall in the MLS if they can come away with a W here.

Very winnable game against a lower tier team in the West.

Would also be nice to see Obafemi Martins get it going tonight as well and do a few back flips

Back flips or not, Oba has been key in orchestrating a number of goals this year. What a difference it makes pairing him up top with someone who can make the right runs!

Also, Brad Evans kind of cracks me up in your gif. "High five?...oh, you're busy, I see...well, ok then."

Wow bs penalty call

Dempsey to Neagle!!!!

1-1

Red! I didn't like the pk but I really like that we've seen much tighter reffing the past few games.

Some pushy bastards out there for Chivas.

I was only half watching the first half as I was out having a nice dinner at a little Italian place in Sumner. Got home just before half time. I did watch the Sounders goal from Neagle.

 

[WizardHawk]

Holy crap. Easy to see why this is the most penalized team in the league.

OBAFEMI MARTINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Varnigus]

Backflips!

 

[WizardHawk]

Still had some lapses on defense, but they beat a team they should have on the road. Take the 3 points and keep working on that back side before next match.

10 points in 4 road matches is pretty impressive. Nice win to brighten up my night after that stupid baseball game I watched earlier.

 

[Logicallylethal]

7 pts from a 3 game road trip including a win against the best team in MLS. Time to go home for 3 games at the Clink. Sounders look like they got their swagger back.

Still need to patch up the defense lapses and the nonchalant passes (especially from Pineda)

Hopefully the mojo from the road trip will follow them home. The Sounders have been uncharacteristically unimpressive at home so far this year. They've gotta fix that.
