Gamethread for Leg 2 - Sounders @ Dynamo

Win or Go Home
The deciding game of a two leg aggregate when the first leg ended in a tie of nil-nil. An important reminder. There is no away goal rule, so if the 90 ends in a tie we go to extra time of two 15 minute halves. From there it goes to PKs in the 5 and 5 format to start. If still tied another round of PKs is added until a team wins.
Time: Noon (pregame at 11:30)
TV: KING5 in Seattle, FSN in the Pacific NorthWest, Telefutura for Spanish/Nationwide
Radio: 770 KTTH AM Seattle
Viewing parties: ECS, Gorilla FC & Prost Amerika
Dave is at the home of a member of the 214. Today I will be enjoying a fine Full Sail Grandsun of Spot IPA

My Keys to the Game
Glenn Davis' key matchups
I will adjust the lineups if they change. This will be my first attempt at a live blog. Match analysis will be in the comments. I hope my DVR works.
First Half Thoughts
Freddyain issues again. I thought we were past this. They must get on the same page.
Sounders are threatening infrequently, when they do they've been potent, but without the finish.
Referee is calling a fair match. Sure he's missed some calls, but I'd love for each referee in this league to call this style of game.
Sounders MUST get the ball and the pitch and use their speed and passing ability to beat down the slower Houston defense. Sadly, I said this in the preview as well.
Set-plays continue to be better for Seattle than the opposition.
Lastly, I think I sub in Ianni for Marshall. Sounders can't afford to be a man down, and Patrick adds solid defense.
Heading into Extra Time
With both Cameron and Chabala carrying cards I want to attack those guys with every opportunity. Marshall likely needs to be replaced, STILL, as he carries the yellow and an injury on both legs. Ianni is actually a better shooter, if it goes to extra time.
Roger has missed opportunities hanging on his belt. I'd rather he take those off and use them.
Half Time in Extra Time
Sounders in a 3-5-2 with Nyassi, Levesque and Le Toux on the pitch as subs.
Finishing again is a huge issue for Seattle

I’m expecting a PHYSICAL match in close quarters today. Hopefully our guys can keep their cool.

True. It could be worse.
But come on, it’s the playoffs of a reasonably popular American sports league! Fox Sports is showing women’s college soccer where I live, and ESPN2 is broadcasting a dog show from Oklahoma City.

Even if you are not an American Football fan, you can recognize that scores likes 48-7, 40-14, 53-7, 49-17, 39-13, 27-6, and so on are bad.
The worst part is that those are IMPROVEMENTS over last year’s totals.

I'm thinking maybe SSFC should substitute to put more defense
on the field and hunker down and play like CUSA. The way that Houston is playing, it just seems a matter of time before they get a result. I almost say shut the game down and try to win in penalty kicks.
The problem with that is that subbed players can't take penalties.

When you shoot against Keller

The Sounders played awful the first half
They played a little better the second half
Hopefully, the will play better in the first OT
And even better the second OT
And come out with a wn
I feel less self-conscious now.

Yeah
The thing about playoffs, I don’t know if I could take it if there was a loss like this with the Mariners. It would really suck….
"Let this big fucker come in and walk the world here." - Dave Niehaus on JJ Putz
I can't even afford to travel as much as some of those folks do, I can't imagine...
But cool that we made it to the playoffs, at least. Next year, man, next year….

Well Sounders, this season was a blast.
I have a new team and sport to follow now.
Great season overall
here’s to an even better ’10
What a terrible way to end the game, the ref can go F off.
All that aside, heck of a season for the Sounders. They are our best hope for successful sports in Seattle. See ya next season!
Final Whistle
Ljungberg gets carded for Dissent
I guess Seattle can’t beat the same team 3 times in one year. Even wtih five opportunities.

What the heck is the point of having a lot of money
You can’t spend it on players so you might as well go and get fined for telling your players to break the opposition’s legs/punch them in the face
