Trendline for Match at Red Bull - First Half

How do you feel the team did in the first half? If they played the whole match at that level would they have "deserved" a win? or a draw?

Draw

Controlled play some of the time, but also gave up some scary chances that NYRB should have easily converted later on.

I give 0 points based on what i saw of the first half Seattle just couldn’t keep the ball enough to make any attacking threats.

2nd half definitely 3 points.

Actually that's a good point

I looked at it like it balanced out. Sounders controlled the first part of the half, NYRB controlled the second part of the half. What NY did with the action when they controlled it, however, was much more dangerous than Seattle it seemed.

NY had more of attacking pressure on Seattle in the first half. Seattle was very fortunate to not concede a goal in the first half.
