Seattle Sounders At FC Dallas - Gamethread

in Sounders: MLS Regular Season
Email
Print
Sigi Schmid and his Seattle Sounders have not won in Texas yet. Not against the Houston Dynamo, nor against Saturday night's opponent FC Dallas. It isn't that the sample size is huge, but as the season progresses it becomes more clear that the Toros and Sounders are likely to face off in the MLS Cup Playoffs, and if confidence matters getting a win during the regular season will help towards that. Dallas will have a weakened defense as George John is sitting out due to an Ejection in his last MLS match.
Facing the make-shift backline is the likely continuation of the Mike Fucito & Fredy Montero pairing up top. While that pairing didn't score when these two sides last faced off, it did create chances against the full strength defense. The Sounders created more chances (12 to 6 by PowerStats101) and more opportunities (43 to 15). The small-small worked, in everything but the scoreline. The key will be conversion. Last time conversion was limited not just by Kevin Hartman's 4 saves, but also by the 6 blocks from his outfield players. But all signs in that last match were that if Seattle played every game like that they would win a lot more than they lose. Tonight should follow that rule, and not be another exception of playing well but losing.
The game is on KONG at 6PM, but with NO RADIO due to the Seahawks pre-season game. Arlo White has the call.

Fernandez makes a ton of sense
Seattle has 3 starting quality wide mids right now. Neagle can’t play at Monterrey. Rosales didn’t start against Comunicaciones. So why play Alvaro 3 straight?

Ok, not really a stunner
This would be a tactical switch to put a more physical man against Shea. Also Scott is less likely to get forward.

Pretty good so far.
They aren’t shutting down our midfield and that’s letting us do what we want when we build.
We're winning
so …. good?
I feel like its been pretty even. We’ve been doing a bit more countering than i’m used to seeing us. They’ve already used a sub, and they are flopping a bit, but yeah, otherwise pretty good.

Pretty good
Offense looks good. Dallas back line is shaky without John and Lloyd. Scott is going to get burned by Shea a few more times before this half is over though

He needs to protect the ball more. Remember that goal Fernandez scored where he just shrugged off the challenger? I really want to see Neagle develop that physical prowess.

Watching a stream with FCD commentary
and I must admit they don’t seem like total homers, have been pretty fair especially to not excuse FCD fouls.
Agreed. They seem interested in telling the truth.
The Hernandez foul on Mauro was funny. On the replay: “And that, is definitely a foul.”
I was about to post the same thing
They don’t have the “flair” of Arlo, but they share his honesty and manage to avoid stupid sports cliches or low-brow attempts to stereotype players they don’t know (i.e. “Montero is lazy” type stuff).
I really don’t mind listening to them.
I never thought of FCD as being a dirty team.
But man, they sure are looking like one.
They aren't that bad.
They dive more than they foul.
Yeah, I don't think of them as dirty either.
But they seem determined to make the fouls they commit count.

To foul the hell out the Sounders to knock us for our game. Same strategy every team used on us last season
I don't know if they're dirty.
Definitely physical, but aside from the nasty scissor on Montero they haven’t gone too far over the line.

Can you believe that we apparently committed more fouls that half than we sufferred?

FCD is outshooting us
But their shots, intuitively, seem “low percentage” in nature (i.e. power shots from far away).
I know, earlier in the season, there was that discussion of how shots vs. shots-on-goal work at correlating to goals (with sog seemingly less useful as a predictor).
I wonder if, like was done a few weeks ago for passing accuracy in the final third, shots could be labeled by the zone they are taken in and if teams who have more shots in a given zone (intuitively, shots taken closer to the goal itself) have a tendency to score more goals-per-shots.

2nd yellow for diving?
I was just about to write how flopping is usually rewarded.
by python6114 on Aug 20, 2011 7:23 PM PDT via mobile reply actions
I'm guessing
He gave the yellow for the perceived dive before realising it was someone he’d already booked.
Wow not sure I like that
I’d rather the ref didn’t decide the game. I’m not sure it was a clear dive. Anyone get a better look?
not a classic swan dive
but really no contact at all…..basically what this ref has been calling a ‘foul’ so far.
Sure didn't look like much.
Wasn’t more contact than the card last year when they ran through two of our players in the box.

We are so far back right now
There’s no way we can defend for half an hour
Look at all the Seattle supporters
Awesome number of Seattle fans behind Fucito as he took the corner.
maybe the ref just hates colombians
two to daniel cruz, one to montero, one to hurtado…
I've seen worse
At least he touched it a little bit.
Looked ticky tacky but it might have been a bad dive.
Hard to tell how much contact there was.
Now with more lemon bars!
Not terribly bad.
Cruz had steam going forward, a guy on each shoulder, looked like he was waiting for any sort of contact and when he got it, went down. As someone said earlier, ref gave a yellow maybe not realizing the guy was already on one.
I think you mean every two minutes
Unofficial Sounder Fan Club President - New Mexico Division
I'm going to guess 1 minute
It seems the more calls the ref makes, the less time that gets added on.

I wish MLS rules didn't apply to our team too.

whew.....my heart can't take much of that!!!
Life's what happens while you're making other plans
save of the week
Glad we held on, not allowing dallas to score at home should help boost the defenses confidence.

I say we talk to the Puma's keeper.
At least until we secure something better.

Dear god that was intense.
"The fans are excited. And the stadium, well, it ignites with explosion."
Is now the time to point out
That had we won our season opener we’d be leading in the race for the SS?

Well, that was an intense game.
I hope both teams are blushing, since they were whistled at more often than a coed at a construction site. But we got the result we wanted, so GO EARTHQUAKES!
Thoughts on that San Jose red card?
I think Donovan should be suspended a game for embellishment.

can any other team
Claim to be undefeated on the road vs. The western conference? I know we still have vancover and chivas left, but that’s pretty impressive.
