Seattle Sounders At CS Herediano - Gamethread

in Sounders: CONCACAF Champions League
Email
PrintThe CONCACAF Champions League does not have the fame of its European counter-part. Part of that is because at this time the CCL has a single significant league. The Seattle Sounders could help rewrite that second sentence with a win in Wednesday night's match in Costa Rica against CS Herediano. Nine points in just three matches with two of the remaining at home changes the way Sigi Schmid can manage his roster for the rest of Group D and MLS Regular Season play.
A few weeks ago this seemed like a match where that would be assured. A change of coaches has led to improved form for the 2nd ranked team in Costa Rica, and yesterday we got a reminder of what it is like playing on the road in CONCACAF. For all the complaints about USSF referees they are at worst the equal of their compatriots to the South. The Sounders have to take care though. Referees define the game when you let them. The LA Galaxy were out-played and "deserved" to lose, but not in that manner.
Players like Alvaro Fernandez (prone to pleading) and Mike Fucito (prone to screaming) cannot let the referee define the match (those two merely exmples). The lack of sufficient scouting means that Sigi will have to have the team define itself. They must play as drawn up on the chalkboards and in the film sessions. Be exactly what you are. The surprises that Herediano will throw out there are meaningless, because Seattle is the better team. When they play like that they will win.
The game is on Fox Soccer (National Play-By-Play), CONCACAF.com (British PbP) and 97.3FM with Arlo White on the call at 7PM

After seeing LA and Dallas goals called offsides very incorrectly.
I wonder which Sounders player is going to get robbed… Hopefully it just won’t matter.

I can’t think of the last time I heard anyone say that (besides here, of course).
The announcer on FSC just talked about how interested Fredy was tonight.
Different word, same idea.
At the game on Saturday, numerous people were calling him lazy.
At a certain point, people make up their mind about something and won’t listen to reason.

3rd minute
On a nice feed at the top of the box from Jaqua. A few close misses from the Sounders. Decent build up but having trouble getting shots in the final third. A few nervous moments on defense, but Keller hasn’t had to do much.

for being behind they sure seem to flop around alot.

We could buy CONCACAF. And why would CONCACAF prefer CAmerica over the US?
Not up for sale
Just going by what some LA fans have been saying, more of an ingrained bias. I don’t buy into it, but in the heat of the match there are moments of weakness.

the refs would actually start doing a MUCH better job at calling players for diving the flopping would stop. Until they do that we will continue to see this going on.

is that it really messed with his head and all he wants to do is surf and that soccer isn’t that important to him.

the stupid thing
is that he is perfect in yallop’s 4-4-2 longball system but he really doesn’t make that much sense in Chivas’ system. and he would struggle for minutes at Galaxy while he would be a guaranteed starter in SJ.

On McMennamins
You can spend a lot of time at the Edgefield. It has bars, restaurants, beautiful grounds, and even a par3 golf pitch and putt.
The other I’d try is the Bagdad. Cheap movies, great food, awesome beer. Great way to end (or start) a night.

And a distillery at Edgefield
One of the two places you can buy their delicious Hogshead whiskey. Although it’s technically in Troutdale.

There's an awesome video travelogue called "Portlandia"

Grilled meat.
with a side of grilled meat. Vegetables ground into flavorful pastes to go with your meat. And flat breads to keep it off your hands.

Was going to respond above with the same comment.
Other than grilled meat, you get various colored “pastes” that you use that really flat bread to scoop up with your hands. My vegeterian girlfriend loves it. If I get the grilled meat, I’m down, mainly because I can tell what the hell it is.

Honest answer
Powell’s
The Grotto
Mt Tabor
The Japanese garden area (Washington Park I think?)
Then drink silly at the brewpubs (Hair of the Dog, Hopworks, Cascade, etc) and then go to brunch

McMennimans... They have a place called The White Eagle
It’s a 2 minute walk to Widmer (meh) which has a fun tour (free beer and stuff). It’s cheap to stay there about $60/night (shared bathrooms, but REALLY CLEAN… it is the ONLY place I stay in Portland). It has beer and food. It’s clean. There is usually live music… and 5 minute walk to the light rail in a cute neighborhood.
Really… Check it out. The White Eagle… http://www.mcmenamins.com/469-white-eagle-saloon-home

I'm starting to get the Noonan strategy
It’s clearly meant to stun the other team for 10 minutes as they ponder “why the hell did they just put Pat Noonan in?”
by Brougham Hooligan on Sep 14, 2011 8:43 PM PDT reply actions
Why
Are we dicking around just in front of our area? There were at least 3 or 4 opportunities to clear that.
Not yet, did you see the link earlier this week?
When they decides to lay the beat down, everyone will know.

I'm hoping for a late monterey goal...
cause if we win then it will be 9 points for us and 4 for each of them
depends if monterrey has more upside this year
in which case if they stagger through they could be dangerous

They are in 3rd place in group
May need to fire all their bullets when they come to Seattle, which would make for an entertaining match.

on Twitter: Seattle the class of MLS so far in #CCL group stage. If they keep it going, no reason Sounders couldn’t follow Salt Lake’s path to final.

I think you get the second leg of quarters at home

Group winners seeded against group runners up.
As noted before, group winners are assured of playing the second leg at home. Clubs are guaranteed not to be seeded against a club from their own group in the first round.

In case anyone didn't notice...
Dallas tied 1-1 and Toronto got blown up 0-4.
So, I am rooting for the MLS in general to do well. So the MLS went 1-0-4 the last two days after going I believe 8-1-1 up till then.
by SoundersForever on Sep 14, 2011 9:16 PM PDT reply actions
Shouldn't
it be 1-1-3?
Seattle won, Dallas drew, LA lost and rapids and TFC got spanked.
You sir, are correct.
So MLS is 9-2-4 if my math is correct.
by SoundersForever on Sep 14, 2011 9:25 PM PDT up reply actions
No reason to think
that the Sounders couldn’t sell 60k+ tickets to the second leg of a knockout stage with an entire offseason’s time to sell tickets. They could set a record for a competitive match.
Oh, dreams of a full Qwest Field where everyone's there purely for the Sounders...
I think it’s definitely a possibility, maybe even a plausibility, down the road, but not next season. Not unless they do indeed get to the finals and host the second leg of them (maybe the first, even).
