35
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 3: on right now.

36
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 2: They just keep winning games, and they're winning a variety

37
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: of ways.

38
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 3: Let's go back, as we always do to start these

39
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:14,079
Speaker 3: shows and reflect on the most recent game, A two

40
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 3: to one win against Vancouver in Spokane puts.

41
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: Them through to the next round.

42
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,800
Speaker 3: Of Conkercaff Champions Cup and a game where the Sounders,

43
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,960
Speaker 3: you know, on Aggregate it was three to one. It

44
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 3: never got closer than that. They got two second half goals.

45
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 3: They ended up winning the series five to one, but

46
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 3: a series that very much they dominated the defending West champs.

47
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that that game.

48
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 6: It was fantastic in some respects in other respects beating

49
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,679
Speaker 6: a team like that. You don't want to get over

50
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 6: confident going into this Minnesota game. Okay, as we say,

51
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 6: you know, we might be looked better on paper or

52
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 6: our records, but paper doesn't play, and so they need

53
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 6: to be really focused today because if they would slip

54
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 6: up today, we'd be very, very disappointed.

55
00:02:58,919 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: It's interesting you mentioned that.

56
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 3: So yesterday out at training, I'm sure I can share this.

57
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 3: I'm walking off the field with the with p Fewing.

58
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 3: He was calling the game with Danny Jackson coming up

59
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 3: in a half hour, and Rothrock is walking into the

60
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 3: locker room and he's walking alongside of us, and I said, Paul,

61
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,800
Speaker 3: I'm going to continue the bit because the bit for

62
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 3: pregame shows so far this year has been Rothrock is

63
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,080
Speaker 3: on pace for X and right now he has five

64
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:28,359
Speaker 3: goal contributions in five games played. So he is averaging

65
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,000
Speaker 3: one per game goal contribution from a guy who came

66
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 3: into the year. Yes, he was resigned to a big contract,

67
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 3: but he came into the year as the first guy

68
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 3: off the bench. Well, Jordan Morris gets hurt. We're going

69
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 3: to talk about Jordan in a minute. By the way,

70
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 3: Jordan Morris gets hurt. Rothrock comes in in that first

71
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 3: game in the seventh minute, and since doing that, he

72
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 3: is a starter and he's averaging one a game. So, Paul,

73
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 3: the bit continues. You're on pace for MLS play thirty

74
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 3: four goals or thirty four you know, thirty.

75
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: Four goals plus assists. Not bad for Paul Rothrock.

76
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,680
Speaker 3: But I bring up this thing is so we're walking

77
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 3: off the field with Paul and I said, the bit's

78
00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 3: going to continue, and he says, okay, doesn't matter.

79
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: Last game doesn't mean bleep.

80
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 3: And I love that mentality because it's sort of exactly

81
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:12,480
Speaker 3: what you're saying.

82
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:12,840
Speaker 5: Chance.

83
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,359
Speaker 3: It's, hey, we had a great game against Vancouver, we

84
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 3: had a great series. We've had a couple really gutsy

85
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 3: one nothing wins, None of that matters. All that matters

86
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 3: is Minnesota.

87
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 6: I think Paul's mentality is what's going to keep him

88
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 6: playing and keep him having a long career. That's a

89
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,559
Speaker 6: perfect thing to say. It's the perfect way to view things.

90
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 6: And what he needs to do is keep doing all

91
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 6: the right things, and the byproduct of doing the right

92
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 6: things is going to be he's going to get points

93
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 6: because he's up there, he's attacking, he's working hard, and

94
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 6: you know, he just needs to keep doing that. If

95
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 6: you start thinking about all the points that you get,

96
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 6: you're getting it's going to stop. I had one year

97
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,239
Speaker 6: when I led the league in scoring and I didn't

98
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 6: know how many goals I had until the end when

99
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 6: somebody told me, you just play and let it happen.

100
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 2: Well, you know who leads the league scoring chain legends.

101
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 3: That was right when I mentioned that we're counting you

102
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 3: down to kickoff here for the next about thirty minutes,

103
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 3: and then Danny Jackson, Pete Fewing, as I mentioned, will have

104
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 3: the call. All EON's field a little bit warmer than

105
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 3: it was in the playoffs late last last I guess

106
00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 3: late fall, early winter when it was about it was

107
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:20,960
Speaker 3: in the teams and.

108
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 2: It was a frigid, frigid stadium.

109
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 3: There at allons Field for the playoff loss there in

110
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 3: game three of the first round.

111
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:28,239
Speaker 2: A little bit warmer today.

112
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 3: I think it's thirty eight degrees at kickoff there in Minnesota,

113
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 3: So we actually are looking at our monitor right now

114
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,360
Speaker 3: and people are not wearing those giant overcoats that they

115
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 3: were wearing last November. You know, mentioned chance that not

116
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 3: only was the Vancouver series dominating those West champs, but

117
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 3: in MLS play chance the last two games Saint Louis

118
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 3: San Jose last weekend both won to nothing wins and

119
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,239
Speaker 3: wins where you really had to smash, grab, gutsy, defend, defend, defend,

120
00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 3: And it is kind of highlighting that the Sounders can

121
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 3: win those variety of ways and win a game that

122
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 3: is very defensive.

123
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:08,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, it proves that Brian, the way he coaches, he

124
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 6: can put together competitive teams with whoever he's got available.

125
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 6: And you know what, and the other thing is is

126
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 6: that that all that mentality, the Sounders mentality. We've talked

127
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,320
Speaker 6: about it many many times. It is trickled down to

128
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 6: the young players. They get it so whenever next man

129
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 6: up they come in and they do the same job

130
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 6: that everybody else has been doing.

131
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 5: And at a minimum.

132
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 6: You have to go in and you have to have

133
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,279
Speaker 6: work rate, and once you do that, you've got a

134
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 6: foundation that you can build on for the game. If

135
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 6: you don't have that, you're done.

136
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:36,160
Speaker 7: I mean.

137
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 3: And that's a credit really honestly to the entire culture

138
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 3: in the system, because you look at a guy like

139
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 3: Peter Kingston who comes up through the system and you know,

140
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,599
Speaker 3: he's a guy that was with Pete Feuing at Seattle University.

141
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 3: He goes over to Jamie Clark with the University of Washington.

142
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 3: He plays a couple of years.

143
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 2: For Ballard f C.

144
00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 3: He wins a national championship at the USL two level

145
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 3: for Ballard FC on a game winning goal in the

146
00:06:57,320 --> 00:07:01,360
Speaker 3: ninety somethingter minute. You know, Peter Kingston, No, I mean,

147
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 3: he's also he's a young kid, but he has two

148
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 3: kids of his own, He has a family. This is

149
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,359
Speaker 3: a guy well beyond his years who's been in big

150
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 3: soccer moments in his career and he's come up through

151
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 3: the system with defiance and now here he is coming

152
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 3: out of the field on Wednesday, off the bench and.

153
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 2: The moment's not too big for him. What does he do?

154
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:22,840
Speaker 3: He goes out and he has two assists that give

155
00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 3: the Sounders a five to one on aggregate win. It's

156
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 3: those types of stories, Snyder Burnell's it's Georgia Manoto, Goose

157
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 3: knew who now who you know, we've seen him, were

158
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 3: the captain's armband. It's it's all these things where you

159
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 3: go through the system, you are embedded in that culture

160
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 3: and you're just ready to go when your numbers called.

161
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, and the word for me is consistency.

162
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 7: Yeah.

163
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,760
Speaker 6: It's there day in and day out, year in and

164
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 6: year out, and it doesn't change. And whenever you do that,

165
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 6: it's it's easy for players to either jump on board

166
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 6: or you're gone. And you know what, we don't just

167
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 6: pick you know, as I said before, the thought process

168
00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 6: trickle down through the team.

169
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 5: But they also look for.

170
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 6: Players who have that mentality that they're going to bring in.

171
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 6: That's it's not an accident. You're always looking for that

172
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 6: certain mentality. If you don't have it and you're going

173
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 6: to be, you know, something different from the team, I

174
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 6: don't think they would go for that player.

175
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: And it's interesting because you have that mix of guys

176
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 3: who come up through the system, You have that mix

177
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 3: of guys who do that and then you sign them

178
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 3: from outside, and then you also have guys who you

179
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 3: just instantly trade for on a moment. Nikolpetkovich who starts

180
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 3: today and he's been a bright spot. We'll get into

181
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 3: him well. I mentioned he's starting. We're going to tell

182
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 3: you the whole starting line up here in a few minutes,

183
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,439
Speaker 3: because it is obviously a bit rotated from Wednesday's victory

184
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:43,840
Speaker 3: over Vancouver at Spokane. I will quickly tell you and

185
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 3: get into the Providence Swedish team health report.

186
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 2: Pedro dal la Vega.

187
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,960
Speaker 3: He has the knee injury. He had that broken kneecap

188
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 3: on decision day last year. He's going to be out

189
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 3: until right around the World Cup. Jamargomes Andrade we now

190
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 3: have a timeline. We know he has a hamstring strain,

191
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 3: but Brian Schenzer set out training yesterday that that was

192
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,360
Speaker 3: an eight week injury from the injury date, which that

193
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 3: was two weeks ago. So you're looking at six more

194
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 3: weeks for Yamar Gomez Andrade now. But the good news

195
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 3: is we've had Tino Lopez, another guy step up really

196
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:17,480
Speaker 3: really big. Staying with the center back injuries, Stuart Hawkins

197
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,319
Speaker 3: out with the quad, Kim Key he out with the calf,

198
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: Ryan Sailor out with the knee, a lot of center

199
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 3: back injuries there, Hassani Dotson still out with that head injury,

200
00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 3: and then the injury report ends and there's no more names,

201
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 3: and that means Jordan Morris is off the injury report.

202
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:36,000
Speaker 5: Chance.

203
00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 3: Jordan Morris is on the bench for the Seattle Sounders.

204
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 3: He is on a minute's limit according to Brian Spencer.

205
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,640
Speaker 3: But Jordan Morris, a guy who has obviously been you know,

206
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 3: leading a goalscorer in club history, crucial to this team's

207
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 3: success over the last you know, decade plus getting him

208
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 3: back and getting him available off the bench, that's huge

209
00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 3: for this team.

210
00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 6: It's huge not only for the team, but it's huge

211
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,679
Speaker 6: for Jordan. And I can't even imagine what that kid is.

212
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 6: I call I'm a kid because I've known him since

213
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 6: he was eight. But the mentality, the strength of his

214
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 6: mentality to go through all the injuries that he's gone

215
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 6: through and he's still coming back.

216
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 5: I'm very impressed by that.

217
00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 6: So I think he's going to be super excited to

218
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 6: get on the field. I know he's unlimited time, maybe

219
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 6: like twenty five thirty minutes or something, and I hope

220
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:19,680
Speaker 6: he can.

221
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 5: You know, it'd be great for him.

222
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 6: To come out of their unscathed and to get some

223
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 6: you know, if he could get a goal or assist

224
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 6: or something that would be awesome.

225
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,120
Speaker 2: That would be a dream scenario. Well, who is starting

226
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 2: for the Seattle Sounders.

227

Speaker 3: We'll talk about Minnesota United here coming up in a

294
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 3: little bit, but it's time to break down what the

295
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 3: Sounders are putting out today and get to the Delta.

296
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 3: Starting eleven four Seattle of our head coach Brian Schenzer.

297
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,400
Speaker 3: He is making some changes from Wednesday's match there in

298
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:28,640
Speaker 3: Spokane against Vancouver. We have Osase de Rosario starting forward.

299
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 3: Your band of three attacking midfielders are Georgia Manunu on

300
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,400
Speaker 3: the left, Albert Rusnak in the middle, and Paul Rothrock.

301
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 3: We talked about him last segment. He's averaging a one

302
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 3: goal contribution per game. He plays four goals and assists

303
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 3: in five games so far.

304
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:44,680
Speaker 2: He's on the right wing.

305
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 3: Christian Rodon is your captain in the holding midfield next

306
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 3: to Nikola Petkovich, left back knew Who, right back Kalani

307
00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 3: Cosa Rienzi, and then you have your center back tandem

308
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 3: of Alex rolled On. He's sliding in from his right

309
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,320
Speaker 3: back spot to be a saven back. Been very good

310
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 3: so far this year at that center back spot and

311
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 3: and Tino Lopez, your newest Seattle soundary. He was signed

312
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 3: to a first team contract. He has obviously performed great

313
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 3: since coming up from Tacoma Defiance. He earned that first

314
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,440
Speaker 3: team contract and he is starting there at the left

315
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 3: center back spot with Andrew Thomas in goal.

316
00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:22,560
Speaker 2: So that is your Delta starting eleven. But Chance, let's.

317
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,640
Speaker 3: Talk about this lineup, and let's start at the top

318
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 3: with Osase. Talking with Brian Spencer yesterday, Osase scored I

319
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 3: believe it was five.

320
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: Goals in three games in the preseason. He was on fire.

321
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 3: They gave him that starting nod, and he just hasn't

322
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 3: gotten off to that hot start that he had in

323
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 3: the preseason. Brian Schpenzer said, he's quote searching for a goal.

324
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 3: It's clear that Osase, in my words, now, he's clear

325
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 3: that Osase is kind of putting more pressure on himself

326
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 3: than he should, doing a little bit too much. And

327
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 3: I'm wondering Chance, as somebody who's scored on quite a

328
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 3: lot of goals in his life.

329
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 2: You know, how does Osase.

330
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:59,440
Speaker 3: Break the damn and get back to that preseason success.

331
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,960
Speaker 6: Whenever I was struggling, I would go back to the basics,

332
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 6: just simple things. Just get against a wall, side foot,

333
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 6: just getting strikes on the ball, getting yourself confident in

334
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 6: doing that thing. He's not here because he's never done

335
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 6: it before. Right, He's got the quality. He's been brought

336
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 6: up by his dad, who was a great goal scorer.

337
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 5: Dane was amazing.

338
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 6: And sometimes whenever you're not getting that goal that you need,

339
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 6: you start to push right, and you've seen it before

340
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 6: with other strikers, they'll be taking these crazy shots or

341
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 6: not taking their time. There was one I think it

342
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 6: was against Vancouver that I remember where he just reached

343
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 6: for it instead of just stepping up and maybe side

344
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 6: footing it into the corner or something. But he has quality.

345
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:45,040
Speaker 6: He just needs to go back to the basics. Get

346
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 6: that first one, and then strikers they just feed off

347
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 6: of that, that being confident in themselves. And once you're confident,

348
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 6: and I know Bert Schmeetz will put that and instill

349
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 6: it that into him, he'll be fine. Yeah, But it's

350
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 6: it's just getting a couple of goals and maybe today

351
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 6: is going to be that day.

352
00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 5: Hopefully, hopefully it is.

353
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:08,120
Speaker 3: In Minnesota. United is missing their leader, center back, Michael Boxall,

354
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 3: and it's a perfect opportunity for Osasey to step up

355
00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 3: and get that goal. Brian says he needs one and

356
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 3: it would be great for Sasey to get that goal

357
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 3: before Jordan Morris comes off the bench for him. Let's

358
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 3: slide a couple of lines back and go to Nikola Petkovich.

359
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 3: He's been a bit of a surprise and for Brian Schmitzer,

360
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 3: he said he's been really good and that kind of

361
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:29,640
Speaker 3: you know, when we asked him, he said, he said

362
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 3: he's been surprising and kind of lifted his eyebrows, like

363
00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 3: surprising in a very very good way.

364
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 2: And he has been a bright spot.

365
00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 3: And you know, it's one of those things chances where

366
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 3: Petkovich comes into this system we talked about in the

367
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 3: previous segments and it's sort of like, all right, you

368
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 3: better kind of step into the culture and be ready

369
00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 3: to go. And he kind of has done it on

370
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 3: all levels, offensively, defensively, and he's one of kind of

371
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 3: these these bright spots where with Obed Vargus's departure, you

372
00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 3: needed a guy like him to step up, and he

373
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 3: stepped up in a couple of ways, you know where

374
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 3: I don't think that everybody saw him coming in and

375
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 3: having this kind of impact. But Covich, you know, he

376
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,159
Speaker 3: was in Charlotte, he was this highly thought of you

377
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 3: twenty two player, and Dean Smith didn't like him their

378
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,200
Speaker 3: head coach. He didn't fit with what Dean Smith wanted

379
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,160
Speaker 3: to do in Charlotte. He was injured in opportune times,

380
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 3: and I don't know, maybe maybe a fresh start and

381
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 3: maybe just a new location was what the kid needed.

382
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 6: Yeah, a different change of scenery, a different voice, a

383
00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,640
Speaker 6: different way of being approached. You know, sometimes people think,

384
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 6: you know, professional soccer players can be just spoken to

385
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 6: any way that you know, coach wants to. But there's

386
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,959
Speaker 6: still people, there's still humans, and they react differently, and

387
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 6: so getting the right coach, the right mentality in himself,

388
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,360
Speaker 6: you know, and just changing the scenery. I can tell

389
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,120
Speaker 6: you there was one time I was in New York

390
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 6: and the coach they brought me there, and the coach

391
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 6: that brought me in got fired. New coach came in

392
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 6: didn't like me for whatever reason, and at one point

393
00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 6: I just went into the office and said, look, if

394
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,520
Speaker 6: you don't want me, just make me a free agent.

395
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 5: I'm gonna leave.

396
00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:04,520
Speaker 6: And so he goes, fine, we'll do that, and I

397
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 6: packed up my stuff and I drove home to Seattle,

398
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 6: signed with Tulsa again, and everything was great.

399
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 5: I just moved on.

400
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 6: Sometimes you just need that change, You need to just

401
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 6: cut your ties.

402
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,000
Speaker 3: So you leave the long drive from New York back

403
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 3: to Seattle, and then and then you have to go

404
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 3: drive back to Oklahoma.

405
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't remember if I drove, I flew.

406
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,480
Speaker 2: I was gonna say, because boy, it's a shame.

407
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 3: You couldn't have just left New York and gone to

408
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 3: Oklahoma and not have to cross country and then go back.

409
00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 5: I didn't have the deal yet.

410
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 6: No, my dad was a fireman here in Seattle, and

411
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,400
Speaker 6: he flew out there and we actually drove back winter time,

412
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 6: seventy two hours and.

413
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 5: It was brutal.

414
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:38,359
Speaker 6: But I'll tell you, and this is getting too deep,

415
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,439
Speaker 6: but you know what I was like, I had this

416
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 6: rash on my back. I was just so upset and everything,

417
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 6: and halfway across the country, I'm like, Dad checked this

418
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 6: out and showed him and it had gone away, and

419
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 6: the pressure was off me and I just started again.

420
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 5: Wow, how about that?

421
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 3: And for Nikola Petkovich, he started again and he's been

422
00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,880
Speaker 3: pretty good for the Seattle Sounders. Last player I want

423
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 3: to hit as we dropped back another line on this

424
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 3: lineup is New Who. And you know, long time listeners

425
00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 3: know that it's been a complicated relationship with my feelings

426
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 3: on New Who. He definitely evolved over the years. But

427
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 3: I think one of the things we're now seeing from

428
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 3: New Who is a very mature player. It's a guy

429
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 3: who has worn the captain's armband this year. It's a

430
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 3: guy who's now the captain of the Cameroon national team,

431
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,160
Speaker 3: and he has definitely taken another step. He's always been

432
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,199
Speaker 3: that great defender, but you know, now we're seeing a

433
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 3: very much kind of older and still very skillful, but

434
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 3: much more mature new And it's been awesome to see

435
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 3: this year. He's played every minute for the Sounders.

436
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 5: I think, yeah, I think that.

437
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 6: You know, I don't get to see New Who on

438
00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,680
Speaker 6: a day to day basis, day in and day out,

439
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,040
Speaker 6: but the things that I've seen, the waving of the

440
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,439
Speaker 6: arms and some of the things that just they just

441
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 6: didn't help him at all. They kind of hurt him

442
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,040
Speaker 6: in a way, and so to see him grow up

443
00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 6: a little bit, I guess, and to take the captain

444
00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 6: armband and you know, lead his team, I think it's

445
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:04,120
Speaker 6: been great. And as a defender, defending goes there isn't

446
00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 6: anybody that's in this league that can run by that kid,

447
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,880
Speaker 6: and he's you know, I'm really happy for him, and

448
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 6: he should be happy for himself too, because there was

449
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,720
Speaker 6: probably a few times over the years where a lot

450
00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 6: of coaches may have not liked that type of attitude

451
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 6: and may have gotten rid of him. But Brian's stuck

452
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,080
Speaker 6: with them and it's paying dividends.

453
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 2: It certainly is.

454
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 3: That's your Sounders lineup strong today for the Sounders in

455
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,920
Speaker 3: Minnesota to face the Loons. We'll take a break, we'll

456
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 3: come back and we'll talk about this Minnesota team. It

457
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 3: is quite different from the team that the Sounders lost

458
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,040
Speaker 3: to in the playoffs last year, not in terms of personnel,

459
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 3: but in terms of how they play and who leads them.

460
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 3: We'll tell you about Minnesota United next year on the

461
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,879
Speaker 3: pre match show about fifteen minutes away from kickoff on

462
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 3: Sports Radio nine to fifty KJRM.

463
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,280
Speaker 2: Hey, they're Sounders fans.

464
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,640
Speaker 17: All of us a Sound Transit love when you take

465
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 17: the train to the match, but we want to remind

466
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:58,440
Speaker 17: you to use crosswalks and obey traffic signals near tracks.

467
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,760
Speaker 17: Trains are quieter than you expect, travel in both directions,

Speaker 2: Don't want to even talk about that as a Spurs fan.

531

536
00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 3: let's talk about Minnesota. They are an interesting, interesting case

537
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 3: right now. They're not off to a good start here

538
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,959
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty six, just the entire calendar year. In

539
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 3: early January, they lost head coach Eric Ramsey, the man

540
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 3: who designed a system that got them a playoff series

541
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,840
Speaker 3: win over Seattle last year, the man who led them

542
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 3: to one of their best regular.

543
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:50,840
Speaker 2: Season finishes ever.

544
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 3: He leaves to go to West Brom in the EFL

545
00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:55,679
Speaker 3: Championship in England.

546
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 5: In January.

547
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 3: Eric Ramsey was in charge of West Brom for non matches,

548
00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 3: did not record a single win. He was fired on

549
00:26:04,680 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 3: February twenty fourth, while the team was one point above relegation.

550
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:08,640
Speaker 2: Line.

551
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 3: A month later, West brom Is still only two points

552
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 3: above relegation line, so not good for Eric Ramsey. He

553
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,040
Speaker 3: was fired. And this ultra defensive style of soccer where

554
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 3: they set so many people behind the ball and they

555
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,199
Speaker 3: basically say come at us, We're gonna get you on

556
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 3: set pieces encounters. It's terrible to watch, whether you're home

557
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 3: or road, and it didn't lead to wins. He gets fired. Meanwhile,

558
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 3: in Minnesota, since losing Eric, they go to Cameron Knowles,

559
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 3: a forty three year old former MS defender. He was

560
00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 3: an internal higher Knowles. He's been with the club since

561
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 3: twenty twenty one. He previously coached Minnesota United two, which

562
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 3: is their.

563
00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:47,680
Speaker 2: Tacoma defiance team.

564
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 3: The Loons have opened twenty twenty six with a one

565
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 3: two to one record. They had a two to two

566
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 3: draw against Austin. They had a one nothing win over

567
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 3: a very rotated Cincinnati team, then a three to one

568
00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,840
Speaker 3: loss in Nashville, and last weekend, bad, bad, bad, six

569
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 3: nothing loss to Vancouver, a Vancouver team that the Sounders

570
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 3: had just beaten. So chance it's a situation where Ramsey's out,

571
00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:16,199
Speaker 3: Noles is in the system changes the personnel for the

572
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 3: most part, stays the same, and it's not been a

573
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 3: good change for Minnesota.

574
00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, sometimes when you're changing systems or you're getting a

575
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 6: different voice or whatever, it may be different instructions, it

576
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 6: can be very difficult for teams. And you see it

577
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,360
Speaker 6: all over in every you know, league around the world.

578
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 6: You get a new coach in and all of a sudden,

579
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,159
Speaker 6: they're gonna put theirs, they're gonna put their stamp on it,

580
00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 6: and it doesn't really work. And so the thing is

581
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 6: is it's early on in the season. I mean, I

582
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,879
Speaker 6: wouldn't count Minnesota out of anything, you know, it's so early,

583
00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 6: but you start to put your own stamp on it,

584
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 6: and it's sometimes the players just don't lock into it. Yes,

585
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,880
Speaker 6: their system last year was boring, but it was effective,

586
00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,679
Speaker 6: and you know, changing it up isn't that easy. You

587
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:03,359
Speaker 6: can't just you know, bring in a new coach doesn't

588
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 6: just flip a switch. There has to be a lot

589
00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:08,360
Speaker 6: of work put around to playing a certain way.

590
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,919
Speaker 3: Well, you hope that Cameron Knowles and his team don't

591
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 3: figure it out today, and you hope that they continue

592
00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 3: to be in that early season process of trying to

593
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 3: find solutions, because so far through four games, there haven't

594
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 3: been those solutions. They still have Calvin Yeboa. He has

595
00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:23,760
Speaker 3: a couple of goals at the forward spot. They still

596
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 3: have Joaquin Pereira. He scored against the Sounders last year

597
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:29,919
Speaker 3: and he has an assist. Bogie long Wane is.

598
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:30,360
Speaker 2: A good goal.

599
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 3: They brought in an Argentine winger, kind of an MLS

600
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 3: young younger, but MLS journeyman who has four starts this season.

601
00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 3: But yeah, Dane Saint Clair gone to Miami, Robin Ludd

602
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 3: went to Chicago. Michael Boxall. He's injured with a lower

603
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 3: body injury. He's been out in the last two games

604
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 3: where they've given up nine goals in the last two games,

605
00:28:50,480 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 3: eleven goals conceded in four games this year. So for Minnesota,

606
00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 3: it's just lots of question marks and you hope they

607
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,080
Speaker 3: don't find the answers. We'll also mention really quickly, I

608
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 3: think Fits was a high priced Austrian addition for Minnesota.

609
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,760
Speaker 3: He has been out since they acquired him with an

610
00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 3: undisclosed medical condition they have from what we don't the

611
00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:13,960
Speaker 3: rest of the league don't know what's going on, But

612
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 3: they spend a lot of money for this Fits guy,

613
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:19,240
Speaker 3: and he's unavailable. So for Minnesota, it's a lot of

614
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 3: questions and you hope they don't find the answers. Let's

615
00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 3: transition back to Seattle very quickly. Chance thirty seconds your

616
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:25,600
Speaker 3: player to watch.

617
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 6: I'm going to watch as Asa de Rosario. I think

618
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 6: that he's going to get a couple of goals today

619
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 6: and get himself back on track.

620
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,960
Speaker 3: Is that an official prediction right there, because I know

621
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,320
Speaker 3: how it works with you in predictions.

622
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,320

00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 4: six outlook look started to appear much different, and after

780
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,359
Speaker 4: a six zero pounding about Vancouver last weekend, there it's

781
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:16,080
Speaker 4: much work to be done for new head coach Cameron Knowles.

782
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:20,360
Speaker 4: For your Sounders, they have stability and consistency in abundance

783
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 4: and their results over the past ten days or so

784
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,359
Speaker 4: have proved that four wins from four with three clean

785
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,960
Speaker 4: sheets have elevated the Sounders up the MLS standings and

786
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 4: into the quarterfinals of Conker CAFF Champions Cup. This will

787
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:34,960
Speaker 4: be their sixth straight game on the road and they

788
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:37,360
Speaker 4: are seeking another three points and a push up the

789
00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:42,520
Speaker 4: Western Conference standings before the upcoming international break. I'm Danny

790
00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:46,399
Speaker 4: Jackson alongside former Seattle University head coach Pete Fewing here

791
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 4: in the booth, and before we get to Pete for

792
00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,320
Speaker 4: his initial thoughts, let's get you the Delta starting eleven

793
00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 4: for your Sounders. A couple of tweeks for Brian Schmetzer

794
00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:57,320
Speaker 4: in the starting eleven Andrew Thomas backing goal after Stephan

795
00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:00,160
Speaker 4: Fry was between the sticks for the Vancouver gave in

796
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,840
Speaker 4: Conker Kef It's Kilaney on the right who scored that

797
00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,400
Speaker 4: winning goal, of course, just a couple of weeks ago.

798
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 4: Alex rolled on will slide in the middle alongside Tino

799
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,359
Speaker 4: Lopez who got his new contract this week, and then

800
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,640
Speaker 4: knew who on the left hand side Christian alongside Nicola

801
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,919
Speaker 4: Petkevich in the middle of the park, Paul rothrock goalscorer

802
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,680
Speaker 4: in the last three games, starts on that right, Ruznak

803
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 4: and the ten Georgie on the left, and then jzaz

804
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:28,040
Speaker 4: Derrazario goes up front fo Minnesota. Its Calendaring Goala back

805
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:32,440
Speaker 4: for of Diaz, Duggan, Romero, Markinich, is Triantis and Trap

806
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,640
Speaker 4: who anchored the middle of the park. It's Duncan, Perea

807
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 4: and Schunkily on the left hand side, and then your Boa.

808
00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,479
Speaker 4: The number nine is up front. So Pete ware ready

809
00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:47,239
Speaker 4: to go here Sounders in the evergreen kit of green shirts,

810
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,279
Speaker 4: blue shorts and socks, and then of course Minnesota and

811
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 4: they're all dark kit today as the home field. We

812
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:57,719
Speaker 4: were here just a few months ago. Of course, Sounders

813
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 4: disappointed themselves in some ways. Tuner up conceded three goals.

814
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 4: Jordan Morris goes back in it. They got the pks.

815
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,760
Speaker 4: The loss on the pks a bit of a revenge

816
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:08,279
Speaker 4: this afternoon, Pete.

817
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:10,719
Speaker 22: I think that's the biggest thing for the guys who

818
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 22: played in that game, and certainly the coaches. This is

819
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,120
Speaker 22: a revenge match. Seattle could have won that in two

820
00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 22: games and went it to three, went.

821
00:40:18,080 --> 00:40:21,279
Speaker 23: To penalty kicks. So I think Chance said a good thing.

822
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:25,160
Speaker 22: You've got to respect Minnesota today because this is a

823
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 22: team that Brian Schmeser doesn't like to play against. These

824
00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 22: teams that get hammered six nothing and then come into

825
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,520
Speaker 22: a game. But I will say this, Danny, I love

826
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 22: where our team's at right now. The next player comes in,

827
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 22: does the job. Alex Holdon sitting in the middle of

828
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 22: the park as center back. Now, no hiccups. It goes

829
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,000
Speaker 22: the way it's supposed to go. So I like this

830
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 22: team a lot, and everybody's getting their opportunities to contribute.

831
00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 4: Yep, sound has have a chance to get another three points.

832
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,000
Speaker 4: It's been a good run of form, of course. The

833
00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:54,839
Speaker 4: only loss so far against RSL not two to one

834
00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 4: loss at RSL. The Sounders don't have a great record there,

835
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 4: as we talked about during that game one since twenty

836
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,600
Speaker 4: eleven there, but the Sounder since then have really had

837
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 4: a good run against a top team in Vancouver. Really

838
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 4: put those guys to bed. As the ball goes down

839
00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 4: the right hand side early for the sound just ricochets

840
00:41:10,920 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 4: off the ankles of Azaze, who, as Brian Schwetz has said,

841
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:18,439
Speaker 4: joined the week, especially in his scrum yesterday, needs a goal.

842
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 4: Masoski got off the board of course against Vancouver. I

843
00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 4: mean a good group of players that came off the bench.

844
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 4: Paul Rothrock included got that two to one win after

845
00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:32,400
Speaker 4: coming from behind in that particular game, after taking control

846
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 4: of things three zero up going into that game in Spokene,

847
00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,680
Speaker 4: and by all accounts, the players enjoyed the atmosphere, was

848
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,240
Speaker 4: a great trip to the eastern side of the state,

849
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:43,600
Speaker 4: and now they had to go all the way towards

850
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 4: the east coast. The ball gets flicked up in the

851
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:48,840
Speaker 4: air by Minnesota top of the box, flicked away by Diaz,

852
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,600
Speaker 4: drops into new who who fakes the shot, drops it

853
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:53,360
Speaker 4: back to roll down. Who's going to be involved, of

854
00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 4: course with the US men's national team in the upcoming games.

855
00:41:57,160 --> 00:41:59,680
Speaker 4: Colony on that right hand side Sound has just starting

856
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 4: to take a little bit of control. It's been possession

857
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,719
Speaker 4: below fifty percent in a good chunk of the last

858
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,640
Speaker 4: few games. They've had to absorb some pressure, but they've

859
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,720
Speaker 4: been coming away with these tight wins. One goal victory

860
00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:13,120
Speaker 4: is in the last three games, two to one against Vancouver,

861
00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 4: one nil each against Saint Louis and San Jose. So

862
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,319
Speaker 4: defense is back playing the way they should. Pete and

863
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,719
Speaker 4: the nicking knows goals and getting these important wins.

864
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:23,440
Speaker 23: And so is Minnesota.

865
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 22: Right now, we're looking at their shape five across the back,

866
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:29,040
Speaker 22: three in front of them. We saw this last year

867
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 22: with Minnesota with Ramsey as the head coach. So Minnesota

868
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,560
Speaker 22: looks like they're it makes sense, that's what they know.

869
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:39,480
Speaker 22: Knowles was his assistant. But right off the bat and

870
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 22: Seattle we're two minutes in and has good possession of

871
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 22: the ball and Minnesota happy to just sit back.

872
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,279
Speaker 4: Yep, they've been in a four. But certainly, as even

873
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,319
Speaker 4: branch Metza mentioned it, sometimes Dnavia team is set up

874
00:42:52,360 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 4: a certain way with Ramsey. Of course, they had gotten

875
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 4: all time low possession count last year forty percent. No

876
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 4: other team in LA in the era of MLS has

877
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 4: got less than that percentage counting possession this year forty

878
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:08,600
Speaker 4: five percent. Not a big tickup, but it comes Georgie.

879
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 4: You need a big game from Georgie today. Is he

880
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 4: comes off that left hand side, Roy's neck is in

881
00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:14,520
Speaker 4: the middle, will dictate play as a number ten to

882
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,840
Speaker 4: the right hand side to Alex stepped up from his

883
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 4: right center back spot today and there is Rothrock is

884
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 4: the man of the hour so far in the last

885
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:23,399
Speaker 4: couple of weeks. He he of course, signed his big

886
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 4: contract in the offseason, looked around across the league and

887
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 4: abroad and then decided that it was the Sounders and

888
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,040
Speaker 4: his hometown club was the place that he wanted to

889
00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 4: be Soundy's contract. And it's been a storming start coming

890
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,640
Speaker 4: off the bench in the sixth minute, of course for

891
00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:42,080
Speaker 4: Jordan Morris, who thankfully he's on the bench again today

892
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,080
Speaker 4: after coming off early in that first game. But here

893
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,479
Speaker 4: come the sound Is inside the box left hand side

894
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:49,480
Speaker 4: with Rossneck drops it back to roll down to Rossneck

895
00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 4: to knew who sound is getting good possession in the

896
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 4: attacking half of the field to start this game. Four

897
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 4: minutes in nil nil. Here comes Georgie on the right foot,

898
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 4: clips and then it takes a deflection top of the box,

899
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 4: headed away by Minnesota, picked up by Petkovich, who Brian

900
00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,520
Speaker 4: is mentioned as having a good start to his Sounders career,

901
00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,520
Speaker 4: got a start last week. Top of the boxes, Petkovich

902
00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:11,760
Speaker 4: a little give and go with us Azi can't quite connect.

903
00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,360
Speaker 4: Here's ru'sneck in the box, talks about to Asazi strikes

904
00:44:14,360 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 4: a good block by Minnesota. Ricochet's out but Sounders still

905
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 4: have it farst side the right with Rothrock whips it

906
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,080
Speaker 4: in with his right foot headed cleared by Minnesota just

907
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 4: the top of the box. Petkovich brings it down. Well,

908
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,880
Speaker 4: Sounders have got good early possession here. Try to test

909
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 4: the goalkeeper calendars come in from Miami. Ball down the

910
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:35,640
Speaker 4: line towards Rothrock. It gets blocked out and it's marketing it.

911
00:44:35,719 --> 00:44:37,920
Speaker 4: She got nine assists on his campaign last year from

912
00:44:37,960 --> 00:44:41,920
Speaker 4: that left sided spot, so really good campaign for him.

913
00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:44,479
Speaker 4: The ball pops up into the air, but good start

914
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:45,959
Speaker 4: for Sounders. Pete Feuing.

915
00:44:46,400 --> 00:44:48,319
Speaker 22: Yeah, this is the first time the ball's been in

916
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,440
Speaker 22: the Seattle Sounders half, and it was Alex Rodon who

917
00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:53,560
Speaker 22: played it backward into Actually.

918
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,879
Speaker 23: It's the second time. I'll give it two times now.

919
00:44:55,920 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 22: But yeah, this looks like one of those games where

920
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 22: it's almost a offense de offensive scrimmage.

921
00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 23: We were about five.

922
00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:05,800
Speaker 22: Minutes in and Seattle has put Minnesota on their heels.

923
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,960
Speaker 22: You talk about Rothrock, I'm very pleased that he stayed here.

924
00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:12,239
Speaker 22: Is a Seattle guy. He had better options financially, but

925
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,520
Speaker 22: he chose to stay with his hometown team, and I

926
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 22: know the city's happy about that. I also know the

927
00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,040
Speaker 22: coaches are happy with four goals in all competitions and

928
00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 22: one assists.

929
00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:23,120
Speaker 4: And I'm sure his family who's rooted in the Seattle

930
00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 4: area of course, is happy as well. It comes new

931
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:30,560
Speaker 4: left hand side. Just calming things down, it seems like

932
00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,080
Speaker 4: the Sounds we'll get a good bulk of possession today.

933
00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 4: Just the manner in which Minnesota are setting up. Of course,

934
00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 4: they're still wounded after that six Niel dropping from Vancouver

935
00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,239
Speaker 4: last week because they boll flicked away by Daz picked

936
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:47,479
Speaker 4: up on this near side by Kyle Duncan, who came

937
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:51,120
Speaker 4: in in the early part of pre season eight years

938
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 4: at New York Red Bulls. Did Duncan, Jamaica national team player,

939
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:58,920
Speaker 4: was involved in the World Cup qualifiers. So this Minnesota

940
00:45:59,000 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 4: try to kind of shut up up, make sure that

941
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:02,799
Speaker 4: they try to stem the tide of the Sounders, and

942
00:46:02,800 --> 00:46:05,920
Speaker 4: a buoyant Sounders at that. I certainly want to make

943
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:08,839
Speaker 4: sure they don't give up anything cheap early on here,

944
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:11,840
Speaker 4: as they did of course against Vancouver as the balls

945
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 4: launched forward by Minnesota well defended in Marshall by Lopez,

946
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,960
Speaker 4: who has mentioned during in the press this week got

947
00:46:19,000 --> 00:46:23,160
Speaker 4: his first team contract after of course being with the

948
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 4: Defiance for a couple of years. That signed alongside Kilaney

949
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:30,200
Speaker 4: in twenty four now gets his official markup on the

950
00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:33,440
Speaker 4: first team, and Bryan Schmitz had probably something to do

951
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,759
Speaker 4: with that, imagine the head coach, and certainly his postmatch

952
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,399
Speaker 4: comments video came out. He was like talking to Craig

953
00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:42,839
Speaker 4: Whibe about signing Lopez and Craig stepped up.

954
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:43,759
Speaker 23: Yeah, that's it.

955
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 22: I Brian did throw Craig under the bus. Choice A choice, Yeah,

956
00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:51,840
Speaker 22: I think that must have been in the works prior

957
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 22: to that game. But boy, Lopez came right in and

958
00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:57,920
Speaker 22: looked just the part. Very good on the ball, had

959
00:46:57,920 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 22: some good blocks.

960
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,680
Speaker 4: Fantastic clear off the line. Is as good as a goal.

961
00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:04,360
Speaker 22: Right, Yeah, what a great start for a young man. Yeah,

962
00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,480
Speaker 22: Thomas gets a little hand on it, but it's going

963
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:09,760
Speaker 22: in and he throws his body at it and tangles

964
00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:12,280
Speaker 22: up in the net and saves the scores.

965
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,040
Speaker 23: So yeah, a good start for him.

966
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 22: And Peter Kingston's on the bench right now and he's

967
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 22: kind of in that same waiting position, hoping he can

968
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:21,359
Speaker 22: get a first team contract as well. He looked very

969
00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:23,439
Speaker 22: good to assist in the Vancouver game.

970
00:47:24,080 --> 00:47:26,200
Speaker 4: Is Petkevich left on the side right in front of

971
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,200
Speaker 4: the bench for Brian Schmidtz's.

972
00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:31,759
Speaker 22: Men, Danny, I love how this team develops players. And

973
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:35,239
Speaker 22: you know Colon, he's one that's emerged up. Paul Rothrock's one.

974
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 23: Who's come through the system.

975
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:39,400
Speaker 22: There's so many guys on this team that have emerged

976
00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 22: and when they get their chance, they do it. And

977
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,200
Speaker 22: it's because there's so much cohesiveness here.

978
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:44,960
Speaker 4: Come the sound is right hand's side is Klin. He

979
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,440
Speaker 4: tries to step inside, He's blocked out well by a

980
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,600
Speaker 4: couple of Minnesota of defenders. Here's your bow on his

981
00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,680
Speaker 4: own for a little while, but in support is schan

982
00:47:52,760 --> 00:47:54,880
Speaker 4: Ki Lee. The play from New England who came in

983
00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:57,719
Speaker 4: the offseason, drops his left shoulder, comes in on his

984
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:02,320
Speaker 4: right foot, back to the outside to Markenich, to Shankly,

985
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:05,120
Speaker 4: to Trap who's been with Minnesota for a couple of years.

986
00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:08,360
Speaker 4: Of course, Sony Dotson was an anchor here for a

987
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,320
Speaker 4: good number of years on dred over one hundred and

988
00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 4: seventy appearances for Minnesota in his time here. Moved, of

989
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:17,200
Speaker 4: course to the Sounders in the off season. Federal Way

990
00:48:17,280 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 4: native wanted to come back home, had some of the options.

991
00:48:20,200 --> 00:48:21,800
Speaker 4: I talked to him this week. It's a shame that

992
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 4: you can't make it today because of course, that concussion

993
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:27,120
Speaker 4: protocol and he's just working through that. But he was

994
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:29,960
Speaker 4: out in the grass this week and he was buoyant

995
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:32,879
Speaker 4: and happy with the move and the environment that he's

996
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:36,560
Speaker 4: immersed himself in. Now got some good experience. And of

997
00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:40,560
Speaker 4: course with Obed who continues to prosper Athletico Madrid playing

998
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 4: it's their arch rivals Real Madrid today in a big

999
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:48,839
Speaker 4: Madrid derby, or see if you'll get minutes there. But

1000
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,000
Speaker 4: for Obed, certainly it shows you too have pipeline Pete.

1001
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,319
Speaker 4: But that's about the top of the pyramid right there

1002
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:58,279
Speaker 4: in terms of a player developed in the system from Alaska,

1003
00:48:58,400 --> 00:49:00,959
Speaker 4: made the move here in the academy to work through

1004
00:49:01,040 --> 00:49:03,160
Speaker 4: all the way through every level, and then he goes

1005
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 4: to one of the top ten to fifteen clubs in

1006
00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:07,160
Speaker 4: the world and he's making a mark.

1007
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 23: It's amazing.

1008
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,799
Speaker 22: When you say Alaska and Madrid, you don't think of

1009
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:14,840
Speaker 22: the pipeline from the Alaska pipeline. How about that from

1010
00:49:15,719 --> 00:49:18,120
Speaker 22: going to Alaska all the way to Madrid is pretty phenomenal.

1011
00:49:18,200 --> 00:49:21,480
Speaker 22: So you know, I Cam Weaver, a former sounder, siet

1012
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:24,480
Speaker 22: you guy. He's got a young son, Bastion, and I said,

1013
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:27,600
Speaker 22: he's about eleven years old. I said, oh, Bed, going

1014
00:49:27,640 --> 00:49:30,280
Speaker 22: to Madrid helps your kid and it helps your kids.

1015
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:30,920
Speaker 23: You know.

1016
00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,840
Speaker 22: It's one of those where it puts the Seattle Sounders

1017
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:35,759
Speaker 22: on the map if they can get to this team.

1018
00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,160
Speaker 4: Well, certainly a pipeline of players who have come through

1019
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,520
Speaker 4: the college ranks or the academy ranks, defiance ranks on

1020
00:49:41,560 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 4: the field today of course, as far as they came

1021
00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 4: in from Canada. Started as Afiance made his mark, obviously

1022
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:48,920
Speaker 4: took his chance last year in the League's Cup. And

1023
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:50,719
Speaker 4: it comes as sound as a Petkovich into that man

1024
00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:52,879
Speaker 4: az He can't bring it down to tough ball, tough

1025
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 4: eji ball, surrounded by dark shirts of Minnesota as Ramera

1026
00:49:56,560 --> 00:49:58,879
Speaker 4: tries to play the ball in, but he's played into

1027
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,479
Speaker 4: the midfield for Minnesota, lost by shankily and it's picked

1028
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 4: up by the Sounders. As roll Don breaks the light

1029
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:07,320
Speaker 4: into Azazi, it goes and dug in just about sticks

1030
00:50:07,360 --> 00:50:10,720
Speaker 4: that size twelve boot out and blocks it out. Minnesota

1031
00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,200
Speaker 4: come away with it with trapped down the outside far side.

1032
00:50:13,560 --> 00:50:17,279
Speaker 4: Minnesota's left trated well by Lopez against your bo had

1033
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,239
Speaker 4: a great start to his career against the Sounders of

1034
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,240
Speaker 4: two goals. Here he is inside the box. Good tracking

1035
00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:25,200
Speaker 4: by the Sounders, says Andrew Thomas lets it in. It's

1036
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 4: a little barging behind by Lopez. Your bo goes down

1037
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:29,120
Speaker 4: the crowd, won a penalty.

1038
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:30,160
Speaker 2: Nothing there.

1039
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:34,719
Speaker 4: Andrew Thomas grabs that ball from the deck, rolls it

1040
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:37,120
Speaker 4: out and we start on that far side. They're right

1041
00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 4: with Kilaney.

1042
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 22: Well that's the concern right there, isn't it, Danny. We've

1043
00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,040
Speaker 22: we've been in their end for eleven minutes. They get

1044
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:47,160
Speaker 22: one sort of counter attack and it looks dangerous. So

1045
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:48,920
Speaker 22: we've got to put a goal in the back of

1046
00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:51,719
Speaker 22: the net. We've had some good combination play, but we've

1047
00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:52,840
Speaker 22: got to put something away.

1048
00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,880
Speaker 4: And of course take away the playoffs. The Sounders that

1049
00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 4: lost both games against Minnesota and regular season last year

1050
00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:01,840
Speaker 4: one nil here three at Luhman that was the only loss.

1051
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:04,399
Speaker 4: Last year at lumen Field, that three to two loss

1052
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:08,400
Speaker 4: at Painful three to two loss. Of course, Prayer, who

1053
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 4: is out in the field today is the defacto attacking

1054
00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:16,000
Speaker 4: midfield player, the Argentinian. He's he's a player that got

1055
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 4: that decisive goal last year in that one nil regular

1056
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:24,560
Speaker 4: season home win. In the playoffs here was both games

1057
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:29,120
Speaker 4: here went to penalties. Sounders unfortunately, of course, lost both

1058
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,359
Speaker 4: those penalties. There was a three nil win at home

1059
00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,239
Speaker 4: against Minnesota in that second game, and Sounders felt like

1060
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 4: they were in good control in that third game, but

1061
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:40,600
Speaker 4: it was crosses from the outside that caught them out.

1062
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,560
Speaker 4: You see down on our monitor hear Pete the replay

1063
00:51:43,640 --> 00:51:46,160
Speaker 4: with Yo Boa. Good strong player, but marshalled well by

1064
00:51:46,200 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 4: four Sounders green shirts, and eventually Andrew Thomas and a

1065
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:54,240
Speaker 4: collection of defenders including the rolled Arm brothers, just cleans

1066
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:54,799
Speaker 4: things up.

1067
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,160
Speaker 23: Yeah, Yoboa's a good strong forward.

1068
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:00,400
Speaker 22: Two goals already this season and drew three Seattle Sounders

1069
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:01,960
Speaker 22: right there, and it creates a handful.

1070
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,920
Speaker 23: He's a bit Ozaz Lake. As far as the big body, yeah.

1071
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:09,280
Speaker 4: Big body, nephew. Believe Tonya Bow the old leg United legend.

1072
00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:11,960
Speaker 4: I remember being a ball boy when Tonio Bow scored

1073
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,320
Speaker 4: that goal. I think it was the ninety six opening

1074
00:52:14,400 --> 00:52:16,560
Speaker 4: game against Liverpool and he banged one in. It was

1075
00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,719
Speaker 4: goal of the season against Liverpool at Ellen Road and

1076
00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:21,320
Speaker 4: I was right behind it and you could see this

1077
00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:23,959
Speaker 4: pool just knuckle in the top corner. I still remember.

1078
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 4: That was thirty years ago.

1079
00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,239
Speaker 23: Was it the ninety six minute or ninety first minute.

1080
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:29,000
Speaker 23: What did you say?

1081
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:30,719
Speaker 4: I don't know what he was. I think it was

1082
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 4: the first half. Gosh it was he rocketed it and

1083
00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 4: said no yea. In nineteen ninety six, okay, maick on

1084
00:52:36,719 --> 00:52:38,520
Speaker 4: the sound as cornerkick on their left hand side in

1085
00:52:38,600 --> 00:52:41,080
Speaker 4: Swinger one, I'm up in the air is ro'sneck with

1086
00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:44,000
Speaker 4: his right foot? Can we get some good delivery from rosneck?

1087
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,480
Speaker 4: Sounds being better at cornerkicks this year. Bought to the

1088
00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:48,839
Speaker 4: back posts. Up in the air, it goes Romero heads

1089
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:51,600
Speaker 4: it up, just flicks it away, ball bounces out, rams

1090
00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:55,279
Speaker 4: into the back of Lopez, goes into rathdrocks on side

1091
00:52:55,320 --> 00:52:57,200
Speaker 4: towards the end line, drops it back far side the

1092
00:52:57,280 --> 00:52:58,959
Speaker 4: right klin. He whips it in with his right foot,

1093
00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:02,320
Speaker 4: headed by George over the topic, goes Candadas. Let's it go,

1094
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:04,120
Speaker 4: hits the top of the net. It's gonna be a

1095
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 4: goalkick even the thirteenth minute. In Saint Paul, Minnesota, Sports

1096
00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:11,520
Speaker 4: Radio nine fifty AM Minnesota Nil Sounders nil.

1097
00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 22: Pete Jackson and I chatted with Ricardo Clark, the new

1098
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:18,120
Speaker 22: assistant coach, yesterday, and he talked about restarts. I think

1099
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,080
Speaker 22: the team's been pleased with what he's brought to the team,

1100
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:23,600
Speaker 22: and he said there might be some wrinkles today to

1101
00:53:23,760 --> 00:53:24,279
Speaker 22: keep an eye on.

1102
00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:27,640
Speaker 23: So well, Ricardo had a little smile on his face.

1103
00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was one hundred and eighty plus corner kicks

1104
00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:31,319
Speaker 4: last year when the Sounders got their first goal. They've

1105
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:33,600
Speaker 4: got a couple thereafter this year. I think it was

1106
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:35,600
Speaker 4: less than ten. I think it's nine corner kicks by

1107
00:53:35,640 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 4: a time. Rolled On got his head on that corner

1108
00:53:37,960 --> 00:53:42,359
Speaker 4: kick from Ruzzneck against RSL consolation goal in the end,

1109
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:44,240
Speaker 4: but good to get off the mark from set pieces.

1110
00:53:44,280 --> 00:53:46,040
Speaker 4: As the ball gets to the ryanside inside the box

1111
00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:48,560
Speaker 4: with Rothrock, Romero comes across his heads that it went

1112
00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:51,800
Speaker 4: over the endline. It goes another corner kick, second cornerkick

1113
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:54,680
Speaker 4: in as many minutes, this time from the right hand side,

1114
00:53:54,680 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 4: and the Sounders are starting to prod the sells through

1115
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,360
Speaker 4: the attacking third of the field. That getting some chances,

1116
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:06,879
Speaker 4: starting to get in behind that back five right now

1117
00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:11,120
Speaker 4: can they execute sometimes away from home it's set pieces

1118
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:14,440
Speaker 4: and becomes so vital and the Sounders with the big

1119
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,919
Speaker 4: bodies of Derozario and Lopez, no Jackson, Reagan, of course,

1120
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:21,120
Speaker 4: no Yema of course today, so they're gonna have to

1121
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:23,279
Speaker 4: make do with some of the players out there. The

1122
00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:25,359
Speaker 4: ball goes in good delivery to ozaz Is, the big

1123
00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:28,440
Speaker 4: body in the box. The ball gets poked away by Triantis,

1124
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:31,120
Speaker 4: the Australian. Of course, It's got a wonder goal a

1125
00:54:31,200 --> 00:54:34,239
Speaker 4: couple of weeks ago against Nashville from twenty five thirty yards.

1126
00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:36,520
Speaker 4: When it comes Minnesota on the counter, you bowed down

1127
00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:39,120
Speaker 4: the right hand side. Triantis to his right, floats out

1128
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:41,000
Speaker 4: top of the boxes. You bow tries to flick it

1129
00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:44,319
Speaker 4: around the corner, just about keeps it in marshaled well

1130
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,080
Speaker 4: by Petkevich.

1131
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 2: Has left foot.

1132
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,040
Speaker 4: He's going to launch it down the line. Good play

1133
00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:51,160
Speaker 4: by Georgie goes down. It seems an obvious fowl. Yes

1134
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:53,359
Speaker 4: it is. A referee just puts the whistle to his mouth.

1135
00:54:55,160 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 4: He was Duggan that brought down Georgie, who held the

1136
00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:01,560
Speaker 4: ball look well won the fowl. Sounders free kick inside

1137
00:55:01,600 --> 00:55:02,319
Speaker 4: their half of the field.

1138
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:04,959
Speaker 23: Ricardo did say that we have a small team today.

1139
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:05,560
Speaker 4: You just mentioned it.

1140
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:08,440
Speaker 23: No Reagan, no yea mar so we might see a

1141
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 23: little bit of.

1142
00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:12,160
Speaker 4: That's not good. No down on the deck goes Alex

1143
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,480
Speaker 4: rolled on. He's just looking up to the sky right now.

1144
00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:18,000
Speaker 23: Yeah, he came out in a secle. Yeah, limping, trying

1145
00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:18,719
Speaker 23: to track back.

1146
00:55:19,040 --> 00:55:21,520
Speaker 4: Hopefully it's a knock. But when when you hold your

1147
00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:23,799
Speaker 4: knee or your quad, it looks like his knee may

1148
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:24,440
Speaker 4: be jammed.

1149
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:26,400
Speaker 23: Yeah, it looks like that.

1150
00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,680
Speaker 4: Now you got some challenges. You're Jackson Reagan on the bench.

1151
00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:31,520
Speaker 4: You were supposed to play forty five. Last week. It's

1152
00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 4: San Jose, but the game was for the taking. But

1153
00:55:33,560 --> 00:55:36,600
Speaker 4: Jackson Reagan, of course, as Bien Schweitzer mentioned this week

1154
00:55:36,640 --> 00:55:38,279
Speaker 4: as well in the press, is playing at such a

1155
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:41,800
Speaker 4: high level and for the Sounders it's just another central

1156
00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:44,839
Speaker 4: defender down Yamar a couple of weeks ago. Now it's

1157
00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:48,040
Speaker 4: Alex who's gone inside from his right back spot just

1158
00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 4: top of his hip flex who's showing maybe he just

1159
00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:53,319
Speaker 4: jammed it, hopefully versus anything more serious. We'll see if

1160
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 4: Chris Cornish and the medical SUNFF can make some magic

1161
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,439
Speaker 4: happen here. And getting back on his feet, because Ryan

1162
00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:03,799
Speaker 4: Sailor from Miami still not back. Started to see him

1163
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 4: on the grass a little bit in the last couple

1164
00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:08,000
Speaker 4: of weeks, but he's not an option. Jackson Reagan is

1165
00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:10,719
Speaker 4: going to be the option. Sounders have two weeks off

1166
00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:13,920
Speaker 4: until their next game due to the international break, so

1167
00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:17,040
Speaker 4: I'm sure Jackson was going to get introduced at some point,

1168
00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 4: potentially today if needed, but not so early. Pete seventeenth minute,

1169
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:24,439
Speaker 4: nil nil. And now you got an issue with Alex

1170
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:24,840
Speaker 4: rolled On.

1171
00:56:25,440 --> 00:56:28,200
Speaker 22: He's a pretty tough kid, and the way he's pointing

1172
00:56:28,239 --> 00:56:30,719
Speaker 22: to his hip and the way he was running back,

1173
00:56:30,760 --> 00:56:35,279
Speaker 22: you could tell that something wasn't right until you know,

1174
00:56:35,560 --> 00:56:38,839
Speaker 22: it's thirty eight degrees there. I think today early morning,

1175
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:44,319
Speaker 22: game ish, so we'll hopefully he get this thing moving again.

1176
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:47,040
Speaker 23: Yep, because he does not go down easy.

1177
00:56:47,239 --> 00:56:47,399
Speaker 16: Yep.

1178
00:56:47,480 --> 00:56:54,000
Speaker 4: Colden Brisker's spring starts this approach here in the central

1179
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,399
Speaker 4: area of the country. Of course, it's been all sorts

1180
00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:59,120
Speaker 4: of crazy weather over the US over the last couple

1181
00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,160
Speaker 4: of weeks. You've had no on the East coach of

1182
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:03,920
Speaker 4: a one hundred plus degree weather on the West coast.

1183
00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:07,959
Speaker 4: As Alex rolled On just gingerly walks off the field

1184
00:57:08,040 --> 00:57:10,560
Speaker 4: with the medical staff, will see if the Sounders and

1185
00:57:10,640 --> 00:57:12,719
Speaker 4: Brian Schmittz will give him a chance just to kind

1186
00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:13,480
Speaker 4: of work through it.

1187
00:57:14,440 --> 00:57:17,320
Speaker 22: He shook his head no against when Albert came to himself.

1188
00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:19,760
Speaker 22: He's trying now, that's all he gets back.

1189
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:24,960
Speaker 4: He's just working through it. Yeah, Broan Schmittz having a

1190
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:27,560
Speaker 4: little word with his medical stuff. Chris Cornish just having

1191
00:57:27,640 --> 00:57:30,120
Speaker 4: a word as well in his microphone. Sounders got itself

1192
00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:31,840
Speaker 4: back into us the other roll darn brother in the

1193
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 4: Christian Who's going to slide back to that right back spot?

1194
00:57:35,080 --> 00:57:38,439
Speaker 4: So options really are Jackson Reagan even knew who could

1195
00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:41,760
Speaker 4: slide potentially inside play alongside Lopez. But then you've got

1196
00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:45,360
Speaker 4: really two inexperienced center backs against a team that's already

1197
00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:48,280
Speaker 4: showcased itself that they will absorb pressure and then hit

1198
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,720
Speaker 4: the Sounders on the brake. It's a poor bobbody knew

1199
00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 4: who put him in a spot trouble on to Lopez,

1200
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:56,360
Speaker 4: laid it back and said take that. Lopez took care

1201
00:57:56,400 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 4: of it. Nauntched it out on this near side for

1202
00:57:58,920 --> 00:57:59,320
Speaker 4: a thrown.

1203
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,400
Speaker 22: Do you know what his first MLS start gave nw

1204
00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:03,360
Speaker 22: who a little luck there, didn't he? He wasn't too

1205
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 22: pleased with that ball. That knew who rolled back to him.

1206
00:58:06,040 --> 00:58:06,920
Speaker 4: But he did the right thing.

1207
00:58:07,000 --> 00:58:08,920
Speaker 22: He launched it out of bounds. If you try to

1208
00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 22: go straight up the middle, it can carry him off

1209
00:58:10,920 --> 00:58:11,600
Speaker 22: one of their players.

1210
00:58:12,040 --> 00:58:14,400
Speaker 4: Well, no boxil today was along throw of my show,

1211
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 4: but it is Duncan's gonna throw it in not quite

1212
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:18,320
Speaker 4: as fast. Bob bounced inside the eighteen yard that's picked

1213
00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:20,800
Speaker 4: up by Ozaz. Big body of Osarzi comes back to help.

1214
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:24,560
Speaker 4: He tries to wriggle free. It clicks a nick off

1215
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:26,520
Speaker 4: Duncan on this near side, right in front of head

1216
00:58:26,520 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 4: coach Cameron Knowles, and it's going to be a Sounders

1217
00:58:28,600 --> 00:58:32,320
Speaker 4: throw on the Sounders left hand side. Well, tonight's match

1218
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:36,920
Speaker 4: is presented by Western Washington Toyota Dealers. Get here in

1219
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:41,560
Speaker 4: the nineteenth minute Minnesota nil, Sounders nil. And of course

1220
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:45,400
Speaker 4: Tgress awaits the Sounders in the quarter finals of Conker

1221
00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:48,680
Speaker 4: Caff Play. Games coming thick and fast for the Sounders.

1222
00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:52,360
Speaker 4: Eighth of April, they traveled to Mexico for that first

1223
00:58:52,480 --> 00:58:55,880
Speaker 4: leg and then back on the fifteenth on Grass, which

1224
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,400
Speaker 4: will be the third game on the new grass in

1225
00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:02,800
Speaker 4: many days out four days it is with RSL and

1226
00:59:02,880 --> 00:59:05,720
Speaker 4: the twelfth, the fourteenth, the US women's national team play

1227
00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:09,440
Speaker 4: at lumen Field and then the fifteenth scheduled for Tigress

1228
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:12,320
Speaker 4: and they have to get FIFA. They have to get

1229
00:59:12,360 --> 00:59:17,200
Speaker 4: FIFA approval for that, but it comes the Sounders now.

1230
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:20,480
Speaker 4: It's working their way through Alex Waldan back on the field.

1231
00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:23,120
Speaker 4: As he's collects it right now on that far side

1232
00:59:23,160 --> 00:59:25,240
Speaker 4: the right. We'll see how he strikes it, how he

1233
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:28,480
Speaker 4: feels that hip flex or is his right hip that

1234
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:31,520
Speaker 4: he was pointing to, so they launched a ball long.

1235
00:59:31,600 --> 00:59:33,040
Speaker 4: We'll see it there in the after effects of that

1236
00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:35,800
Speaker 4: as he loses the balls and the area of his

1237
00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:37,440
Speaker 4: game that he just needs to use that big body

1238
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 4: and support his teammates by holding the ball up as

1239
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:42,480
Speaker 4: a number nine p in a four two three one,

1240
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:44,480
Speaker 4: it's so pivotal to play your back to goal, be

1241
00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:45,960
Speaker 4: that big body, especially away from home.

1242
00:59:46,080 --> 00:59:47,200
Speaker 23: Yeah, simplify your game.

1243
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:50,960
Speaker 22: Post up, get your body into someone, be a good target,

1244
00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:52,480
Speaker 22: lay them all off and spin.

1245
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:54,720
Speaker 23: Yeah, he's got to simplify it and try not to

1246
00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:55,320
Speaker 23: do too much.

1247
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:58,360
Speaker 22: And if he can stay high so that Seattle has

1248
00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:01,040
Speaker 22: an option coming up out of the back, that will

1249
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:03,120
Speaker 22: help the squad a bit. When you're trying to reach

1250
01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:06,200
Speaker 22: for a goal, sometimes you try to do too much

1251
01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:07,840
Speaker 22: and I think he's just got to simplify and go

1252
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:09,480
Speaker 22: back to what worked last year for him.

1253
01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:11,680
Speaker 4: That's another player that I'm sure that branch Went is

1254
01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:14,800
Speaker 4: messaging to Georgie today, will be just let the game

1255
01:00:14,840 --> 01:00:16,480
Speaker 4: come to you and when you get a chance, you know,

1256
01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:20,480
Speaker 4: attack the players on the outside. But Jackson Reagan is

1257
01:00:20,960 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 4: ready to come on, So the ill effects of that

1258
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:30,000
Speaker 4: injury that Alex has picked up is not subsiding. So

1259
01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 4: big Jackson Reagan earlier than maybe planned for. He's going

1260
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:35,640
Speaker 4: to be coming off the bench, but he has been

1261
01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:38,160
Speaker 4: an absolute rock in the back for the Sounders, so

1262
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,680
Speaker 4: no drop in play. Of course with Jackson coming on,

1263
01:00:41,800 --> 01:00:44,720
Speaker 4: increased experience somewhat from that center back. Roles Rothrock goes

1264
01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:46,120
Speaker 4: down the fast side there, right right in front of

1265
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:47,000
Speaker 4: the assistant referee.

1266
01:00:47,720 --> 01:00:48,920
Speaker 2: Neither the assistant.

1267
01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 4: Referee or the referee who jogs away, absolutely no interest

1268
01:00:52,120 --> 01:00:54,880
Speaker 4: to call the foul. Rothrock and the Green Shirts just

1269
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:59,360
Speaker 4: questioning what is that about boots by Minnesota the referee,

1270
01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:00,880
Speaker 4: he's holding things up, But I'm not sure if we're

1271
01:01:00,880 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 4: going to call this one back. But actually is a sub.

1272
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:05,760
Speaker 4: Boy's still in play unless the referee stopped it for

1273
01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:09,440
Speaker 4: some reason. But roal Don comes off as he jogs

1274
01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,800
Speaker 4: gingerly off, That's not what the Sounders want to see

1275
01:01:11,840 --> 01:01:13,800
Speaker 4: with so many games coming up in the next month,

1276
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:17,320
Speaker 4: but Jackson Reagan will go on. Just a partnership that

1277
01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:21,400
Speaker 4: was there last week in San Jose. Lopez and Jackson

1278
01:01:21,520 --> 01:01:24,640
Speaker 4: were fantastic against San Jose. It was a clean sheet

1279
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:28,840
Speaker 4: last week, so a clean sheet the week before against

1280
01:01:29,720 --> 01:01:33,440
Speaker 4: Saint Louis where Jackson marshalled about four Yemar, of course,

1281
01:01:33,480 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 4: has been mentioned by Brian. I thinks maybe eight weeks

1282
01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:41,080
Speaker 4: for Yamar. We'll see if that is will be that

1283
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,320
Speaker 4: window of time, but that will take us all the

1284
01:01:43,360 --> 01:01:46,880
Speaker 4: way through to the World Cup window, where of course

1285
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:49,439
Speaker 4: the Sounders will take a close to two month break,

1286
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:52,600
Speaker 4: as will all have MLS. As Sounders played their last

1287
01:01:52,640 --> 01:01:55,160
Speaker 4: game in this first part of the season down in

1288
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:59,560
Speaker 4: La against LAFC on Memorial Day weekend, May twenty fourth.

1289
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:02,840
Speaker 4: As a B goes down the line as Jackson challenges

1290
01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:07,240
Speaker 4: SCHUNKLA has ball pop forward, it comes to Rossneck clips

1291
01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 4: it off. Duncan goes out in this near side between

1292
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:12,920
Speaker 4: the two benches, just over the halfway line. Sounders left,

1293
01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:17,560
Speaker 4: Rossneck throws it in. Sound has continue to dominate across

1294
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:21,360
Speaker 4: the board here in possession and possession in good areas,

1295
01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:25,520
Speaker 4: but right now, calendar has not been tested yet. For

1296
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 4: Brian Schmitzer. We've had these situations Pete, where we have

1297
01:02:28,720 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 4: dominated games, we just haven't taken advantage of that possession

1298
01:02:32,080 --> 01:02:34,960
Speaker 4: count or the possession in the attacking third, and we

1299
01:02:35,120 --> 01:02:38,360
Speaker 4: really haven't tested so far calendar. Two shots for the Sounders,

1300
01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:39,760
Speaker 4: but no shots on target.

1301
01:02:39,840 --> 01:02:41,800
Speaker 22: Yeah, not a lot of crossing from the wings from

1302
01:02:41,840 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 22: Georgia or Paul. We need to get that service. And

1303
01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:47,080
Speaker 22: I'm sure Cameron Knowles after a six nothing loss at

1304
01:02:47,640 --> 01:02:50,080
Speaker 22: Vancouver is probably really happy to be in the twenty

1305
01:02:50,160 --> 01:02:51,600
Speaker 22: third minute zero right.

1306
01:02:51,560 --> 01:02:54,959
Speaker 4: Now, ye building some confidence. And as we mentioned, Camra

1307
01:02:55,080 --> 01:02:58,440
Speaker 4: Knowles was interim for three games right before Eric Ramsey

1308
01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:01,040
Speaker 4: came in to hear the hot seat as head coach

1309
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:04,160
Speaker 4: of Minnesota as he was making his way from England

1310
01:03:04,240 --> 01:03:07,400
Speaker 4: at the early stage of the twenty twenty four season.

1311
01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:10,520
Speaker 4: He went to zero to one, so unbeaten in those

1312
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:14,080
Speaker 4: three games. And then he gets the full job after

1313
01:03:14,320 --> 01:03:17,280
Speaker 4: Ramsey left in the off season, and Ramsey of course

1314
01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:19,480
Speaker 4: looking for a job as well after losing a job

1315
01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:24,840
Speaker 4: after nine games. Pretty tough West from It's it's an

1316
01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:28,040
Speaker 4: immediate need. Wilford Nancy of course learned that Lesson harshly

1317
01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:30,600
Speaker 4: as well at Celtic got bombed out within a couple

1318
01:03:30,680 --> 01:03:33,920
Speaker 4: of months. Here come the Sounders left hand side, intoing

1319
01:03:33,960 --> 01:03:35,640
Speaker 4: it by Rosneck with his right foot. This on the

1320
01:03:35,680 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 4: Sounders go short to Petkevich, back to Rosneck. He goes

1321
01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,000
Speaker 4: different angle, ball goes inside. Good play by the sound

1322
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,280
Speaker 4: as it comes rolled on, spins top of the box,

1323
01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 4: strike by Klan. He gets blocked out and now here

1324
01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:50,960
Speaker 4: come Minnesota. The sound is gonna have to sharpen up

1325
01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:54,360
Speaker 4: this transitional play where the Sounders losing and all of

1326
01:03:54,400 --> 01:03:56,640
Speaker 4: a sudden now scampering back. It comes you bo a

1327
01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:59,040
Speaker 4: left hand side left of center, whips it in towards

1328
01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:03,160
Speaker 4: the backstick cushion, the down hooked away. It was Perea

1329
01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:05,480
Speaker 4: that tried to drop it down to I think it

1330
01:04:05,560 --> 01:04:10,240
Speaker 4: was Will Trapp who made a run. And it's going

1331
01:04:10,320 --> 01:04:12,240
Speaker 4: to be Diaz on the right hand side, just over

1332
01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:15,360
Speaker 4: the halfway line on Minnesota's right this near side into

1333
01:04:15,400 --> 01:04:19,480
Speaker 4: Triantis has been quiet so far. As the Australian mentioned,

1334
01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:25,560
Speaker 4: he of course scored for Minnesota against the Sounders just

1335
01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:31,040
Speaker 4: a few months ago. Him in from Australia. Former Sunderland

1336
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,120
Speaker 4: man has made a big impact. You can get up

1337
01:04:34,120 --> 01:04:36,560
Speaker 4: and down the fields were true box to box midfield player,

1338
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:39,800
Speaker 4: good size, strike a ball from distance as well as

1339
01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:43,360
Speaker 4: he showed against Nashville. When it comes Minnesota on their

1340
01:04:43,440 --> 01:04:46,120
Speaker 4: far side left as they build and the Sounder start

1341
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:48,120
Speaker 4: to press a little bit higher now with usase as

1342
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:50,680
Speaker 4: they line the confrontation just skips up the field as

1343
01:04:50,720 --> 01:04:53,400
Speaker 4: the ball goes back to calendar. Him In from Charlotte

1344
01:04:53,440 --> 01:04:57,560
Speaker 4: had one hundred and eighteen appearances for Miami. The boar

1345
01:04:57,680 --> 01:04:59,920
Speaker 4: bounces through and Sounders are going to collect it in

1346
01:05:00,080 --> 01:05:02,840
Speaker 4: side there half of the field well. Sounders FC Soccer

1347
01:05:02,960 --> 01:05:07,480
Speaker 4: is presented by Provident, Swedish official healthcare partner of Sounders FC.

1348
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:11,520
Speaker 4: Twenty fifth minute Minnesota nil Sounders nil. Here in Saint Paul,

1349
01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:16,640
Speaker 4: Minnesota Alliance Field the venue of many a national team game,

1350
01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 4: both on the men's and women's side. One of the

1351
01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:23,200
Speaker 4: true great soccer specific stadiums now in the US. The Minnesota,

1352
01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:26,080
Speaker 4: of course, have been a hotbed of youth sports and

1353
01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:30,240
Speaker 4: pro sports indoor soccer as well. Of course, usl ERA

1354
01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:33,080
Speaker 4: a league gear at Minnesota at a team they joined

1355
01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:37,840
Speaker 4: MLS in twenty seventeen celebrate their decade in MLS and

1356
01:05:37,920 --> 01:05:41,840
Speaker 4: this is their decade kit today, dark shirts and shorts

1357
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:45,440
Speaker 4: and socks. Sounders in possession as they attack the goal

1358
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:48,560
Speaker 4: to our left and their evergreen kit introduced this year

1359
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:52,520
Speaker 4: as well as we get ten dark shirts and the

1360
01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:55,400
Speaker 4: bright purple of calendar back there in behind the ball

1361
01:05:55,440 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 4: top of the box. They hold their line, Port goes inside,

1362
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,120
Speaker 4: takes a deflection off Diaz. I think is about to

1363
01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:02,560
Speaker 4: go over the end line by half a yard. It

1364
01:06:02,600 --> 01:06:05,360
Speaker 4: looked like my vantage point where Free doesn't give it.

1365
01:06:05,400 --> 01:06:06,680
Speaker 4: I think it's a throwing for the Sounders.

1366
01:06:06,720 --> 01:06:07,120
Speaker 2: Yes it is.

1367
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:11,560
Speaker 4: They get in quickly with Petkevich Kilany so I fan

1368
01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:14,800
Speaker 4: out on the far side. The right Sounder is building

1369
01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 4: in possession again. Jackson Regan just stepping in. He needs

1370
01:06:17,360 --> 01:06:19,960
Speaker 4: to get warmed up. I'm sure he was called upon

1371
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,360
Speaker 4: as you mentioned a little bit earlier than thought. He'll

1372
01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:24,840
Speaker 4: have to get his body warmed up, especially nice brisk,

1373
01:06:25,040 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 4: cold confines at Minnesota. And of course, Peep, with the

1374
01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:31,960
Speaker 4: season changing, we'll get your thoughts in minutes. The boy

1375
01:06:32,000 --> 01:06:34,320
Speaker 4: has launched a long headed away by Minnesota, picked up

1376
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:38,000
Speaker 4: by Trap, then poked away by Kilaney. Well, of course

1377
01:06:38,040 --> 01:06:41,560
Speaker 4: that the season now starting to mirror what happens all

1378
01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:44,400
Speaker 4: around the world. Minnesota is going to be a pretty

1379
01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:47,320
Speaker 4: brisk place to play in late December and then early

1380
01:06:47,400 --> 01:06:49,959
Speaker 4: February and the season gets going again after that winter break.

1381
01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,520
Speaker 4: And I know that was a call for concern for

1382
01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:55,720
Speaker 4: some of these teams that play in climates like Toronto

1383
01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:57,840
Speaker 4: and Minnesota, New England even as well.

1384
01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:01,120
Speaker 22: So I don't think MESSI signed up for snow. And

1385
01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:04,200
Speaker 22: you know, fifteen degree weather stayed at.

1386
01:07:04,120 --> 01:07:07,560
Speaker 4: Yankee Stadium today, so this small field as well. There

1387
01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:11,240
Speaker 4: it's a no ideal for playmaking. Number ten.

1388
01:07:11,520 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 22: Well, you think of the Minnesota Vikings in the NFL

1389
01:07:14,440 --> 01:07:16,480
Speaker 22: days and playing with the snow all around them, So yeah,

1390
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:19,240
Speaker 22: they'll face a completely different climate than what they're used

1391
01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:23,120
Speaker 22: to for a much long stretches of the season. I

1392
01:07:23,160 --> 01:07:25,920
Speaker 22: remember as a kid watching the Minnesota Kickers Roger Goodwin,

1393
01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:27,200
Speaker 22: I played with you, Dub.

1394
01:07:27,360 --> 01:07:30,920
Speaker 23: His father, Freddie was a Manchester United guy and was

1395
01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:31,680
Speaker 23: the head coach there.

1396
01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:33,960
Speaker 4: All over the top, brought down well, track well by

1397
01:07:34,040 --> 01:07:38,240
Speaker 4: the Sounders back line, hooked away and cleared by Lopez,

1398
01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:41,280
Speaker 4: just got back so clean things up. It was good

1399
01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:44,600
Speaker 4: digler ball from the right over the left and combination

1400
01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:47,440
Speaker 4: of Kilanie and Lopez do clean things up. Lopez will

1401
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:49,840
Speaker 4: play on that right hand side now shifting to Alex

1402
01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:53,560
Speaker 4: rolled On spot. Reagan to that left center back spot.

1403
01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:56,400
Speaker 22: Dad, I think we got to move a little quicker

1404
01:07:56,480 --> 01:07:59,360
Speaker 22: and I think we'd get Kilanie and Rothrock involved on

1405
01:07:59,440 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 22: that right hand.

1406
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:03,560
Speaker 4: YEP possession of sixty eight percent, but possession with a

1407
01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:05,800
Speaker 4: purpose as we know. But here comes Georgie. Now he's

1408
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:07,520
Speaker 4: a player that can step out the pace if he can,

1409
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:11,040
Speaker 4: but mastered well, buy two dark shirts and Duncan and Diaz.

1410
01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:13,520
Speaker 4: Top of the box now is Rothrock plays it quickly.

1411
01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:15,400
Speaker 4: Ball bounced around on top of the box, picked up

1412
01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:18,080
Speaker 4: by Georgie. Had a chance to go down on his

1413
01:08:18,200 --> 01:08:20,400
Speaker 4: player as Georgie stays on his feet ten yards from

1414
01:08:20,400 --> 01:08:22,360
Speaker 4: the end line, looking try and drop his shoulder and

1415
01:08:22,439 --> 01:08:23,960
Speaker 4: go towards the end line. Here he goes towards the

1416
01:08:24,040 --> 01:08:25,719
Speaker 4: end line with his left foot, whips it in towards

1417
01:08:25,760 --> 01:08:28,400
Speaker 4: in his stick port. Rothrock takes a touch in a

1418
01:08:28,479 --> 01:08:31,280
Speaker 4: chance to shoot, just delayed stripe by rolled On takes

1419
01:08:31,320 --> 01:08:34,479
Speaker 4: a deflection, so corner kick came off the crossbar. Good

1420
01:08:34,560 --> 01:08:37,000
Speaker 4: play by the sounders from the left Rothrock had a

1421
01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:41,240
Speaker 4: chance just delayed. Eventually found rolled on top of the box. Strike, deflection,

1422
01:08:41,400 --> 01:08:42,000
Speaker 4: corner kick.

1423
01:08:41,880 --> 01:08:45,759
Speaker 22: Neil Neil, second block from Romerio going down on the carpet.

1424
01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:49,160
Speaker 22: Good block right there with Paul Rothrock shot. Paul gets

1425
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:52,120
Speaker 22: the ball back, lays off a very nice ball for Christian.

1426
01:08:52,720 --> 01:08:54,840
Speaker 22: It's a good strike on it again, deflection and then

1427
01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:56,600
Speaker 22: off the post. So we're getting close. We need to

1428
01:08:56,640 --> 01:08:57,200
Speaker 22: put one away.

1429
01:08:57,720 --> 01:09:00,200
Speaker 4: Yep, sliding challenge by Duggan as he can, and it

1430
01:09:00,240 --> 01:09:01,760
Speaker 4: was dug and gone up on his feet and made

1431
01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:04,599
Speaker 4: the second block and challenge. Great play by the young defender.

1432
01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:08,840
Speaker 4: Calendar was beaten for sure. Deflection took it over the top.

1433
01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:10,479
Speaker 4: Now it's going to be a cornicate from the Sounders

1434
01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:14,240
Speaker 4: right with whereasneck goes top of the box, short strike

1435
01:09:14,479 --> 01:09:17,280
Speaker 4: like Petkevich and it's over the top. It was well worked.

1436
01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:20,000
Speaker 4: As you mentioned. RICARDA. Clark said a couple of tricks

1437
01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:22,000
Speaker 4: up his sleeve. That was one of him. It was

1438
01:09:22,040 --> 01:09:24,479
Speaker 4: a low ball to the top of the eighteen yard box.

1439
01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:27,679
Speaker 4: Petkovich was wide open, couldn't hit the target, goes over goalkick.

1440
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:30,439
Speaker 22: Yeah, you want that one back for sure. Didn't take

1441
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:33,080
Speaker 22: a hop or just wrap your foot around it, try

1442
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:34,040
Speaker 22: to go to the far post.

1443
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:35,719
Speaker 23: Certainly keep it on frame.

1444
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,080
Speaker 22: That's the second one we've seen now that they're short

1445
01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:40,800
Speaker 22: corner kick a moment ago with good combination play, so

1446
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:42,760
Speaker 22: getting closer, but we need to put something in the

1447
01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:43,040
Speaker 22: back of.

1448
01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:46,599
Speaker 4: The net timers. Rodriguez, the one hundred and twenty two

1449
01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:50,560
Speaker 4: CapMan from Columbia. Of course it was a signing just

1450
01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:54,360
Speaker 4: in the off season. Some surprise that Rodriguez made his

1451
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:57,560
Speaker 4: way to the cold confines in Minnesota. That's rolled on,

1452
01:09:57,680 --> 01:09:59,920
Speaker 4: giving it away and it forced Jack's Areagan to come

1453
01:10:00,040 --> 01:10:02,960
Speaker 4: across the little shoulder into Perea. We'll loose on the

1454
01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:06,200
Speaker 4: pass firm rolled on where he can clean things up,

1455
01:10:06,280 --> 01:10:07,880
Speaker 4: knocks it out of bounce, throw it in quickly now

1456
01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:10,880
Speaker 4: by Duncan and Minnesota have it. So back to Rodriguez.

1457
01:10:11,280 --> 01:10:14,160
Speaker 4: Monaco got his start, and Monaco broke out the twenty

1458
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:17,880
Speaker 4: fourteen World Cup for Columbia. Course that brilliant goalie score

1459
01:10:17,920 --> 01:10:19,679
Speaker 4: that clattered off the cross bath and I was twenty

1460
01:10:19,720 --> 01:10:22,639
Speaker 4: fourteen and made his move there after to Real Madrid,

1461
01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:27,679
Speaker 4: played for by Munich at Everton Olympia coss most recently

1462
01:10:27,680 --> 01:10:31,320
Speaker 4: with Lyon there's no short term contract through the summer

1463
01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:34,479
Speaker 4: getting himself prepared for the World Cup, and we'll see

1464
01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:36,680
Speaker 4: what the thirty four year old will do thereafter, if

1465
01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:41,360
Speaker 4: he will return to Minnesota, or he'll have some Pasta's

1466
01:10:41,400 --> 01:10:45,280
Speaker 4: green somewhere else. Sure he didn't sign up for this one.

1467
01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:50,200
Speaker 4: He sub forty degree weather. I'm sure he's got his

1468
01:10:50,880 --> 01:10:53,360
Speaker 4: thermals on underneath. But they come Minnesota on the Ryan

1469
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:55,960
Speaker 4: Soo with Diaz just clips it forward, tries to evade

1470
01:10:55,960 --> 01:10:58,559
Speaker 4: the midfield line. He does it, plays Gioboa picked up

1471
01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:02,880
Speaker 4: now by sharkily down the inside right position. Ball it's

1472
01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:04,280
Speaker 4: in top of the box to your bowl. Brings it

1473
01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:05,240
Speaker 4: down strip by prayer.

1474
01:11:05,320 --> 01:11:05,680
Speaker 2: No it's not.

1475
01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:09,720
Speaker 4: It's into your boa, just wide. Good play by Minnesota

1476
01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:12,160
Speaker 4: again on the counter attack it with a DS ball

1477
01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:15,639
Speaker 4: that played it forward to your boa on the halfway line.

1478
01:11:15,680 --> 01:11:18,760
Speaker 4: If Adia the Sounders midfield and quickly out the gates

1479
01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:21,240
Speaker 4: came Minnesot's it down the right hand side, eventually found

1480
01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:23,360
Speaker 4: you Bo inside the eighteen yard box, drags it wide.

1481
01:11:23,360 --> 01:11:27,599
Speaker 23: Goal kick Neil nil, Yeah, terrific ball in your boat.

1482
01:11:28,320 --> 01:11:30,680
Speaker 22: Not a great touch, but lays it off and has

1483
01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:34,080
Speaker 22: a good chance just outside the post, Andrew Thomas look

1484
01:11:34,160 --> 01:11:36,360
Speaker 22: to have it covered, but you know, Danny, this is gonna.

1485
01:11:36,120 --> 01:11:36,839
Speaker 23: Give him confidence.

1486
01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:39,280
Speaker 22: Thirty two minutes into the game, they've done well defensively,

1487
01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:41,400
Speaker 22: they block shots and now they've had a couple of

1488
01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:42,000
Speaker 22: good chances.

1489
01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:44,040

01:11:56,960 --> 01:12:00,720
Speaker 4: nine to fifty KJAR this afternoon. This SCOR update is

1494
01:12:00,760 --> 01:12:02,080
Speaker 4: presented by Toyota.

1495
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:05,360
Speaker 22: We hear the crowd getting into it now, they're starting

1496
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 22: to get a little confidence as well, probably freezing yep.

1497
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:12,280
Speaker 4: Just past the thirty minute mark, less than fifty minutes

1498
01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:14,439
Speaker 4: to go. This first half ball gets clipped over the

1499
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:16,880
Speaker 4: top to Georgie inside the eighteen yard box. Towards the end,

1500
01:12:16,920 --> 01:12:20,040
Speaker 4: ninety Goes tries to whip it him with his left foot,

1501
01:12:20,080 --> 01:12:22,160
Speaker 4: can't keep it in. It curls out and then back

1502
01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:25,840
Speaker 4: in and it's going to be a goalkick for Minnesota.

1503
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:29,080
Speaker 4: So rolled on on his travels again with the US

1504
01:12:29,120 --> 01:12:31,800
Speaker 4: men's national team as they start to kind of tying

1505
01:12:31,880 --> 01:12:35,560
Speaker 4: things up in terms of the squad decisions that Pochatino's

1506
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:37,560
Speaker 4: going to have to make. When do you make of

1507
01:12:37,680 --> 01:12:40,120
Speaker 4: rolled on his chances of getting into that squad. I

1508
01:12:40,200 --> 01:12:42,120
Speaker 4: feel like the performances he put in over the last

1509
01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:44,280
Speaker 4: twelve months has put himself in a really good spot.

1510
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:46,720
Speaker 4: Certainly performances for the Sounders last year as well.

1511
01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:48,439
Speaker 23: Yeah. Absolutely. And he's a glue guy too.

1512
01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:52,400
Speaker 22: He's a leader, he's disciplined, he's a good professional, and

1513
01:12:52,760 --> 01:12:54,760
Speaker 22: the players like him and the coaches like him, and

1514
01:12:54,840 --> 01:12:57,519
Speaker 22: he's one of those guys that it's captain for us, right,

1515
01:12:57,600 --> 01:12:59,639
Speaker 22: So when he comes on the field, he's a mouthpiece

1516
01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:02,160
Speaker 22: for the the coaches, and he's just and he's an

1517
01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:04,519
Speaker 22: engine and he's and he can also play a number

1518
01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:07,639
Speaker 22: of positions, right, He can handle assignments. If he needs

1519
01:13:07,680 --> 01:13:10,559
Speaker 22: to drop back and preserve a lead for the national team,

1520
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:12,679
Speaker 22: he can do that. So I think I think he's

1521
01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:15,200
Speaker 22: a shoe in in my opinion. And I think everything

1522
01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:18,920
Speaker 22: you see with Pocaccino talking about and I think he

1523
01:13:19,160 --> 01:13:20,360
Speaker 22: really likes him.

1524
01:13:20,400 --> 01:13:22,040
Speaker 23: He feels like he's his kind of player.

1525
01:13:21,880 --> 01:13:24,000
Speaker 4: Swiss army knife player as well complay in the middle

1526
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:25,360
Speaker 4: of the park, as he has done for the national

1527
01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:27,200
Speaker 4: team as he plays as the Sounders, but right back

1528
01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:30,880
Speaker 4: outside right attacking player as well. It is another long

1529
01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:32,760
Speaker 4: throw for Minnesota. This sound from the left and side

1530
01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:35,519
Speaker 4: with Duncan comes in flick by a Sounders player, headed

1531
01:13:35,560 --> 01:13:38,840
Speaker 4: away by Ozazi, ball bouncing around. It's heady clear by

1532
01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:43,040
Speaker 4: Knew who picked up by Treantis. Far side the left

1533
01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:45,320
Speaker 4: is Trapp He daily Dally's on the ball and then

1534
01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:48,120
Speaker 4: gives it away and it clips off roasneck on the

1535
01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:49,880
Speaker 4: far side, and it's going to be another throw. And

1536
01:13:49,960 --> 01:13:51,599
Speaker 4: it was Duncan who made his way from the right

1537
01:13:52,120 --> 01:13:54,120
Speaker 4: all the way to the left. As he mentioned Boxel,

1538
01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:58,240
Speaker 4: their captain, the New Zealand international, who's usually the player

1539
01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:00,320
Speaker 4: coming from that center back spot that launched ball in

1540
01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:05,080
Speaker 4: from long throws. He's out today. It's been our last

1541
01:14:05,680 --> 01:14:09,200
Speaker 4: game as well. But it is another long throw by Duncan,

1542
01:14:09,240 --> 01:14:12,519
Speaker 4: this time comes into the near side. Ball bounces around

1543
01:14:12,640 --> 01:14:16,000
Speaker 4: now and Kilaney just launches it long, takes the safety first,

1544
01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:18,439
Speaker 4: so just gonna let the ball go. For some reason,

1545
01:14:18,520 --> 01:14:21,120
Speaker 4: didn't go up and hit that ball. Ball hit the deck,

1546
01:14:21,200 --> 01:14:23,840
Speaker 4: but the Sounders did clear their lines. Thirty fifth minute here,

1547
01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 4: ten minutes to go. The forty five other than Alex

1548
01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:33,400
Speaker 4: Roldan's delay because of injury, no delays to speak of.

1549
01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:36,880
Speaker 4: As the ball goes down the line to Shanklay goes

1550
01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:40,600
Speaker 4: to the legs of roth Rock holds his position and

1551
01:14:40,720 --> 01:14:43,800
Speaker 4: the referee gets called. Actually was Kilaney who got caught

1552
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:47,000
Speaker 4: out on the deep on their right hand side, which

1553
01:14:47,040 --> 01:14:48,960
Speaker 4: went through his legs. They stood his ground and then

1554
01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:53,479
Speaker 4: a couple of flailing arms by Shunk Calay that eventually

1555
01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:53,920
Speaker 4: wins it.

1556
01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:57,560
Speaker 22: Yeah, smart play from him, get the free kick, and

1557
01:14:57,720 --> 01:15:01,080
Speaker 22: right now it's turned a little bit in Minnesota's favor.

1558
01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:03,400
Speaker 22: You know, this is a bit of a perfect storm,

1559
01:15:03,720 --> 01:15:07,120
Speaker 22: bad storm for the Sounders. Six nothing lost, two weeks

1560
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:09,920
Speaker 22: off right, might look past this game.

1561
01:15:10,120 --> 01:15:11,760
Speaker 23: They can't do it. They've got to make sure they

1562
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:12,320
Speaker 23: stay sharp.

1563
01:15:12,960 --> 01:15:17,080
Speaker 4: Minnesota's a very much the style and form that got

1564
01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:19,879
Speaker 4: them so much success last year. Thirty four percent possession.

1565
01:15:19,960 --> 01:15:21,960
Speaker 4: They don't care about that, as the Sounders haven't cared

1566
01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:24,519
Speaker 4: about getting low possession count over the last few weeks

1567
01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:27,439
Speaker 4: getting those wins. Minnesota just need to get back on

1568
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:29,599
Speaker 4: the winning trail here and there's a chance for them now.

1569
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:33,400
Speaker 4: And the Sounders hold their defensive line just inside the

1570
01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:35,880
Speaker 4: six yard Boss ball gets whipped into this sick Petkevich

1571
01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:38,720
Speaker 4: clears his line with an outstretched right foot, picked up

1572
01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:41,559
Speaker 4: again by Schunkley on the left hand side, he clips

1573
01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:43,720
Speaker 4: it in with his right foot, ball bounces across and

1574
01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:46,840
Speaker 4: then trickles over the end line on the far side.

1575
01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:49,639
Speaker 4: Andrew Thomas comfortable, just lets that ball go. It's gonna

1576
01:15:49,640 --> 01:15:51,080
Speaker 4: big goal kick for the sound as we head into

1577
01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:54,439
Speaker 4: the final ten minutes. So there's forty five Neil nil

1578
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:55,320
Speaker 4: p viewing.

1579
01:15:55,640 --> 01:15:57,920
Speaker 23: Well and Danny. This is a big one because right

1580
01:15:58,000 --> 01:15:59,559
Speaker 23: now we have a game in hand.

1581
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:03,599
Speaker 22: We're playing our fifth game in La Vancouver San Jose.

1582
01:16:03,720 --> 01:16:06,000
Speaker 22: They've all got five games under their belt. A win

1583
01:16:06,439 --> 01:16:08,760
Speaker 22: today gets us to twelve points, tied with San Jose

1584
01:16:09,320 --> 01:16:13,040
Speaker 22: and Vancouver, two teams that we've beaten this season already.

1585
01:16:13,080 --> 01:16:14,560
Speaker 22: So we want to stay top of the table. And

1586
01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:18,400
Speaker 22: what a great way to go into this international break.

1587
01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:20,880
Speaker 22: So Seattle's got to kind of ramp it up a

1588
01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:21,240
Speaker 22: little bit.

1589
01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:22,040
Speaker 23: We need some magic.

1590
01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:24,880
Speaker 4: Great ball by Petkovic down the left hand side. It's

1591
01:16:24,920 --> 01:16:29,160
Speaker 4: Georgia crossof fingertip saved by Calendar off the toe of

1592
01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:31,080
Speaker 4: a zaz was making a good run to the back

1593
01:16:31,160 --> 01:16:35,960
Speaker 4: stick brilliantly played by the Sounders. Petkovich sliced the back

1594
01:16:36,080 --> 01:16:38,439
Speaker 4: five open with a ball in behind, and it was

1595
01:16:38,520 --> 01:16:40,680
Speaker 4: Georgie put some real quality with that left foot, just

1596
01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:43,040
Speaker 4: guided along the six yard box and it was the

1597
01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:45,320
Speaker 4: fingertips of the minnesot A's a goalkeeper that took it

1598
01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:47,360
Speaker 4: off the toe of a Jase. But it come. The

1599
01:16:47,439 --> 01:16:50,040
Speaker 4: Sounder is now try to find an opener before the

1600
01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:54,559
Speaker 4: halftime break. Ten dark shirts behind the ball. Sounders our

1601
01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:56,320
Speaker 4: possession on the left hand side.

1602
01:16:56,920 --> 01:17:01,240
Speaker 22: I think that's the recipe, that quick ball out in

1603
01:17:01,400 --> 01:17:03,800
Speaker 22: behind for Georgie to run onto and then we've got

1604
01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:04,200
Speaker 22: to get to that.

1605
01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:06,000
Speaker 23: If we get to that near post downy I think we.

1606
01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:09,400
Speaker 4: Get a goal YEPS. A low man up front. Of course,

1607
01:17:09,760 --> 01:17:13,080
Speaker 4: trailing players is what the Sounders and Brian Schmitzer has

1608
01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:14,880
Speaker 4: demanded from his team for the last couple of years.

1609
01:17:14,920 --> 01:17:16,760
Speaker 4: Can we get four players into the box? Has been

1610
01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:19,920
Speaker 4: the marker for Brian as has fifty five percent possession,

1611
01:17:19,960 --> 01:17:22,840
Speaker 4: So we're hitting that marker already today. The ball gets

1612
01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:24,760
Speaker 4: flipped up in the air by Triants, hook clear by

1613
01:17:24,840 --> 01:17:26,599
Speaker 4: dug and brought down by pere A li Orle touched

1614
01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:30,559
Speaker 4: a Duncan on this near side Minnesota's right clip forward

1615
01:17:30,840 --> 01:17:32,800
Speaker 4: by Minnesota, ball bounced in the middle of the box,

1616
01:17:32,920 --> 01:17:36,040
Speaker 4: challenged by Lopez, wins the ball, I think, But there's

1617
01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:38,120
Speaker 4: a Minnesota play on the ground, the referees letting the

1618
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,439
Speaker 4: advantage go. Petkeovich brings him down. Might be a double

1619
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:43,800
Speaker 4: yellow card for the Sounders. There's one and there's two.

1620
01:17:44,040 --> 01:17:47,960
Speaker 4: So in the matter of twenty seconds, Lopez and Petkevich

1621
01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:52,360
Speaker 4: get yellow cards. Smart play probably by Petkovich in the

1622
01:17:52,400 --> 01:17:53,720
Speaker 4: middle of the park to bring him down. But it

1623
01:17:53,840 --> 01:17:55,920
Speaker 4: was a clattering challenge by Lopez. And once in a

1624
01:17:56,000 --> 01:17:58,479
Speaker 4: while in those areas of the field inside you're attacking

1625
01:17:58,520 --> 01:17:59,800
Speaker 4: half of the field, why not, Kim.

1626
01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,600
Speaker 22: He loved to go and hammer somebody in there on

1627
01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:06,360
Speaker 22: the defensive half, right, Yeah, And so Lopez and we're

1628
01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:09,200
Speaker 22: looking at the replay right now, and you got the ball. Uh,

1629
01:18:09,760 --> 01:18:13,760
Speaker 22: just a big body coming through. Well, you think you're

1630
01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:15,519
Speaker 22: a you're a defender. What do you think of that tackle?

1631
01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:18,160
Speaker 4: Clean tackle? I would say my day was just to

1632
01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:20,040
Speaker 4: get up and get on with it. That's a.

1633
01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:25,880
Speaker 23: Terrible tackle. Be disappointed with that, Yeah, he said, that's.

1634
01:18:25,760 --> 01:18:26,320
Speaker 4: A soft tackle.

1635
01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:27,559
Speaker 23: That's right, all right?

01:18:41,680 --> 01:18:44,240
Speaker 4: headed up in the air by Petkovitch, challenged by the Sounds.

1642
01:18:44,280 --> 01:18:47,559
Speaker 4: Now Minnesota ball bouncing around inside the six big body

1643
01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:49,920
Speaker 4: of Rimeira back yield by Marketing She fans Romyra looked

1644
01:18:49,960 --> 01:18:52,160
Speaker 4: like he offside. Sounds are asking for it, and they

1645
01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:54,160
Speaker 4: get the call, and it's going to be a free

1646
01:18:54,240 --> 01:18:56,519
Speaker 4: kick inside the six yard box. And Andrew Thomas is

1647
01:18:56,520 --> 01:18:58,879
Speaker 4: going to get this going quickly launches it forward to Georgia.

1648
01:18:59,120 --> 01:19:01,880
Speaker 4: Great bore by Andrew. That is an area that the

1649
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:05,880
Speaker 4: Sounders have added in terms of distribution from the deck

1650
01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:09,200
Speaker 4: from Andrew Thomas. It comes Georgia. Ah week foul. I'll

1651
01:19:09,240 --> 01:19:11,880
Speaker 4: say it should be a neutral, but I'm not. There's

1652
01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:14,560
Speaker 4: a foul. That call on Georgie looked like it was

1653
01:19:14,560 --> 01:19:17,479
Speaker 4: a tangling of legs inside just inside the Sounders defensive

1654
01:19:17,479 --> 01:19:19,360
Speaker 4: half of the field. The referee called it's free kick

1655
01:19:19,439 --> 01:19:20,120
Speaker 4: for Minnesota.

1656
01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:22,400
Speaker 23: Yeah, and then he's on the run.

1657
01:19:22,800 --> 01:19:24,560
Speaker 22: If he gets there's no call there, he's on his

1658
01:19:24,640 --> 01:19:27,320
Speaker 22: way to the goal. So it's unfortunate for Seattle.

1659
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:32,960
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a free kick just inside Minnesota's half

1660
01:19:33,080 --> 01:19:36,960
Speaker 4: the field. But his prayer, the facto number ten, the playmaker,

1661
01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:38,760
Speaker 4: is going to take it. So you get all the

1662
01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:42,920
Speaker 4: big men up Diaz, Duggan, you borrow the number nine's

1663
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:45,880
Speaker 4: up there, Romero now making his move. Triantes is a

1664
01:19:45,920 --> 01:19:48,000
Speaker 4: big player in the midfield up there, holding the top

1665
01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:50,120
Speaker 4: of the eighteen yard box, gets floated into the air

1666
01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:54,240
Speaker 4: towards the backstick, challenged by Azaz. Jase runs away, saying

1667
01:19:54,280 --> 01:19:56,559
Speaker 4: it was a came off of Minnesota head. It did

1668
01:19:56,640 --> 01:19:58,120
Speaker 4: off Diaz and it goes over the end line. It's

1669
01:19:58,160 --> 01:19:59,439
Speaker 4: gonna be a goal kick. As we get here. In

1670
01:19:59,439 --> 01:20:03,040
Speaker 4: the final five minutes of this first half, there bean

1671
01:20:03,160 --> 01:20:06,720
Speaker 4: chances on both ends, Minnesota relying on the counter and

1672
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:09,000
Speaker 4: set pieces. Sound is from open play and it's been

1673
01:20:09,040 --> 01:20:12,160
Speaker 4: a couple of chances, but it is no nail. When

1674
01:20:12,160 --> 01:20:15,000
Speaker 4: this score of day is presented by Provident Swedish.

1675
01:20:15,360 --> 01:20:17,880
Speaker 22: We just saw the replay of Georgie's ball in behind

1676
01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:21,439
Speaker 22: and the cross boy if Ozase can make a run

1677
01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:23,280
Speaker 22: straight across the middle of the field. We got a

1678
01:20:23,520 --> 01:20:25,519
Speaker 22: chance of sitting right here. It scored a lot of

1679
01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:27,280
Speaker 22: goals getting to that near post. You just got to

1680
01:20:27,320 --> 01:20:29,479
Speaker 22: put your head down believe that it's going to get there.

1681
01:20:29,479 --> 01:20:31,880
Speaker 22: It was very good ball from Georgie. So that'll be

1682
01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:34,680
Speaker 22: brought up at halftime, I'm sure. But Minnesota looks very

1683
01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:37,479
Speaker 22: dangerous when they're inside our box. They are getting numbers

1684
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:39,920
Speaker 22: forward and when they go they go with purpose.

1685
01:20:40,120 --> 01:20:44,840
Speaker 4: Yep, your ba one goal in his season already. There's

1686
01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:49,920
Speaker 4: an Italian youth international as you mentioned, Tony Yeboa's family relative,

1687
01:20:50,640 --> 01:20:53,320
Speaker 4: so there's got some good jeans there as well. Signed

1688
01:20:53,360 --> 01:20:57,000
Speaker 4: from Genoa and his deputy was against the sound is well,

1689
01:20:57,000 --> 01:21:01,400
Speaker 4: you got some goals. We'll see when Rodriguez will get

1690
01:21:01,479 --> 01:21:06,240
Speaker 4: his introduction to proceedings. He got first minutes last week.

1691
01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:08,000
Speaker 4: Probably not the game he wanted to come on when

1692
01:21:08,560 --> 01:21:11,160
Speaker 4: I lost six nail against Vancouver in a really tough

1693
01:21:11,320 --> 01:21:16,439
Speaker 4: field and tough environment in Vancouver. They'll lay grass shortly

1694
01:21:16,600 --> 01:21:19,360
Speaker 4: for that for that walk cup. But here comes Pray

1695
01:21:19,479 --> 01:21:21,240
Speaker 4: now with his right foot, he cuts it back, tries

1696
01:21:21,240 --> 01:21:22,800
Speaker 4: to chop it back to his third left foot, and

1697
01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:25,240
Speaker 4: it goes to Triante's who flips it around the corner,

1698
01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:28,160
Speaker 4: cleared well by Jackson Reagan, who's been in the right

1699
01:21:28,200 --> 01:21:30,920
Speaker 4: place at the right time all season from clearances both

1700
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:33,719
Speaker 4: on the deck and in the air. It's really starting

1701
01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:38,160
Speaker 4: to figure out his size and his abilities arely especially

1702
01:21:38,280 --> 01:21:40,880
Speaker 4: as Rodin cleans things up, Treantes blocks the ball out

1703
01:21:40,960 --> 01:21:43,080
Speaker 4: on this near side. There's going to be a thrown

1704
01:21:43,120 --> 01:21:46,040
Speaker 4: for the Sounders with knew who Well, wherever you headed,

1705
01:21:46,120 --> 01:21:48,320
Speaker 4: Discount Tire wants to get you there safely. Shot for

1706
01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:52,280
Speaker 4: tires with tread Well your personal tire guide at Discount

1707
01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:57,600
Speaker 4: Tire dot com Nil nil Minnesota Sounders on this Sunday afternoon.

1708
01:21:59,040 --> 01:22:03,679
Speaker 4: Sounders have new week break now until their next MLS game,

1709
01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:07,559
Speaker 4: and that's Houston on April fourth, on the road once again.

1710
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:12,559
Speaker 4: That'll be the seventh game in a row, and then

1711
01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:15,840
Speaker 4: they'll be on the road again for their eighth down

1712
01:22:15,920 --> 01:22:19,559
Speaker 4: to Mexico before playing Teagress in that quarter final first

1713
01:22:19,680 --> 01:22:22,599
Speaker 4: leg before coming back to play RSL for the first

1714
01:22:22,680 --> 01:22:26,360
Speaker 4: time at Luminfield on the new grass surface that's going down.

1715
01:22:27,560 --> 01:22:31,519
Speaker 4: The FIFA had to approve certain windows in certain games

1716
01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:34,679
Speaker 4: because they are of course trying to nurture that field

1717
01:22:34,720 --> 01:22:36,559
Speaker 4: to make it the very best playing condition they can.

1718
01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:38,360
Speaker 4: And it's been a good twelve to fourteen inches of

1719
01:22:38,439 --> 01:22:42,040
Speaker 4: dirt laid on top of the surface at lumin Field,

1720
01:22:42,120 --> 01:22:46,960
Speaker 4: so very much akin to a normal grass field, albeit

1721
01:22:47,160 --> 01:22:49,519
Speaker 4: sitting on top of the old turf field. And that's

1722
01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 4: Rothrock getting sandwich between Trap and Shankila as he holds

1723
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:56,439
Speaker 4: his top of his leg. That's not a player you

1724
01:22:56,479 --> 01:22:58,120
Speaker 4: want to lose in any way, shape or form. But

1725
01:22:58,840 --> 01:23:00,800
Speaker 4: it's gonna just burn. Not for a couple of more

1726
01:23:00,840 --> 01:23:02,400
Speaker 4: seconds we get in the final two and a half

1727
01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:05,280
Speaker 4: minutes of the forty five and whatever the referee adds on.

1728
01:23:05,439 --> 01:23:08,120
Speaker 4: But a chance for the sound is now to maybe

1729
01:23:08,920 --> 01:23:10,920
Speaker 4: dump the ball into the eighteen yard box. You do

1730
01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:14,560
Speaker 4: have the big body of Jackson Reagan now Pete, but

1731
01:23:14,920 --> 01:23:17,400
Speaker 4: knowing what the Sounders like to do versus maybe what

1732
01:23:17,479 --> 01:23:19,479
Speaker 4: Minnesota's tactics are, they'll try and put the ball in

1733
01:23:19,520 --> 01:23:20,160
Speaker 4: the deck and build.

1734
01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:24,760
Speaker 22: Yeah, Paul Ratherrock took him knee right to the hamstring

1735
01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:27,200
Speaker 22: or a little higher maybe, and you're right, let's get

1736
01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:30,240
Speaker 22: that ball inside the box. We really not tested channeler

1737
01:23:30,240 --> 01:23:34,120
Speaker 22: of the goalkeeper too much, so put him under some pressure, so.

1738
01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:35,960
Speaker 4: We sounded just free kick on the far side. The

1739
01:23:36,040 --> 01:23:39,599
Speaker 4: sound is right, and they do build now with Jackson

1740
01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:43,439
Speaker 4: Reagan Lopez out to his right left inside the center

1741
01:23:43,439 --> 01:23:46,439
Speaker 4: of the park, just inside the defensive half. The field

1742
01:23:46,560 --> 01:23:48,439
Speaker 4: is new. Who now founds Rosneck. It's been a little

1743
01:23:48,479 --> 01:23:52,120
Speaker 4: quiet so far as Rosneka comes deep. You always know

1744
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:54,080
Speaker 4: when a playmaker is a little quiet in the game.

1745
01:23:54,080 --> 01:23:56,080
Speaker 4: And it comes so deep to try and find the ball,

1746
01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:59,479
Speaker 4: and all goes all the way back, nothing forwards to

1747
01:23:59,560 --> 01:24:00,120
Speaker 4: be there.

1748
01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:03,200
Speaker 23: Pretty mind. Tero used to Yeah, when you see him

1749
01:24:03,439 --> 01:24:04,600
Speaker 23: in your defensive.

1750
01:24:04,240 --> 01:24:06,479
Speaker 4: Pharaoh would do the same thing. A cousemost here Number

1751
01:24:06,520 --> 01:24:09,040
Speaker 4: ten is messy included like to find the ball, just

1752
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:10,000
Speaker 4: get some rhythm.

1753
01:24:09,880 --> 01:24:12,280
Speaker 23: Yep, and you want him on the ball for sure.

1754
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:14,720
Speaker 22: He's not been able to get slip any balls in

1755
01:24:14,840 --> 01:24:17,400
Speaker 22: from the edge of the box or twenty five yards out,

1756
01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:19,320
Speaker 22: so that we've got to find pockets of space that

1757
01:24:20,439 --> 01:24:21,439
Speaker 22: Ladero can expose.

1758
01:24:21,800 --> 01:24:24,800
Speaker 4: Well, don't leave us a half time, but Jackson felt

1759
01:24:24,840 --> 01:24:30,920
Speaker 4: to be chance. Fry, the new grandfather, honors us with

1760
01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:34,880
Speaker 4: his presence today after his son and daughters in law

1761
01:24:35,280 --> 01:24:37,520
Speaker 4: had their first baby, his first grandchild.

1762
01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:40,320
Speaker 23: I think it's baby Peter, is what they're going to

1763
01:24:40,400 --> 01:24:40,600
Speaker 23: call it?

1764
01:24:40,680 --> 01:24:43,200
Speaker 4: Is that right? Yeah? I'm hoping Daniel I thought was it,

1765
01:24:43,360 --> 01:24:48,960
Speaker 4: But it's Ramera on the deck just holding his eye.

1766
01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:51,280
Speaker 23: An il deal, al deal.

1767
01:24:52,479 --> 01:24:54,719
Speaker 4: You're giving it to a for clu. Is that what's happening?

1768
01:24:54,840 --> 01:24:56,920
Speaker 4: Is that how it works? There no holds bar to

1769
01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:01,080
Speaker 4: give it to a newborn to set himself up.

1770
01:25:01,880 --> 01:25:05,640
Speaker 23: I have known athletic parents that I have offered scholarships

1771
01:25:05,680 --> 01:25:06,799
Speaker 23: to at the birth of their children.

1772
01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:11,639
Speaker 4: So our grandchildren. Yeah, when it comes Minnesota, Now another

1773
01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:13,519
Speaker 4: chance for a free kick. We passed the forty five

1774
01:25:13,600 --> 01:25:16,680
Speaker 4: minute mark and it was a free kick given on

1775
01:25:17,000 --> 01:25:20,479
Speaker 4: Ozaze for a finger in the eye of Ramera. Doesn't

1776
01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:22,560
Speaker 4: go in this time four minutes of added time on

1777
01:25:22,720 --> 01:25:26,200
Speaker 4: top of the forty five that we've already played. Of course,

1778
01:25:26,280 --> 01:25:28,760
Speaker 4: the new rule in MLS last year was that that

1779
01:25:29,200 --> 01:25:31,280
Speaker 4: four minutes of added time will be put on the

1780
01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:33,840
Speaker 4: board and it will be a running clock. Ball's launched forward,

1781
01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:36,000
Speaker 4: good ball by Pereier into the left channel over the

1782
01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:38,639
Speaker 4: top of new who is he chased it down, goes

1783
01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:41,360
Speaker 4: down from the assistant referee tries to win the foul

1784
01:25:41,479 --> 01:25:45,519
Speaker 4: not given by the assistant referee Shankleer give the thumbs

1785
01:25:45,600 --> 01:25:48,439
Speaker 4: up to uh Praier for that ball over the top

1786
01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:51,439
Speaker 4: that just turned the Sounders back line. Now it's gonna

1787
01:25:51,439 --> 01:25:55,240
Speaker 4: be another long throw, inevitably from Duncan. The new Man

1788
01:25:55,320 --> 01:25:58,479
Speaker 4: goes short, this time to triantees back to Duncan, challenged

1789
01:25:58,520 --> 01:26:01,160
Speaker 4: by new who ball goes into the near corner of

1790
01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:03,960
Speaker 4: the six, clipped away by Petkovich, headed back in by

1791
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:07,200
Speaker 4: Minnesota to flip forward by dug and hooked in the

1792
01:26:07,240 --> 01:26:11,120
Speaker 4: air by Roldan not convincingly, but headed forward by Nuho.

1793
01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:14,000
Speaker 4: Georgie has it? Can he maybe find a free kick

1794
01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:16,479
Speaker 4: Someway doesn't he lose his possession. Triantes has it. Look

1795
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:20,280
Speaker 4: ball to Perea Lott step over, ball whipped him by

1796
01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:22,400
Speaker 4: his weaker right foot. Good ball though to the backstick,

1797
01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:27,280
Speaker 4: headed clear by the Sounders, challenged up by Petkovich, collected

1798
01:26:27,320 --> 01:26:30,599
Speaker 4: by Reagan in towards Azaz ball over the topna Can

1799
01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:33,400
Speaker 4: Azarzi use that athletics as a ball bounty? Doesn't judge

1800
01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:36,720
Speaker 4: it well and it's been another poor forty five, I

1801
01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:39,000
Speaker 4: would say for Azarzi, not involved in the game whatsoever.

1802
01:26:39,120 --> 01:26:40,880
Speaker 4: Made a couple of decent runs hasn't found the end

1803
01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:45,479
Speaker 4: product yet, still looking for that first goal this season

1804
01:26:46,520 --> 01:26:49,280
Speaker 4: as a Sounders collected and we'll start to build again

1805
01:26:49,360 --> 01:26:52,639
Speaker 4: as we just get ticking towards the forty seven minute mark,

1806
01:26:52,680 --> 01:26:56,000
Speaker 4: two minutes remaining of the four minutes of added time.

1807
01:26:57,720 --> 01:26:59,920
Speaker 4: The Sounders of course to a quick two nil lee

1808
01:27:00,360 --> 01:27:02,680
Speaker 4: in Minnesota in the playoffs and then it was three

1809
01:27:02,760 --> 01:27:05,800
Speaker 4: unanswered by Minnesota that turned that game upside down. And

1810
01:27:05,840 --> 01:27:08,000
Speaker 4: then it was Jordan Morris who is on the bench

1811
01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:11,080
Speaker 4: today available to Brian Schmitze. We'll see if Jordan does

1812
01:27:11,160 --> 01:27:14,640
Speaker 4: get on and we'll see if what position he'll play. No,

1813
01:27:15,120 --> 01:27:20,439
Speaker 4: Danny Massovski today got his goal in midweek and then

1814
01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:23,960
Speaker 4: off he went to international duties. The congratulations to Dani

1815
01:27:23,960 --> 01:27:26,320
Speaker 4: Massosi getting called up by Northern Macedonia. They play in

1816
01:27:26,360 --> 01:27:29,800
Speaker 4: a World Cup qualifier. Sixteen teams in Europe will be

1817
01:27:29,880 --> 01:27:34,840
Speaker 4: playing for the final four spots and the winner of

1818
01:27:34,960 --> 01:27:37,240
Speaker 4: their game against Denmark will play the winner of the

1819
01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:40,639
Speaker 4: Republic of Ireland against the Czech Republic. So a chance

1820
01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:44,880
Speaker 4: for Danny Massovti to play in the World Cup, wouldn't

1821
01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:47,080
Speaker 4: that be something? It comes to your boa now. Good

1822
01:27:47,120 --> 01:27:50,000
Speaker 4: play by Jacks o' reagan just holds his ground and

1823
01:27:50,160 --> 01:27:52,920
Speaker 4: it's Petkevich and the sliding peree who comes flying in

1824
01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:56,680
Speaker 4: clean challenge ball goes over the near sideline for a

1825
01:27:56,800 --> 01:27:59,840
Speaker 4: Sounders throw. Get here in the final minute of the

1826
01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:00,559
Speaker 4: first half.

1827
01:28:00,640 --> 01:28:03,160
Speaker 22: Peat you know, as AAA you're talking about, he hasn't

1828
01:28:03,200 --> 01:28:05,840
Speaker 22: quite synced up yet, He's not quite found that rhythm.

1829
01:28:06,120 --> 01:28:09,240
Speaker 22: Danny Mazowski makes that run to the near post, gets

1830
01:28:09,240 --> 01:28:10,000
Speaker 22: a little topoke.

1831
01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:11,599
Speaker 23: That's all you have to do is a forwarding.

1832
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:13,200
Speaker 22: You just gotta make sure you put yourself in the

1833
01:28:13,280 --> 01:28:15,519
Speaker 22: right spot at the right time, and you only really

1834
01:28:15,560 --> 01:28:16,920
Speaker 22: have to do it one or two times in a

1835
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:20,599
Speaker 22: game to keep those goals going in. So I'm sure

1836
01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:23,080
Speaker 22: Precky will get after him a little bit at halftime

1837
01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:24,760
Speaker 22: and say, look, if you're gonna get in that spot,

1838
01:28:24,800 --> 01:28:26,639
Speaker 22: you've got to you've got to get to that near post.

1839
01:28:26,840 --> 01:28:29,000
Speaker 23: Make it make it easy, make it predictable, and make

1840
01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:29,799
Speaker 23: it easy on yourself.

1841
01:28:29,880 --> 01:28:31,519
Speaker 4: Yeah, some of the stats in this first half kind

1842
01:28:31,560 --> 01:28:33,360
Speaker 4: of dictates the way the game has gone. Sixty six

1843
01:28:33,400 --> 01:28:37,160
Speaker 4: possessions percent possession for the Sounders, five shots for the

1844
01:28:37,240 --> 01:28:41,880
Speaker 4: Sounders against Minnesota's one, but no shots on target. Four

1845
01:28:41,960 --> 01:28:45,280
Speaker 4: corner kicks for the Sounders haven't managed to take advantage yet.

1846
01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:49,439
Speaker 4: No corners four Minnesotas and Minnesotas are very much in

1847
01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:52,320
Speaker 4: the same kind of low block mode as last year.

1848
01:28:53,040 --> 01:28:55,439
Speaker 4: Whether they'll absorb pressure, and they have looked dangerous as

1849
01:28:55,479 --> 01:28:58,679
Speaker 4: we've talked about in the counter. And there's a ball.

1850
01:28:58,920 --> 01:29:03,080
Speaker 4: A touch by Petkovich is heavy and that gives Minnesota

1851
01:29:03,160 --> 01:29:04,920
Speaker 4: a chance on the break again, as we ticked towards

1852
01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:07,320
Speaker 4: the end of the four minutes run by Markinich, chunkily

1853
01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:09,840
Speaker 4: has it, clips it in, headed away by new not

1854
01:29:10,000 --> 01:29:12,599
Speaker 4: convincedly bort to the eighteen yard Bucks strike great saved

1855
01:29:12,600 --> 01:29:16,080
Speaker 4: by Andrew Thomas. Strike again, oh till a deflection goes wide.

1856
01:29:16,600 --> 01:29:19,960
Speaker 4: Corner kick four Minnesota. Who's a chance of the death

1857
01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:23,439
Speaker 4: of this first half? A Minnesota something the sound is

1858
01:29:23,479 --> 01:29:25,240
Speaker 4: need to clean up a little bit. Is this transitional

1859
01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:26,599
Speaker 4: play corner kick.

1860
01:29:28,640 --> 01:29:30,240
Speaker 23: Terrific? Say from Andrew Thomas.

1861
01:29:30,320 --> 01:29:33,000
Speaker 22: It comes through a lot of legs, Will laid Back

1862
01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:36,479
Speaker 22: gets his hand down to the ball and then a

1863
01:29:36,560 --> 01:29:39,240
Speaker 22: block from knew who to send it out for.

1864
01:29:39,280 --> 01:29:41,960
Speaker 23: A corner kick. So good resolve from the defense.

1865
01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:44,200
Speaker 22: But I'm sure Brian Spenzer does not want to give

1866
01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:45,439
Speaker 22: Minnesota these kind of oppertunity.

1867
01:29:45,439 --> 01:29:46,599
Speaker 4: I think it was a one two punch as we've

1868
01:29:46,600 --> 01:29:48,000
Speaker 4: seen in the last couple of weeks, who was a

1869
01:29:48,040 --> 01:29:50,680
Speaker 4: safe by Andrew Thomas. Scarves are waving for this corner kick.

1870
01:29:50,760 --> 01:29:52,960
Speaker 4: Last player the first off, I'm sure ball comes in,

1871
01:29:53,240 --> 01:29:56,280
Speaker 4: I'm off the line. Ball bounces around and it's a

1872
01:29:56,479 --> 01:29:58,680
Speaker 4: free kick. Potentially look like it may have been in

1873
01:29:58,680 --> 01:30:00,920
Speaker 4: a hand pull, but he the free kick was given

1874
01:30:01,000 --> 01:30:03,720
Speaker 4: by the referee Andrew Thomas in a bit of a

1875
01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:06,920
Speaker 4: mess of the punch, maybe as a foul on Andrew Thomas.

1876
01:30:06,960 --> 01:30:11,640
Speaker 4: At the referees calling we won't see and it's a

1877
01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:15,320
Speaker 4: fowl and Thomas is having a word and Thomas didn't

1878
01:30:15,320 --> 01:30:16,880
Speaker 4: make it. The ball can I get skipped through the six?

1879
01:30:16,920 --> 01:30:18,800
Speaker 4: We'll see a replay now on our screen. Ball gets

1880
01:30:18,800 --> 01:30:22,080
Speaker 4: whipped in and it's a little push by Triantis. I

1881
01:30:22,200 --> 01:30:24,280
Speaker 4: think it may be in a handball by Kilane, so

1882
01:30:24,960 --> 01:30:26,760
Speaker 4: it's good that there was a foul. It definitely was

1883
01:30:26,840 --> 01:30:29,240
Speaker 4: a foul as a push by Triantis. Yeah, easy as

1884
01:30:29,360 --> 01:30:32,040
Speaker 4: he was off the thigh of Kilane. Brilliant play by

1885
01:30:32,439 --> 01:30:35,840
Speaker 4: the Sounders right back right off the goal line, and

1886
01:30:36,280 --> 01:30:38,080
Speaker 4: I think the Sounders will get this free kick in

1887
01:30:39,240 --> 01:30:44,280
Speaker 4: and then the referee will blow. But Minnesota have shown

1888
01:30:44,320 --> 01:30:48,439
Speaker 4: themselves to be dangerous from transition play and dangerous from

1889
01:30:49,840 --> 01:30:52,120
Speaker 4: set pieces, and there's the referees. We're sort of be

1890
01:30:52,160 --> 01:30:54,200
Speaker 4: in this first half to a close, so not much

1891
01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:56,320
Speaker 4: to speak about. A couple of chances on the Sounder's

1892
01:30:56,360 --> 01:30:59,200
Speaker 4: left hand side from Georgie one particular way, he got

1893
01:30:59,280 --> 01:31:00,880
Speaker 4: to the end line and cut it back along the

1894
01:31:00,920 --> 01:31:04,760
Speaker 4: six yard box and he wasn't to be Calendar got

1895
01:31:04,760 --> 01:31:06,720
Speaker 4: a fingertip to that, and then it was a shot

1896
01:31:06,760 --> 01:31:08,360
Speaker 4: deflected from the top of the box. He hit the

1897
01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:11,560
Speaker 4: crossbar as well. So a couple of half chances for

1898
01:31:11,600 --> 01:31:12,719
Speaker 4: the sound there's nothing on target.

1899
01:31:12,760 --> 01:31:15,160
Speaker 22: Pete Fewing your final thoughts, well, I think Cameron Knowles

1900
01:31:15,160 --> 01:31:17,160
Speaker 22: will be very happy. I think the players will gain

1901
01:31:17,240 --> 01:31:19,280
Speaker 22: some confidence from the first half from Minnesota.

1902
01:31:19,560 --> 01:31:21,400
Speaker 23: I think Brian Schmetzer might be happy to be at

1903
01:31:21,479 --> 01:31:22,080
Speaker 23: Zero's right.

1904
01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:23,840
Speaker 22: Now as far as the way the last couple of

1905
01:31:23,920 --> 01:31:26,360
Speaker 22: minutes went, so now it's a forty five minute game,

1906
01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:28,160
Speaker 22: they've got to go take care of business. They've got

1907
01:31:28,200 --> 01:31:30,280
Speaker 22: to sharpen things up. I think they'll show the video

1908
01:31:30,479 --> 01:31:34,640
Speaker 22: of the ball wide to Georgie that Nico played.

1909
01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:34,840
Speaker 4: To him early.

1910
01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:38,000
Speaker 22: Try to get more of that. So forty five minute

1911
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:39,439
Speaker 22: game and then they get a two week break. Let's

1912
01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:40,120
Speaker 22: take care of business.

1913
01:31:40,200 --> 01:31:40,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1914
01:31:40,400 --> 01:31:42,839
Speaker 4: Brian Schmidza mentioned that he made some tweaks at halftime

1915
01:31:42,880 --> 01:31:45,160
Speaker 4: against Vancouver that worked. We'll see what he has in

1916
01:31:45,280 --> 01:31:46,920
Speaker 4: store for us for this second half. We'll take a

1917
01:31:46,920 --> 01:31:49,320
Speaker 4: short break, Jackson and Chance. We'll be back to break

Speaker 3: We'll mention that Sounders FC Soccer is presented by Providence,

Speaker 3: Swedish official healthcare partner of Sounders FC. Also that Tonight's

01:34:45,760 --> 01:34:48,000
Speaker 3: match or see me today's match is presented by the

1972
01:34:48,080 --> 01:34:52,360
Speaker 3: Western Washington Toyota Dealers. All right, chance that forty five minutes,

1973
01:34:52,479 --> 01:34:55,960
Speaker 3: no score, a few very close chances, I think for

1974
01:34:56,120 --> 01:34:56,719
Speaker 3: both teams.

1975
01:34:56,760 --> 01:34:59,000
Speaker 2: What do you make of the first forty five Yeah.

1976
01:34:59,240 --> 01:35:02,599
Speaker 6: There were chances for both teams, but no need to panic.

1977
01:35:02,960 --> 01:35:05,599
Speaker 6: You know, we were talking about the Vancouver game before

1978
01:35:05,640 --> 01:35:08,320
Speaker 6: where they scored six goals. Three of those goals one

1979
01:35:08,479 --> 01:35:10,759
Speaker 6: was late in the second half, in the first half, sorry,

1980
01:35:10,960 --> 01:35:12,840
Speaker 6: and then two others late in the second half. So

1981
01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:16,000
Speaker 6: you know what, there's still plenty of time forty five minutes.

1982
01:35:16,080 --> 01:35:19,479
Speaker 6: But the one worrying thing is that Minnesota has been

1983
01:35:19,520 --> 01:35:22,000
Speaker 6: a little bit unorthodox, a little bit scrappy, but they've

1984
01:35:22,280 --> 01:35:25,680
Speaker 6: gotten chances, and right there at the end, as the

1985
01:35:25,720 --> 01:35:28,840
Speaker 6: guys said, they could have easily gone up one zero

1986
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:32,360
Speaker 6: and Schmeetz is probably pretty happy that it is zero

1987
01:35:32,479 --> 01:35:33,040
Speaker 6: zero right now.

1988
01:35:33,479 --> 01:35:36,639
Speaker 5: And you know, it was very uh, that was very close.

1989
01:35:36,800 --> 01:35:37,400
Speaker 2: And what we had.

1990
01:35:37,439 --> 01:35:39,160
Speaker 3: I think one of the big things to come out

1991
01:35:39,200 --> 01:35:42,280
Speaker 3: of that first half happened in the sixteenth minute when

1992
01:35:42,400 --> 01:35:46,719
Speaker 3: Alex Schroldon went down as Danny was mentioning on the broadcast,

1993
01:35:46,760 --> 01:35:50,439
Speaker 3: holding his right hip. He came back on the field.

1994
01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:53,280
Speaker 3: A few moments later, Christian Roldon filled in. His brother

1995
01:35:53,680 --> 01:35:56,120
Speaker 3: Alex comes back on the field and you look, okay,

1996
01:35:56,240 --> 01:35:57,640
Speaker 3: it's all good if we're going to be able to

1997
01:35:57,720 --> 01:35:59,680
Speaker 3: you know, and for the team right now where if

1998
01:35:59,720 --> 01:36:01,760
Speaker 3: you look the injury report for the Sounders right now

1999
01:36:01,840 --> 01:36:04,960
Speaker 3: and the amount of center backs out, Yea Margomez Andratt

2000
01:36:05,080 --> 01:36:06,920
Speaker 3: is out with a hamstring, Stuart Hawkins is out with

2001
01:36:06,960 --> 01:36:09,919
Speaker 3: a quad kinky, he's out with a calf. Ryan Sailor's

2002
01:36:09,960 --> 01:36:12,479
Speaker 3: out with a knee. And now Alex Troldon, who's been

2003
01:36:12,560 --> 01:36:15,160
Speaker 3: filling it center back from his rights back spot, he

2004
01:36:15,400 --> 01:36:18,280
Speaker 3: now is injured. To Jackson Reagan then came on the

2005
01:36:18,400 --> 01:36:21,880
Speaker 3: field in the twenty second minute for Alex and chance

2006
01:36:22,000 --> 01:36:24,639
Speaker 3: it's another center back injury for this team.

2007
01:36:24,960 --> 01:36:26,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's very unfortunate.

2008
01:36:26,720 --> 01:36:29,840
Speaker 6: Alex is a very important part of the back line

2009
01:36:30,640 --> 01:36:32,880
Speaker 6: and I don't think they wanted to bring in Jackson

2010
01:36:32,920 --> 01:36:35,960
Speaker 6: that early to how many minutes, but it's happened, and

2011
01:36:36,200 --> 01:36:36,920
Speaker 6: he's doing.

2012
01:36:36,800 --> 01:36:39,880
Speaker 5: Great so far. He's looking good, so hopefully he'll be fine.

2013
01:36:40,760 --> 01:36:42,800
Speaker 5: You know, there's we're gonna be fine.

2014
01:36:43,240 --> 01:36:46,040
Speaker 6: I think the guys talked about getting the ball wide

2015
01:36:46,080 --> 01:36:48,920
Speaker 6: and getting you know, our attack going a little bit

2016
01:36:48,960 --> 01:36:50,559
Speaker 6: more quickly, and I think that that is the key

2017
01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:53,479
Speaker 6: to it. We had a couple of chances, but you

2018
01:36:53,560 --> 01:36:54,559
Speaker 6: know we need to get more of those.

2019
01:36:54,640 --> 01:36:56,519
Speaker 3: We'll take a break, we'll talk about more keys to

2020
01:36:56,560 --> 01:36:58,880
Speaker 3: the second half. It's a zero zero game between Seattle

2021

Speaker 3: Today it's a zero zero game. What are your keys

2084
01:40:42,040 --> 01:40:43,639
Speaker 3: to the Sounders getting three points today?

2085
01:40:43,960 --> 01:40:48,519
Speaker 6: Well, we need to attack more quickly. The service when

2086
01:40:48,560 --> 01:40:51,600
Speaker 6: we do needs to be better to uh Osaza. But

2087
01:40:51,840 --> 01:40:53,599
Speaker 6: prior to that, if it does come up to him,

2088
01:40:53,640 --> 01:40:55,320
Speaker 6: first he's got to hold the ball. He's lost the

2089
01:40:55,360 --> 01:40:57,559
Speaker 6: ball a couple of times and he's tried to make

2090
01:40:57,640 --> 01:41:01,000
Speaker 6: something happen, which I like, but sometimes just hold it,

2091
01:41:01,160 --> 01:41:03,320
Speaker 6: give it to other players, get yourself back in the box.

2092
01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:06,600
Speaker 6: And third, a clean sheet because at the end of

2093
01:41:06,640 --> 01:41:09,679
Speaker 6: the day, a point is better than zero, right, don't

2094
01:41:09,720 --> 01:41:12,599
Speaker 6: give up anything silly just because you're trying to get forward. Right,

2095
01:41:12,960 --> 01:41:15,439
Speaker 6: you want to keep a clean sheet first and foremost

2096
01:41:15,960 --> 01:41:16,479
Speaker 6: out of all that.

2097
01:41:16,840 --> 01:41:19,360
Speaker 3: Well, Minnesota's back to their countering ways. It's sort of

2098
01:41:19,439 --> 01:41:21,960
Speaker 3: like their new head coach, Cameron Knowles after Eric Lela

2099
01:41:22,000 --> 01:41:22,759
Speaker 3: Ramsey left.

2100
01:41:22,920 --> 01:41:23,719
Speaker 2: Changed the system.

2101
01:41:23,960 --> 01:41:26,679
Speaker 3: He's gone back to that back three slash back five

2102
01:41:26,760 --> 01:41:29,080
Speaker 3: Systems said we're going to sit everybody behind the ball.

2103
01:41:29,240 --> 01:41:31,920
Speaker 2: We're going to count you and you know win that way.

2104
01:41:32,320 --> 01:41:35,000
Speaker 3: It's the old Eric Ramsey system and Cameron Knowles has

2105
01:41:35,120 --> 01:41:38,439
Speaker 3: tried to pretty much change up everything he's done wrong

2106
01:41:38,520 --> 01:41:40,760
Speaker 3: in the first four games and switch back. So we'll

2107
01:41:40,760 --> 01:41:43,360
Speaker 3: see what happens in the second half. It's Sounders zero

2108
01:41:43,479 --> 01:41:46,599
Speaker 3: Minnesota United zero. We know there's gonna be some subs.

2109
01:41:46,840 --> 01:41:48,880
Speaker 3: We'll see what Danny Jackson and Pete Fewing have to

2110
01:41:48,960 --> 01:41:51,879
Speaker 3: say when they jump back on as the Sounders Minnesota

2111
01:41:51,960 --> 01:41:54,400
Speaker 3: United kick things back off in the second half, and

2112
01:41:54,560 --> 01:41:56,720

01:45:02,680 --> 01:45:04,680
Speaker 1: Radio nine fifty KJR.

2169
01:45:05,760 --> 01:45:08,639
Speaker 4: Welcome back Sounders fans to alli Ancefield here in Saint Paul,

2170
01:45:08,720 --> 01:45:16,439
Speaker 4: Minnesota Sports Radio nine fIF am, early afternoon kickoff out here,

2171
01:45:16,800 --> 01:45:21,519
Speaker 4: Minnesota nil, Sounders nil. Going into the second half. There

2172
01:45:21,560 --> 01:45:25,040
Speaker 4: were some half chances of both teams going into that

2173
01:45:25,280 --> 01:45:27,839
Speaker 4: half time break. Sounders had a couple off the crossbar

2174
01:45:28,000 --> 01:45:30,800
Speaker 4: at a cross from Georgie that was trying to find

2175
01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:33,640
Speaker 4: Azaza inside the six, just nicked away by Calendar, the

2176
01:45:33,640 --> 01:45:36,560
Speaker 4: Minnesota goalkeeper. And then at the very end it was

2177
01:45:36,600 --> 01:45:39,240
Speaker 4: some scrambling around a great say by Andrew Thomas to

2178
01:45:39,400 --> 01:45:43,160
Speaker 4: preserve a clean sheet. So far, going into the halftime break,

2179
01:45:43,800 --> 01:45:47,799
Speaker 4: Andrew three clean sheets out of his first four starts

2180
01:45:47,840 --> 01:45:50,960
Speaker 4: as a starter here in MLS for the Sounders, so

2181
01:45:51,080 --> 01:45:53,200
Speaker 4: it's been a really good start for Andrew and his

2182
01:45:53,479 --> 01:45:58,200
Speaker 4: back line. But Pete going into the second half. What

2183
01:45:58,320 --> 01:46:01,800
Speaker 4: are your keys to the sound is getting three points here?

2184
01:46:02,920 --> 01:46:06,560
Speaker 4: Clean sheet number one. Don't let Minnesota come out and

2185
01:46:06,680 --> 01:46:07,200
Speaker 4: get anything.

2186
01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:11,240
Speaker 22: You know, when Colony scored the one goal, it was

2187
01:46:11,320 --> 01:46:13,639
Speaker 22: in the forty sixth minute, his only goal of the year,

2188
01:46:13,680 --> 01:46:14,760
Speaker 22: but it was the game winning goal.

2189
01:46:14,880 --> 01:46:16,840
Speaker 23: So we can come out and put them under some

2190
01:46:16,920 --> 01:46:17,840
Speaker 23: pressure right away.

2191
01:46:18,120 --> 01:46:21,479
Speaker 22: We've let Minnesota get into this game, so making sure

2192
01:46:21,560 --> 01:46:24,400
Speaker 22: defensively we don't give them these opportunities restarts.

2193
01:46:24,439 --> 01:46:25,120
Speaker 23: We've been close.

2194
01:46:25,439 --> 01:46:26,880
Speaker 22: It'd be nice to get a goal on that, but

2195
01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:28,600
Speaker 22: I would love to see Seattle come out in the

2196
01:46:28,680 --> 01:46:31,600
Speaker 22: second half, get an early goal and take control of

2197
01:46:31,720 --> 01:46:32,120
Speaker 22: this game.

2198
01:46:32,640 --> 01:46:36,320
Speaker 4: That's Pete feuing form of CLU head coach. I'm Danny

2199
01:46:36,439 --> 01:46:38,639
Speaker 4: Jackson getting you ready to kick off the second half

2200
01:46:38,680 --> 01:46:42,360
Speaker 4: of the Sounders. They are shooting from left to right

2201
01:46:42,439 --> 01:46:45,040
Speaker 4: for the second half in their evergreen kit, green shirts,

2202
01:46:45,160 --> 01:46:50,120
Speaker 4: light blue shorts and socks. And then Minnesota United are

2203
01:46:50,160 --> 01:46:55,000
Speaker 4: in there, all dark kit and their decade kit, celebrating

2204
01:46:55,080 --> 01:46:57,200
Speaker 4: ten years in MLS since they came into the league

2205
01:46:57,200 --> 01:47:02,360
Speaker 4: in twenty seventeen. They're attacking the goal to left, cold

2206
01:47:02,520 --> 01:47:07,679
Speaker 4: brisk afternoon here ball will be harder and feel harder

2207
01:47:07,760 --> 01:47:15,639
Speaker 4: than normal as well. And Rodriguez the preseason signing short

2208
01:47:15,760 --> 01:47:19,640
Speaker 4: term deal. The marquee player coming into this franchise, the

2209
01:47:19,720 --> 01:47:24,559
Speaker 4: Columbian international prepping for the upcoming World Cup. He's sitting

2210
01:47:24,600 --> 01:47:26,200
Speaker 4: on the bench. I'm sure he'll be introduced at some

2211
01:47:26,280 --> 01:47:28,120
Speaker 4: point in the second half. As the ball goes down

2212
01:47:28,160 --> 01:47:31,200
Speaker 4: the line to the right channel for the Sounders, Dougan

2213
01:47:31,280 --> 01:47:33,559
Speaker 4: does a good job for Minnesota, cleans things up to Ramera,

2214
01:47:33,600 --> 01:47:37,400
Speaker 4: who flicks it inside out to Perea. Ball one by

2215
01:47:37,560 --> 01:47:39,439
Speaker 4: New who no foul. Giving up New who rolls it

2216
01:47:39,479 --> 01:47:41,120
Speaker 4: out to Georgie far side the left and to flick

2217
01:47:41,160 --> 01:47:43,479
Speaker 4: around Diaz. Here comes Georgie. It takes a good step forward,

2218
01:47:43,560 --> 01:47:47,040
Speaker 4: goes down. It's awkward. It's outside the box of referees calling.

2219
01:47:47,360 --> 01:47:50,040
Speaker 4: It's gonna be a yellow card. Georgie did a great

2220
01:47:50,120 --> 01:47:53,400
Speaker 4: job getting around the outside. He got dragged down. We'll

2221
01:47:53,400 --> 01:47:56,479
Speaker 4: see if VR will take another look on the position

2222
01:47:56,640 --> 01:47:59,960
Speaker 4: of that foul. It felt maybe the initial contact was outside.

2223
01:48:00,200 --> 01:48:02,560
Speaker 4: Georgie went down inside the box. It's gonna be a

2224
01:48:02,560 --> 01:48:05,080
Speaker 4: free kick for now on the left hand side. But

2225
01:48:05,200 --> 01:48:06,400
Speaker 4: Pete great start for the Sounders.

2226
01:48:06,479 --> 01:48:09,280
Speaker 23: Yeah, great first touch. From Georgie just getting around.

2227
01:48:10,120 --> 01:48:10,559
Speaker 4: It's tight.

2228
01:48:10,720 --> 01:48:11,519
Speaker 23: It's very tight.

2229
01:48:11,720 --> 01:48:13,320
Speaker 4: It's very tight. We'll take a look at that.

2230
01:48:13,640 --> 01:48:17,040
Speaker 22: Yeah, absolutely, so a good, good build up. Knew who

2231
01:48:17,400 --> 01:48:20,000
Speaker 22: a nice little ball waited to pass out to Georgie.

2232
01:48:20,080 --> 01:48:23,599
Speaker 22: Georgie pokes it by and turns the corner. And if

2233
01:48:23,640 --> 01:48:26,040
Speaker 22: it was outside the box, that was a very important

2234
01:48:26,120 --> 01:48:28,200
Speaker 22: foul for Minnesota because he was on his way to

2235
01:48:28,280 --> 01:48:30,720
Speaker 22: goal and he had numbers in the box and it

2236
01:48:30,800 --> 01:48:33,960
Speaker 22: could have been that forty sixth minute goal that Colone

2237
01:48:34,080 --> 01:48:36,040
Speaker 22: got against Saint Louis for the one nothing wins.

2238
01:48:36,120 --> 01:48:38,360
Speaker 4: So well, that's a tough spot that DS puts himself

2239
01:48:38,400 --> 01:48:40,519
Speaker 4: in now against a player like Georgie. Georgie should get

2240
01:48:40,520 --> 01:48:42,840
Speaker 4: some confidence now that he's got a new bat right back.

2241
01:48:42,920 --> 01:48:44,920
Speaker 4: The he's playing against on a yellow card. He's already

2242
01:48:44,920 --> 01:48:48,360
Speaker 4: been in once now a couple of chances and times

2243
01:48:48,360 --> 01:48:50,360
Speaker 4: in the first half he got around the outside as well.

2244
01:48:51,120 --> 01:48:53,720
Speaker 4: One ball was from Petkovich which was brilliantly played.

2245
01:48:54,600 --> 01:48:56,920
Speaker 22: Great opportunity Rusnik just outside the box. What do you

2246
01:48:56,960 --> 01:48:57,960
Speaker 22: think does he put it on goal?

2247
01:48:58,160 --> 01:48:59,880
Speaker 4: I think he's gonna whip it in low, just gonna

2248
01:49:00,240 --> 01:49:03,920
Speaker 4: around use that maybe that two men wall for a

2249
01:49:04,040 --> 01:49:07,280
Speaker 4: buffer to angle that ball around. We'll see if it

2250
01:49:07,280 --> 01:49:09,240
Speaker 4: will be lower, if we'll be whipped into the back stick.

2251
01:49:10,640 --> 01:49:13,680
Speaker 4: But the Sounders players are inside the six, they're off

2252
01:49:13,760 --> 01:49:15,760
Speaker 4: side right now. They're going to pull themselves back as

2253
01:49:15,960 --> 01:49:19,000
Speaker 4: the Minnesota players hold their line on their six yard box,

2254
01:49:19,080 --> 01:49:22,840
Speaker 4: trying to create some breathing room for calendar in the

2255
01:49:22,920 --> 01:49:27,280
Speaker 4: Minnesota goal, it's about ten yards from the end line,

2256
01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:29,680
Speaker 4: just outside the eighteen yard box left hand side. The

2257
01:49:29,760 --> 01:49:31,680
Speaker 4: instant of the right footed whips it in short and low.

2258
01:49:31,920 --> 01:49:34,320
Speaker 4: Bour bounces around towards the end line. Batter rolled On

2259
01:49:34,439 --> 01:49:36,160
Speaker 4: back to Rosnack. It goes He's going to flick it

2260
01:49:36,200 --> 01:49:39,200
Speaker 4: in towards rolled On's on side left foot goes out

2261
01:49:39,479 --> 01:49:41,680
Speaker 4: just about No, it doesn't. It's saved and over the

2262
01:49:41,760 --> 01:49:45,200
Speaker 4: top goes Duncan. No foul on. Rolled On, rolled On

2263
01:49:45,320 --> 01:49:48,839
Speaker 4: keeps possession, harried by Pereira and Diaz. Diaz goes crunching

2264
01:49:48,920 --> 01:49:52,400
Speaker 4: into him, no foul giving up. Here comes Rossnack off

2265
01:49:52,439 --> 01:49:54,519
Speaker 4: the toe of Duncan over the end line. It goes

2266
01:49:55,200 --> 01:49:58,320
Speaker 4: for an early corner kick for the Sounders. Four kicks

2267
01:49:58,360 --> 01:50:01,280
Speaker 4: in the four corner kicks in the first and now

2268
01:50:01,360 --> 01:50:02,720
Speaker 4: the sound has win in a couple of minutes to

2269
01:50:02,760 --> 01:50:04,920
Speaker 4: the second half, get their first opportunity to whip the

2270
01:50:04,960 --> 01:50:07,519
Speaker 4: ball in from a set piece, and of course Jackson

2271
01:50:07,560 --> 01:50:11,679
Speaker 4: Wigan having come on in the first half for Alex Roldan,

2272
01:50:11,760 --> 01:50:13,680
Speaker 4: will be your main target from this corner kick on

2273
01:50:13,760 --> 01:50:17,600
Speaker 4: the Sounders left, there'll be an in swinger with Rosneck's

2274
01:50:17,720 --> 01:50:21,680
Speaker 4: right foot. As a referee just tries to sort things out,

2275
01:50:21,840 --> 01:50:26,640
Speaker 4: Jackson be marshaled by Yoboa Duncan on Lopez getting his

2276
01:50:26,760 --> 01:50:30,120
Speaker 4: second start in as many games in MLS play sign

2277
01:50:30,160 --> 01:50:33,320
Speaker 4: his contracts of course, or comes in by Rosneck in

2278
01:50:33,360 --> 01:50:35,200
Speaker 4: the middle of the six headed clear by Dugan Good

2279
01:50:35,240 --> 01:50:39,400
Speaker 4: powerful headed by the Minnesota central defender, picked up by Petkovich,

2280
01:50:39,520 --> 01:50:41,679
Speaker 4: is gonna go all the way back to Andrew Thomas,

2281
01:50:41,720 --> 01:50:43,679
Speaker 4: who's way outside his eighteen yard bucks.

2282
01:50:43,720 --> 01:50:44,240
Speaker 2: But nice and.

2283
01:50:44,280 --> 01:50:48,599
Speaker 4: Calm and composed by Andrew as Petkovich gets it back

2284
01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:52,880
Speaker 4: off Kilaney inside the Sounders half of the field, as

2285
01:50:52,920 --> 01:50:55,320
Speaker 4: we get ten dark shirts behind the ball once again,

2286
01:50:55,320 --> 01:50:57,759
Speaker 4: as the ball gets launched forward, headed clear by Diaz

2287
01:50:57,800 --> 01:50:59,840
Speaker 4: on the far side the Sounders left, just off the

2288
01:51:00,560 --> 01:51:04,480
Speaker 4: nose of Georgie and Triantis and Dug in for Minnesota.

2289
01:51:04,600 --> 01:51:07,120
Speaker 4: Now as they hold possession, sound is getting some higher press.

2290
01:51:07,240 --> 01:51:10,040
Speaker 4: Now just outside the eighteen yard box, ball goes into trap,

2291
01:51:10,120 --> 01:51:12,680
Speaker 4: back to Duncan zip back into diout. It does a

2292
01:51:12,760 --> 01:51:15,200
Speaker 4: nice job. I'm just pulling the ball away away from

2293
01:51:15,200 --> 01:51:17,880
Speaker 4: the oncoming George. He's asking for the ball to go out.

2294
01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:20,960
Speaker 4: Nothing given by the assistant referee. This time it does

2295
01:51:21,040 --> 01:51:23,080
Speaker 4: go out most far side and it's going to be

2296
01:51:23,120 --> 01:51:26,760
Speaker 4: a Sounders throw in with Knew who.

2297
01:51:27,960 --> 01:51:30,280
Speaker 22: Danny you talk about what Christian Rohdam will bring to

2298
01:51:30,760 --> 01:51:32,720
Speaker 22: the US national team. We just saw a couple of

2299
01:51:32,800 --> 01:51:35,519
Speaker 22: minutes of it just digging balls out, being very, very

2300
01:51:35,600 --> 01:51:37,920
Speaker 22: tough on the ball in the corner right at the

2301
01:51:37,960 --> 01:51:39,400
Speaker 22: beginning of this second half.

2302
01:51:39,520 --> 01:51:40,760
Speaker 23: That will help him a lot.

2303
01:51:40,880 --> 01:51:42,200
Speaker 4: Let me ask you, as a sound as built from

2304
01:51:42,200 --> 01:51:44,880
Speaker 4: the back. Petkovich is playing part in the middle. Solid

2305
01:51:45,000 --> 01:51:46,559
Speaker 4: first forty five minutes for Nicola.

2306
01:51:46,760 --> 01:51:50,559
Speaker 22: He's had a couple of good balls that have unlocked

2307
01:51:50,800 --> 01:51:52,920
Speaker 22: opportunities for the Sounders, especially.

2308
01:51:52,600 --> 01:51:55,200
Speaker 23: The one to Georgie cleared one off the line. He's

2309
01:51:55,240 --> 01:51:57,840
Speaker 23: been solid. I'd like to see it.

2310
01:51:57,920 --> 01:52:01,240
Speaker 22: I don't think any Sounder player has really been great today.

2311
01:52:01,439 --> 01:52:03,880
Speaker 22: They've not been necessarily as consistent as normal.

2312
01:52:04,840 --> 01:52:06,559
Speaker 4: Feels like it's going to be one of those games again,

2313
01:52:06,600 --> 01:52:10,160
Speaker 4: maybe where Nky San Jose Saint Louis. Just grind out

2314
01:52:10,160 --> 01:52:13,160
Speaker 4: a win if you can one nail this chance mentioned

2315
01:52:13,160 --> 01:52:15,880
Speaker 4: at half time, just keep the clean sheet, give yourself

2316
01:52:15,880 --> 01:52:17,960
Speaker 4: a shot to at least get a point on the road.

2317
01:52:18,000 --> 01:52:20,320
Speaker 4: And I think Brian Schmitz, who would take it considering

2318
01:52:20,360 --> 01:52:22,680
Speaker 4: all these games that have been fast coming in the

2319
01:52:22,760 --> 01:52:23,800
Speaker 4: last ten twelve days.

2320
01:52:23,920 --> 01:52:25,599
Speaker 22: You bet, you bet if you if you said, hey,

2321
01:52:25,640 --> 01:52:28,679
Speaker 22: you're gonna have one tie and one loss in the first.

2322
01:52:28,680 --> 01:52:30,400
Speaker 23: Six Yeah, three think, yeah, I think you'd take it.

2323
01:52:30,520 --> 01:52:32,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, three, five, three clean sheets out of four for

2324
01:52:32,920 --> 01:52:37,040
Speaker 4: Andrew Thomas, as you mentioned, big save towards the end

2325
01:52:37,080 --> 01:52:39,960
Speaker 4: of that first half with his right hand, good deflected,

2326
01:52:40,520 --> 01:52:43,360
Speaker 4: good deflection blocked by Jackson Reagan to follow that one up,

2327
01:52:43,400 --> 01:52:45,040
Speaker 4: and as we mentioned at first up, that's been the

2328
01:52:45,120 --> 01:52:47,679
Speaker 4: one two punch that's really solved it for the Sounders.

2329
01:52:47,680 --> 01:52:51,519
Speaker 4: As Petkevich goes down, it was a little late follow

2330
01:52:51,600 --> 01:52:53,640
Speaker 4: through by Will Trapp, and it's going to be a

2331
01:52:53,760 --> 01:52:55,880
Speaker 4: chance for the Sounders. It's left of center. Has it

2332
01:52:55,960 --> 01:52:59,360
Speaker 4: got twenty five yards out or so, but it's a

2333
01:52:59,439 --> 01:53:02,200
Speaker 4: chance maybe to test Calendar. The Sounders have yet to

2334
01:53:03,960 --> 01:53:07,160
Speaker 4: hit the target on any of those shots, five shots

2335
01:53:07,240 --> 01:53:11,720
Speaker 4: in that first half. But the Sounders and Rosneck, now

2336
01:53:11,880 --> 01:53:16,040
Speaker 4: we've seen Rossneck create some magic from these spots. He's

2337
01:53:16,040 --> 01:53:18,640
Speaker 4: played it below the wall at times, he's dipped it

2338
01:53:18,760 --> 01:53:23,240
Speaker 4: over the wall. He's going a little you know, eye

2339
01:53:23,320 --> 01:53:26,880
Speaker 4: conversation right now with a with another sounder, just to

2340
01:53:26,960 --> 01:53:29,000
Speaker 4: kind of highlight what he wants. As Minnesota hold their

2341
01:53:29,080 --> 01:53:31,320
Speaker 4: line just outside the eighteen yard box, they're gonna most

2342
01:53:31,400 --> 01:53:34,000
Speaker 4: likely drop in if they do it. Ball gets clipped

2343
01:53:34,000 --> 01:53:36,759
Speaker 4: towards the back stick, headed across by Rothrock. Backstick.

2344
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:38,040
Speaker 12: Here it is Lopez.

2345
01:53:38,240 --> 01:53:42,240
Speaker 4: It's a good saved by Calendar. Lopez snuck into the backside.

2346
01:53:43,160 --> 01:53:46,200
Speaker 4: Actually I mean Petkovich. Maybe we'll see on a replay,

2347
01:53:46,280 --> 01:53:47,600
Speaker 4: but it was a good play by the sounder. Its

2348
01:53:47,600 --> 01:53:50,920
Speaker 4: floats towards Rothrock head a back across goal and it

2349
01:53:51,040 --> 01:53:52,600
Speaker 4: was a good save by Calendar in the end, and

2350
01:53:52,640 --> 01:53:56,320
Speaker 4: here come Minnesota quickly on the break as Rothrock comes back.

2351
01:53:56,360 --> 01:53:59,920
Speaker 4: Good nick away and it's a fowl or something called

2352
01:54:00,000 --> 01:54:03,719
Speaker 4: by the referee. I think everyone's a bit confused, including Paul.

2353
01:54:05,280 --> 01:54:07,320
Speaker 4: We see a replay, hippie, we'll let you walk through it.

2354
01:54:08,439 --> 01:54:11,920
Speaker 22: Good ball to the back post. Rothrock nods it back across.

2355
01:54:12,280 --> 01:54:14,120
Speaker 22: I think it was pet convict and I.

2356
01:54:14,120 --> 01:54:14,640
Speaker 4: Wants to take it.

2357
01:54:15,040 --> 01:54:18,280
Speaker 23: And Challenger got to the nearer post and blocked it.

2358
01:54:18,479 --> 01:54:20,679
Speaker 23: He might have done. Welton just knoed it back across.

2359
01:54:21,120 --> 01:54:22,519
Speaker 23: We had numbers inside the box.

2360
01:54:22,720 --> 01:54:24,320
Speaker 4: Good play by Jackson Reagan and wins it out of

2361
01:54:24,320 --> 01:54:26,839
Speaker 4: the air. Here comes Rosnack outside the box. Is Georgi

2362
01:54:27,120 --> 01:54:29,160
Speaker 4: inside the box left hand side, just drops the shoulder

2363
01:54:29,160 --> 01:54:31,000
Speaker 4: towards the end and cuts it back top of the boxes.

2364
01:54:31,040 --> 01:54:33,760
Speaker 4: Petkovich sets up rolled on now Petkevich again a little

2365
01:54:33,760 --> 01:54:36,640
Speaker 4: bit too much. Pekeovich gets a toe in clattering challenge

2366
01:54:36,720 --> 01:54:43,360
Speaker 4: by Mark Kinnichen Shanley's asking for a handbald nothing give

2367
01:54:43,400 --> 01:54:45,000
Speaker 4: him by the referee. Ball on the right hand side

2368
01:54:45,040 --> 01:54:46,680
Speaker 4: to Kolan. He's gonna whip it in low with his

2369
01:54:46,800 --> 01:54:49,240
Speaker 4: right foot. Takes the deflection off trap cleared by dug

2370
01:54:49,320 --> 01:54:52,640
Speaker 4: It cushion head of a shankily the Argentinian playing from

2371
01:54:52,680 --> 01:54:55,440
Speaker 4: New England in the off season, back towards Romero, who

2372
01:54:55,640 --> 01:54:58,720
Speaker 4: launches it forward through his left foot, finds your boa

2373
01:54:58,840 --> 01:55:02,080
Speaker 4: well and then Jack's Reagan just drops the shoulder. Your

2374
01:55:02,080 --> 01:55:03,960
Speaker 4: bo goes past him and he's able to clean things

2375
01:55:04,040 --> 01:55:08,960
Speaker 4: up and rolled on. Just calm back to Tino Lopez,

2376
01:55:08,960 --> 01:55:13,000
Speaker 4: who has been solid again defended well a couple of

2377
01:55:13,040 --> 01:55:17,080
Speaker 4: different times when called upon. But it comes Roussa and

2378
01:55:17,120 --> 01:55:19,120
Speaker 4: her left hand side comes in towards the right inside

2379
01:55:19,120 --> 01:55:22,440
Speaker 4: square ball ten yards inside dead center is Petkovich, who

2380
01:55:22,560 --> 01:55:24,480
Speaker 4: just floats back out to the left hand side to

2381
01:55:25,040 --> 01:55:28,840
Speaker 4: Knew who to Russneck eighteen yards from the end and

2382
01:55:28,920 --> 01:55:30,840
Speaker 4: now he drives forward inside the eighteen yard box, tries

2383
01:55:30,880 --> 01:55:33,120
Speaker 4: to poke it through to Petkovich making a running behind.

2384
01:55:33,560 --> 01:55:36,040
Speaker 4: Duncan clears his lines, looks for the Nick doesn't get it,

2385
01:55:36,520 --> 01:55:39,280
Speaker 4: and it's gonna be a Sounder throw eight yards or

2386
01:55:39,320 --> 01:55:41,400
Speaker 4: so from the corner flag on the far side the

2387
01:55:41,480 --> 01:55:43,720
Speaker 4: Sounder's left. They get it in quickly, no long throw

2388
01:55:44,200 --> 01:55:46,720
Speaker 4: for the Sounders and Georgie, but he's at Georgie has

2389
01:55:46,800 --> 01:55:49,879
Speaker 4: it to his feet, challenged out by Duncan into Petkovitch

2390
01:55:50,000 --> 01:55:52,000
Speaker 4: drops it back with no pressure to rolled do little

2391
01:55:52,000 --> 01:55:55,560
Speaker 4: backy all to Petkovich overlapping run by Knew who Petkevitch

2392
01:55:55,600 --> 01:55:59,680
Speaker 4: just drops it back to rolled on eleven Minnesota players

2393
01:55:59,760 --> 01:56:01,920
Speaker 4: came on top of the eighteen yard box. The sounder

2394
01:56:01,960 --> 01:56:04,080
Speaker 4: starts to build with low pez who just plays its

2395
01:56:04,120 --> 01:56:06,840
Speaker 4: square across the field to roll down, try to find

2396
01:56:06,880 --> 01:56:09,400
Speaker 4: a spot of space to try and open up this

2397
01:56:09,560 --> 01:56:12,800
Speaker 4: back line. His stubborn back line so far for Minnesota.

2398
01:56:12,800 --> 01:56:14,920
Speaker 4: As Ozazi floats to the back post, doesn't get it.

2399
01:56:15,200 --> 01:56:18,120
Speaker 4: Ball at the foot of Petkovitch rolled on and now

2400
01:56:18,160 --> 01:56:21,520
Speaker 4: it's walking pace. Sounders just need to find a little

2401
01:56:21,520 --> 01:56:23,040
Speaker 4: bit of flurry of pace it can they get it

2402
01:56:23,080 --> 01:56:24,800
Speaker 4: with Georgie's They'll step over to his right foot top

2403
01:56:24,800 --> 01:56:27,040
Speaker 4: of the boxes. Rouzneck left hand side of the field,

2404
01:56:27,120 --> 01:56:29,200
Speaker 4: back to Georgie ten yards of the in line to

2405
01:56:29,280 --> 01:56:32,040
Speaker 4: his right foot, strikes it comfortable in the end for Calendar,

2406
01:56:32,240 --> 01:56:34,720
Speaker 4: we've all drop on the left shoulder to his preferred

2407
01:56:34,800 --> 01:56:37,480
Speaker 4: right foot by Georgie from the angle, strikes it well

2408
01:56:37,680 --> 01:56:39,560
Speaker 4: low but easily save by Calendar.

2409
01:56:40,320 --> 01:56:42,840
Speaker 23: Good hands from Calendar and good for azes. Right on

2410
01:56:42,960 --> 01:56:45,760
Speaker 23: top of it. He cops the ball up. Oz's got

2411
01:56:45,760 --> 01:56:46,560
Speaker 23: a good little tap in.

2412
01:56:47,880 --> 01:56:47,920
Speaker 11: No.

2413
01:56:48,520 --> 01:56:51,280
Speaker 22: You talk about the patients of the Minnesota back five,

2414
01:56:51,400 --> 01:56:54,480
Speaker 22: they just make it very difficult. Now they've got three

2415
01:56:54,560 --> 01:56:54,760
Speaker 22: right in.

2416
01:56:54,760 --> 01:56:56,680
Speaker 4: Front of him. Here comes Georgie down the right hand

2417
01:56:56,760 --> 01:56:59,360
Speaker 4: side to roth Rock, now eighteen yards from the ind line,

2418
01:56:59,360 --> 01:57:01,960
Speaker 4: just drops a show back. It comes and it's a

2419
01:57:02,040 --> 01:57:05,400
Speaker 4: deflection of Shankal The number eight comes back to do

2420
01:57:05,520 --> 01:57:09,000
Speaker 4: his defensive work. The new signing for Minnesota. We'll see

2421
01:57:09,000 --> 01:57:12,080
Speaker 4: how long it is until Brian Schmitzer makes some changes.

2422
01:57:13,040 --> 01:57:15,520
Speaker 23: Does feel there's a little more urgency in the second half.

2423
01:57:15,840 --> 01:57:18,840
Speaker 22: Yeah, the halftime talk must have lifted him a little bit,

2424
01:57:18,880 --> 01:57:20,840
Speaker 22: and the players know this is the time to make

2425
01:57:20,880 --> 01:57:21,320
Speaker 22: something happen.

2426
01:57:21,400 --> 01:57:22,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's gonna be a long thrown out by Kolana.

2427
01:57:22,920 --> 01:57:24,760
Speaker 4: They're gonna go back to basics. Here're gonna launch the

2428
01:57:24,760 --> 01:57:27,440
Speaker 4: ball in. They've got a big body of Jackson, Reagan

2429
01:57:27,680 --> 01:57:31,120
Speaker 4: and Ozazi de Rozario. Jackson stays back as Ozaz and

2430
01:57:31,320 --> 01:57:33,440
Speaker 4: roll down in the box. Ball gets floated in or

2431
01:57:33,520 --> 01:57:36,640
Speaker 4: drilled in i should say by Kolani, collected well by

2432
01:57:36,680 --> 01:57:39,840
Speaker 4: Petkovitch who plays it inside to Jackson who did stay

2433
01:57:39,920 --> 01:57:42,440
Speaker 4: back for that particular long throw. Its new who almost

2434
01:57:42,440 --> 01:57:45,720
Speaker 4: gets caught in possession. Now driving forward, triants come into

2435
01:57:46,880 --> 01:57:50,480
Speaker 4: defend in square to Rudzneck just turns his body, comes

2436
01:57:50,480 --> 01:57:52,840
Speaker 4: fifteen yards inside, dead center the park is Petkovitch. It

2437
01:57:52,880 --> 01:57:55,040
Speaker 4: flicks a nice ball to this near side the right

2438
01:57:55,400 --> 01:57:58,560
Speaker 4: towards Kilane cuts the ball back to Rotock get a

2439
01:57:58,640 --> 01:57:59,960
Speaker 4: chance to maybe whip it in. But it was good

2440
01:58:00,080 --> 01:58:04,360
Speaker 4: defending by Minnesota's backline again is a hurried and chase

2441
01:58:04,440 --> 01:58:06,400
Speaker 4: back and it was a nice ball by Petkovich. Just

2442
01:58:06,480 --> 01:58:07,200
Speaker 4: opened things up.

2443
01:58:07,760 --> 01:58:09,200
Speaker 23: I think that we're starting to get a feel for

2444
01:58:09,280 --> 01:58:11,840
Speaker 23: what he's good at. I think that's the ball it's

2445
01:58:12,120 --> 01:58:13,880
Speaker 23: breaking and unlocking defenses.

2446
01:58:14,000 --> 01:58:16,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's looking more comfortable by the minute. Got his

2447
01:58:16,200 --> 01:58:18,800
Speaker 4: first start last week, got minutes in prior weeks, but

2448
01:58:19,560 --> 01:58:23,080
Speaker 4: two starts in consecutive MLS regular season games.

2449
01:58:23,680 --> 01:58:25,520
Speaker 23: He's a little bit more of a creative midfielder.

2450
01:58:25,800 --> 01:58:27,760
Speaker 4: Balling him is now top of the box, tries to

2451
01:58:27,800 --> 01:58:31,240
Speaker 4: poke with his right foot. It's a clattering challenge from Romero.

2452
01:58:31,760 --> 01:58:34,040
Speaker 4: Petkovich still on the ground. He tried to just flick

2453
01:58:34,120 --> 01:58:36,120
Speaker 4: it with the toe of his right foot to get

2454
01:58:36,160 --> 01:58:38,720
Speaker 4: a quick shot off as he saw the big Minnesota

2455
01:58:38,840 --> 01:58:43,360
Speaker 4: central defender coming across, and it was a clean challenge

2456
01:58:43,400 --> 01:58:46,720
Speaker 4: per the referee. Pekovich's back on his feet, just hobbling

2457
01:58:46,840 --> 01:58:47,600
Speaker 4: back into position.

2458
01:58:48,480 --> 01:58:51,360
Speaker 22: He's not obed He's not Snyder Bernell. He's a little

2459
01:58:51,360 --> 01:58:52,680
Speaker 22: bit more like Albert Rusnak.

2460
01:58:52,880 --> 01:58:54,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, just kind of glides and floats around the field.

2461
01:58:54,680 --> 01:58:56,760
Speaker 4: Got decent technique, got good size and height.

2462
01:58:57,760 --> 01:58:59,360
Speaker 23: He's confident going to shoot.

2463
01:58:59,400 --> 01:59:02,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, get more comfortable by the time is spending on

2464
01:59:02,920 --> 01:59:05,680
Speaker 4: the field, as is this man Lopezo, as we mentioned

2465
01:59:05,720 --> 01:59:10,240
Speaker 4: the first half, has signed his first team contract with

2466
01:59:11,000 --> 01:59:14,080
Speaker 4: the Sounders. But here come Georgie, Now can he have

2467
01:59:15,760 --> 01:59:19,600
Speaker 4: a breakout second half? Georgie of course, feels like he

2468
01:59:19,800 --> 01:59:22,160
Speaker 4: needs to make every minute count. Right now, You've got

2469
01:59:22,400 --> 01:59:25,360
Speaker 4: Paul Ariola scoring two goals on his first start in

2470
01:59:25,400 --> 01:59:28,120
Speaker 4: twelve months against Vancouver in that first leg game. He's

2471
01:59:28,160 --> 01:59:30,960
Speaker 4: on the bench, Paul Rothrock of course, coming off for

2472
01:59:31,280 --> 01:59:33,880
Speaker 4: Jordan Morris for that left hand side gold and assists

2473
01:59:33,920 --> 01:59:37,280
Speaker 4: in his first game of the season. And of course

2474
01:59:37,320 --> 01:59:41,320
Speaker 4: you're Jordan Morris sitting on that bench, who had talked

2475
01:59:41,320 --> 01:59:44,480
Speaker 4: about playing back out on that left hand side started

2476
01:59:44,560 --> 01:59:46,320
Speaker 4: there in the first game before him to come off

2477
01:59:46,360 --> 01:59:49,320
Speaker 4: after six minutes, unfortunately for the Sounders and for Jordan.

2478
01:59:49,400 --> 01:59:52,600
Speaker 4: But he's back, he's fit, and we'll see with Ozaze

2479
01:59:53,160 --> 01:59:55,280
Speaker 4: to run out today. And note Danny Massovski what Brian

2480
01:59:55,320 --> 01:59:57,680
Speaker 4: Schmitzer will do in terms of attacking options, if you'll

2481
01:59:57,760 --> 02:00:02,520
Speaker 4: stick Jordan up front success of course against Minnesota on

2482
02:00:02,640 --> 02:00:06,200
Speaker 4: that right hand side in the playoffs, that's where Brian

2483
02:00:06,320 --> 02:00:10,160
Speaker 4: preferred to play him, especially in the latter stages of

2484
02:00:10,360 --> 02:00:11,920
Speaker 4: the game, where you got lots of joy on that

2485
02:00:12,040 --> 02:00:14,240
Speaker 4: right hand side, beating a player get into the end line.

2486
02:00:14,800 --> 02:00:17,360
Speaker 22: The way Paul's playing Georgie's plan, I think he might

2487
02:00:17,440 --> 02:00:20,840
Speaker 22: take Ozaze off because they are getting some success wide.

2488
02:00:21,320 --> 02:00:24,160
Speaker 22: Petrovic is finding them, so it could be that he

2489
02:00:24,200 --> 02:00:26,600
Speaker 22: gives Jordan a chance, and I think Jordan would relish

2490
02:00:26,680 --> 02:00:27,400
Speaker 22: that opportunity.

2491
02:00:27,640 --> 02:00:30,520
Speaker 23: Go in thirty minutes, twenty minutes run down.

2492
02:00:30,400 --> 02:00:31,520
Speaker 2: The middle Well.

2493
02:00:31,520 --> 02:00:35,360
Speaker 4: Tonight's match is presented by the Western Washington Toyota Dealers.

2494
02:00:35,400 --> 02:00:38,800
Speaker 4: We get here in the fifty ninth minute Minnesota nil,

2495
02:00:38,880 --> 02:00:42,080
Speaker 4: Sounders nil, and Sports Radio nine to fifty km from

2496
02:00:42,160 --> 02:00:45,720
Speaker 4: Alliance Field. In this score update's presented by Toyota.

2497
02:00:47,400 --> 02:00:49,440
Speaker 22: Danny, you talked about Jackson Reagan at the beginning. Do

2498
02:00:49,480 --> 02:00:53,040
Speaker 22: you think, minus the goal production, he's becoming Chad Marshall.

2499
02:00:53,560 --> 02:00:56,200
Speaker 4: He's getting closer, you know, I think Chad leadership as well.

2500
02:00:56,200 --> 02:00:59,120
Speaker 4: I think Jackson has taking that mantle. You know, Chad

2501
02:00:59,160 --> 02:01:02,160
Speaker 4: by all accounts, was a loud, boisterous player on the field,

2502
02:01:02,240 --> 02:01:04,720
Speaker 4: not demanding like the likes of Roy Keane, those kind

2503
02:01:04,760 --> 02:01:10,240
Speaker 4: of captains. But let by example an incredible, incredibly consistent career.

2504
02:01:10,600 --> 02:01:12,040
Speaker 4: I thing you can say. But he ball goes back

2505
02:01:12,080 --> 02:01:14,680
Speaker 4: to Calendar just about gets there, Calendar launches it forward.

2506
02:01:14,760 --> 02:01:17,280
Speaker 4: Sounders pick it up easily just inside their attacking half

2507
02:01:17,320 --> 02:01:19,480
Speaker 4: the field with Jackson lays it off to new far

2508
02:01:19,520 --> 02:01:21,200
Speaker 4: south the left. Georgie has it, doesn't move to it.

2509
02:01:21,440 --> 02:01:24,280
Speaker 4: Duncan does, steps in, wins the ball, tries to play

2510
02:01:24,280 --> 02:01:26,680
Speaker 4: it forward into the middle. Good step by Lopez, nicely

2511
02:01:26,720 --> 02:01:30,680
Speaker 4: cushioned off his thigh, refreezing the way that plays it square.

2512
02:01:30,800 --> 02:01:32,600
Speaker 4: Job done by Lopez. That's all you need to do.

2513
02:01:33,400 --> 02:01:35,480
Speaker 4: And that's a dragged foot by a shankle. Just puts

2514
02:01:35,520 --> 02:01:37,440
Speaker 4: his hand up, apologizes. I think it's on a yellow

2515
02:01:37,520 --> 02:01:40,720
Speaker 4: card as well, so just making sure he doesn't get

2516
02:01:40,720 --> 02:01:43,880
Speaker 4: an any trouble. Yeats of course got that early yellow

2517
02:01:43,960 --> 02:01:45,760
Speaker 4: card in the second half. Ball out to the right inside.

2518
02:01:45,800 --> 02:01:48,240
Speaker 4: Now with Rothrock doesn't cross comes inside. He had a

2519
02:01:48,320 --> 02:01:50,080
Speaker 4: chance to me whip it in and that's the kind

2520
02:01:50,080 --> 02:01:52,360
Speaker 4: of delivery. As the ball gets knocked down, that's a

2521
02:01:52,480 --> 02:01:56,760
Speaker 4: clumsy foul by Perea, not as Forte defending the playmaker

2522
02:01:56,880 --> 02:01:59,800
Speaker 4: for Minnesota. But this gid is sound as a real

2523
02:02:00,120 --> 02:02:04,760
Speaker 4: chance right of center twenty three twenty five yards out

2524
02:02:04,880 --> 02:02:08,200
Speaker 4: or so, and this really is in shooting distance for

2525
02:02:08,400 --> 02:02:10,879
Speaker 4: the likes of Albert Rosnik.

2526
02:02:12,520 --> 02:02:15,600
Speaker 23: Yeah, a clumsy challenge from behind one. He didn't get

2527
02:02:15,640 --> 02:02:16,640
Speaker 23: his position in Perea.

2528
02:02:17,400 --> 02:02:21,200
Speaker 22: Tou to give the Seattle this opportunity, especially at zero zero,

2529
02:02:21,440 --> 02:02:23,320
Speaker 22: not a good, not a wise decision.

2530
02:02:24,600 --> 02:02:27,360
Speaker 4: Calendar sawing his wall out, figuring out three or four,

2531
02:02:28,160 --> 02:02:31,360
Speaker 4: and we'll see what Rosnak does. Say we've seen players

2532
02:02:31,440 --> 02:02:34,839
Speaker 4: of his ilk whip it in low to the near post.

2533
02:02:35,400 --> 02:02:38,240
Speaker 4: We'll see if the wall jumps or if they just

2534
02:02:38,360 --> 02:02:40,520
Speaker 4: stay and just prevent that ball going under the wall.

2535
02:02:42,320 --> 02:02:44,800
Speaker 4: The Heighlevitch, if you remember last year, did that exact

2536
02:02:45,120 --> 02:02:47,960
Speaker 4: thing when it went under the wall against the Sounders

2537
02:02:48,000 --> 02:02:52,760
Speaker 4: and scored that free kick in Colorado. So now we

2538
02:02:52,800 --> 02:02:55,520
Speaker 4: get to see what Rosnak has up his sleeve. He

2539
02:02:55,640 --> 02:02:57,520
Speaker 4: can go over the wall, he can whip it from

2540
02:02:58,480 --> 02:03:00,880
Speaker 4: to the far post of his right. Seen David Beckham

2541
02:03:00,920 --> 02:03:03,960
Speaker 4: do that of course in his years catches the goalkeeper

2542
02:03:04,040 --> 02:03:06,280
Speaker 4: off guard and the expects of one dipping over to

2543
02:03:06,360 --> 02:03:09,600
Speaker 4: the near post. Oh, is he going to surprise us

2544
02:03:09,640 --> 02:03:12,520
Speaker 4: all and maybe just think it to the back stick.

2545
02:03:12,560 --> 02:03:14,200
Speaker 4: It is what he did last time from the left

2546
02:03:14,240 --> 02:03:17,120
Speaker 4: hand side. This time it's from the right hand side.

2547
02:03:18,560 --> 02:03:18,720
Speaker 21: Well.

2548
02:03:18,720 --> 02:03:22,320
Speaker 4: Sounders FC SOK is presented by Provident, Swedish official healthcare

2549
02:03:22,440 --> 02:03:27,360
Speaker 4: partner of Sounders FC. It comes Rosneck will just passed

2550
02:03:27,360 --> 02:03:29,320
Speaker 4: a sixty minute mark. Good time for the Sounders to

2551
02:03:29,320 --> 02:03:31,280
Speaker 4: score a goal. Ball whipped in it will good go

2552
02:03:31,440 --> 02:03:34,080
Speaker 4: low right into the hip of Peree at top of

2553
02:03:34,080 --> 02:03:36,280
Speaker 4: the box. Is new who nothing forward, has to go

2554
02:03:36,360 --> 02:03:40,160
Speaker 4: back referee in the way again or goes back to Kerlanney.

2555
02:03:40,240 --> 02:03:44,200
Speaker 4: As little trap presses, Klani goes forward down the right

2556
02:03:44,320 --> 02:03:46,360
Speaker 4: channel for the Sounders. George is gonna run after. He's

2557
02:03:46,360 --> 02:03:48,200
Speaker 4: going to get there. He's going to force a clear

2558
02:03:48,280 --> 02:03:51,880
Speaker 4: into shankily pulls it down and saves the ball going

2559
02:03:51,920 --> 02:03:54,600
Speaker 4: out of bounds. As Rothrock comes back to Harry and

2560
02:03:54,720 --> 02:03:58,320
Speaker 4: hustle and clip forward by Minnesota down their left hand

2561
02:03:58,360 --> 02:04:01,160
Speaker 4: side nearside. Good play by Christian rolled on bull whipt

2562
02:04:01,240 --> 02:04:03,480
Speaker 4: in low by Rothrock picked up by Marketich top of

2563
02:04:03,520 --> 02:04:06,440
Speaker 4: the box, harried by three green shirts, gets away with it,

2564
02:04:06,680 --> 02:04:09,800
Speaker 4: clips it down the line, and that's Lopez brilliantly spins

2565
02:04:09,840 --> 02:04:12,760
Speaker 4: out a pressure from your boa and then retains possession.

2566
02:04:12,840 --> 02:04:14,280
Speaker 4: Sounders have it with Jackson Reagan.

2567
02:04:14,520 --> 02:04:15,280
Speaker 23: Good for Lopez.

2568
02:04:15,320 --> 02:04:17,240
Speaker 22: That's the second time in the last five minutes he's

2569
02:04:17,520 --> 02:04:19,480
Speaker 22: done very well to step to the ball or protect

2570
02:04:19,520 --> 02:04:19,760
Speaker 22: the ball.

2571
02:04:19,920 --> 02:04:23,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's get you the bench really quick. Sounders have

2572
02:04:23,280 --> 02:04:28,839
Speaker 4: Ariola Ferrera, Fry of course, Jordan Morris, Cody Baker, Snyder Brunelle,

2573
02:04:28,880 --> 02:04:31,240
Speaker 4: Peter Kingston. So loaded bench, lots of options.

2574
02:04:32,160 --> 02:04:34,520
Speaker 23: I think that's you know, we've seen it throughout this season.

2575
02:04:34,600 --> 02:04:36,320
Speaker 23: That is one of the best benches in MLS.

2576
02:04:36,840 --> 02:04:39,080
Speaker 4: Here comes Georgie now left hand side, eighteen yards of

2577
02:04:39,080 --> 02:04:41,000
Speaker 4: the end line comes back to new who of course,

2578
02:04:42,840 --> 02:04:45,560
Speaker 4: Sounds have four changes still to make and a couple

2579
02:04:45,600 --> 02:04:49,320
Speaker 4: of windows of opportunity, and it comes Rosnick. What do

2580
02:04:49,360 --> 02:04:52,080
Speaker 4: you made the change of course for Jackson Reagan coming

2581
02:04:52,160 --> 02:04:55,160
Speaker 4: on inside the first twenty minutes for Alex Roldan and

2582
02:04:55,200 --> 02:04:57,080
Speaker 4: picked up what looked like some kind of hip flexa

2583
02:04:57,360 --> 02:05:00,960
Speaker 4: hip issue. There's rolled on there are square two. Lopez

2584
02:05:01,000 --> 02:05:02,720
Speaker 4: advanced from his center back, Spot rolls it out to

2585
02:05:02,800 --> 02:05:04,760
Speaker 4: this near sight of Rothrop pinching it from his right

2586
02:05:05,040 --> 02:05:08,400
Speaker 4: outside Wingspot rolls it back to Jackson Reagan. It's just

2587
02:05:09,040 --> 02:05:13,720
Speaker 4: hunk it in now Minnesota. The ball goes to the outside,

2588
02:05:13,800 --> 02:05:16,200
Speaker 4: miss play and the referee is going to call it back.

2589
02:05:16,280 --> 02:05:19,280
Speaker 4: It was Petkovich who got caught, and it's going to

2590
02:05:19,320 --> 02:05:22,200
Speaker 4: be a free kick for the Sounders, and it say

2591
02:05:22,200 --> 02:05:26,920
Speaker 4: it's a change now. So Snider Brunel, Jordan Morris, Petkovich

2592
02:05:27,040 --> 02:05:30,800
Speaker 4: looks like is the man to come off. He's played

2593
02:05:30,840 --> 02:05:37,959
Speaker 4: a good sixty four minutes, has Petkovich, And here's Petkovich

2594
02:05:38,000 --> 02:05:40,880
Speaker 4: for Snider Brunell, like for like switch. Jordan Morris is

2595
02:05:40,920 --> 02:05:43,600
Speaker 4: going to come on like for light switch, potentially for

2596
02:05:45,200 --> 02:05:50,040
Speaker 4: Derrazario Farrera light flight switch with Manungo. So nothing will change,

2597
02:05:50,160 --> 02:05:54,480
Speaker 4: most likely in formational tactics, and you'd have to even

2598
02:05:54,640 --> 02:05:56,800
Speaker 4: say that the players coming on the field are going

2599
02:05:56,840 --> 02:06:00,760
Speaker 4: to be starters in any given game. Gets his first

2600
02:06:00,800 --> 02:06:03,600
Speaker 4: introduction back into the lineup after going off after six minutes,

2601
02:06:03,640 --> 02:06:06,680
Speaker 4: and that home opener. Good to see Jordan back. Then Ferrara,

2602
02:06:06,800 --> 02:06:12,960
Speaker 4: can he unlock this stagnant back four with four assists

2603
02:06:13,000 --> 02:06:14,960
Speaker 4: on his MLS season so far. The ball goes down

2604
02:06:14,960 --> 02:06:17,120
Speaker 4: the line towards roll down play quickly out of the

2605
02:06:17,160 --> 02:06:19,840
Speaker 4: free kick for the Sounders, harried by Will Trapp goes

2606
02:06:19,920 --> 02:06:25,880
Speaker 4: back from Christian to Kerlarney. He's gonna now back up

2607
02:06:25,960 --> 02:06:30,360
Speaker 4: about four or five yards inside into the advertising boards.

2608
02:06:30,360 --> 02:06:32,160
Speaker 4: He's going to launch this one long. No he doesn't.

2609
02:06:32,200 --> 02:06:36,760
Speaker 4: He goes back. Eleven men behind the ball again for Minnesota,

2610
02:06:36,920 --> 02:06:40,080
Speaker 4: low block just twenty five yards or so outside of

2611
02:06:40,080 --> 02:06:43,680
Speaker 4: the eighteen yard box. Just very tight lines for Minnesota,

2612
02:06:44,200 --> 02:06:48,440
Speaker 4: even your BoA's level with the attacking three midfield players.

2613
02:06:49,360 --> 02:06:51,600
Speaker 4: So Sounders did work on this in the off season.

2614
02:06:51,920 --> 02:06:55,280
Speaker 4: Brian Schwetza mentioned that they got frustrated at times playing

2615
02:06:55,280 --> 02:06:57,400
Speaker 4: against these low blocks and they had to find ways

2616
02:06:57,400 --> 02:07:00,200
Speaker 4: to unlock it. And we'll see if that worked on

2617
02:07:00,280 --> 02:07:02,959
Speaker 4: the training field during pre season in Spain and Portugal

2618
02:07:03,080 --> 02:07:06,480
Speaker 4: pays off and can they come away with three points

2619
02:07:06,560 --> 02:07:09,640
Speaker 4: which will jump them up into the standings again. It's

2620
02:07:09,680 --> 02:07:13,920
Speaker 4: been a good response out of that first loss against

2621
02:07:14,080 --> 02:07:19,200
Speaker 4: RSL four on the trot all four on the road,

2622
02:07:19,680 --> 02:07:22,400
Speaker 4: Saint Louis one nil, Santos A one nil, and regular season,

2623
02:07:22,440 --> 02:07:26,080
Speaker 4: then two games against Vancouver one, of course, up in Vancouver,

2624
02:07:26,560 --> 02:07:29,080
Speaker 4: true away game, three nil, and then there was a

2625
02:07:29,120 --> 02:07:32,320
Speaker 4: two to one win. And in Spokane this past week,

2626
02:07:33,560 --> 02:07:36,080
Speaker 4: of course is away from the confines of Loomin Field,

2627
02:07:36,160 --> 02:07:37,920
Speaker 4: so we'll call it an away game. The team have

2628
02:07:38,000 --> 02:07:40,440
Speaker 4: to travel, have to sleep in a hotel room, but

2629
02:07:41,840 --> 02:07:43,760
Speaker 4: by all counts it was a home game. Just couldn't

2630
02:07:43,760 --> 02:07:46,320
Speaker 4: play on the surface that Lumanfield is currently working on

2631
02:07:46,480 --> 02:07:49,000
Speaker 4: for the World Cup. But it come The Sounders now

2632
02:07:49,240 --> 02:07:53,440
Speaker 4: just banked into the attacking third of the field. Jackson

2633
02:07:53,480 --> 02:07:56,120
Speaker 4: Reagan almost playing like a centiment field player. Now as

2634
02:07:56,120 --> 02:07:58,320
Speaker 4: he steps forward, plays the ball down lined, Kilaney down

2635
02:07:58,320 --> 02:08:00,840
Speaker 4: towards rolled On, plays it low in and ball bounces

2636
02:08:00,880 --> 02:08:01,360
Speaker 4: off Prera.

2637
02:08:01,520 --> 02:08:02,120
Speaker 2: Was he offside?

2638
02:08:02,200 --> 02:08:05,200
Speaker 4: No, he wasn't. Ball collected by Pereira, and this is

2639
02:08:05,240 --> 02:08:08,879
Speaker 4: where Minnesota can go and he jumps over the challenge

2640
02:08:09,520 --> 02:08:12,360
Speaker 4: and is that gonna be a yellow column? Jackson. I

2641
02:08:12,440 --> 02:08:15,800
Speaker 4: felt like it was almost a dive biprare. I thought

2642
02:08:15,800 --> 02:08:19,280
Speaker 4: I was gonna go potential to Perera, but it doesn't.

2643
02:08:19,320 --> 02:08:22,040
Speaker 4: It's a foul. It's a free kick from Minnesota. And

2644
02:08:22,120 --> 02:08:23,560
Speaker 4: that's kind of where the sound has become a little

2645
02:08:23,560 --> 02:08:25,920
Speaker 4: bit unstuck where they've pushed players forward. It looked very

2646
02:08:25,960 --> 02:08:29,160
Speaker 4: comfortable and the ball turns over quickly and then Minnesota

2647
02:08:29,160 --> 02:08:30,760
Speaker 4: have had chime and space in the middle of the park.

2648
02:08:30,920 --> 02:08:34,280
Speaker 23: Yeah, one soft yellow card on Jackson Reagan, for sure,

2649
02:08:34,320 --> 02:08:35,760
Speaker 23: he just put his body in the way.

2650
02:08:36,000 --> 02:08:37,880
Speaker 22: He knew what he was doing, of course, But you know,

2651
02:08:37,960 --> 02:08:40,240
Speaker 22: I think about this low block and I think, how

2652
02:08:40,240 --> 02:08:42,760
Speaker 22: do you sell this to the home fans? Right, We're

2653
02:08:42,840 --> 02:08:45,880
Speaker 22: gonna defend, defend, defend, defend, and hopefully we counter attack

2654
02:08:46,200 --> 02:08:47,600
Speaker 22: one or two times when we get the win.

2655
02:08:47,840 --> 02:08:50,360
Speaker 23: So that is not Seattle stuck.

2656
02:08:50,400 --> 02:08:53,640
Speaker 4: It comes Jordan tries to find roll Down and he does,

2657
02:08:53,720 --> 02:08:56,160
Speaker 4: but roll Don keeps it away. Quid played by Snyder Brunelle,

2658
02:08:56,200 --> 02:08:58,600
Speaker 4: just trying to poke the ball away from will Trap

2659
02:08:58,720 --> 02:08:59,640
Speaker 4: but he gets away with it.

2660
02:08:59,760 --> 02:08:59,960
Speaker 2: Nope.

2661
02:09:00,040 --> 02:09:02,000
Speaker 4: Rshon Perea, Jackson Reagan on the yellow card. That has

2662
02:09:02,040 --> 02:09:04,960
Speaker 4: to be careful offside, potentially by Dunkley. It looks like

2663
02:09:05,000 --> 02:09:06,920
Speaker 4: there's a yard of to our side. The ball's too heavy,

2664
02:09:07,320 --> 02:09:10,520
Speaker 4: goes into Andrew Thomas and Knew who follows it all

2665
02:09:10,520 --> 02:09:12,600
Speaker 4: way through booze from the crowd or anything like that.

2666
02:09:13,600 --> 02:09:16,000
Speaker 23: They don't like Andrew Thomas. Each time he gets the ball,

2667
02:09:16,080 --> 02:09:16,680
Speaker 23: they get the booze.

2668
02:09:16,720 --> 02:09:19,640
Speaker 22: I think it's from the penalty kick shootout between he

2669
02:09:19,720 --> 02:09:21,480
Speaker 22: and Saint Clair the last game they played.

2670
02:09:21,480 --> 02:09:23,520
Speaker 4: Here Sounders now breaking the line, playing a little quicker.

2671
02:09:23,520 --> 02:09:25,400
Speaker 4: Now Rosneck has it out to the left hand side,

2672
02:09:25,480 --> 02:09:28,040
Speaker 4: Rothrock has down the left, plays it in towards Jordan

2673
02:09:28,120 --> 02:09:30,400
Speaker 4: Morris asking for the ball between goalkeeper and back line.

2674
02:09:30,400 --> 02:09:33,200
Speaker 4: He didn't get it, and now Jordan is playing that

2675
02:09:33,320 --> 02:09:36,160
Speaker 4: the Facto number nine. It's Farrera who's coming off that

2676
02:09:36,280 --> 02:09:39,960
Speaker 4: right hand side. Klaney advance on our near side, whipped

2677
02:09:40,040 --> 02:09:42,200
Speaker 4: end on the far side by Russak. It's going to

2678
02:09:42,280 --> 02:09:45,280
Speaker 4: bounce towards Calendar, takes a deflection and it's going to

2679
02:09:45,320 --> 02:09:48,720
Speaker 4: be a corner kick for the Sounders on their left

2680
02:09:48,800 --> 02:09:52,200
Speaker 4: hand side. So Jordan Morris on playing down the middle,

2681
02:09:54,360 --> 02:09:57,000
Speaker 4: Farrera on playing on the right hand side, Rothrock switches

2682
02:09:57,040 --> 02:09:59,600
Speaker 4: to that left hand side. Snider Vernew lightful like switch

2683
02:09:59,720 --> 02:10:02,400
Speaker 4: for Petkovich had a good outing. After sixty three minutes

2684
02:10:02,520 --> 02:10:06,480
Speaker 4: or so, Now the Sounders have close to their best

2685
02:10:06,720 --> 02:10:11,720
Speaker 4: eleven available now or whipped in by the right foot

2686
02:10:11,760 --> 02:10:14,720
Speaker 4: of Rosnak. Top of the boxes. Kilane strikes. It's a

2687
02:10:14,760 --> 02:10:19,920
Speaker 4: great pass to Rosneck is offside unfortunately for Kilani with

2688
02:10:19,960 --> 02:10:21,760
Speaker 4: a mishit shot from the top of the box. And

2689
02:10:22,000 --> 02:10:24,120
Speaker 4: you're a generous to this outside of you.

2690
02:10:24,280 --> 02:10:27,080
Speaker 23: Yeah, I do like this Rothrock, Yes, I do like

2691
02:10:27,240 --> 02:10:29,960
Speaker 23: Rothrock on the left. Ferrera, as you mentioned when he

2692
02:10:30,000 --> 02:10:32,360
Speaker 23: came on for us this, he's very good from that

2693
02:10:32,480 --> 02:10:33,200
Speaker 23: right hand side.

2694
02:10:33,360 --> 02:10:36,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, broke through the San Jose stubborn back line last

2695
02:10:36,520 --> 02:10:38,680
Speaker 4: week with a great ball into Rothrock coming off that

2696
02:10:38,800 --> 02:10:40,840
Speaker 4: right hand side. Now they'll have to find Rothrock off

2697
02:10:40,880 --> 02:10:45,240
Speaker 4: that left, which of course he's scored goals against Vancouver

2698
02:10:45,400 --> 02:10:47,120
Speaker 4: and of course that first game as well. Little week

2699
02:10:47,160 --> 02:10:51,480
Speaker 4: on the pass by Jackson seeing a yellow car. But

2700
02:10:51,560 --> 02:10:55,760
Speaker 4: here comes Minnesota in possession inside the attacking half of

2701
02:10:55,760 --> 02:10:57,720
Speaker 4: the field, and the few fore is the second half

2702
02:10:57,880 --> 02:11:02,800
Speaker 4: into the Sounders' territory defensively, as pre has a nibble

2703
02:11:03,200 --> 02:11:06,720
Speaker 4: down goes pereer for Minnesota on the halfway line. It's

2704
02:11:06,760 --> 02:11:07,800
Speaker 4: gonna be a foul giving up.

2705
02:11:09,200 --> 02:11:11,440
Speaker 22: I wonder if we'll see Peter Kingston come in on

2706
02:11:11,560 --> 02:11:13,720
Speaker 22: the right hand side, said very well, he was a

2707
02:11:13,760 --> 02:11:14,320
Speaker 22: couple of weeks.

2708
02:11:14,400 --> 02:11:15,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think a.

2709
02:11:15,200 --> 02:11:16,800
Speaker 23: Couple of good assists with Vancouver.

2710
02:11:17,080 --> 02:11:18,960
Speaker 4: Sure there's some work going behind the scenes of how

2711
02:11:19,000 --> 02:11:21,120
Speaker 4: do you kind of engage him or into the first

2712
02:11:21,160 --> 02:11:25,440
Speaker 4: team picture contract wise and squad wise. But he's done

2713
02:11:25,520 --> 02:11:28,760
Speaker 4: himself no harm whatsoever. Former u CLU man of course

2714
02:11:28,840 --> 02:11:32,680
Speaker 4: for three years. Good man, good good guy on and

2715
02:11:32,760 --> 02:11:35,800
Speaker 4: off the field. Family men. That's not a little pushing

2716
02:11:35,840 --> 02:11:38,120
Speaker 4: as nudge by a combination of Brunell and Rothrocks. So

2717
02:11:38,280 --> 02:11:40,440
Speaker 4: games a bit stop start now, So let's get you

2718
02:11:40,440 --> 02:11:42,920
Speaker 4: a couple of results around the league today. New York

2719
02:11:42,960 --> 02:11:46,920
Speaker 4: City two at Yankee Stadium, Miami three. Is a good

2720
02:11:46,920 --> 02:11:48,919
Speaker 4: win for Miami on the road in a tough environment.

2721
02:11:49,560 --> 02:11:54,720
Speaker 4: Cincinnati four, Montreal three. Cincinnati getting a rebound now, it's

2722
02:11:54,760 --> 02:11:59,600
Speaker 4: that disappointed in midweek Portland played the Galaxy later on

2723
02:12:00,520 --> 02:12:06,200
Speaker 4: and then San Diego RSL playing the late game this afternoon,

2724
02:12:06,800 --> 02:12:09,200
Speaker 4: so it's a fowl on Jordan Morris goes down to

2725
02:12:09,280 --> 02:12:12,720
Speaker 4: the deck and knowing Jordan with his body and coming

2726
02:12:12,760 --> 02:12:18,280
Speaker 4: back from injury in the cold, tempts of Minnesota, gets

2727
02:12:18,360 --> 02:12:21,120
Speaker 4: up gingerly and walks away. So let's getting some Western

2728
02:12:21,160 --> 02:12:26,920
Speaker 4: Conference results coming out of yesterday as well. Saint Louis three,

2729
02:12:27,200 --> 02:12:32,520
Speaker 4: New England one, Sporting Kansas City one, Colorado Force. Colorda

2730
02:12:32,600 --> 02:12:37,160
Speaker 4: get a big win on the road. I'm scoring Dallas sorry,

2731
02:12:37,200 --> 02:12:41,880
Speaker 4: Texas Derby Dallas four, Houston three, Austin nil, LAFC neil

2732
02:12:41,920 --> 02:12:45,400
Speaker 4: so another clean sheaf LAFC and then San Jose continue

2733
02:12:45,440 --> 02:12:46,960
Speaker 4: their good form. They got a blit last week with

2734
02:12:47,040 --> 02:12:48,680
Speaker 4: the Sounders, came in town and beat them one nil.

2735
02:12:48,720 --> 02:12:54,800
Speaker 4: But Vancouver get another loss in space of four or

2736
02:12:54,880 --> 02:12:58,040
Speaker 4: five days. They go down one nil at home to

2737
02:12:58,160 --> 02:12:59,880
Speaker 4: San Jose. It's a good win for San Jose on

2738
02:13:00,080 --> 02:13:04,120
Speaker 4: road and Bruce Arena. But it's the sound is now

2739
02:13:04,200 --> 02:13:06,280
Speaker 4: free kick on this right hand side, nipped in from

2740
02:13:06,320 --> 02:13:10,920
Speaker 4: this right channel. Prerah makes a run hold it by

2741
02:13:11,440 --> 02:13:13,960
Speaker 4: towards the Backsikey goes. It's too far. It's nudged off

2742
02:13:14,520 --> 02:13:16,680
Speaker 4: by your boa. It's gonna go all the way over

2743
02:13:16,680 --> 02:13:20,120
Speaker 4: the endline, just misses the far corner flag and it's

2744
02:13:20,160 --> 02:13:23,480
Speaker 4: gonna be a goal kick here in the seventy second minute,

2745
02:13:24,040 --> 02:13:28,960
Speaker 4: it's Minnesota nil, Sounders nil, and we're gonna get a

2746
02:13:29,120 --> 02:13:33,760
Speaker 4: change for the Minnesota. It's gonna be Kyle Duncan the outside.

2747
02:13:33,760 --> 02:13:36,160
Speaker 4: The right player comes off. He was the player that

2748
02:13:36,240 --> 02:13:41,000
Speaker 4: would throw in those long throws. It's like it's long

2749
02:13:41,080 --> 02:13:44,000
Speaker 4: one a coming on the field, so I'll be likeful

2750
02:13:44,040 --> 02:13:45,640
Speaker 4: like switch as well. Long one he has at time.

2751
02:13:45,680 --> 02:13:48,760
Speaker 4: He's played a little deeper, but his prayers is going

2752
02:13:48,840 --> 02:13:54,160
Speaker 4: forward fast electric play on that right hand side. Still

2753
02:13:54,280 --> 02:13:58,800
Speaker 4: no signs of Rodriguez, but he's warming up and we'll

2754
02:13:58,880 --> 02:14:02,200
Speaker 4: see his introduction short at some point in the game.

2755
02:14:02,280 --> 02:14:04,480
Speaker 4: As Ferrera knocks it forward, go straight to the chest

2756
02:14:04,520 --> 02:14:07,160
Speaker 4: of Romero, he's going to play it inside. It's good

2757
02:14:07,240 --> 02:14:09,000
Speaker 4: play by Roldan just to clip it out to the

2758
02:14:09,040 --> 02:14:18,360
Speaker 4: far side. It's hooked forward by Diaz. Sounders build again,

2759
02:14:19,480 --> 02:14:23,200
Speaker 4: so sound has made some moves. Three on now, four

2760
02:14:23,360 --> 02:14:25,280
Speaker 4: subs on the sound. As Afre tries to play it in,

2761
02:14:25,360 --> 02:14:27,440
Speaker 4: here comes Jordan Moore's first time to open up his leg,

2762
02:14:27,520 --> 02:14:30,520
Speaker 4: showing shows all that he's fully fit. Yese is. He

2763
02:14:30,560 --> 02:14:33,200
Speaker 4: gets a nick off Romero as he makes a run

2764
02:14:33,240 --> 02:14:35,840
Speaker 4: into the channel, winds a throw in and it's a

2765
02:14:35,920 --> 02:14:37,800
Speaker 4: chance for Kilani now to come over. We'll see if

2766
02:14:37,800 --> 02:14:40,280
Speaker 4: it'll be a long throw. It's not. It's gonna go

2767
02:14:40,360 --> 02:14:42,520
Speaker 4: short again to Lopez, but there's eleven players behind the

2768
02:14:42,560 --> 02:14:46,240
Speaker 4: ball for Minnesota. Both flips over the top by rolled

2769
02:14:46,360 --> 02:14:49,120
Speaker 4: On two Klan. He drilled in, blocked out by Mark

2770
02:14:49,160 --> 02:14:52,040
Speaker 4: and Nichen and picked up by chan Calai and then

2771
02:14:52,120 --> 02:14:57,240
Speaker 4: trap little Maradona away from pressure fans like that. Here

2772
02:14:57,320 --> 02:15:00,280
Speaker 4: comes Minnesota on the counter. Now we're Triante out to

2773
02:15:00,360 --> 02:15:03,400
Speaker 4: the right side and poor delivery in behind, and it's

2774
02:15:03,400 --> 02:15:06,800
Speaker 4: picked up easily by knew who as he just calms

2775
02:15:06,800 --> 02:15:08,840
Speaker 4: the game down, we've roth rocked out to the far

2776
02:15:09,000 --> 02:15:12,520
Speaker 4: side the left. Rosnak picks it up inside the center

2777
02:15:12,600 --> 02:15:14,480
Speaker 4: circle and is attacking half the field, rolls it out

2778
02:15:14,480 --> 02:15:17,920
Speaker 4: to his near side to Kilany for in lot give

2779
02:15:17,960 --> 02:15:19,720
Speaker 4: and go with Kolana. Can he get around market it

2780
02:15:19,840 --> 02:15:21,400
Speaker 4: she goes to the deck. Is a good challenge by

2781
02:15:22,280 --> 02:15:26,520
Speaker 4: the left wing back for Minnesota. You haven't seen too

2782
02:15:26,560 --> 02:15:28,040
Speaker 4: much of him in the attack and third field, which

2783
02:15:28,040 --> 02:15:29,920
Speaker 4: is good for the Sounders. Nine a sys on his

2784
02:15:30,040 --> 02:15:33,520
Speaker 4: campaign last year and here comes home. There's Rodriguez, the

2785
02:15:33,640 --> 02:15:36,440
Speaker 4: Columbian international, getting his shirt on, getting stripped, ready to go,

2786
02:15:36,560 --> 02:15:40,680
Speaker 4: get some last instructions from the staff before his introduction,

2787
02:15:40,800 --> 02:15:44,280
Speaker 4: and that gets the Minnesota Founds on their feet as

2788
02:15:44,400 --> 02:15:48,200
Speaker 4: roll Dan gets caught in possession. But combination of rolled

2789
02:15:48,320 --> 02:15:50,480
Speaker 4: On and Colany win it down the line. He goes

2790
02:15:50,520 --> 02:15:51,880
Speaker 4: towards can he say it?

2791
02:15:51,960 --> 02:15:52,240
Speaker 16: He can.

2792
02:15:52,360 --> 02:15:55,560
Speaker 4: It's a sliding challenge of these. Romero goes in. It's

2793
02:15:55,560 --> 02:15:59,040
Speaker 4: gonna be another corner kick for the Sounders, their seventh

2794
02:15:59,160 --> 02:16:00,000
Speaker 4: corner kick of the game.

2795
02:16:00,920 --> 02:16:02,120
Speaker 23: This is better for Seattle.

2796
02:16:02,440 --> 02:16:02,800
Speaker 4: I tell you.

2797
02:16:02,920 --> 02:16:05,120
Speaker 23: Ferrera comes in. He unlocks a lot of passes.

2798
02:16:05,160 --> 02:16:07,320
Speaker 22: We saw a little bit of that with a nicol

2799
02:16:07,400 --> 02:16:11,800
Speaker 22: but Ferrera really intentional about springing players open. We see

2800
02:16:11,880 --> 02:16:15,760
Speaker 22: Koloney getting inside now into the attacking half, being part

2801
02:16:15,760 --> 02:16:15,960
Speaker 22: of the.

2802
02:16:15,960 --> 02:16:19,440
Speaker 4: Play, or goes into Coloney clips it in. It's the

2803
02:16:19,720 --> 02:16:22,400
Speaker 4: challenge of Trianta's the home crowd like that block, but

2804
02:16:22,440 --> 02:16:28,240
Speaker 4: the Sounds retrieve it to Brunell. Poured it bore by Jackson,

2805
02:16:28,280 --> 02:16:30,760
Speaker 4: Rego's weaker left foot, but off the chests of Knew,

2806
02:16:30,760 --> 02:16:32,800
Speaker 4: who he goes back with his right foot, well played

2807
02:16:32,800 --> 02:16:35,160
Speaker 4: by Knew, who just cleaned things up well, kept as simple.

2808
02:16:35,680 --> 02:16:39,440
Speaker 4: Back to Andrew Thomas. It goes ventially is the antics

2809
02:16:39,480 --> 02:16:41,440
Speaker 4: of Andrew and some of those penalty shoots outs that

2810
02:16:42,760 --> 02:16:45,160
Speaker 4: you bet over the years, Maybe that's it. It wasn't,

2811
02:16:45,240 --> 02:16:48,560
Speaker 4: of course it was. Well, Saint Clair was just as

2812
02:16:48,560 --> 02:16:52,920
Speaker 4: bad and Claire was bad as well. Maybe a little

2813
02:16:52,920 --> 02:16:55,360
Speaker 4: bit of game management. Time management get into the final

2814
02:16:55,440 --> 02:16:59,039
Speaker 4: fifteen minutes here of the ninety Minnesota Neil Sounders nil

2815
02:16:59,440 --> 02:17:03,320
Speaker 4: Big West Conference game. Minnesota came into today's given fourteenth spot,

2816
02:17:03,720 --> 02:17:07,640
Speaker 4: poor start to their season with four points. Sounders we're

2817
02:17:07,640 --> 02:17:09,400
Speaker 4: a little bit higher than that, as they came in

2818
02:17:09,520 --> 02:17:11,400
Speaker 4: with nine points from three wins and a loss. The

2819
02:17:11,440 --> 02:17:13,640
Speaker 4: little given go by Jordan Marris, little nudget about by

2820
02:17:13,720 --> 02:17:17,840
Speaker 4: snyderby now it's easy foul giving up by Snyder top

2821
02:17:17,920 --> 02:17:22,119
Speaker 4: of their attacking box. And three changes for Minnesota. As

2822
02:17:22,160 --> 02:17:24,080
Speaker 4: I go down to my notes here and there's going

2823
02:17:24,160 --> 02:17:30,000
Speaker 4: to be dang Himez and I think Paddleford potentially, we'll

2824
02:17:30,040 --> 02:17:32,240
Speaker 4: see if that is the change that we'll make. And

2825
02:17:32,360 --> 02:17:35,320
Speaker 4: it comes the changes and onto the feet come the

2826
02:17:35,400 --> 02:17:41,720
Speaker 4: Minnesota player. So off comes SHANKI lay the Argentinian on

2827
02:17:41,920 --> 02:17:52,199
Speaker 4: comes Rodriguez, on comes DNG and Paddleford off comes Yoboa.

2828
02:17:52,440 --> 02:18:01,320
Speaker 4: Good introduction for the Colombian. And then Paddleford will make

2829
02:18:02,760 --> 02:18:05,680
Speaker 4: will come on, Romero will come off. Paddle first starts

2830
02:18:05,720 --> 02:18:08,280
Speaker 4: the last couple of games, it'll come on lightful light

2831
02:18:08,360 --> 02:18:12,400
Speaker 4: switch there as well. So we'll see what Minnesota do

2832
02:18:12,520 --> 02:18:15,160
Speaker 4: now with a couple of these new fresh sets of

2833
02:18:15,280 --> 02:18:19,520
Speaker 4: legs what Cameron Knowles has got tactically much of the same,

2834
02:18:19,680 --> 02:18:21,360
Speaker 4: or if the game will open up a little bit.

2835
02:18:21,440 --> 02:18:24,080
Speaker 4: They are playing at home, but these home fans are

2836
02:18:24,200 --> 02:18:27,760
Speaker 4: used to this kind of stagnant set up that Minnesota

2837
02:18:27,800 --> 02:18:29,480
Speaker 4: have had the last couple of years.

2838
02:18:31,200 --> 02:18:32,680
Speaker 23: Yeah, it's been a bit of a chess match.

2839
02:18:32,720 --> 02:18:34,920
Speaker 4: It's been fun. And now the sub's coming in and

2840
02:18:35,040 --> 02:18:36,840
Speaker 4: the crowd comes up in volume.

2841
02:18:36,760 --> 02:18:40,160
Speaker 22: Right right, So it's interesting to see each coach making

2842
02:18:40,240 --> 02:18:42,480
Speaker 22: their moves with their chess pieces and I like what

2843
02:18:42,600 --> 02:18:45,120
Speaker 22: Seattle's done and I like what Minnesota has done.

2844
02:18:45,240 --> 02:18:50,560
Speaker 23: So next fourteen minutes could be very entertaining or.

2845
02:18:50,600 --> 02:18:52,720
Speaker 4: Goes Entrances loses it. But as we mentioned, there's a

2846
02:18:52,720 --> 02:18:54,560
Speaker 4: two week break for the international break, but the Rave

2847
02:18:54,600 --> 02:18:56,640
Speaker 4: Queene back on the road to take on Houston Dynamo

2848
02:18:56,879 --> 02:19:01,080
Speaker 4: FC on Saturday, April fourth at five point thirty Pacific.

2849
02:19:01,360 --> 02:19:03,720
Speaker 4: Watch the match on the Apple TV app and listen

2850
02:19:03,760 --> 02:19:05,680
Speaker 4: on nine to fifty Kids, You're Am and l RA

2851
02:19:05,840 --> 02:19:09,240
Speaker 4: thirteen sixty am. The Provident Swedish premat show starts at

2852
02:19:09,320 --> 02:19:13,039
Speaker 4: five pm. As the ball gets hooked forward by calendar

2853
02:19:13,120 --> 02:19:16,560
Speaker 4: and the Minnesota goal as Nu gets a right foot

2854
02:19:16,600 --> 02:19:21,280
Speaker 4: on it, just wraps himself around Perea. So now two

2855
02:19:22,240 --> 02:19:25,520
Speaker 4: attacking South American players and Pere who's on the ball

2856
02:19:25,640 --> 02:19:29,440
Speaker 4: right now, and Jimez would see what his kind of

2857
02:19:29,600 --> 02:19:32,720
Speaker 4: level of fitness is has been the combination of fitness

2858
02:19:32,760 --> 02:19:35,400
Speaker 4: and visa issues that have prevented him getting on the field.

2859
02:19:36,879 --> 02:19:40,600
Speaker 4: Then he duration in these early parts of the year.

2860
02:19:40,640 --> 02:19:43,480
Speaker 4: Here's his first touch. He gets the ball, looking for

2861
02:19:43,560 --> 02:19:46,520
Speaker 4: the ball short, a good quick ball, and the crowd

2862
02:19:46,760 --> 02:19:48,600
Speaker 4: like that is wall trap plays it in, breaks the line.

2863
02:19:48,720 --> 02:19:51,640
Speaker 4: Tantas plays it in behind to DG trapped well by

2864
02:19:52,720 --> 02:19:56,080
Speaker 4: Jackson Reagan. As Andrew Thomas plays it in, Louie just

2865
02:19:56,160 --> 02:19:58,600
Speaker 4: waits for it for a split second. The almost got there,

2866
02:19:59,000 --> 02:20:00,840
Speaker 4: but it's cleaned up well. Other sound as they have

2867
02:20:00,879 --> 02:20:02,560
Speaker 4: the ball inside, there are an eighteen yard box and

2868
02:20:02,600 --> 02:20:04,160
Speaker 4: we'll build you.

2869
02:20:04,200 --> 02:20:06,200
Speaker 22: See that with Knew, who's similar to what we said

2870
02:20:06,200 --> 02:20:08,880
Speaker 22: about Jackson Reagan, just very comfortable on the ball, knows

2871
02:20:08,920 --> 02:20:11,720
Speaker 22: how to use his body, knows how to slow defenders down,

2872
02:20:12,760 --> 02:20:14,560
Speaker 22: doesn't give the ball away, ball.

2873
02:20:14,400 --> 02:20:16,240
Speaker 4: Over the top. Jordan Marris has it inside the eighteen

2874
02:20:16,280 --> 02:20:18,360
Speaker 4: yard box, cuts it balled. It's the top of the box.

2875
02:20:18,440 --> 02:20:24,000
Speaker 4: It's Paul Rothwrocker made the run, just ran past the ball.

2876
02:20:24,040 --> 02:20:25,560
Speaker 4: It was cut back towards the top of the eighteen

2877
02:20:25,640 --> 02:20:28,160
Speaker 4: yard box. No green shirts there, but good to see

2878
02:20:28,240 --> 02:20:31,440
Speaker 4: Jordan making those runs in behind. You know, when you

2879
02:20:31,480 --> 02:20:33,720
Speaker 4: got muscular injury, p of course, you know it's cold weather,

2880
02:20:33,800 --> 02:20:35,480
Speaker 4: it's you know, it takes a little while to get going,

2881
02:20:35,560 --> 02:20:37,760
Speaker 4: and quite a little bit of air of trepidation in

2882
02:20:37,800 --> 02:20:39,120
Speaker 4: the back of his mind as well, just to make

2883
02:20:39,120 --> 02:20:40,560
Speaker 4: sure he doesn't nick something there.

2884
02:20:40,760 --> 02:20:42,520
Speaker 22: Totally agree. I feel the same when he made the

2885
02:20:42,600 --> 02:20:45,280
Speaker 22: run under the corner. You're watching his mechanics and see

2886
02:20:45,320 --> 02:20:46,920
Speaker 22: if he's doing all right. You know, he's such an

2887
02:20:47,000 --> 02:20:50,800
Speaker 22: explosive player. Lately you think about the rolled ons. They're compact,

2888
02:20:51,240 --> 02:20:54,600
Speaker 22: they are quick, but they're not as explosive as Jordan.

2889
02:20:54,640 --> 02:20:58,119
Speaker 22: And with that explosion can come some injuries that especially

2890
02:20:58,160 --> 02:20:59,920
Speaker 22: as you get older, and especially if you're playing in

2891
02:21:00,480 --> 02:21:01,480
Speaker 22: thirty eight degree weather.

2892
02:21:01,840 --> 02:21:05,320
Speaker 4: YEP Final ten minutes here in Alliance Field, it's nil

2893
02:21:05,440 --> 02:21:09,120
Speaker 4: nil between Minnesota and the Sounders. Sounders another away trip.

2894
02:21:09,160 --> 02:21:12,080
Speaker 4: One more to go in MLS before they come out

2895
02:21:12,120 --> 02:21:15,800
Speaker 4: balling sites A great ball to Marcus. He clips it. Oh,

2896
02:21:15,959 --> 02:21:19,280
Speaker 4: it's a brilliant ball by bringing hi Metz. Try to

2897
02:21:19,320 --> 02:21:24,120
Speaker 4: find Mark Kinitch has got in behind, had a chance

2898
02:21:24,200 --> 02:21:26,959
Speaker 4: to think it over into the back of the net.

2899
02:21:27,040 --> 02:21:29,480
Speaker 4: The goal was gaping, couldn't get it over the top.

2900
02:21:29,520 --> 02:21:31,600
Speaker 4: It goes goal kicks Sounders nil nil.

2901
02:21:31,720 --> 02:21:34,800
Speaker 23: Well, it was a great ball, broke the Seattle defense.

2902
02:21:34,840 --> 02:21:38,680
Speaker 23: I'll tell you, I give Andrew Thomas a lot of

2903
02:21:38,760 --> 02:21:39,880
Speaker 23: credit on that.

2904
02:21:40,879 --> 02:21:43,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, did just enough as he spread his arms and legs.

2905
02:21:43,879 --> 02:21:49,439
Speaker 4: But it's a brilliant, brilliant ball by Rodriguez. Fabulous balling behind.

2906
02:21:49,840 --> 02:21:51,560
Speaker 23: Terrific ball. And then we didn't foul.

2907
02:21:51,600 --> 02:21:53,440
Speaker 22: I think it was kilany that he could have clipped

2908
02:21:53,480 --> 02:21:55,760
Speaker 22: him from behind, but he did very well to keep

2909
02:21:55,800 --> 02:21:57,119
Speaker 22: his legs out of tangling.

2910
02:21:58,440 --> 02:22:00,680
Speaker 23: And again I'll tell you Andrew was coming out so

2911
02:22:00,879 --> 02:22:02,800
Speaker 23: fast he forced.

2912
02:22:02,760 --> 02:22:05,920
Speaker 4: The ball over the crossbar with Resona now gets clip

2913
02:22:06,000 --> 02:22:09,039
Speaker 4: from behind. It has to be a foul. Nothing given

2914
02:22:09,120 --> 02:22:11,560
Speaker 4: by the referee. Referee's given so many soft things. Let's

2915
02:22:11,600 --> 02:22:14,840
Speaker 4: talk about Jackson Reagan's yellow card, and that was two

2916
02:22:14,920 --> 02:22:16,760
Speaker 4: yards away from the referee in the middle of the park.

2917
02:22:18,440 --> 02:22:22,280
Speaker 22: Yeah, that was a cub Yeah, yeah, yeah, especially when

2918
02:22:22,280 --> 02:22:24,160
Speaker 22: you compared to the Jackson Reagan yellow card.

2919
02:22:24,240 --> 02:22:24,400
Speaker 16: Yeah.

2920
02:22:24,959 --> 02:22:26,480
Speaker 22: Yeah, but I'll tell you what I'd love to hear

2921
02:22:26,520 --> 02:22:28,840
Speaker 22: what Tommy Ducher says about that with Andrew, because he

2922
02:22:28,959 --> 02:22:31,160
Speaker 22: came off the line so quick, got big, didn't go

2923
02:22:31,240 --> 02:22:31,959
Speaker 22: down too early.

2924
02:22:32,160 --> 02:22:35,000
Speaker 4: Peter Schmichael was brilliant at that. Just came out, just

2925
02:22:35,200 --> 02:22:38,480
Speaker 4: huge body, and it just narrowed that window of space

2926
02:22:39,120 --> 02:22:42,840
Speaker 4: for the four to find that gap. Andrew Thomas is

2927
02:22:43,440 --> 02:22:46,480
Speaker 4: as explosive as well off that line as anybody in

2928
02:22:46,640 --> 02:22:50,680
Speaker 4: MLS now Neil Noel inside the final ten minutes Minnesota

2929
02:22:51,000 --> 02:22:54,680
Speaker 4: Sounders two week break for the boys, not all of

2930
02:22:54,720 --> 02:22:57,160
Speaker 4: them rolled on, of course, goes on his international duties

2931
02:22:57,200 --> 02:23:01,760
Speaker 4: with the US Mussovsky with Northern Macedonian for that World

2932
02:23:01,840 --> 02:23:05,560
Speaker 4: Cup qualifier. That final playoff spots four spots from Europe

2933
02:23:06,240 --> 02:23:09,800
Speaker 4: still up for grabs. It comes to the Sounders now

2934
02:23:09,840 --> 02:23:13,560
Speaker 4: breaking lines with Ferrera in behind it goes almost finds

2935
02:23:13,600 --> 02:23:15,160
Speaker 4: the ball in behind Jordan Morice. He made a little

2936
02:23:15,200 --> 02:23:19,040
Speaker 4: running behind like Diaz and Duggan and Ferrera saw it

2937
02:23:19,320 --> 02:23:22,760
Speaker 4: almost found it was cleared by the Minnesota backlune over

2938
02:23:22,800 --> 02:23:25,480
Speaker 4: this near sideline and the sound is getting in quickly.

2939
02:23:25,520 --> 02:23:27,760
Speaker 4: Now the ball with Farrera on his foot, goes back

2940
02:23:27,800 --> 02:23:30,240
Speaker 4: to Jackson. Reagan fanning out to the left hand side

2941
02:23:30,400 --> 02:23:34,320
Speaker 4: is Rothrock. Snider Brunel has it, plays it to roth

2942
02:23:34,400 --> 02:23:36,320
Speaker 4: Or eighteen yards for the end line. Drops his left shoulder,

2943
02:23:36,320 --> 02:23:38,040
Speaker 4: comes to those right Whipson in low. He comes to

2944
02:23:38,080 --> 02:23:39,840
Speaker 4: Roussick inside the eight of yard box, strikes in the

2945
02:23:39,879 --> 02:23:43,160
Speaker 4: side netting. Well taken by Russneck inside the eighteen just

2946
02:23:43,240 --> 02:23:46,560
Speaker 4: brilliantly brought it down, spun on a dime, quick look

2947
02:23:46,600 --> 02:23:48,520
Speaker 4: shot to the near post, hits the side netting. It's

2948
02:23:48,560 --> 02:23:51,880
Speaker 4: a goalkick. It's nil nil, but the Sounders starting to

2949
02:23:51,920 --> 02:23:54,280
Speaker 4: find those little pockets of space in behind that back. Five.

2950
02:23:54,480 --> 02:23:57,480
Speaker 22: Yeah, that's a good cross from Rothrock and you are correct.

2951
02:23:58,480 --> 02:24:01,360
Speaker 22: Albert takes a great first tries to go near a post.

2952
02:24:01,879 --> 02:24:04,320
Speaker 22: Keeper has it covered. But this is better. We need

2953
02:24:04,400 --> 02:24:06,280
Speaker 22: our when we're getting our crosses in, we need to

2954
02:24:06,320 --> 02:24:08,320
Speaker 22: find the green shirts to connect with.

2955
02:24:09,959 --> 02:24:11,640
Speaker 4: It might be not there might not be any goals

2956
02:24:11,680 --> 02:24:15,840
Speaker 4: here today, but lots of goals around MLS in Yesay

2957
02:24:15,920 --> 02:24:19,600
Speaker 4: Nashville five all d O nil, Charlotte six Red Bulls

2958
02:24:20,200 --> 02:24:23,800
Speaker 4: one mentioned Dallas Houston was a four to three game

2959
02:24:24,480 --> 02:24:28,680
Speaker 4: Cincinnati Montreal four to three pauland playing against home against

2960
02:24:28,720 --> 02:24:32,560
Speaker 4: the Galaxy, of course, Galaxy twenty twenty four MLS champs,

2961
02:24:32,600 --> 02:24:38,240
Speaker 4: and we're poor, to say it lightly last year. Of

2962
02:24:38,360 --> 02:24:41,880
Speaker 4: course it's a couple of significant injuries continue to plague

2963
02:24:41,959 --> 02:24:47,160
Speaker 4: their squad, both turning quickly. Brilliant throw by Rodriguez finds

2964
02:24:47,200 --> 02:24:50,440
Speaker 4: Perea through the legs of rolled on it goes and yeah,

2965
02:24:50,560 --> 02:24:52,680
Speaker 4: got the initial advantage and the referee brings it back

2966
02:24:52,720 --> 02:24:55,640
Speaker 4: as he ran into a body of green shirts.

2967
02:24:56,800 --> 02:24:58,960
Speaker 23: Pere I picked up another four or five yards right

2968
02:24:59,040 --> 02:24:59,760
Speaker 23: closer to the goal.

2969
02:24:59,800 --> 02:25:01,960
Speaker 4: For Rodriguez has played one great ball in behind. But

2970
02:25:02,000 --> 02:25:03,560
Speaker 4: then he threw a ball in right in the middle

2971
02:25:03,560 --> 02:25:06,080
Speaker 4: of the park. But it comes Minnesotay. Trying to play

2972
02:25:06,080 --> 02:25:08,160
Speaker 4: it quickly. We'll get a bullet back and it's going

2973
02:25:08,240 --> 02:25:11,000
Speaker 4: to be rogue Rodriguez. It doesn't look quite as limber

2974
02:25:11,000 --> 02:25:12,760
Speaker 4: as he once did in his younger years, but.

2975
02:25:14,360 --> 02:25:14,600
Speaker 16: Some of it.

2976
02:25:14,640 --> 02:25:16,600
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter. When the mind works quickly as the

2977
02:25:16,640 --> 02:25:18,800
Speaker 4: ball goes in. Quality is there. Of course, ball gets

2978
02:25:18,840 --> 02:25:21,080
Speaker 4: hit up up the cross where it goes and we'll

2979
02:25:21,080 --> 02:25:23,280
Speaker 4: see it as a fingertip by Andrew. A combination of

2980
02:25:23,280 --> 02:25:26,160
Speaker 4: a finger tip. Maybe a deflected header is dang, I

2981
02:25:26,240 --> 02:25:29,240
Speaker 4: think for that floated in ball by Rodriguez, there's another

2982
02:25:29,320 --> 02:25:33,959
Speaker 4: good delivery from Rodriguez. So starting in these so it's

2983
02:25:34,040 --> 02:25:36,040
Speaker 4: ten minutes already with him being on the field. The

2984
02:25:36,160 --> 02:25:38,120
Speaker 4: quality he has with that left foot is he gets

2985
02:25:38,160 --> 02:25:40,200
Speaker 4: primed and ready to be fully matched for it. For

2986
02:25:40,240 --> 02:25:45,199
Speaker 4: the World Cup with his native Columbia team. We clipped

2987
02:25:45,280 --> 02:25:49,600
Speaker 4: him by Rodriguez, easily collected by Andrew, ball went out

2988
02:25:49,720 --> 02:25:52,360
Speaker 4: and then in lots of whip and curl because Andrew

2989
02:25:52,400 --> 02:25:55,199
Speaker 4: took the ball out just inside his six yard box.

2990
02:25:55,320 --> 02:26:01,720
Speaker 4: So floated in by Rodriguez, and here come the sound

2991
02:26:01,800 --> 02:26:04,120
Speaker 4: is now building out the back with rolled Don and

2992
02:26:04,200 --> 02:26:07,560
Speaker 4: Snyder Brunell, who ran Schmetzer has talked glowingly about in

2993
02:26:07,600 --> 02:26:11,279
Speaker 4: his performances of recent weeks. And we'll see Sonny Dotson

2994
02:26:11,360 --> 02:26:14,680
Speaker 4: of course is out with some concussion protocol work. And

2995
02:26:15,800 --> 02:26:18,080
Speaker 4: you know, as it is with all these types of injuries.

2996
02:26:18,360 --> 02:26:20,760
Speaker 4: Christoph Roldan being of course suffered through that a year

2997
02:26:20,840 --> 02:26:24,320
Speaker 4: or two ago. One step four, two steps back sometimes

2998
02:26:24,440 --> 02:26:27,080
Speaker 4: but sounders, of course, we'll get more the time he needs.

2999
02:26:27,440 --> 02:26:29,840
Speaker 4: Former Minnesota man made one hundred and seventy appearances for

3000
02:26:30,440 --> 02:26:34,360
Speaker 4: Minnesota United before coming back to the Pacific Northwest in

3001
02:26:34,400 --> 02:26:37,199
Speaker 4: the off season. A good bit of business by Craig

3002
02:26:37,360 --> 02:26:40,240
Speaker 4: y Bolshawn Henderson, Corey and the team.

3003
02:26:41,720 --> 02:26:45,960
Speaker 22: Snyder's impressive eighteen years old receives the ball, looks to

3004
02:26:46,000 --> 02:26:48,560
Speaker 22: go forward right away, turns very well in the midfield,

3005
02:26:49,440 --> 02:26:51,199
Speaker 22: even with players up his backside.

3006
02:26:51,240 --> 02:26:52,199
Speaker 23: So yep, he's a good.

3007
02:26:52,080 --> 02:26:55,520
Speaker 4: Addition, good technique, can just float out of pressure at times,

3008
02:26:55,760 --> 02:26:59,359
Speaker 4: just kind of bounces off things. And it's like Rothworks

3009
02:26:59,400 --> 02:27:02,360
Speaker 4: has floated in Brunel, float to the outside, left, right,

3010
02:27:02,440 --> 02:27:04,360
Speaker 4: now center the park is rolled on with the ball

3011
02:27:04,440 --> 02:27:07,440
Speaker 4: at his feet looking for options. Eleven men behind the

3012
02:27:07,520 --> 02:27:11,000
Speaker 4: ball for Minnesota. As a nil nil against the Sound

3013
02:27:11,000 --> 02:27:13,640
Speaker 4: as a result, that's going to give Cameron Knowles and

3014
02:27:13,720 --> 02:27:16,000
Speaker 4: his team some confidence. But as a home team, you'd

3015
02:27:16,120 --> 02:27:19,040
Speaker 4: think three points is to be vital in the manner

3016
02:27:19,080 --> 02:27:21,880
Speaker 4: in which they've started this season. I think Trounce, as

3017
02:27:21,920 --> 02:27:24,840
Speaker 4: we mentioned last week six nil against Vancouver, getting three

3018
02:27:24,879 --> 02:27:28,080
Speaker 4: points as vital as they sit in fourteenth spot in

3019
02:27:28,200 --> 02:27:31,120
Speaker 4: the standings coming into this weekend's games.

3020
02:27:32,320 --> 02:27:33,280
Speaker 23: It's been fun to see the.

3021
02:27:33,280 --> 02:27:37,160
Speaker 22: Addition of Ferrara and Rodriguez, both playmakers, both looking for

3022
02:27:37,480 --> 02:27:39,800
Speaker 22: probing passes that can open up a goal.

3023
02:27:39,959 --> 02:27:42,600
Speaker 4: And maybe that's what's Minnesota going to step in with.

3024
02:27:42,840 --> 02:27:44,920
Speaker 4: Is going to be a slightly varied formation where it

3025
02:27:45,000 --> 02:27:48,520
Speaker 4: allows both those players to play in de facto number

3026
02:27:48,600 --> 02:27:52,960
Speaker 4: ten roles behind Yo Boa. Of course, there is the

3027
02:27:53,440 --> 02:27:57,640
Speaker 4: Austrian international dominic fits that came in on big money,

3028
02:27:57,640 --> 02:28:01,400
Speaker 4: signing four and a half year deal. Injured or comes

3029
02:28:01,440 --> 02:28:04,600
Speaker 4: in ball bouncing around top of the box. Is Diaz

3030
02:28:04,720 --> 02:28:08,600
Speaker 4: clears the ball, well find Dang quickly in by Peree

3031
02:28:08,720 --> 02:28:11,000
Speaker 4: tries to find Rodriguez is trying to slice through the

3032
02:28:11,040 --> 02:28:13,360
Speaker 4: back line. Ball cut out, Morris has it out to

3033
02:28:13,440 --> 02:28:15,880
Speaker 4: the outside. Is Rothrock now left hand side of the

3034
02:28:15,920 --> 02:28:18,199
Speaker 4: eighteen yard box to his left foot, It goes clips

3035
02:28:18,240 --> 02:28:20,000
Speaker 4: towards the back stick. It's going to bounce through.

3036
02:28:20,000 --> 02:28:20,720
Speaker 2: It's gonna stay in.

3037
02:28:21,400 --> 02:28:23,600
Speaker 4: Just hits that white chalk in the end line, but

3038
02:28:23,680 --> 02:28:26,879
Speaker 4: stays in. It's not forward by market is for Minnesota

3039
02:28:27,040 --> 02:28:29,240
Speaker 4: down their left hand side. The Sounder is right picked

3040
02:28:29,280 --> 02:28:32,160
Speaker 4: up by Lopez. No pressure on the Sounders in possession

3041
02:28:32,200 --> 02:28:34,640
Speaker 4: as they work the ball through the midfield. Now with

3042
02:28:34,760 --> 02:28:36,880
Speaker 4: Ferrera on this near side, just pinched in from the

3043
02:28:36,959 --> 02:28:39,600
Speaker 4: right hand side, goes square loose ball giving away to

3044
02:28:39,720 --> 02:28:43,120
Speaker 4: Triantis and now prayer that's weak loose as well. Top

3045
02:28:43,160 --> 02:28:46,120
Speaker 4: of the boxes. Rolled on, dragged down but stays on

3046
02:28:46,200 --> 02:28:48,520
Speaker 4: his feet. Has rolled on rothrot to his left, gets

3047
02:28:48,560 --> 02:28:50,960
Speaker 4: the ball, cuts on his right foot looking for options,

3048
02:28:51,080 --> 02:28:53,200
Speaker 4: rolled on, has it top of the eighteen yard box,

3049
02:28:53,320 --> 02:28:55,280
Speaker 4: left of center, out to the left hand side to

3050
02:28:55,400 --> 02:28:57,960
Speaker 4: know where it goes floating a bit new headed clear

3051
02:28:58,000 --> 02:29:01,160
Speaker 4: by dug and then clip forward by per finds dang

3052
02:29:01,200 --> 02:29:02,720
Speaker 4: and this is why the crowd GWT on their feet

3053
02:29:02,879 --> 02:29:07,720
Speaker 4: and get some noises. Minnesota go in transition. Now only

3054
02:29:07,800 --> 02:29:10,040
Speaker 4: one option forward is the left wing back marketing it

3055
02:29:10,120 --> 02:29:12,520
Speaker 4: shays Pereer has it now left hand side, is going

3056
02:29:12,560 --> 02:29:15,160
Speaker 4: to clip it to the far side to Rodriguez and

3057
02:29:15,240 --> 02:29:17,880
Speaker 4: it doesn't get there. Knew who read it all day long?

3058
02:29:17,959 --> 02:29:20,359
Speaker 4: Heads it clear. Minnesota build from the back.

3059
02:29:21,160 --> 02:29:22,720
Speaker 23: Danny Week. I don't know how much Stoppagstein.

3060
02:29:22,760 --> 02:29:25,080
Speaker 22: We had a lot of subs, but not many injuries

3061
02:29:25,200 --> 02:29:28,240
Speaker 22: or cards, so it'll be interesting on stoppage time.

3062
02:29:28,400 --> 02:29:31,119
Speaker 23: I feel as there's a goal in this game for Seattle.

3063
02:29:30,840 --> 02:29:35,480
Speaker 4: Yep nil nil Minnesota Sounders. Western Conference matchup replay of

3064
02:29:35,560 --> 02:29:39,560
Speaker 4: that playoff. Of course, last year the Sounders lost here

3065
02:29:39,640 --> 02:29:41,720
Speaker 4: in penalties. But Boror gets whipped in. Now takes the

3066
02:29:41,760 --> 02:29:44,520
Speaker 4: deflection off new who stood with his hands behind his back,

3067
02:29:44,560 --> 02:29:46,840
Speaker 4: which is the way that defenders seem to defend these days,

3068
02:29:47,360 --> 02:29:49,119
Speaker 4: so it doesn't come off his arm, doesn't get a handball,

3069
02:29:49,120 --> 02:29:51,560
Speaker 4: but it's gonna be a corner kick. Minnesota player Marketing

3070
02:29:51,600 --> 02:29:54,440
Speaker 4: itches on the deck and he's gonna get pulled up.

3071
02:29:55,320 --> 02:29:58,200
Speaker 4: Two minutes to go of the ninety nil nil and

3072
02:29:58,280 --> 02:30:05,600
Speaker 4: this score updeds presented by Providence, Swedish. The referee just

3073
02:30:05,680 --> 02:30:09,920
Speaker 4: having a little word ma. She is just hobbling away.

3074
02:30:10,000 --> 02:30:13,800
Speaker 4: Still just got a little knock. Scarves waving, which is

3075
02:30:13,840 --> 02:30:19,560
Speaker 4: tradition here for set pieces. Good crowd again here packed

3076
02:30:19,600 --> 02:30:22,800
Speaker 4: house as always. It as a like Saint Louis. It's

3077
02:30:22,840 --> 02:30:29,240
Speaker 4: one of those hotbeds in the Midwest of soccer. Sounders

3078
02:30:29,280 --> 02:30:31,320
Speaker 4: have to defend. This is the side where the sound

3079
02:30:31,360 --> 02:30:35,680
Speaker 4: has conceded in the playoffs in crosses from this side.

3080
02:30:35,720 --> 02:30:38,600
Speaker 4: As the ball goes in and it's headed up by Rodriguez,

3081
02:30:38,640 --> 02:30:41,320
Speaker 4: brought down, well play Ferrara and nice and calm with

3082
02:30:41,400 --> 02:30:43,080
Speaker 4: his left for Hees knocks it down the line and

3083
02:30:43,200 --> 02:30:46,600
Speaker 4: out of bounds on the far side. Well, the superior

3084
02:30:46,640 --> 02:30:49,680
Speaker 4: game meets superior taste. Grab a michelob Ultra the superior

3085
02:30:49,800 --> 02:30:52,720
Speaker 4: light beer as you cheer your team on michelob Ulture,

3087
02:30:56,840 --> 02:30:59,960
Speaker 4: final minute of the ninety nil nil and Pete World.

3088
02:31:00,040 --> 02:31:03,520
Speaker 4: Will Brian be satisfied so far in the performance or

3089
02:31:04,040 --> 02:31:05,760
Speaker 4: we'll get you in a second? Simple ball over the top?

3090
02:31:05,840 --> 02:31:07,879
Speaker 4: It comes af to Thomas. Ball over the top, there's

3091
02:31:07,959 --> 02:31:10,240
Speaker 4: Lopez did clar the ball of the line again he can.

3092
02:31:11,400 --> 02:31:13,440
Speaker 4: It was a simple ball over the top. It was

3093
02:31:13,520 --> 02:31:16,879
Speaker 4: a brilliant play by Lopez. He did it last week

3094
02:31:17,160 --> 02:31:19,280
Speaker 4: against San Jose when he hug the ball off the

3095
02:31:19,360 --> 02:31:22,320
Speaker 4: line with his left foot to deny a certain goal.

3096
02:31:22,959 --> 02:31:25,600
Speaker 4: This time it was root one football. Simple ball over

3097
02:31:25,640 --> 02:31:28,280
Speaker 4: the top caught the Sounders off guard. Lopez did his job,

3098
02:31:28,400 --> 02:31:30,560
Speaker 4: tracked the run well. As a ball got looped over

3099
02:31:30,560 --> 02:31:32,039
Speaker 4: Andrew Thomas, who came off his line.

3100
02:31:32,400 --> 02:31:36,520
Speaker 22: Lopez was there to clean things up. You never give

3101
02:31:36,600 --> 02:31:38,200
Speaker 22: up on the ball. He's done a great job two

3102
02:31:38,280 --> 02:31:38,920
Speaker 22: times in a row.

3103
02:31:39,680 --> 02:31:42,280
Speaker 4: Cornerck it quickly. Rodriguez has it Whipson him his left foot.

3104
02:31:42,280 --> 02:31:44,520
Speaker 4: Good delivery again, ball bounced around inside the sex and

3105
02:31:44,640 --> 02:31:49,480
Speaker 4: cleared by Snyder Brunell this time four minutes of added

3106
02:31:49,600 --> 02:31:54,240
Speaker 4: time and a quality again by Rodriguez is just catching

3107
02:31:54,320 --> 02:31:56,480
Speaker 4: out the sound as somewhat. It's just delivery in the

3108
02:31:56,560 --> 02:32:01,200
Speaker 4: right spots. Hinn is coming on number thirty. The French

3109
02:32:01,280 --> 02:32:06,440
Speaker 4: player Danny Aska TranSys off twenty five. You ask if

3110
02:32:06,480 --> 02:32:08,640
Speaker 4: Brian will be happy with us even the way the

3111
02:32:08,800 --> 02:32:11,720
Speaker 4: game went. I think he'll take the point.

3112
02:32:11,760 --> 02:32:14,480
Speaker 22: As Chance said at halftime, getting a point in this

3113
02:32:14,640 --> 02:32:17,000
Speaker 22: game's not terrible on the road.

3114
02:32:17,120 --> 02:32:19,200
Speaker 23: We want to win everything. Seattle has done a lot

3115
02:32:19,240 --> 02:32:19,800
Speaker 23: of that this year.

3116
02:32:19,879 --> 02:32:21,680
Speaker 22: But if you said we were going to have six

3117
02:32:21,840 --> 02:32:23,800
Speaker 22: or seven games with one last one tie, I think

3118
02:32:23,840 --> 02:32:25,959
Speaker 22: they take that start the season.

3119
02:32:26,120 --> 02:32:28,000
Speaker 4: I think it's Paddleford with the throw in here far

3120
02:32:28,160 --> 02:32:30,800
Speaker 4: side their rights. He launches a hell of a throw

3121
02:32:31,040 --> 02:32:34,840
Speaker 4: towards the corner of the six yard box. Roldan does

3122
02:32:34,879 --> 02:32:36,640
Speaker 4: a good job just heads it clear. On the second

3123
02:32:36,680 --> 02:32:40,120
Speaker 4: attemp is going to be pulled up and pulled around

3124
02:32:40,200 --> 02:32:43,720
Speaker 4: as Roldan has his arms inside against his chest. It

3125
02:32:43,800 --> 02:32:45,680
Speaker 4: deflects it off rolled on. There's a call for the

3126
02:32:45,760 --> 02:32:47,760
Speaker 4: hand ball from the home crowd. Nothing to give him

3127
02:32:47,760 --> 02:32:50,400
Speaker 4: by the referee. Ball inside Roldon ask to be careful

3128
02:32:50,480 --> 02:32:54,360
Speaker 4: or hands in the back Danju Jenny stays on his feet,

3129
02:32:54,400 --> 02:32:59,200
Speaker 4: ball goes in to ds Paddleford has it. This time

3130
02:32:59,240 --> 02:33:04,640
Speaker 4: it's to Rodrie plays its square to Rill, Trap, overlap

3131
02:33:04,720 --> 02:33:06,959
Speaker 4: and run by. Trap gets the ball back towards the endline.

3132
02:33:06,959 --> 02:33:09,520
Speaker 4: He goes clipped in with his right foot hit cleared

3133
02:33:09,600 --> 02:33:13,640
Speaker 4: by knew who Ninety seconds in of the four minutes,

3134
02:33:15,040 --> 02:33:18,320
Speaker 4: Sounders defending now top of their eighteen yard box. Minnesota

3135
02:33:18,320 --> 02:33:23,400
Speaker 4: are getting the last flow of play here as a

3136
02:33:23,440 --> 02:33:25,720
Speaker 4: flicker around the corner by Peree on the far side

3137
02:33:25,800 --> 02:33:28,640
Speaker 4: doesn't stay in bounds. He goes over the far sideline

3138
02:33:28,720 --> 02:33:31,680
Speaker 4: for a throw and without the Sounders all have the

3139
02:33:31,800 --> 02:33:35,280
Speaker 4: ball in their hands. Two minutes to go of the

3140
02:33:35,440 --> 02:33:39,080
Speaker 4: four and This copyrighted audio cast of Major League Soccer

3143
02:33:45,640 --> 02:33:49,000
Speaker 4: clean sheets out of his first four games. He's about

3144
02:33:49,000 --> 02:33:51,320
Speaker 4: two minutes away from getting his fourth clean sheet out

3145
02:33:51,360 --> 02:33:54,560
Speaker 4: of fives. A brilliant start by Andrew made a great

3146
02:33:54,600 --> 02:33:57,160
Speaker 4: save in the first half, much quieter second half for him,

3147
02:33:59,000 --> 02:34:00,560
Speaker 4: but he came off his line and had to be

3148
02:34:00,640 --> 02:34:03,040
Speaker 4: bailed out somewhat by Lopez and his back four. As

3149
02:34:03,080 --> 02:34:05,000
Speaker 4: the all goes to Andrew's going to launch it long,

3150
02:34:05,080 --> 02:34:07,400
Speaker 4: it's deflected. To me that a couple of seconds longer

3151
02:34:07,480 --> 02:34:09,640
Speaker 4: then maybe should have it deflects off, Dan goes over

3152
02:34:10,040 --> 02:34:11,520
Speaker 4: the end line. It's going to be a goal kick.

3153
02:34:11,560 --> 02:34:17,240
Speaker 4: The sound will take that. So look at the Sounders

3154
02:34:17,280 --> 02:34:20,480
Speaker 4: and their stats. Eleven shots on the in the game.

3155
02:34:20,600 --> 02:34:23,640
Speaker 4: Two of those shots are on target. They had sixty

3156
02:34:23,680 --> 02:34:29,800
Speaker 4: five percent possession against Minnesota's thirty five, So Minnesota dropping

3157
02:34:29,879 --> 02:34:33,200
Speaker 4: again below that forty percent threshold, the average of their

3158
02:34:33,879 --> 02:34:36,160
Speaker 4: possession count last year the lowest MLS hissue. But can

3159
02:34:36,200 --> 02:34:39,640
Speaker 4: the Sounders get an opportunity towards these final minutes. So

3160
02:34:39,720 --> 02:34:41,600
Speaker 4: here comes Rothrock clips it in well to the back

3161
02:34:41,720 --> 02:34:43,880
Speaker 4: stick or bounced the way through to long one. He

3162
02:34:43,959 --> 02:34:48,359
Speaker 4: brings it down, drops it short and Minnesota build confidently

3163
02:34:48,400 --> 02:34:51,240
Speaker 4: out of the back. Sounders in their evergreen shirts taking

3164
02:34:51,280 --> 02:34:53,720
Speaker 4: the goal to our right. Pressing now try to find

3165
02:34:54,320 --> 02:34:58,320
Speaker 4: potential winner in this final minute of the game. And

3166
02:34:58,480 --> 02:35:01,800
Speaker 4: here comes now a cross halfway line left of center.

3167
02:35:01,920 --> 02:35:04,160
Speaker 4: Quick quick ball into the middle. He sees those plays

3168
02:35:04,200 --> 02:35:06,720
Speaker 4: so quickly it comes to Marrie to help. Good challenge

3169
02:35:06,760 --> 02:35:10,320
Speaker 4: by Reagan is Dan goes down far too easily. As

3170
02:35:10,320 --> 02:35:13,240
Speaker 4: the ball gets hooked forward, Paddleford cleans things up with

3171
02:35:13,360 --> 02:35:15,600
Speaker 4: his head. Ball bounces in the middle of the park

3172
02:35:15,720 --> 02:35:19,120
Speaker 4: center circle, goes out to Diaz. Now the ball keeps

3173
02:35:19,160 --> 02:35:22,000
Speaker 4: going to Perea inside the final thirty seconds for four

3174
02:35:22,040 --> 02:35:25,040
Speaker 4: minutes about a time. Here comes Rodriguez, good quick ball inside,

3175
02:35:25,080 --> 02:35:27,440
Speaker 4: give and go plays the ball back to Ding out

3176
02:35:27,440 --> 02:35:29,000
Speaker 4: to the right hand side. It goes to Perea with

3177
02:35:29,080 --> 02:35:31,560
Speaker 4: his left foot down the line, it goes along one

3178
02:35:31,680 --> 02:35:35,280
Speaker 4: it clips it in ball behind his back. Sorry, hands

3179
02:35:35,320 --> 02:35:38,240
Speaker 4: behind his Backers should say, by knew who and maybe

3180
02:35:38,280 --> 02:35:41,400
Speaker 4: he's to stay back now with defending a clean sheet

3181
02:35:41,440 --> 02:35:45,080
Speaker 4: in a point and there's the referees Wissel So good

3182
02:35:45,240 --> 02:35:48,240
Speaker 4: solid road performance by the Sounders. They withstood some pressure

3183
02:35:48,760 --> 02:35:51,360
Speaker 4: but all in all defended very very well. Andrew Thomas

3184
02:35:51,760 --> 02:35:54,279
Speaker 4: made a big save in the first half when needed

3185
02:35:54,280 --> 02:35:57,240
Speaker 4: and when called upon. But for the Sounders they dominate

3186
02:35:57,320 --> 02:35:59,959
Speaker 4: the possession. They dominated playing the attacking third of the field.

3187
02:36:00,640 --> 02:36:03,600
Speaker 4: They come away with a fourth clean sheet out of

3188
02:36:03,680 --> 02:36:07,000
Speaker 4: five MLS games, and they get a point on the

3189
02:36:07,080 --> 02:36:11,480
Speaker 4: road one more MLS game before they head home, and

3190
02:36:11,600 --> 02:36:14,879
Speaker 4: then in between those two games from the eighth of April,

3191
02:36:15,120 --> 02:36:16,960
Speaker 4: of course, they got back on the road for the

3192
02:36:17,080 --> 02:36:21,720
Speaker 4: eighth straight away game away from lumin Field against t Gress.

3193
02:36:21,760 --> 02:36:23,800
Speaker 2: But pee Field, your final thoughts of this game, Well,

3194
02:36:23,879 --> 02:36:24,600
Speaker 2: we'll take the point.

3195
02:36:24,800 --> 02:36:27,080
Speaker 22: I think coming into this game, we had high expectations

3196
02:36:27,120 --> 02:36:29,720
Speaker 22: that we could get three based on where Minnesota was

3197
02:36:29,760 --> 02:36:32,879
Speaker 22: at in the table, based on their six nothing lost.

3198
02:36:32,920 --> 02:36:34,520
Speaker 22: But I think the way the game went, it was

3199
02:36:34,560 --> 02:36:38,360
Speaker 22: a cagy game, back and forth. You know, Seattle goes

3200
02:36:38,480 --> 02:36:40,000
Speaker 22: on the road to play at a tough.

3201
02:36:39,840 --> 02:36:40,720
Speaker 23: Place in Minnesota.

3202
02:36:40,800 --> 02:36:44,520
Speaker 22: Minnesota is clinging for everything they've got, Cameron Knowle's their coaches,

3203
02:36:45,040 --> 02:36:47,480
Speaker 22: you know, hoping that they can get something like this.

3204
02:36:47,760 --> 02:36:50,280
Speaker 23: So I'll take the point. I think it's one of

3205
02:36:50,320 --> 02:36:54,520
Speaker 23: those that Andrew Thomas did come up big Lopez.

3206
02:36:54,600 --> 02:36:57,440
Speaker 22: They had a chance. Seattle had its chances as well.

3207
02:36:57,480 --> 02:36:59,080
Speaker 22: But I think it's honestly, I think it's a bit

3208
02:36:59,080 --> 02:37:01,080
Speaker 22: of a fair result. But I like the subs that

3209
02:37:01,160 --> 02:37:03,640
Speaker 22: we brought in and we get it. You know, seven

3210
02:37:03,680 --> 02:37:04,039
Speaker 22: games in.

3211
02:37:04,120 --> 02:37:07,280
Speaker 23: Danny one last one die. Not not that all on

3212
02:37:07,400 --> 02:37:08,920
Speaker 23: the road except the one.

3213
02:37:09,120 --> 02:37:11,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's been a big, big couple of weeks for

3214
02:37:11,040 --> 02:37:14,080
Speaker 4: the Sounders. Four straight wins, two against Vancouver and Conker

3215
02:37:14,160 --> 02:37:16,640
Speaker 4: caf one against St. Louis, one against San Jose on

3216
02:37:16,720 --> 02:37:18,520
Speaker 4: the road again to the place that they lost in

3217
02:37:18,600 --> 02:37:22,120
Speaker 4: the playoffs just a handful of months ago, and that

3218
02:37:22,240 --> 02:37:26,080
Speaker 4: painful penalty shootout with the lost seven to six. They

3219
02:37:26,160 --> 02:37:29,440
Speaker 4: do come here to Alliancefield and get a hard earned

3220
02:37:29,480 --> 02:37:32,720
