Hopefully not gonna 38 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 2: be too delayed tonight, but Pete This is a situation 39 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 2: right now where clearly the players right now is sitting 40 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,959 Speaker 2: in the locker room and you're underneath this delay. You 41 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 2: don't know when you're gonna kick off, but you just 42 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: got to stay I suppose as warm as you can 43 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: right now. 44 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's one of those things that you deal with it. 45 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 4: We've had to deal with it when I was coaching 46 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 4: as well, and you just tell the players, hey, it's 47 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 4: gonna be a little bit longer than nice thing for 48 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 4: them is that they probably haven't done too much of 49 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 4: their warm up, right, so go back in the locker room, 50 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 4: chill and frankly, as coaches, you kind of leave them 51 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 4: to their own because this is a pretty mature team, 52 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 4: and kind of stay out of their way because you 53 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 4: can overtalk in these situations. So you just make it 54 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 4: as simple and smooth as possible and say, hey, we'll 55 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 4: keep you posted. As soon as we hear things, we'll 56 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 4: pass those along. We've got a very veteran team in 57 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 4: that locker room, not just the first to let but 58 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,359 Speaker 4: the guys on the bench as well, so I don't 59 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 4: think it's a big problem, and I think it's something 60 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 4: they've dealt with before. 61 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 2: Well, you are listening to the Provident Swedish premat show. 62 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 2: Of course, Providence Swedish official healthcare partner of Seattle Sounders. 63 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 2: FC Well also mention that tonight's match is presented by 64 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: the Western Washington Toyota Dealers, and Pete is we kind 65 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,680 Speaker 2: of begin this broadcast tonight and we begin the prep 66 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 2: for this game. We do kind of get a moment 67 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 2: to breathe in this international break and kind of look 68 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: back in what has been, you know, a think a 69 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 2: busy start to the season for your Sounders. They accelerated 70 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 2: forward thanks to their League's Cup victory into the next 71 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 2: round of CONCACAFFT Champions Cup. Not League anymore, it's now 72 00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: CONKACAFFT Champions Cup. And with that event, the Sounders in 73 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 2: their first round did away with the Vancouver why Caps. 74 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 2: They you know, swept away on pretty easily, a three 75 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 2: to nothing win up in Vancouver, and then a two 76 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 2: to one win in Spokane to win five to one 77 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 2: on aggregate, and then an MLS action. Pete, this team 78 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 2: has just been fantastic three to one in one, entered 79 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: the weekend fifth place in the Western Conference. They've only 80 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 2: given up two goals. I think it's fair to say 81 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 2: that for Brian Schmitzer right now, pretty darn good start 82 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 2: to twenty twenty six. 83 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 4: I think he's very pleased, especially everything being on the 84 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 4: road minus the first game here at Lumen. So you know, 85 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 4: we've had sluggish starts in the past with the Sounders. 86 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 4: They talked about, hey, let's get out before the World 87 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 4: Cup break, let's get out and stay near the top 88 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 4: of the table. At the top of the table has 89 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 4: been very good with La San Diego, San Jose, you know, 90 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 4: in Seattle's you know, in fifth place right now. So 91 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 4: the West has come out guns of blazing, right and 92 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 4: it's been impressive to me how the Sounders have done 93 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 4: to be three to one and one at this moment 94 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 4: and have all the shutouts that they have is have 95 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 4: only given up the two goals in the in the 96 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 4: in the one game. So Andrew has done a great 97 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 4: job in goal, Andrew Thomas, and they're off to a 98 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,320 Speaker 4: really good start. And the thumping of Vancouver at Vancouver 99 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 4: and then going to play at Spokane. They're taking care 100 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 4: of business in a really good fashion. They've had to 101 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 4: have a lot of changes, which you know, we talked 102 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 4: with coach this morning and Stevie said, talked about the 103 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 4: back line. We've had guys come in and go out 104 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 4: and still get shutouts. So they're in a pretty darn 105 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 4: good spot. Tough night tonight, tough game today at Houston, 106 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 4: but I like where they've started. 107 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 2: The big news yesterday was the new signing for the 108 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 2: Sounders and they've made a lot of signings of people 109 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 2: kids who've comeing up through Tacoma Defiance And the latest 110 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: big signing this last week yesterday was Peter Kingston.

He's a twenty 112 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: one year twenty four year old midfielder from Tuckwilla. He 113 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 2: joined the Sounders Academy back in twenty fifteen, long before 114 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 2: you coached him. Then he went to Seattle University, played 115 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 2: under Pete from twenty twenty to twenty twenty three, went 116 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,080 Speaker 2: to the University of Washington, played under Jamie clark in 117 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 2: in twenty four.

I imagine that was a pretty cool 125 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 2: piece of news that you got to see come down. 126 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 5: Yeah. 127 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 4: I was really happy for him. It's a good story. 128 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 4: There's a lot of good stories in this team of 129 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 4: local kids doing well and working their way up to 130 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 4: the top. And I've said this before on the broadcast one. 131 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 4: I think we were the only ones who recruited him 132 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 4: at Seattle You, right, And I give Nate Dllacon, the 133 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 4: current coach, a lot of credit on that because he 134 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 4: saw him and figured out how good he was. And 135 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 4: I remember Peter being out of Seattle You game after 136 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 4: a game saying hey, I'm coming to Seattle You next year. 137 00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,039 Speaker 4: And I was thrilled about that. The thing I like 138 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 4: I love about it is, you know, when he was 139 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 4: with the Academy, he took and again I've said this before, 140 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 4: but it's a good story. He took. He would come 141 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 4: to the Academy practice, he'd be late, and the academy 142 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 4: staff would be yelling at him for being late, and 143 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 4: he never made any excuse, But the reality is he 144 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 4: was taking the bus from some amish to downtown Seattle, 145 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 4: Seattle to Starfire and getting off the bus, and sometimes 146 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 4: the bus was late. They caught him coming off a 147 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 4: bus and they were saying, have you been doing this 148 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 4: the whole time? And he said yeah, and he never 149 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 4: made an excuse, which is noble, right, And so he's 150 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 4: worked really hard to get where he is. He's a 151 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 4: very good student. When he came into Seattle, you he 152 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 4: learned to be a good student. And when he went 153 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 4: to the U dub he excelled there. And he's got 154 00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 4: two children. He had a child when he was playing 155 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 4: twenty four years old. Yea, yeah, yeah, he's got two 156 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 4: kids and they're great. So he's got a little girl 157 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 4: who was his first one, the little boy. So I'm 158 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 4: happy for him and this he's the kind of kid, 159 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 4: you know. I text him when I saw the news 160 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 4: and said, go talk to the rolled Ons, go talk 161 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 4: to Rothrock, go talk to Reagan, because those guys they've 162 00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 4: set a bar and a template on how it's supposed 163 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 4: to be.

That was kind of cool hearing 186 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 2: that because you know that there are so many Seattle Sounders. 187 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,240 Speaker 2: I mean, we look at the lineup today and you 188 00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 2: have know I mean just the starting lineup.

But Pete for another kid like Peter 197 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 2: king Peter Kingston from the area to here talk about 198 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:38,480 Speaker 2: that dream. 199 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 3: It was it was really cool. 200 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 2: And it's hard not to get emotional when you hear 201 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 2: a very mature young man talk about how this is 202 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 2: a dream come true. 203 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, and he's Brian Schmetzer's kind of guy, and he's 204 00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 4: a Seattle Sounder kind of guy, and so it is 205 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 4: wonderful to have a club. Mean, I'll watch the Toronto 206 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 4: game today, Toronto, Colorado, and the crowd was not good 207 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 4: and I was disappointed to see that. And you look 208 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 4: at what we're getting on attendance, but we're also looking at, 209 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 4: you know, the way they have built this team by 210 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 4: developing talent. And then you go back to the Defiance, 211 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 4: go back to the academy. Those guys deserve a lot 212 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 4: of credit because they get him a mindset that the 213 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 4: first team has so that when they come to the 214 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 4: first team it's not overwhelming. And and yeah, I saw 215 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 4: that interview as well, and I was really proud of him. 216 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 4: But he's sincere. You know, he's not he's not saying 217 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 4: all the right things. You know, you're supposed to say this, 218 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:33,520 Speaker 4: You're supposed to say that that was from the heart, 219 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 4: and you know, he wanted everybody felt. I remember talking 220 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 4: to Tommy Ducherp before the season started and he just said, hey, 221 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,600 Speaker 4: we got to help We got to get this kid 222 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 4: signed because we got to help him. He needs he 223 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 4: needs to be under a pro contract. But there was 224 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 4: there's things you have to do in order to make 225 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 4: room for a twenty four year old, right. You can't 226 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 4: just add him to the roster without making any kind 227 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 4: of changes. And so it took a little bit more time. 228 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 4: And every time I chatted with him, he was like, 229 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 4: it's good. I'm pining, I'll be ready and I want 230 00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 4: to I want to get my chance, and I know 231 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 4: I'm going to do it. And he was confident. He 232 00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 4: wasn't anxious, and he wasn't pointing fingers, and he wasn't 233 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 4: saying they're, you know, taking advantage of me or any 234 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 4: of that kind of stuff. And so I'm excited for 235 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 4: him and and for his family. And it's a great one, 236 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 4: you know. I said this, uh when when Ovid went 237 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 4: to uh Madrid, I said, hey, this is I said 238 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 4: to cam Weaver, who's got a young son, this is 239 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 4: great for your kid, right, who's his kid's pretty good? 240 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 4: And and Kim's uh, you know, Jean the gene pool 241 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 4: at cam Weaver and Bastioni's mother bring her pretty darn good. 242 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 4: And and I just said that that just opens things up, 243 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 4: you know. And and this kid's like eleven years old, right, 244 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 4: but he's he's showing signs of being very good. So 245 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 4: the point is is that young kids are looking at 246 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,439 Speaker 4: the Sounders as a way to make their career right, 247 00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 4: and they get their opportunity and keep going.

They're on the field right now, 334 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 2: So hopefully it's not too long of a delay and 335 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 2: this match can kick off down there at Shell Energy Stadium, 336 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 2: Seventy five degrees scheduled for kickoff, with a ninety percent humidity. 337 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 2: We can see that it's heavy rain and right now 338 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: actually we see on our monitor at this moment you're 339 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 2: Seattle Sounders there. All the players are out there running 340 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 2: to the left side of the field and they will 341 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,640 Speaker 2: be warming up. So that is very good news for 342 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 2: this match kicking off not too long after the scheduled 343 00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 2: five point forty Pacific time kickoff. Really quick, before we 344 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 2: get to the starting lineup for tonight, we'll dive into 345 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 2: the Providence Swedish team health report. A lot of players 346 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: on this and there is a new one. We'll get 347 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,800 Speaker 2: to the ones that are the injuries that have had 348 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,880 Speaker 2: been going on for a while now. Jam Argomez Andrade 349 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:06,119 Speaker 2: he had a hamstring strain against Saint Louis on March seventh. 350 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,479 Speaker 2: He was out about eight weeks from that injury date, 351 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,400 Speaker 2: so about four weeks remaining there on the hamstring strain 352 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 2: for yam Aargomez and Rode our great center back pedro 353 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: De Lvega, of course, our twenty five year old winger 354 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 2: from Argentina. He had that broken kneecap on Decision Day 355 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 2: of last year in New York City. 356 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 3: He will be out right until around the World Cup break. 357 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,679 Speaker 2: According to Brian Schmitzer, Ryan Sailor, which is a new 358 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 2: center back to this team from Colorado. From Colorado originally 359 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: he's played with a number of years, both with the 360 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 2: University of Washington and with Inner Miami. He has a 361 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 2: knee injury. Has not participated at all this season so far. 362 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 2: Kim Ki Hee he's still dealing with a calf injury 363 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 2: that he reaggravated recently. He has not played in twenty 364 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 2: twenty six so far, after appearing in nineteen. 365 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 3: Games last year. 366 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 2: Stuart Hawkins, young center back from Fox Island here in Washington. 367 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 2: He has a quad injury. He's also not appeared in 368 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,120 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six. I played four matches in twenty twenty 369 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 2: five as well, and then the new one Pete. And 370 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 2: before we get to the starting lineup, we can talk 371 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 2: about this for just a moment. Nikolap at Kovich U 372 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 2: twenty two player that we traded for from Charlotte, a 373 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 2: guy who we've really seen some flashes from. 374 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 3: Atkovich saw that he can. 375 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 2: Be this dynamic playmaker in that holding midfield, getting up 376 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 2: the field. So last Saturday in training, while the team 377 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 2: was of course still training on the international break, he 378 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 2: tore his ACL Nicolapetkovich is out for the rest of 379 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 2: the year, and Pete for a guy that has shown 380 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 2: those flashes, it's just so hard to see for a 381 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 2: kid like that. 382 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's very difficult because he's just starting to find 383 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,119 Speaker 4: his way. Players are starting to recognize his abilities. He 384 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 4: was starting to push Albert Rusnik as a player that 385 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,280 Speaker 4: can attack and go forward from the middle of the park, 386 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 4: and he was getting used to the system. And this 387 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 4: is a great place to play for any MLS player 388 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 4: to come from another club to come here. The culture 389 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 4: is so good, the expectation's good, the opportunity is great, 390 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 4: and he was doing well with his chance and now 391 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 4: you know you're on an eight month, you know, journey 392 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 4: to get healthy. He's got people around him. Paul Ariola 393 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,560 Speaker 4: just went through it. He did a phenomenal job in 394 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 4: his rehab. Morris has obviously been through that as well, 395 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 4: so we've We've had some guys that have dealt with 396 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 4: this kind of injury. But that's a tough one. It's 397 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,040 Speaker 4: especially when you're starting to find your way and starting 398 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 4: to make regular appearances into the lineup. So tough break 399 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 4: for him. He's got a great staff that's going to 400 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 4: get him back on track. He knows what's ahead of him, 401 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 4: but he's going to have to grind through it. 402 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 2: And it is unfortunate Nicola Pekovic out for the year 403 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 2: with his torn acl just one week ago in training. 404 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 3: Well. 405 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,160 Speaker 2: In terms of who is starting for the Sounders today, Pete, 406 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 2: what is Brian Schpencer doing with his delta starting eleven? 407 00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 4: What's the same shape that we're used to. It's a 408 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 4: four to two, three to one. Andrew Thomas Engle, Klani Rosa, 409 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,760 Speaker 4: Kimsey Riensa is on the right for Alex Roldan and 410 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 4: then Tino Lopez, Jackson Reagan will anchor the middle of 411 00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 4: the park. Knew who retains his spot on the left, 412 00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,160 Speaker 4: Christian rolled On, Snyder Bernel in the middle of the park, 413 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 4: Paul Oriola on the right, Paul Rothrock on the left. 414 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:10,399 Speaker 4: Jesus Ferrera will sit underneath Danny Masovski. Again, lots of changes, 415 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 4: but a really good lineup, a lineup that we've got, 416 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,400 Speaker 4: you know, threats on the wings, We've got a thread 417 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 4: up front, a very solid midfield and a good back 418 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 4: line and our goalkeeper has proven himself, so you know, 419 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 4: I expect that Seattle is going to come out and 420 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 4: play very well with this lineup and still be cohesive. 421 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 2: Let's start with the back line and a number of 422 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 2: points I want to bring up here. First thing that 423 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 2: stands out I think along that back line is Kalani 424 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 2: starting on the right, Tino next to him at center back, 425 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,959 Speaker 2: Alex roll don you mentioned we talked to Brian Spencer 426 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 2: this morning. It certainly wants to keep Alex Rolled on 427 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:44,000 Speaker 2: for that big Conker Calf t Grace. 428 00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 3: Game coming up on a Wednesday. 429 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, and he said he could use him for ten 430 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 4: minutes if he needs to close out a game. But 431 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 4: you're right that right side now, Tino did a very 432 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 4: good job. He's good on the ball. Uh And and 433 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 4: Brian said he's got it. He's got a handful. The 434 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 4: kid up front, you know. 435 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:00,320 Speaker 12: Paul's. 436 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, he's going to have his hands full. Ponzi's a 437 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,639 Speaker 4: big body and uses it well. And we saw Jackson 438 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 4: Reagan learn to use his body. But it takes some 439 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 4: time so to know what you can do, what you 440 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 4: can't do, what you should bite on, and what you 441 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 4: should not bite on. So that'll be interesting. And then 442 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 4: Jackson Reagan has been lights out. I keep thinking and 443 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 4: I wonder, maybe I give our guys too much credit sometime, 444 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,080 Speaker 4: but I wonder, could he be a national team? 445 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 17: Thought? 446 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 4: Thought, right, he's just been so good, and I mean, 447 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 4: you look at the clean sheets they've gotten, and he's 448 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 4: so good on the ball, and I'm very impressed. And 449 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 4: you know, we talked about when he started that he 450 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 4: could be Chad Marshall esque. We'd like him to get 451 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 4: a few more goals, but I think he has become 452 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 4: that Chad Marshall as far as reading the game, using 453 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 4: his body properly, being very good on the ball. His 454 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 4: clearances are one thing that I as a coach. You know, 455 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 4: you get a guy who's sitting on at the edge 456 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 4: of his six and he clears the ball to the 457 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 4: edge of the box and then it gets pounded into 458 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,240 Speaker 4: the back of Then when Jackson Reagan clears the ball, 459 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 4: he sends it into places that are out of danger 460 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 4: and they are statistically good spots, and he does it, 461 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 4: I would say, almost every single time. So I like 462 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 4: our back line. I knew who's been great, knew who's 463 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 4: been just what a fun evolution watching him turn into 464 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 4: this rock solid lockdown, you know, Captain of Cameroon player 465 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 4: and it's it's really fun to see what he's doing. 466 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 4: So left side of the back four solid, right side 467 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 4: of the back four and. 468 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 18: I up and coming. 469 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, up and coming, well said l On. He's good. 470 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 2: So let's go all the way from the back line 471 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:37,479 Speaker 2: to the front Danny Mazowski. And this is interesting because 472 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,239 Speaker 2: on international duty, you know, we had two of our 473 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 2: three forwards all go away from the international duty. Missovski 474 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 2: was with North Macedonia at doing World Cup qualifying games. Uh, 475 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,880 Speaker 2: North Macedonia did not make the World Cup, but Danny Masovski. 476 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 3: Still with them. 477 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 2: And then you have also Sassidi Razaru who is with 478 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 2: Ghana and he had an amazing run. He had a 479 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 2: hat trick against Believe and did extremely well. Of course, 480 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 2: Jordan Morris just looks saving him for the t Grace 481 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 2: CONCERCAF game, but it's Mazowski getting the start over Osase. 482 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 12: Well. 483 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 4: One thing that Brian Schmetzer likes and one thing that 484 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,360 Speaker 4: he definitely has is he's got competition at every single position, 485 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 4: right even in goal. Right Fry has been lights out, 486 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 4: per Brian Schmetzer. So he's got competition. And he looks 487 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 4: at Azase and it's tough because he doesn't really like 488 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 4: doing this. But in Ozase's case, he hasn't put the 489 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 4: ball in the back of the net for the Sounders. 490 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 4: In his international games. He's done really well, but he's 491 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 4: got to give Danny Mesovsky a chance. And when Mazowski 492 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,760 Speaker 4: went in against Vancouver and got that great header all 493 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 4: out what we saw last year with his eighteen goals 494 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,400 Speaker 4: in all competitions, I think you got to give Danny 495 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:52,560 Speaker 4: Masovski a chance. And this is the opportunity that you 496 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 4: have to take advantage of your opportunities. And Ozase hasn't 497 00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 4: put in the back of the net. He was really 498 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 4: good against Louisville in preseason.

They controlled the game, and then you know, 672 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 18: as it. 673 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 23: Has been traditioned in the season, not ready for Huth 674 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:54,719 Speaker 23: and anam one, they had another player getting to up 675 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 23: with Red Carr and they leave the league in red cards, 676 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,120 Speaker 23: which I don't think nobody could have predicted that. Did 677 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 23: anybody that bets on you know, Kofi or all the 678 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 23: other betting, but it couldn't put the lead the league 679 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 23: in right cards. So you know, there were men down 680 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,840 Speaker 23: for like thirty minutes and obviously when that happens, you 681 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 23: have to hold on for dear life. But it's a 682 00:33:12,680 --> 00:33:15,160 Speaker 23: good time to team like Essie Dallas and that then 683 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 23: broke and you know, Dallas came back and we took. 684 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 18: The lead for three. Uh So, yeah, it was just 685 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 18: the wow game first and second half. But like I said, 686 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 18: if you're a fan of goals, this was a good 687 00:33:26,360 --> 00:33:29,040 Speaker 18: game to watch. The goals were pretty good to watch. 688 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, lots of goals in that game. 689 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 2: Looks like the Houston had that three to two lead 690 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 2: there going into the break and then to Dallas second 691 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 2: half goals an own goal by Sviatchenko and patar Musa 692 00:33:40,920 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 2: with the eighty sixth minute winner there for Dallas. I 693 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 2: love you because there's a lot of things there that 694 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 2: I want to follow up on. Let's start with that 695 00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 2: new player there, that attacker Jerme who scored there in 696 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 2: the twenty ninth minute. 697 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 3: It was your first goal of the game to get 698 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 3: you back. 699 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 2: Uh Let's let's talk about him and what he's been 700 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 2: able to do for that Houston Dynamo attack there on 701 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:02,160 Speaker 2: the right wing. 702 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 3: Tell us about him. 703 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 18: He's taught on the right wing. 704 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,600 Speaker 23: But yeah, he has freedom, you know, and I think 705 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 23: Ben Olsen trusts him to find the pockets of space 706 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 23: and use. 707 00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 18: That space as needed. 708 00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 8: You know. 709 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 23: With the first goal, that was just him hence a 710 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,560 Speaker 23: moment you know, he saw the pass was coming, he 711 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 23: wasn't get there. He jumped on in for an easy goal. 712 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 23: But his his sif on that second Dynamo goal, my god, 713 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,840 Speaker 23: that was almost right across the you know, half halfline 714 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 23: of the field, and it was just it was a slow, 715 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 23: smooth path that nobody was going to get there. He 716 00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 23: comes and Lawrence and notally with his feet. But I 717 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 23: think what separates him is he's fast. Yes he's strong, 718 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 23: but I think his his his mind, you know, the 719 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,040 Speaker 23: way he's able to find these pockets of spaces and 720 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 23: put himself in the right spot to receive the ball 721 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,800 Speaker 23: and whether it's you know, take a shot, uh pass. 722 00:34:58,480 --> 00:35:00,480 Speaker 23: It's just that's one thing I've noticed. And look, it's 723 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 23: only four games, so I'm sure there's more to learn 724 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 23: of him, but that's what I've seen in this first 725 00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 23: few games. It's the way he's able to find these 726 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,680 Speaker 23: pockets's face and make the best because I mean, as 727 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 23: you know, sometimes pockets play close really quick, and the 728 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 23: best players to make that decision before they even get 729 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 23: the ball, they already know where it's going. And I 730 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,800 Speaker 23: think he's one of those players. So yeah, you know, 731 00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 23: four those three says like, that's pretty you know, we 732 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 23: already have some m list fun. 733 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 18: They said that they're. 734 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 23: Taking back what they said about Gearmett because they were 735 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 23: saying that he wasn't able to reputate. 736 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,800 Speaker 18: What he did during his time with Santos. 737 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 23: So look, like I said, four games in, still a 738 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,799 Speaker 23: lot of season left, but so far bymore are pretty 739 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 23: happy with this signing. 740 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 3: I would imagine. 741 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:42,240 Speaker 2: So with with those kind of stats, I mean, averaging 742 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 2: nearly two goal contributions a game is pretty darn good. 743 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,879 Speaker 2: Here early in the season, Haesus Oscevedo Junior is our guest. 744 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 2: He covers the Houston Dynamo for the Bayoucidian. The Sanders. 745 00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 2: Next game is April fourth, coming up in a week 746 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 2: and a half down in Houston against the Dynamo, and 747 00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:01,319 Speaker 2: Hayesu's you know, stepping back from him and the job 748 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 2: that he's done there starting on the right wing playing 749 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 2: more freely, and then looking at the entire attack. 750 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,879 Speaker 3: I mean, Hayes's on paper, this is a pretty good group. 751 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,200 Speaker 2: You have Matayosh Bagosh who obviously did so many good 752 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 2: things with LAFC and then went to Lega a Mechi's 753 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 2: and then you know, did well there comes back to 754 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,840 Speaker 2: MLS Now with Houston, you have Ponce who was a 755 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 2: big high priced signing. You have a Nalli guy that 756 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 2: I quite like there in the left midfield. Hector Herrera 757 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 2: is back in the center midfield. You have Jack mcclin 758 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:33,680 Speaker 2: is your right midfielder. That is a six some haeseus 759 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:35,399 Speaker 2: that on paper. 760 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 3: Is pretty darn good. It is start early in the season. 761 00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 2: But kind of looking at that on paper is the 762 00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 2: expectations that they will be able to carry this team 763 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 2: to a playoff spot. 764 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 18: I think that's that's the goal. You know, uh, last 765 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,400 Speaker 18: thing's in the Dynamoe that was one of their achilles. 766 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,840 Speaker 23: He'll scoring right when they needed to, you know, random 767 00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 23: they would have these high scoring games, but they. 768 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:01,240 Speaker 18: They didn't have the talent. 769 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 23: You know, they had a lot of injuries last season. 770 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,760 Speaker 23: But this season they also they really retold the offense. 771 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:11,760 Speaker 23: They really wanted to make it more dynamic, you know, Bogus, 772 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 23: you know you you mentioned he's been outshined by Gearman. 773 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,600 Speaker 23: You know, he still hasn't even hit his stride yet. 774 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 12: Uh you know. 775 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:21,359 Speaker 23: But I think it's also the changing the formation has 776 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 23: allowed them. You know, I have been also you know 777 00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 23: the three five two formations fight to the dot com 778 00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 23: before twenty ten started or after training can started. Once 779 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 23: he saw the players and he said it was a 780 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 23: bit of bout. You know, they saw what players they had, 781 00:37:34,120 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 23: the players that were looking to add. So him the 782 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 23: coaches were, okay, how can we make best use you know, 783 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 23: and that's what you also have, you know, players like 784 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 23: going homes with a milfielder right now he's a right 785 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,399 Speaker 23: wing back, you know, you you mentioned laws heally he's 786 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 23: a left wing back, you know. So so they're he's 787 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 23: trusting these players that are not known as defense rather 788 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 23: they're more midfield or forward. He's trusted them and he's 789 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,720 Speaker 23: uh strengthening them to to be able. 790 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 18: To play that and that adds who they're attacking. Forrest 791 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:03,840 Speaker 18: on the back hand side. 792 00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 23: Of that, their defense has struggled a bit because they're 793 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 23: still working that out. 794 00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 18: So you know, it's the. 795 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:12,399 Speaker 23: Kicking and n eg like, what do you want first 796 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,840 Speaker 23: offense to be better or the defenseive be better? You know, 797 00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 23: I mean pastimes with Olson the defense and the one 798 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 23: that has been coming out of the season. 799 00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 18: You know, being good. But this season so far to 800 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:22,440 Speaker 18: four games is kind of a flip. 801 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:26,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting, you know, kind of just the hearing 802 00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 2: about how you look at the players that you have 803 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,200 Speaker 2: and how do you make them work best. And the 804 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 2: Sounders just finished facing a team a few days ago 805 00:38:34,880 --> 00:38:38,200 Speaker 2: in Minnesota United who, as we know from last year, Hayes, 806 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 2: Who's just played this ultra boring, really unattractive style of 807 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:45,520 Speaker 2: soccer under head coach Eric Ramsey, and it was just 808 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 2: the worst thing to watch. And then Ramsey leaves and 809 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:52,759 Speaker 2: Cameron Knowles takes over as Minnesota's head coach, changes the 810 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 2: system through four games, says, I don't care what our 811 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,400 Speaker 2: team is built like, I'm going to run a more 812 00:38:57,480 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 2: offensive system. It just stinks, you know, eleven goals conceded 813 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 2: through four games and two and nine goals in the 814 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 2: last two games. So Cameron Knowles says, Okay, that didn't 815 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 2: work very well. Then I'm just gonna go back to 816 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 2: what works for my personnel, and what worked for my 817 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 2: personnel was this ultra defensive system and boom, it causes. 818 00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 3: The Sounders and that game goes zero zero. 819 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 2: So in the sense of coaches figuring out what they 820 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,080 Speaker 2: have and mapping the best lineup and mapping the best 821 00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 2: skills to what the players can do, Yeah, it sounds 822 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 2: like Houston's already ahead of Minnesota in that regard and 823 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 2: Ben Olsen is figuring that out. Let's talk a little 824 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 2: bit more about that defense that that week part of 825 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:41,720 Speaker 2: Houston's team. You mentioned the red card, the double yellow 826 00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,439 Speaker 2: in that game against Dallast and it's Fiatchenko, the center back. 827 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 2: So he will be missing that game against Seattle. How 828 00:39:49,719 --> 00:39:52,320 Speaker 2: much of a loss will that be to a Houston 829 00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 2: defense that has already struggled huge. 830 00:39:56,680 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 23: I would think he's probably the number one defense under 831 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 23: that Houston can do without. You know, last season when 832 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 23: he was hurt, the Dynamo missed them. His veteran presence, 833 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,959 Speaker 23: his you know, gil, he's IQ on the on the ball. 834 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 23: It's it's very hard to replace what he brings. 835 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 2: You know. 836 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,080 Speaker 23: Yes, he's not one of these youngest center backs. He's 837 00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:20,279 Speaker 23: a bit more age, you know, thirty two, thirty three. 838 00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 23: But but his press is just on the field of 839 00:40:23,320 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 23: his communication I think will be badly missed, you know. 840 00:40:29,080 --> 00:40:30,680 Speaker 23: On the flip side of that, I think it gives 841 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:32,920 Speaker 23: a good chance for the players to step up and 842 00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 23: kind of, you know, start ce mincing themselves. You know, 843 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 23: they just signed one of their draft picks from this 844 00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:42,799 Speaker 23: past season, August August Resh Hope up, you. 845 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 18: Know, six sixth center back. You know, they got him 846 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 18: in the third round. 847 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 23: And you know, Benolsen said, you know, they asked him 848 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 23: about how you know, because they signed into the first 849 00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 23: first in contract. 850 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:52,920 Speaker 18: The first games they had just handed to go shirts 851 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 18: some contracts. 852 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 23: But they recently lost the center back Lucas Halter from Argentina. 853 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 23: He was one of the new players. He's out for 854 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 23: about a month. So they were impressed with what Rush 855 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:06,400 Speaker 23: was able to do, so they signed him to an 856 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,560 Speaker 23: actual firston contract. But Ben was pretty honest, He's like, 857 00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:12,400 Speaker 23: do we sign him if Halter isn't her? I don't know, 858 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:14,800 Speaker 23: he said, but we are impressed enough to time to 859 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 23: this first thing contract. As it related back to Eric 860 00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:20,400 Speaker 23: in the game, I think it's a big mass. I 861 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 23: many to see what pairing he chooses for this for 862 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:27,799 Speaker 23: this back three uh uh to go against a strong 863 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:29,720 Speaker 23: Seattle Founders offensive attack. 864 00:41:29,840 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 2: Well, Haysiu's I'm calling the game here for kg R 865 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,279 Speaker 2: coming up in a week and a half. And as 866 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 2: I kind of prepped this broadcast, you know, Carlos, would 867 00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 2: you say it is next to resh the six to 868 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 2: sixth guy, because that's obviously something that you know, you know, 869 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 2: will raise our eyes in terms of all right on 870 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:46,759 Speaker 2: set pieces, you have a six to six guy who 871 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:48,560 Speaker 2: can you know, potentially a young guy who can get 872 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:49,120 Speaker 2: up in the air. 873 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:50,400 Speaker 3: That's interesting. 874 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 2: So uh, I think that's something they'll watch and maybe 875 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,880 Speaker 2: we'll text about it is as well. We'll see here 876 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 2: in the week and a half ahead. But you know, overall, 877 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 2: it's just an interesting one paper. We'll wrap up with 878 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 2: this as we always do, which is predictions. This seems 879 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 2: to be a Houston team that can definitely score with 880 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 2: some talented players there in that front six of this 881 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:14,720 Speaker 2: four three three. So given that and given the defensive struggle, 882 00:42:14,760 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 2: are we looking at a high scoring back and forth 883 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 2: game just like your last game against Dallas. 884 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 18: It's interesting because Sanders I've only conceded twice. If I'm 885 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 18: gonna take yeah, right, correct. So it's hard defense to crack, 886 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 18: you know. So I. 887 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 23: It's like, what's your definition of high scoring? I guess 888 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,600 Speaker 23: you know, like three fourths. 889 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 2: As the person who's doing play by play for I'm 890 00:42:40,239 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 2: hoping we're looking like a three to two Sounders win. 891 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:44,000 Speaker 3: That's what That's what I'm looking for. 892 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 18: Yeah, I know what I'm gonna say to to draw. 893 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 18: I think I'm gonna go to to draw, but uh yeah, 894 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:54,840 Speaker 18: I'll go to to draw. I think it'll be that 895 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 18: that kind of high scoring game. But I wouldn't be. 896 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 23: Surprised if it's a low first half, low attacking first have, 897 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 23: and then he just turns on. 898 00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 18: In the second half. They are things here in Houston. 899 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 2: So you know, there is Haesus Ossevedo Junior who thinks 900 00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 2: that this could be a tea another game where the 901 00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:13,399 Speaker 2: Houston defense really gives up a bunch of goals. We're 902 00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 2: back here live on the Providence Swedish pre match show 903 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:19,480 Speaker 2: looking ahead to Sounders against Houston Dynamo. Jackson Feltz here 904 00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:22,399 Speaker 2: alongside pe Hewing. We'll bring Steve Zachwani for the call 905 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 2: here and the game right now scheduled to kick off 906 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,760 Speaker 2: right at six o'clock Pacific time, so just over fifteen 907 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 2: minutes away from kickoff for the Sounders against Dynamo sellen 908 00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 2: Ergy Stadium. Again, there was a weather delay that caused 909 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 2: this match to have a twenty minute slide, but it 910 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 2: looks like that delay is coming to an end very 911 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 2: very soon. And Pete, as we take a few minutes 912 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:46,280 Speaker 2: to talk about this Houston Dynamo team. You know, Hayesu's 913 00:43:46,280 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 2: talked about it there. It's a team that gives up 914 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 2: a lot of goals. 915 00:43:48,840 --> 00:43:49,720 Speaker 3: They lost their. 916 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 2: Best center back, Eric's Fiatchenko to a red card against Dallas. 917 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,719 Speaker 2: He's suspended. They've had to slide other people in. It's not, 918 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:58,560 Speaker 2: by the way the guy he was just talking about 919 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 2: resh It's going to be a full backs sliding into 920 00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:06,120 Speaker 2: the center backs today with Andrade and Negri between and 921 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:09,279 Speaker 2: between them is Antonio Carlos, their main center back from 922 00:44:09,520 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 2: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. So Pete, this is a Houston 923 00:44:13,080 --> 00:44:15,879 Speaker 2: team that give up a lot of goals and it's 924 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,279 Speaker 2: interesting to see if the Sounders can get them while 925 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:19,879 Speaker 2: they're down their best center back. 926 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:24,359 Speaker 4: Agreed, agree, They've got a very potent offense as well. 927 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:26,800 Speaker 4: Those front three guys. For them to have eight goals 928 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 4: in the first four MLS games is pretty impressive, right, 929 00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 4: but giving up nine goals and losing your center back 930 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 4: to a red card is tough. Brian Spetzer said that 931 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,640 Speaker 4: they always want to start on the road with the 932 00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:41,040 Speaker 4: mindset of get a clean sheet. I don't see it 933 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 4: being a two to two game. I'd love it if 934 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 4: we picked up two goals. We've got five goals in total, right, 935 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:49,759 Speaker 4: but we've only given up the two, so you know, 936 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 4: it's I think the wing play is going to be 937 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 4: really important. And when I say that, that is Ariola 938 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:58,279 Speaker 4: getting on the end of Rothrocks crosses, right, and Musofski 939 00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 4: getting on the end of crosses. But and then Rothrock 940 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 4: getting on the end of Ariolas crosses as well. So 941 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 4: for us to get the goals, you know, gosh, we 942 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 4: just saw the highlights of Paul Rothrock on the screen here. 943 00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:13,279 Speaker 4: All the goals that he's put in four total. It's 944 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,319 Speaker 4: been impressive. So you know, it was interesting when Brian 945 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:19,439 Speaker 4: said started at zero. He is he is by nature conservative, 946 00:45:20,080 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 4: especially on the road, and he does say it's it is. 947 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 4: It is difficult. Look what happened at RSL, so I 948 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 4: think Seattle comes out with that mindset, especially with two 949 00:45:30,200 --> 00:45:33,320 Speaker 4: new guys, not Colon, He's not that new, but he 950 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:37,479 Speaker 4: is his new ish to the back line. So it'll 951 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 4: be interesting to see, you know, what we do, what 952 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:44,000 Speaker 4: how Tino Lopez deals with their big guys up front, right, 953 00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:46,880 Speaker 4: Bogis loves to run, right, Ponzi is a big body. 954 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 4: So yeah, it'll be an interesting game to see how 955 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 4: we get out of the gates. 956 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and kierame two. That's threesome, very very potent. 957 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:57,240 Speaker 2: As you mentioned, with those eight goals, it is interesting, 958 00:45:57,400 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 2: you know how Houston is dealing with this match, not 959 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 2: only with the last Fiatchenko, but I also mentioned there 960 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 2: in that interview Jack McGlenn, a guy who was a 961 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:09,319 Speaker 2: standout with Philadelphia, and I texted Hayeshu's just a moment 962 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,840 Speaker 2: ago to ask him what's going on with Jack McGlenn 963 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 2: because he's not on their team. He was questionable today 964 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:17,520 Speaker 2: with a lower body injury that kind of popped about 965 00:46:17,560 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 2: of nowhere. It seems he is not available, and that's 966 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:23,640 Speaker 2: a very very good player that they're going to be 967 00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:26,160 Speaker 2: without in Jack McGlenn. So a little bit of a 968 00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 2: good thing for the centers, they're not having to face him, 969 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:31,319 Speaker 2: but pete for a guy like Ben Olsen, their head coach, 970 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 2: long time both player and MLS I mean, a guy 971 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 2: who is MVP of MLS Cup way back in nineteen 972 00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:41,200 Speaker 2: ninety nine with DC, then coached d C for a decade, 973 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,680 Speaker 2: is now with Houston. It's interesting to see his systems 974 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 2: change from kind of you know, possession based hard knows 975 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,480 Speaker 2: we're going to you know, hit you hard, to a 976 00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:55,160 Speaker 2: little bit less possession based here in this three four three. 977 00:46:55,200 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 2: It's interesting Ben Olsen's evolution. 978 00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 4: Well, you go with the talent that you have. So 979 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 4: if you want to hit these long balls for Bogish 980 00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 4: up front to you know, make him run and make 981 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 4: him get into the channels U s. And with three 982 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,320 Speaker 4: guys up front, why not bypass the midfield, you know. 983 00:47:10,360 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 4: And if you got three at the back, you're not 984 00:47:12,120 --> 00:47:13,759 Speaker 4: going to play out of the back too much, right, 985 00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 4: So good for Ben. You know, Brian said he's old 986 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,600 Speaker 4: school like Bruce Arena like himself. I like what Ben 987 00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 4: Olsen's done. I think it wasn't an easy tenure in 988 00:47:24,360 --> 00:47:27,040 Speaker 4: d C because the support wasn't there right for the club, 989 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 4: the facility wasn't what it was, but Ben always is. 990 00:47:30,239 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 4: He's a really strong competitor. They trained at Seattle, you 991 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:36,880 Speaker 4: a few different times, and it's fun to watch coaches 992 00:47:37,000 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 4: coach and how he is on the field. And this 993 00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:43,960 Speaker 4: is the same with Brian. Players. Players mimic and set 994 00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,360 Speaker 4: the standards of their of their coaches. And you know, 995 00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 4: you talk about him being fiery. Three red cards in 996 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:52,800 Speaker 4: four games for players and then one red card for 997 00:47:53,080 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 4: an assistant coach. That's a fiery squad. Can we get 998 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,680 Speaker 4: under their skin? Can we get under their skin? And 999 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 4: Brian said a funny one. Preston Burpo is Sounder goalkeeper 1000 00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 4: from way back, and Ezra's there right, and. 1001 00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 2: Ezra Hendrickson, former Sounders assistant coach now insistent with Houston. 1002 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,000 Speaker 4: Yes, thank you. And one of the things we saw 1003 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 4: in the warm up is that Brian likes to put 1004 00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:15,920 Speaker 4: his transition game in the warm up right on the 1005 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:19,520 Speaker 4: fifty yard line. Well that ticked off Preston when he 1006 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:22,239 Speaker 4: was at Austin and they weren't talking, and so you 1007 00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 4: just these little mind games, right, We saw it. We 1008 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:27,719 Speaker 4: saw it in my opinion with Don Staley right and 1009 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,359 Speaker 4: Gino Arima, there was there was some mind stuff going 1010 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 4: on there. 1011 00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,319 Speaker 2: You see you see the Gino apologize today profusely put 1012 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:37,200 Speaker 2: out a statement to very much log for what happened. 1013 00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 4: I like both those coaches, but there is stuff that 1014 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 4: goes on. So if this gets riled up today and 1015 00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 4: we get a guy from el Houston kicked out, that's 1016 00:48:46,680 --> 00:48:47,239 Speaker 4: good for the sound. 1017 00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:50,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're three red cards lead MLSSON red cards.

It was a little bit of a twenty 1198 00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:32,880 Speaker 2: minute delay there for players, but looks like we're ready 1199 00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:33,680 Speaker 2: to get things going. 1200 00:58:33,960 --> 00:58:35,640 Speaker 24: Yeah, we a and it's very strange. Usually go to 1201 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:37,840 Speaker 24: Houston a super hut, you get one type of v 1202 00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 24: and you have to adjust in adepts Prez, I think 1203 00:58:39,800 --> 00:58:41,920 Speaker 24: twenty minutes isn't the worst. We've had worse in the PUS, 1204 00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:43,960 Speaker 24: so I think the guys should still be pretty much 1205 00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:45,120 Speaker 24: ready to go spen. 1206 00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 2: Seventy five degrees in Houston with ninety percent humidity, heavy 1207 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 2: rain for tonight's game. At least right now, it should 1208 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:55,760 Speaker 2: taper off according to my weather app here, but we'll 1209 00:58:55,800 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 2: see how this thing works in a very unpredictable weather 1210 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 2: place like Houston, Texas. We'll give you the delta starting 1211 00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 2: eleven for your Seattle Sounders right now. Of course, the 1212 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 2: Sounders also have a game on Wednesday against Tea Grace 1213 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,600 Speaker 2: down there in Mexico for the CONKA CAF Champions Cup quarterfinal, 1214 00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:13,600 Speaker 2: so there's a little bit of rotation here from head 1215 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:16,240 Speaker 2: coach Brian Schmitzer. But of course the Sounders did not 1216 00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:18,520 Speaker 2: play last week, so that is a factor as well. 1217 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 2: Andrew Thomas is in goal for Seattle, knew who is 1218 00:59:21,480 --> 00:59:23,440 Speaker 2: your left back? Next to him at center back is 1219 00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:27,000 Speaker 2: of course Jackson Reagan, Tino Lopez getting the start at 1220 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,760 Speaker 2: the other center back spot, Colin and Cooza Rienzi is 1221 00:59:29,840 --> 00:59:33,520 Speaker 2: your right back. Christian rolled On starting in the midfield 1222 00:59:33,560 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 2: for your Sounders, and he today makes his four hundredth 1223 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 2: all competition appearance for the Sounders. He becomes the ninth 1224 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:44,240 Speaker 2: player in Major League Soccer history to have four hundred 1225 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,120 Speaker 2: plus appearances for one club. 1226 00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:49,280 Speaker 3: Congratulations to Christian. Next to him is Snyder Burnell. 1227 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:51,840 Speaker 2: We got Paul Rothrock on the left wing, Hey sus 1228 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:54,520 Speaker 2: Ferrara in the middle, and Paul Ariola out on the 1229 00:59:54,640 --> 00:59:56,800 Speaker 2: right wing with Danny Mazowski up front. 1230 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:58,760 Speaker 17: Steve, Yeah, it's a very strong line up. 1231 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,520 Speaker 24: I think you know Christian well, four hundred games in 1232 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 24: one club, at the level he's playing, guy, he seems 1233 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:05,440 Speaker 24: to be getting better and better. But it's about the 1234 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 24: time I think that this attacking group has to break 1235 01:00:07,080 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 24: out at some point. You know, only five goals in 1236 01:00:08,840 --> 01:00:11,080 Speaker 24: five games so far getting it done, mostly because of 1237 01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:13,200 Speaker 24: the shutouts. Houston is a tough place to play, but 1238 01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:15,680 Speaker 24: is a team that will give you chances. So I 1239 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 24: look for the guys on the wing play. I think 1240 01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:19,240 Speaker 24: you mentioned that in the pregame show in the white 1241 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:20,760 Speaker 24: eras can you get at this team and then create 1242 01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:23,240 Speaker 24: chances for Massowski centrally, who's proven himself to be a 1243 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 24: very good finisher. 1244 01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:26,560 Speaker 2: Our referee today is male L Faff, a very good 1245 01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 2: referee in Major League soccer, will whistle to let this 1246 01:00:29,440 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 2: game fly away as Houston will take command here in 1247 01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:37,520 Speaker 2: their dark blue jerseys. Sounders are in their greens here 1248 01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:40,800 Speaker 2: as Houston works up their right side very quickly getting 1249 01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:42,880 Speaker 2: into the box looking for an opportunity, cutting in. 1250 01:00:42,960 --> 01:00:45,960 Speaker 3: Taking the shot and is just wide of goal. A 1251 01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:47,200 Speaker 3: diving Andrew. 1252 01:00:47,000 --> 01:00:50,360 Speaker 2: Thomas to Thomas's right and it will just go wide. 1253 01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:54,720 Speaker 2: And that right there is Matayoshmagoosh, the LAFC former player 1254 01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 2: who went to Lega at mekis now playing up on 1255 01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,520 Speaker 2: that right and left wing for Houston. 1256 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:01,480 Speaker 3: Eve an instant chance. 1257 01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 24: There well, almost a dream start and a night mess 1258 01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:06,800 Speaker 24: dot for the sound is dream start for Houston getting 1259 01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:08,760 Speaker 24: behind You know branch Messa and now quoted in this 1260 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 24: morning did highlight the threat that the front free for 1261 01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 24: Houston does possess. So that one gonna come in surprise 1262 01:01:13,680 --> 01:01:15,160 Speaker 24: to the Sounder is I think you can expect a 1263 01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:17,600 Speaker 24: team to be a bit under pressure and you can 1264 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 24: be happy that you survived, Gwen. 1265 01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:24,480 Speaker 2: Early on as Andrew Thomas will push his back line 1266 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 2: up the field just a little bit and wave his 1267 01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:31,120 Speaker 2: team on as that was a very very dangerous moment 1268 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,200 Speaker 2: there at the very very start of this game. As 1269 01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:37,360 Speaker 2: we see the rain is still coming down here in Houston. 1270 01:01:37,400 --> 01:01:41,320 Speaker 2: A long ball from Andrew Thomas here to Danny Mazowski 1271 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 2: who starts it forward today an interesting choice there is 1272 01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:46,400 Speaker 2: a foul is called Houston will have a free kick 1273 01:01:46,480 --> 01:01:48,000 Speaker 2: from in there and end of the field. 1274 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:49,200 Speaker 3: But an interesting choice, Steve. 1275 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:53,280 Speaker 2: Both Danny Mazowski and Osasee di Rosario were on international 1276 01:01:53,440 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 2: duty with North Macedonian Guyana respectively over the last week 1277 01:01:58,240 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 2: and a half, and even with the success that Osasei 1278 01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:04,120 Speaker 2: has scoring a hat trick for Guyan against Belize, it's 1279 01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:07,120 Speaker 2: osase de Rosario on the bench and Danny Masovski getting 1280 01:02:07,120 --> 01:02:07,439 Speaker 2: the starts. 1281 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:09,439 Speaker 24: Yeah, I think Danny wins out just for club form. 1282 01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:12,080 Speaker 24: I think, you know, Danny proved himself last season. Osazi 1283 01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:15,400 Speaker 24: earned in preseason, but hasn't quite found his feet running 1284 01:02:15,400 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 24: domestically this campaign so far. Nan he lost time out 1285 01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:21,040 Speaker 24: was scoring goals in the Champions Cup, so I think 1286 01:02:21,080 --> 01:02:23,600 Speaker 24: from that perspective, it had been hard to convince Danny's 1287 01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:25,200 Speaker 24: to steel stay patients still on the bench, so his 1288 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:27,680 Speaker 24: right decision. But right now we've Jordan's did out. The 1289 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:29,400 Speaker 24: number nine spot is still up for the take. In 1290 01:02:29,440 --> 01:02:30,560 Speaker 24: between these two plays. 1291 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:33,000 Speaker 2: As the Sounders right now are working in possession with 1292 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 2: their back line now coming up, this left side tries 1293 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:38,640 Speaker 2: to flick a ball onto Paul Rothrock. He hustles and 1294 01:02:38,720 --> 01:02:41,160 Speaker 2: he gets there first, looking for a chance to cross 1295 01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:43,640 Speaker 2: into Mazowski and now he's gonna work one on one, 1296 01:02:44,240 --> 01:02:46,400 Speaker 2: he will have to go backwards Zoda Haes who's Ferira 1297 01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:49,160 Speaker 2: Ferreira trying to cross it in, but it will be 1298 01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 2: cut out from a Houston defender and cleared away. 1299 01:02:52,000 --> 01:02:53,280 Speaker 3: Seattle will retain possession. 1300 01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:54,880 Speaker 2: Here is we're just two and a half minutes into 1301 01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:57,600 Speaker 2: this match here there was a weather delay of about 1302 01:02:57,680 --> 01:03:00,840 Speaker 2: twenty minutes, but this game kicking off right at six 1303 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:04,920 Speaker 2: o'clock Pacific time for Sounders at Dynamo's Seattle right now 1304 01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:09,240 Speaker 2: here in their sixth match here of the season. As 1305 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:10,920 Speaker 2: they give a ball way here in the midfield and 1306 01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:13,680 Speaker 2: Houston a chance to break potentially, here's Ponce Ponce looking 1307 01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:17,120 Speaker 2: for some space with Bagosh dribbling up onto the right side. 1308 01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:18,600 Speaker 3: Houston. 1309 01:03:18,720 --> 01:03:22,520 Speaker 2: Now with Bagoosh a little giving go another one cut 1310 01:03:22,600 --> 01:03:24,400 Speaker 2: in and a shot just off the end of a 1311 01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:26,560 Speaker 2: foot and that will go well wide to the right. 1312 01:03:26,880 --> 01:03:29,360 Speaker 2: A chance there for Buzzatt. They're in the middle for 1313 01:03:30,000 --> 01:03:34,320 Speaker 2: Houston and that is a much needed moment to breathe. 1314 01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:36,400 Speaker 2: For the Seattle Sounders defensively here, yeah. 1315 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:38,040 Speaker 24: But creating their own issues there, sound as you can't 1316 01:03:38,080 --> 01:03:40,120 Speaker 24: give away cheap bulls that dynamd that of the punk 1317 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:42,400 Speaker 24: MNS teams are too good now, especially at home, they 1318 01:03:42,520 --> 01:03:45,040 Speaker 24: will have the chance to punish you. Houston Dynamo getting 1319 01:03:45,080 --> 01:03:47,280 Speaker 24: out on the attack quickly and just a little warning 1320 01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 24: signed there. It's a Houston team who under Benols in 1321 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:51,560 Speaker 24: the past couple of years was possession based, possession base 1322 01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:55,200 Speaker 24: now just as good going out under contra attack. Playing 1323 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:58,160 Speaker 24: in transition as a show dead a final show wasn't great. 1324 01:03:58,520 --> 01:04:01,200 Speaker 24: But for the Sounders, you can't afford siny giveaways minute 1325 01:04:01,240 --> 01:04:02,960 Speaker 24: of the pulk because teams will punish him. 1326 01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:05,080 Speaker 2: Now, Steve, a lot of these guys haven't played in 1327 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 2: a couple weeks since that Minnesota game. You wonder if 1328 01:04:07,960 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 2: there is a slight layoff after that time off, but 1329 01:04:11,160 --> 01:04:13,280 Speaker 2: hopefully they find their form here in just the few 1330 01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:16,600 Speaker 2: minutes here of this game, the sounders you saw heard 1331 01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:19,080 Speaker 2: a few booze rain in from the Houston fans. As 1332 01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:21,960 Speaker 2: we look here a lot of empty seats. You imagine 1333 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 2: that is because of the heavy rain and thunderstorms that 1334 01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 2: were forecasted for much of the week. Is Hayes's Fred 1335 01:04:27,040 --> 01:04:28,640 Speaker 2: tries to slip a ball in, but that is given 1336 01:04:28,680 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 2: away and taken from the Houston Dynamo who continue to 1337 01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:35,720 Speaker 2: try to work up this right side and they will 1338 01:04:35,760 --> 01:04:37,520 Speaker 2: be able to clear all the way to the left 1339 01:04:37,560 --> 01:04:39,440 Speaker 2: here for a Nali. A Nali now working up the 1340 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:41,880 Speaker 2: left with a lot of space, and in front of 1341 01:04:41,920 --> 01:04:43,520 Speaker 2: him is Tino Lopez. 1342 01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:45,920 Speaker 3: And has help here. 1343 01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:49,360 Speaker 2: Here is now on to this left side with Yer 1344 01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:51,640 Speaker 2: May he crosses it in and it's headed away from 1345 01:04:51,720 --> 01:04:55,600 Speaker 2: Jackson Reagan Houston's still controlling. Here is Giermey working his 1346 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:57,480 Speaker 2: way into the box. Now pops it out to Annali 1347 01:04:57,560 --> 01:05:01,680 Speaker 2: here on this left side working on Kilanie and Kilanie 1348 01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:03,280 Speaker 2: right on him and he will have to play it 1349 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:06,960 Speaker 2: back to Giermey who's with him some help. Gierme finding 1350 01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,720 Speaker 2: some space, slides the ball in, Booza cuts it and 1351 01:05:10,200 --> 01:05:13,840 Speaker 2: it is cut out well by Tino Lopez and looks 1352 01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:17,240 Speaker 2: like a Sounder throwing coming here from there on their 1353 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,439 Speaker 2: own end. But another job by Jackson Reagan and Timo 1354 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:21,520 Speaker 2: and Lopez to step up. 1355 01:05:21,640 --> 01:05:23,880 Speaker 24: Yeah, the Dinger's there, the Daners there. There's a reason 1356 01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 24: Branich Mayster highlighted this front three before the game is 1357 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:29,280 Speaker 24: cause the Houston Dynamo do possess a very very good 1358 01:05:29,320 --> 01:05:31,360 Speaker 24: attacking threat. This is nothing as sound as would not 1359 01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:33,320 Speaker 24: have expected. You know you're gonna be under pressure at 1360 01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,720 Speaker 24: some point. Right now, there's a Houston player down, so 1361 01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:37,560 Speaker 24: he give the back kind of chance to just breathe 1362 01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:40,360 Speaker 24: and recoup and get together. I think Jackson Reagan's been 1363 01:05:40,480 --> 01:05:42,280 Speaker 24: massive for the Sounds of this season, and I get 1364 01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:44,520 Speaker 24: a feeling for the next ninety minutes he's gonna have 1365 01:05:44,560 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 24: to come up clutch because this team, the Dynamo, looks 1366 01:05:47,280 --> 01:05:48,880 Speaker 24: like they're going to be playing on the front foot 1367 01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:51,000 Speaker 24: point in the Sounders team under a lot of pressure. 1368 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:53,960 Speaker 2: Steve, you mentioned a player down. That is Gieremey, the 1369 01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:57,280 Speaker 2: best player for the Dynamo, guy who has four goals 1370 01:05:57,360 --> 01:06:00,480 Speaker 2: and three assists, he's third in MLS through the start 1371 01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:04,000 Speaker 2: of the season with seven goal contributions. And by the way, 1372 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,240 Speaker 2: the Dynamo have played one less game than everybody else. 1373 01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 2: So Guierme a tremendous player for the Dynamo and he 1374 01:06:11,280 --> 01:06:12,960 Speaker 2: gets up and he's good to go. As the Sounders 1375 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:16,160 Speaker 2: will now work down this right side with Ariola. He 1376 01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:19,000 Speaker 2: has help with Kilanie. Let's see if he uses him, 1377 01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 2: and he will. Here's Kilani retreating just a little bit here, 1378 01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 2: and he will send it back to Tino Lopez who 1379 01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:28,840 Speaker 2: works in this back three while the Sounders are in 1380 01:06:28,960 --> 01:06:31,800 Speaker 2: possession with Jackson, Reagan and Knew who on the left side, 1381 01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:34,720 Speaker 2: now to Ferreira all way up to Rothrock on this 1382 01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:37,320 Speaker 2: left and the Sounders will now do what they do, 1383 01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:42,040 Speaker 2: and that's work in possession and look to find that 1384 01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:45,000 Speaker 2: possession with a purpose here in that back line. As 1385 01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:47,680 Speaker 2: you mentioned, Steve Houston's a team that was so possession 1386 01:06:47,760 --> 01:06:50,400 Speaker 2: based for so long, not so much anymore with head 1387 01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 2: coach Ben Holes. And you look at what they've done 1388 01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:55,320 Speaker 2: here recently and these four games that they've been in 1389 01:06:55,440 --> 01:06:56,680 Speaker 2: so far, forty. 1390 01:06:58,960 --> 01:06:59,360 Speaker 3: Five percent. 1391 01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:02,360 Speaker 2: They're not a sixty percent possession based team as of 1392 01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:05,560 Speaker 2: all slides all the way through to their keeper Jonathan Bond, 1393 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 2: who will roll it out to play from the back 1394 01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:11,280 Speaker 2: here for Houston, but not the same Ben Olsen type 1395 01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:13,000 Speaker 2: team that we've seen for many, many years. 1396 01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:14,920 Speaker 24: No, I think it makes them more dangerous because when 1397 01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:16,880 Speaker 24: they were very good in position, they were very good. 1398 01:07:16,960 --> 01:07:19,360 Speaker 24: But if your passings off as a possession team, they 1399 01:07:19,400 --> 01:07:20,680 Speaker 24: can kind of keep them in front of you. You 1400 01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:22,880 Speaker 24: don't have to kind of contain that. But when a 1401 01:07:22,920 --> 01:07:25,840 Speaker 24: team complained multiple ways, attack in multiple ways makes them 1402 01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:27,680 Speaker 24: that much more dangerous now instead of a very good 1403 01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:30,080 Speaker 24: passing team, I just think they're a little more vertically, 1404 01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:30,560 Speaker 24: a little bit. 1405 01:07:30,520 --> 01:07:32,440 Speaker 3: More direct in their play, and I think that makes 1406 01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:33,280 Speaker 3: them a bit more dangerous. 1407 01:07:33,320 --> 01:07:35,240 Speaker 2: No, they're trying to go direct from the back right 1408 01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:37,080 Speaker 2: here and get it up to gear May here on 1409 01:07:37,160 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 2: the left side, but very quickly closed down there by 1410 01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:43,960 Speaker 2: Ariola and Kilani Cosa Rienzi. They get it to the 1411 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:47,040 Speaker 2: middle of the park, working as some massacre back up 1412 01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:49,120 Speaker 2: to the left side for gear make gear May working 1413 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:52,479 Speaker 2: one on one right now with Kilani tries to slip 1414 01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:55,480 Speaker 2: a ball in, but Sounders defenders do a good job 1415 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:58,320 Speaker 2: as Kilanie is brought down and his on end that 1416 01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:02,200 Speaker 2: will go for a free kick from just inside Seattle's 1417 01:08:02,200 --> 01:08:04,360 Speaker 2: box and Booze rained down. But listen, if you're gonna 1418 01:08:04,400 --> 01:08:06,640 Speaker 2: drag a Klannie go down, that is a very very 1419 01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:08,720 Speaker 2: clear foul and a free kick coming for Andrew Thomas. 1420 01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:11,400 Speaker 24: Yeah, and just a chance for a rest bite here 1421 01:08:11,440 --> 01:08:13,520 Speaker 24: for the Sounders. The Sounders team that again I mentioned 1422 01:08:13,560 --> 01:08:15,360 Speaker 24: a couple of times, will be under pressure tonight. But 1423 01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:17,519 Speaker 24: in five m mens games to keep four clean sheets 1424 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:19,280 Speaker 24: rote a bit of luck in a couple of the games, 1425 01:08:19,560 --> 01:08:21,639 Speaker 24: he must be said. But with the amount of changes 1426 01:08:21,680 --> 01:08:23,880 Speaker 24: and injuries, especially on that back line, it's a very 1427 01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:26,559 Speaker 24: impressive feet to come out with the first five games 1428 01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:29,240 Speaker 24: of four clean sheets. But tonight maybe he's the biggest 1429 01:08:29,280 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 24: test this team would have faced so far. And I 1430 01:08:31,360 --> 01:08:34,120 Speaker 24: think Jackson Reagan to single him out. He's been absolutely 1431 01:08:34,160 --> 01:08:36,439 Speaker 24: fantastic back there, winning everything, and he's gonna have to 1432 01:08:36,439 --> 01:08:38,160 Speaker 24: have one of these best games of the season, if 1433 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,400 Speaker 24: not his best game. It's the Sounders to continue that 1434 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:41,479 Speaker 24: clean sheet run. 1435 01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:44,519 Speaker 2: Gooing Sounders working in possession here on their left side, 1436 01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:47,040 Speaker 2: retreating to Jackson Reagan and Jackson and Reagan, I believe 1437 01:08:47,040 --> 01:08:49,240 Speaker 2: he was just stepped on a little bit. He got 1438 01:08:49,320 --> 01:08:52,000 Speaker 2: up and hobbling slightly. But now over to the right 1439 01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 2: for Kaloney playing one on one with Anali and that 1440 01:08:55,040 --> 01:08:58,080 Speaker 2: will be out for a Houston throw here as the 1441 01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:00,280 Speaker 2: Sounder has played a little bit with fire and ends 1442 01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:04,800 Speaker 2: up with Houston in possession. As we will see what 1443 01:09:05,400 --> 01:09:08,280 Speaker 2: the Sounders defense can do again here and here's a 1444 01:09:08,360 --> 01:09:10,720 Speaker 2: Dolly working inside the box cutting it in and it's 1445 01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:13,960 Speaker 2: cleared away and it's an amazing job. I knew who 1446 01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:17,080 Speaker 2: to both block a shot and then quickly get his 1447 01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 2: foot in on that chance and it goes out for 1448 01:09:19,360 --> 01:09:21,920 Speaker 2: what I believe will be a quarter coming up. But 1449 01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:23,920 Speaker 2: an outstanding job here by new Steve. 1450 01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:26,400 Speaker 24: Yeah, as good as a goal because the Houston Dynamo 1451 01:09:26,560 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 24: again what nonde left hand side sounds right had side. 1452 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:30,559 Speaker 17: As the ball comes across. 1453 01:09:31,280 --> 01:09:33,439 Speaker 24: As that sits up there, you expected to strike against 1454 01:09:33,439 --> 01:09:34,920 Speaker 24: that first, that's in the back of the net. Knew 1455 01:09:34,920 --> 01:09:37,120 Speaker 24: who has to sacrifice himself, has to commit his buddy 1456 01:09:37,160 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 24: to the ball, does so, and that's a goal saving 1457 01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:42,479 Speaker 24: challenges today. Because Andrew told MIAs dead it's so close 1458 01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:44,759 Speaker 24: up he don't it if he you'd have time to react. 1459 01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:47,000 Speaker 24: But opening ten minutes or so has been all one 1460 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:47,559 Speaker 24: way traffic. 1461 01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:49,760 Speaker 2: And here comes the cross gear May It's gonna send it, 1462 01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:51,880 Speaker 2: and it's an outswinger from the right side, and it's 1463 01:09:51,880 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 2: headed away, a good header from Hayesus Freira and his 1464 01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:58,160 Speaker 2: wonderful wild hair that looks almost like peder Dale Levega 1465 01:09:58,240 --> 01:10:00,960 Speaker 2: when Pedro first got here. He's grown out that hair 1466 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:03,519 Speaker 2: and he heads that ball away. Houston in possession in 1467 01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:05,479 Speaker 2: the middle of the park as they will play with 1468 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:08,200 Speaker 2: their three center backs here today, shifting it over to 1469 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:12,720 Speaker 2: the left side with Franco Negri. Houston very much made 1470 01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:16,640 Speaker 2: up of a lot of Argentines and Brazilians, and you 1471 01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 2: wonder in that locker room how much rivalry talk has 1472 01:10:19,240 --> 01:10:23,280 Speaker 2: had between players from those countries as they work in 1473 01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:26,400 Speaker 2: possession here on that left side, in a triangle with 1474 01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:30,160 Speaker 2: Negri and Guierme running all over the field. He starts 1475 01:10:30,200 --> 01:10:31,760 Speaker 2: on the right wing and then he has freedom to 1476 01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:34,280 Speaker 2: go wherever he wants, and he has proved that that 1477 01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:37,880 Speaker 2: has worked this year, as a ball will go direct 1478 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:40,280 Speaker 2: up front, can it reach Ponse, It will over the 1479 01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:42,680 Speaker 2: top he plays on Tino Lopez. But I believe that 1480 01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:45,800 Speaker 2: ball might have gone out no call, No Sounders will 1481 01:10:45,840 --> 01:10:48,479 Speaker 2: be in possession here on the right side. It will 1482 01:10:48,560 --> 01:10:50,840 Speaker 2: now go towards the middle with Christian Roldan making his 1483 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:53,400 Speaker 2: four hundredth All Competition appearance. 1484 01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:55,040 Speaker 3: Today for Seattle Ball. 1485 01:10:55,120 --> 01:10:57,320 Speaker 2: Now back in the foot of Andrew Thomas, who will 1486 01:10:57,360 --> 01:10:59,720 Speaker 2: play over the left, and the Sounders are now in 1487 01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:02,719 Speaker 2: possession here on this left side, with perhaps a moment 1488 01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:05,320 Speaker 2: to break or breathe, and it will be breathed and 1489 01:11:05,400 --> 01:11:07,880 Speaker 2: Snyder Bernell will play it back to Christian Rodan who 1490 01:11:08,000 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 2: is sunk to a much deeper position. 1491 01:11:10,520 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 24: And this is what it sound is neat just moments 1492 01:11:12,200 --> 01:11:13,920 Speaker 24: like this where you can slow the game down, get 1493 01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 24: your foot on the board and depend on your experience. 1494 01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:16,519 Speaker 17: Players. 1495 01:11:16,600 --> 01:11:19,040 Speaker 24: Christian Rodun has to lead that charge in there in 1496 01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:21,439 Speaker 24: the midfield for the Sounders, and I think I have 1497 01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:22,960 Speaker 24: to get more chance at this in possession. 1498 01:11:23,000 --> 01:11:24,960 Speaker 17: The Dynamo will sit back. And this is what can 1499 01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:25,599 Speaker 17: you be? Dynamic? 1500 01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:28,720 Speaker 24: Can Wesoski Ferrera the two poors on the outside you 1501 01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:30,679 Speaker 24: have to be You can't just stay staggeringant in your position. 1502 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:32,280 Speaker 24: It's runs in behind a couple of you check in 1503 01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:34,559 Speaker 24: to feet and if that movement is up the upfront, 1504 01:11:34,840 --> 01:11:36,759 Speaker 24: and I think the sound of midfielder is in Schneider 1505 01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:39,280 Speaker 24: and Christian both have the quality to find the right. 1506 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,680 Speaker 2: Play sounders working on this right side. Kalani trying to 1507 01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:45,320 Speaker 2: keep possession. He does bob for and can Ariola get 1508 01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:47,800 Speaker 2: a chance, but nope, fowl is called and this will 1509 01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:50,320 Speaker 2: be a free kick for Houston after Brunell. I believe 1510 01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:53,040 Speaker 2: there is called for that foul. And you mentioned that 1511 01:11:53,160 --> 01:11:55,639 Speaker 2: the palls on the wings and when we saw it before, 1512 01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:59,599 Speaker 2: it was in Vancouver Conker calf action. Ariola scores two goals. 1513 01:11:59,640 --> 01:12:01,360 Speaker 2: He was play over the left wing at that time. 1514 01:12:01,680 --> 01:12:04,320 Speaker 2: But of course Paul Rothrock leading Seattle in goals this 1515 01:12:04,439 --> 01:12:06,920 Speaker 2: year with four goals. You have five goals and all 1516 01:12:07,000 --> 01:12:10,160 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five and MLLs action he has four already 1517 01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:13,599 Speaker 2: on his count this year in twenty twenty six. Rothrock 1518 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:16,320 Speaker 2: off to an amazing start. But it will be a 1519 01:12:16,479 --> 01:12:18,800 Speaker 2: chance for the Paulls to dominate the wings today for 1520 01:12:18,920 --> 01:12:21,719 Speaker 2: Seattle if they can get going against the Houston defense. 1521 01:12:22,080 --> 01:12:24,800 Speaker 2: That this stats quite amazing right now. They're giving up 1522 01:12:24,840 --> 01:12:28,040 Speaker 2: two point twenty five goals per game. That is second 1523 01:12:28,439 --> 01:12:32,479 Speaker 2: worst in the Western Conference. So hopefully the Sounders can 1524 01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:35,519 Speaker 2: get their offense cooking in this game down there in 1525 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,360 Speaker 2: the humid, humid heat of Houston, Texas. 1526 01:12:39,200 --> 01:12:41,280 Speaker 24: Yeah, and I think you know you read that dead Jackson. 1527 01:12:41,280 --> 01:12:43,120 Speaker 24: I think it's a team that will give you chances. 1528 01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:45,000 Speaker 24: And it's again, it's a game that's sort of set 1529 01:12:45,080 --> 01:12:47,880 Speaker 24: up for can you outscore your opponent? Often the Times 1530 01:12:47,880 --> 01:12:49,439 Speaker 24: want to get into that kind of gunslinger match. I 1531 01:12:49,520 --> 01:12:51,439 Speaker 24: think you want to be able to keep it tight 1532 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:53,599 Speaker 24: as much as you can in the backline. You'll give 1533 01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:57,120 Speaker 24: chances up absolutely, But if and when this Tuna will backline, 1534 01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:59,200 Speaker 24: as they're prone to do, give you chances, can you 1535 01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:00,760 Speaker 24: be that to say them that'll be five or six 1536 01:13:00,840 --> 01:13:02,559 Speaker 24: per a half, might be one, two or three good 1537 01:13:02,640 --> 01:13:04,839 Speaker 24: chances for the whole game in those moments? 1538 01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:06,240 Speaker 17: Can you be good enough? Ticket challenge? 1539 01:13:06,240 --> 01:13:07,040 Speaker 3: Here's Dwayne Holmes. 1540 01:13:07,160 --> 01:13:09,920 Speaker 2: He dispossesses Paul Rothrock, but immediately a passing into the 1541 01:13:09,960 --> 01:13:12,080 Speaker 2: middle of the park has taken away and the Sounders 1542 01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:14,880 Speaker 2: get possession. Right back here on this left side, it's 1543 01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:18,200 Speaker 2: Christian Roldan and Snyder doing a great job in that 1544 01:13:18,360 --> 01:13:20,599 Speaker 2: double pivot for Seattle. Now here's Ariol with a lot 1545 01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:22,120 Speaker 2: of space up here on the right side. He finds 1546 01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:24,439 Speaker 2: Kalani Klonie running into the box and it is a 1547 01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:27,000 Speaker 2: tipped ball with like a cross. He was trying to 1548 01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,639 Speaker 2: get into Mizoski and it was just tipped away from 1549 01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:30,439 Speaker 2: Franco Negri. 1550 01:13:30,880 --> 01:13:33,880 Speaker 3: That will go out. It should be a corner from 1551 01:13:33,960 --> 01:13:36,639 Speaker 3: my eyes. We'll see what a referee Lfath says. 1552 01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:38,920 Speaker 2: But look at that cross coming in here, it looks 1553 01:13:39,040 --> 01:13:41,320 Speaker 2: like it looked like Franko Negrie got a foot to that. 1554 01:13:41,439 --> 01:13:45,439 Speaker 24: Let's take another closer look here. Yeah, that's definitely corner. 1555 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:48,160 Speaker 24: I'll be surprised if anything, Yes, it is they. 1556 01:13:48,520 --> 01:13:50,639 Speaker 3: You wonder what mls' refs though, Steve. 1557 01:13:50,400 --> 01:13:52,840 Speaker 17: If you do, let I want to same page. 1558 01:13:52,880 --> 01:13:54,479 Speaker 2: And here's the short corner that comes in and a 1559 01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:57,600 Speaker 2: ball popped over but trying to reach Jackson, Reagan at 1560 01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:00,880 Speaker 2: the backs post and Jonathan Bond they're in. Goalkeeper does 1561 01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:02,760 Speaker 2: a good job to grab that one out of the 1562 01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:04,680 Speaker 2: air and Houston will work out of the back. Here 1563 01:14:04,920 --> 01:14:07,639 Speaker 2: we're thirteen minutes into this game in Houston, Texas Shell 1564 01:14:07,800 --> 01:14:12,760 Speaker 2: Energy Stadium. It's Sounders zero Houston zero. Jackson Felt Steve 1565 01:14:12,840 --> 01:14:16,760 Speaker 2: Zachwani on the Seattle Soccer Radio stream channel on iHeartRadio. 1566 01:14:17,240 --> 01:14:19,920 Speaker 2: As a ball up here is to the left side 1567 01:14:19,960 --> 01:14:23,519 Speaker 2: for Houston is cut away. Sounders trying to work quickly, 1568 01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:26,840 Speaker 2: but that ball is cut out for Houston and will 1569 01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:29,000 Speaker 2: go for a throw in here on the right side 1570 01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:35,880 Speaker 2: here is heyesus Ferrara now working with Burnell and working 1571 01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:38,680 Speaker 2: with Kilanie in this triangle, and the Sounders will work 1572 01:14:38,760 --> 01:14:42,920 Speaker 2: in possession from their back no pressure and no press 1573 01:14:43,160 --> 01:14:46,200 Speaker 2: from the Houston dynamo at this time for a Ben 1574 01:14:46,280 --> 01:14:49,240 Speaker 2: Olsen team that right now this season, they're two to 1575 01:14:49,320 --> 01:14:54,000 Speaker 2: zero to two here in MLS play enter the weekend ninth. 1576 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:55,200 Speaker 3: Place in the Western Conference. 1577 01:14:55,960 --> 01:14:58,160 Speaker 2: Their last game a couple weeks ago was a four 1578 01:14:58,240 --> 01:15:01,880 Speaker 2: to three loss in Dallas, a back and forth Barnberger 1579 01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:06,519 Speaker 2: that really highlighted how Houston's backline can absolutely be beat. 1580 01:15:06,760 --> 01:15:08,679 Speaker 2: As there's a giveaway here in the middle of the park. 1581 01:15:08,720 --> 01:15:11,560 Speaker 2: Sounders work a little bit too easy with possession and 1582 01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:14,439 Speaker 2: Houston take it away and a beautiful slide tackle will 1583 01:15:14,479 --> 01:15:17,840 Speaker 2: earn possession back for the Sounders. Here. They'll work it 1584 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:21,800 Speaker 2: here with Tino Lopez and eventually hayesus Ferrara will find 1585 01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:24,439 Speaker 2: Jackson Reagan and the Sounders can breathe and nearly another 1586 01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:27,240 Speaker 2: giveaway from Jackson and Reagan slides the ball all the 1587 01:15:27,280 --> 01:15:29,760 Speaker 2: way over to the left from new that's nearly taken 1588 01:15:29,800 --> 01:15:32,400 Speaker 2: away right in front of goal by the Dynamo. But 1589 01:15:32,520 --> 01:15:34,840 Speaker 2: the Sounders will have a second to breathe after that. 1590 01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:36,360 Speaker 2: Scare Steve Yeah. 1591 01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:38,880 Speaker 24: And Jackson go away with a couple of sound As 1592 01:15:38,920 --> 01:15:42,400 Speaker 24: guys haven't been as lucky some slight giveaways and Dynamo 1593 01:15:42,520 --> 01:15:44,000 Speaker 24: team is the way that's set up right now. They're 1594 01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:45,920 Speaker 24: gonna pounce on any little giveaway, a mistake. And you 1595 01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:47,920 Speaker 24: know it's a Dynamoe team that can create on their own. 1596 01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:49,880 Speaker 24: You don't have to aid them and assist them. And 1597 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:52,120 Speaker 24: so I think you got clean up the possession, especially 1598 01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:53,599 Speaker 24: un the road, but in a ton of these type 1599 01:15:53,600 --> 01:15:55,559 Speaker 24: of games, and when you're away from home, the possession 1600 01:15:55,560 --> 01:15:57,600 Speaker 24: becomes that much more valuable. You go hold onto the 1601 01:15:57,640 --> 01:15:59,839 Speaker 24: board and not allowed a home team to gain momentum 1602 01:16:00,280 --> 01:16:01,200 Speaker 24: the mistakes, you'll create. 1603 01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:02,479 Speaker 2: It and the Sounders are holding on. They're now have 1604 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:04,719 Speaker 2: it on the left side with Paul Rothrock, but Rothrock 1605 01:16:04,720 --> 01:16:07,800 Speaker 2: will have to play it back to know who the 1606 01:16:07,880 --> 01:16:10,680 Speaker 2: Sounders play with that back three when they have possession 1607 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:13,160 Speaker 2: and it will be new who on this left side 1608 01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:16,800 Speaker 2: tries to split a line, but it's hit back from 1609 01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:21,200 Speaker 2: a Houston midfielder. And now it's Christian who has come 1610 01:16:21,280 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 2: back nearly right next to Jackson Reagan who will find 1611 01:16:24,080 --> 01:16:28,160 Speaker 2: Tino Lopez up here playing a right back spot as 1612 01:16:28,280 --> 01:16:30,960 Speaker 2: Kalani has advanced almost to the right wing. Here with 1613 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:35,800 Speaker 2: the Sounders in possession, sixteen minutes into this game, no 1614 01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:39,840 Speaker 2: score between the Sounders and Houston Dynamo so far, looks 1615 01:16:39,880 --> 01:16:41,680 Speaker 2: like the rain has led off as the Sounders working 1616 01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:44,200 Speaker 2: in possession from the middle. Here's Christian rolled on moving 1617 01:16:44,280 --> 01:16:47,000 Speaker 2: from right to left now sliding a ball, but it's 1618 01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:50,799 Speaker 2: tipped way high up in the air, and Houston Dynamo 1619 01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:52,400 Speaker 2: I believe will win possession on this one. 1620 01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:53,519 Speaker 3: A clearance will go back. 1621 01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:58,720 Speaker 2: Can Tino Lopez win that he can with Christian with 1622 01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:03,960 Speaker 2: heyesus Frera on this right side now as the Sounders 1623 01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:07,439 Speaker 2: will continue to hold this ball just five yards inside 1624 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:10,880 Speaker 2: of the Houston half. No players other than Andrew Thomas 1625 01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:13,840 Speaker 2: for Seattle or in that other side of the field. 1626 01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:20,559 Speaker 2: Christian rolled on to Reagan, to Tino and Steve. Tino 1627 01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:24,280 Speaker 2: Lopez what a story he is after being drafted by 1628 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:26,400 Speaker 2: the Sounders in twenty twenty four. We'll tell his full 1629 01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 2: story later on, but the Sounders drafted him in twenty 1630 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:32,200 Speaker 2: twenty four. He's played with thea Coma Defiance. He had 1631 01:17:32,400 --> 01:17:35,719 Speaker 2: fifteen appearances with them last year. Signed to the first 1632 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:39,040 Speaker 2: team on March seventeenth, and he has been very, very 1633 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:42,840 Speaker 2: good in his couple starts. He had two clearances off 1634 01:17:42,880 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 2: the line against San Jose and Minnesota, big reasons why 1635 01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:48,280 Speaker 2: the Sounders were able to keep clean sheets in both 1636 01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:48,920 Speaker 2: of those games. 1637 01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:51,479 Speaker 24: Yeah, he's under the trust of his coaching stuff and 1638 01:17:51,640 --> 01:17:53,680 Speaker 24: of his Teammate's not easy to do when you stepping in, 1639 01:17:53,800 --> 01:17:55,840 Speaker 24: but they see him enough in training. He's been in 1640 01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:58,080 Speaker 24: the club system with the defense, as you mentioned, and 1641 01:17:58,120 --> 01:18:00,439 Speaker 24: he hasn't himself done when he stepped into as San 1642 01:18:00,479 --> 01:18:02,799 Speaker 24: Jose was a very tough game defensively, and he stepped 1643 01:18:02,840 --> 01:18:04,120 Speaker 24: up to the plate, and so no, that would be 1644 01:18:04,120 --> 01:18:06,400 Speaker 24: another tough test, buzz I said, he's on the trust 1645 01:18:06,840 --> 01:18:08,400 Speaker 24: of these coaching stuff and his teammates. 1646 01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:08,679 Speaker 3: Already. 1647 01:18:08,720 --> 01:18:10,840 Speaker 2: He's kilanie of trying to find Burnell in the top 1648 01:18:10,880 --> 01:18:13,080 Speaker 2: of the box, but it's cut out from a Houston 1649 01:18:13,120 --> 01:18:15,479 Speaker 2: defender who will send it all the way back to 1650 01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:19,200 Speaker 2: Andrew Thomas. I believe Jackson Reagan was the furthest back 1651 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 2: sounder on a field player, and he was about ten 1652 01:18:22,439 --> 01:18:25,320 Speaker 2: yards of fifteen yards inside of Houston's half in that 1653 01:18:25,479 --> 01:18:28,000 Speaker 2: moment where they were just holding possession for what it 1654 01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:30,240 Speaker 2: seemed like a good three minutes there. Now the sounder 1655 01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:32,360 Speaker 2: is working up this left side with Ferrera to the 1656 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:34,479 Speaker 2: middle of the park to Ariol who's slid in from 1657 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:37,439 Speaker 2: his right side as Kolanie has gone way up on 1658 01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:41,040 Speaker 2: the right. You see Ariola coming off of that and 1659 01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:44,320 Speaker 2: kind of tucking in there playing next to Ferrera. 1660 01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:46,680 Speaker 3: And now here's Burnell getting up on the right. 1661 01:18:46,760 --> 01:18:48,639 Speaker 2: He'll try to slide the ball into Mazovski, but it's 1662 01:18:48,760 --> 01:18:51,360 Speaker 2: just wide and taken away from a Houston defender. And 1663 01:18:51,400 --> 01:18:54,040 Speaker 2: now the Dynamo will look to possess, but it's a 1664 01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:56,479 Speaker 2: giveaway and goes out of bounds. It will be a 1665 01:18:56,600 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 2: Houston throw here in the nineteenth minute zero zero Sounder 1666 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:00,519 Speaker 2: and Dynamo. 1667 01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:03,120 Speaker 24: Yeah, but very good last few three four minutes from 1668 01:19:03,120 --> 01:19:05,559 Speaker 24: the sounders. They've cooled the temperature well, and what they've 1669 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:07,160 Speaker 24: done is just kept the board and it's not really 1670 01:19:07,280 --> 01:19:10,200 Speaker 24: sincessarily seeking to hurt Houston right away. It's taken away 1671 01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:12,160 Speaker 24: a bit of the momentum the Dynamo had, and now 1672 01:19:12,200 --> 01:19:13,920 Speaker 24: the challenge is the next five minutes can you build 1673 01:19:13,960 --> 01:19:15,960 Speaker 24: on that? Can you start to do something with your possession. 1674 01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:17,800 Speaker 24: But we've seen a ton of touch es centrally for 1675 01:19:17,880 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 24: Paula Rudo coming in off the wing, and that means 1676 01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:22,080 Speaker 24: at times Coloni has to be the high wide man 1677 01:19:22,160 --> 01:19:23,760 Speaker 24: on the right hand side, which I think is more 1678 01:19:23,800 --> 01:19:25,760 Speaker 24: than capable and happy to do. And the more you 1679 01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:28,080 Speaker 24: get Christian rodun Schneider on the board and you can 1680 01:19:28,160 --> 01:19:30,000 Speaker 24: make the game. I think you start to pin this 1681 01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:32,400 Speaker 24: animal team further back and it keeps them morning from 1682 01:19:32,439 --> 01:19:34,360 Speaker 24: your goal and stops them being as dangerous as they 1683 01:19:34,400 --> 01:19:36,000 Speaker 24: were in the opening twelve thirteen. 1684 01:19:35,720 --> 01:19:38,680 Speaker 2: Minutes on a Houston throwing, they were pinned back and 1685 01:19:38,800 --> 01:19:40,720 Speaker 2: they kick when out of bounds, and I'd do a 1686 01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:44,720 Speaker 2: Sounders throwing here from about ten yards inside Houston's half, 1687 01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:47,200 Speaker 2: and now Sounders will once again work with possession. 1688 01:19:47,320 --> 01:19:49,200 Speaker 3: Absolutely no press from the Dynamo. 1689 01:19:49,640 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 2: So the Sounders have sent Kilani way up that right 1690 01:19:52,439 --> 01:19:53,680 Speaker 2: side and now we'll try to work up on the 1691 01:19:53,760 --> 01:19:55,920 Speaker 2: left side. Here's Rothrock trying to cross it in trying 1692 01:19:55,960 --> 01:19:58,439 Speaker 2: to find Mazaski, gets cut out from a Houston defender 1693 01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:00,600 Speaker 2: that was Antonio Carlos. And we'll go in for a 1694 01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:03,360 Speaker 2: Sounders thrown here from the left side with Ferreira and 1695 01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:06,040 Speaker 2: with Knew who now working on the left of the Sounders, 1696 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:08,920 Speaker 2: will maybe try to change the point of attacker Steve 1697 01:20:09,040 --> 01:20:11,679 Speaker 2: right now, it's just the Houston right now, just tucked 1698 01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:14,800 Speaker 2: back in their own end. The hero is Burnell, working 1699 01:20:14,840 --> 01:20:16,680 Speaker 2: on the left, tries to find Mazoski. A little given 1700 01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:19,759 Speaker 2: go with Ferrera. Shot is straight saved from Jonathan Bond. 1701 01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:23,840 Speaker 2: A little shot, a tap of shot for Jesus Ferira, 1702 01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:26,840 Speaker 2: and Jonathan Bond, diving safe to his left, gets a 1703 01:20:26,920 --> 01:20:29,040 Speaker 2: hand to it and keeps this match zero zero. 1704 01:20:29,320 --> 01:20:32,280 Speaker 24: Brilliant football, brilliant, brilliant football. And he sues Ferra's behind 1705 01:20:32,360 --> 01:20:33,040 Speaker 24: that the whole way. 1706 01:20:33,320 --> 01:20:33,720 Speaker 3: It's good. 1707 01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:36,120 Speaker 24: One to touch football off the board running the one 1708 01:20:36,160 --> 01:20:38,200 Speaker 24: he sues, gets the letter from Missovski. He has to 1709 01:20:38,240 --> 01:20:40,280 Speaker 24: go quickly. The pressures come from the defenders. Tries a 1710 01:20:40,320 --> 01:20:43,040 Speaker 24: little toe polk bust a goalkeeper. Bond gets down quickly 1711 01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:45,400 Speaker 24: strong left time, but the sound is beginning to part 1712 01:20:45,439 --> 01:20:48,519 Speaker 24: now because lots of possession, lots of good possession in 1713 01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:51,400 Speaker 24: the attacking half, and he sues ferrap beginning to find 1714 01:20:51,439 --> 01:20:53,880 Speaker 24: the pockets in there. And I love how direct he 1715 01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:56,040 Speaker 24: was around the box on that occasion. Couldn't quite get 1716 01:20:56,080 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 24: he's finished off cleanly because he was really shut down. 1717 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:00,160 Speaker 17: But the sounder is coming closer. 1718 01:21:01,400 --> 01:21:03,240 Speaker 2: As a sounder is now trying to work through with 1719 01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:05,800 Speaker 2: another creative give and go, but it's taken away from 1720 01:21:06,120 --> 01:21:08,760 Speaker 2: the Houston Dynamo. We'll see if they can build through 1721 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:11,400 Speaker 2: their forward ponce who's dropped all the way back into 1722 01:21:11,439 --> 01:21:15,200 Speaker 2: a defensive midfielders spot trying to get involved. They try 1723 01:21:15,240 --> 01:21:17,280 Speaker 2: a little give and go. This time it works. Can 1724 01:21:17,320 --> 01:21:18,920 Speaker 2: they sign a ball off the field? No, it will 1725 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:21,800 Speaker 2: be a nice interception there from Jackson Reagan, but he 1726 01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 2: taps it out for a Houston thrown right at the 1727 01:21:24,240 --> 01:21:27,800 Speaker 2: middle of the park spot. This Houston team was absolutely 1728 01:21:27,920 --> 01:21:30,200 Speaker 2: pinned far far back and it nearly led to what 1729 01:21:30,360 --> 01:21:32,280 Speaker 2: would be a Haesius. 1730 01:21:31,920 --> 01:21:33,080 Speaker 3: Ferreira's first goal of the year. 1731 01:21:33,080 --> 01:21:35,759 Speaker 2: He has a team high five assists, has not scored 1732 01:21:35,840 --> 01:21:38,519 Speaker 2: yet in twenty twenty six, and he nearly had the 1733 01:21:38,600 --> 01:21:39,479 Speaker 2: opener here tonight. 1734 01:21:40,080 --> 01:21:42,880 Speaker 17: Yeah, and he was a part of that movie. Only 1735 01:21:42,920 --> 01:21:43,760 Speaker 17: almost finished the move. 1736 01:21:43,840 --> 01:21:46,320 Speaker 24: He orchestrated the entire move dropped deep picked the bullet 1737 01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:48,840 Speaker 24: up pit a couple of one twos. If you try 1738 01:21:48,880 --> 01:21:50,920 Speaker 24: to find him in those pockets, the more you can do. 1739 01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:53,160 Speaker 24: That is very good of He's back to gold, but 1740 01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:55,559 Speaker 24: he's much much better facing the opponent's score. So can 1741 01:21:55,600 --> 01:21:57,400 Speaker 24: he get onto half Ton? Can he get turned around? 1742 01:21:57,680 --> 01:21:59,479 Speaker 24: And that connection between him and Misoski, you can't have 1743 01:21:59,520 --> 01:22:01,600 Speaker 24: too much space between him. He's pay very close to 1744 01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:04,360 Speaker 24: don He needs support, he needs some of his and So's. 1745 01:22:04,439 --> 01:22:07,200 Speaker 24: It is an absence of albut is very few can 1746 01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:09,080 Speaker 24: step in and field that gut just as well. 1747 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:11,360 Speaker 2: A Houston long ball up the left side is taken 1748 01:22:11,400 --> 01:22:14,080 Speaker 2: away from Kolonie Cozaimsey, a brilliant pray from Kilanne to 1749 01:22:14,160 --> 01:22:16,400 Speaker 2: step up, tip it to himself and send it on 1750 01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:19,000 Speaker 2: back to Andrew Thomas. Here we're twenty two minutes here 1751 01:22:19,400 --> 01:22:22,000 Speaker 2: in the game at Shell Energy Stadium. It's Sounders zero 1752 01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:25,600 Speaker 2: Dynamo zero, and this score update is presented by Toyota 1753 01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:27,960 Speaker 2: as the Sounders will now work along their back line 1754 01:22:28,000 --> 01:22:30,920 Speaker 2: a little more pressed from Houston, and you wonder Steve 1755 01:22:31,040 --> 01:22:33,680 Speaker 2: after so much time where they were just you know, 1756 01:22:33,920 --> 01:22:36,120 Speaker 2: just stuck inside of their own half. When Ben Olsten 1757 01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:38,200 Speaker 2: was gonna say, let's press a little bit, because we 1758 01:22:38,280 --> 01:22:41,479 Speaker 2: can't just let Seattle pass this ball inside of our 1759 01:22:41,560 --> 01:22:44,040 Speaker 2: half and just let this game sit like that. As 1760 01:22:44,080 --> 01:22:46,719 Speaker 2: the Sounders now have some space working up the right side, 1761 01:22:46,880 --> 01:22:50,760 Speaker 2: here's Ariola the Kilanie Colonie chance across and just mishits it. 1762 01:22:51,200 --> 01:22:54,160 Speaker 2: Kilani had a great chance to cross there inside the box, 1763 01:22:54,439 --> 01:22:56,639 Speaker 2: but he mishits it and it will be a goalkick 1764 01:22:56,760 --> 01:22:59,200 Speaker 2: for the Houston Dynamo. We'll mention that tonight's match is 1765 01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:02,200 Speaker 2: presented by the West Washington Toyota Dealers and also Sounders 1766 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:05,479 Speaker 2: EPs Soccer is presented by Providence, Swedish official healthcare partner 1767 01:23:05,520 --> 01:23:06,200 Speaker 2: of Sounders FC. 1768 01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:09,040 Speaker 17: Yeah, and Colonie and just fluffing these lines. 1769 01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:10,720 Speaker 24: And it's a good move by the Sounders again, and 1770 01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:12,120 Speaker 24: I like what it's doing here with a Banas on 1771 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:15,360 Speaker 24: the right hand side, with Paula Riola really tucking inside. 1772 01:23:15,400 --> 01:23:17,559 Speaker 24: He gets inside all the way and then Colony has 1773 01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:19,000 Speaker 24: to make that wit from the right hand side. He 1774 01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:21,640 Speaker 24: didn't allow occasion the apostles right. The run was right 1775 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:24,360 Speaker 24: Onfermising was a final board. I think Coloney is if 1776 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:26,080 Speaker 24: I'm him, I'm blaming the weather. It's a little bit wet. 1777 01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:28,160 Speaker 24: Didn't expect this kind of surface, but just caught these 1778 01:23:28,200 --> 01:23:30,479 Speaker 24: lines wrong there. But again a very encouraging sign off 1779 01:23:30,520 --> 01:23:33,160 Speaker 24: to a shaky opening. Twelve minutes. It's been no sound 1780 01:23:33,200 --> 01:23:33,960 Speaker 24: it's last ten minutes. 1781 01:23:33,960 --> 01:23:36,559 Speaker 2: A lot of people in Houston wearing ponchos tonight it's 1782 01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:39,519 Speaker 2: still the light rain, but the heavy heavy rain has 1783 01:23:39,600 --> 01:23:43,160 Speaker 2: stopped in no thunderstorms, and now Houston has gone back 1784 01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:45,599 Speaker 2: to not pressing. It is interesting, Steve, for a team 1785 01:23:45,640 --> 01:23:49,120 Speaker 2: that's given up eight goals in their games so far, sorry, 1786 01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:51,960 Speaker 2: nine goals in their four games so far, they've scored eight. 1787 01:23:52,400 --> 01:23:54,400 Speaker 2: And I'll stop there as Sounders that are attacking down 1788 01:23:54,439 --> 01:23:56,200 Speaker 2: the right side, and it'll be cut out for a 1789 01:23:56,320 --> 01:23:58,720 Speaker 2: throw in here for Paul Riola here and a chance 1790 01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:00,640 Speaker 2: for the Sounders maybe with a long throwing here in 1791 01:24:00,680 --> 01:24:03,160 Speaker 2: the twenty fourth minute. Get back to that in a second, 1792 01:24:03,200 --> 01:24:05,200 Speaker 2: as they will throw it in and go deep to 1793 01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:08,559 Speaker 2: Tino Lopez. And as the Sounders now once again about 1794 01:24:08,720 --> 01:24:12,599 Speaker 2: ten yards inside the Houston half is their furthest man 1795 01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:15,160 Speaker 2: back but now Houston may be a chance to break 1796 01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:18,240 Speaker 2: is that's an interception and here is Bogush on that 1797 01:24:18,360 --> 01:24:21,800 Speaker 2: right side working against a new who. Bogush will have 1798 01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:24,000 Speaker 2: to send it back out as now the Sounders will 1799 01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:27,760 Speaker 2: get back in their defensive form here and we'll see 1800 01:24:27,760 --> 01:24:31,640 Speaker 2: if Houston have a chance to break them. But a 1801 01:24:31,800 --> 01:24:34,600 Speaker 2: nice line breaking pass. We'll send the ball up a 1802 01:24:34,640 --> 01:24:36,679 Speaker 2: little bit forward now to the left side to the Giarme. 1803 01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:39,160 Speaker 2: Gear May has some space working against Klonie Across comes 1804 01:24:39,200 --> 01:24:42,200 Speaker 2: in headed away from Jackson Reagan. Ball will come down 1805 01:24:42,280 --> 01:24:45,439 Speaker 2: and bounce, no foul called. Houston retains possession here with 1806 01:24:45,520 --> 01:24:49,000 Speaker 2: Negri on the left side to giere May. Hear May 1807 01:24:49,160 --> 01:24:51,479 Speaker 2: working on Kolania again and Klania has a lot of 1808 01:24:51,520 --> 01:24:53,519 Speaker 2: help with Christian Roldan and Paul Ariola. 1809 01:24:53,880 --> 01:24:56,000 Speaker 3: He will have to do just retreat it back out. 1810 01:24:57,160 --> 01:24:59,439 Speaker 2: Houston trying to find some space or on the left side, 1811 01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:03,599 Speaker 2: but defenders are locking them down very very quickly. Houston's 1812 01:25:03,600 --> 01:25:06,960 Speaker 2: gonna have to find another way in this very compact 1813 01:25:07,040 --> 01:25:08,880 Speaker 2: sound Or defense which is retreated into this. 1814 01:25:10,680 --> 01:25:15,200 Speaker 3: Two lines of four. Negre going deep into that. 1815 01:25:15,280 --> 01:25:17,080 Speaker 2: Left corner from gear May, but that ball will be 1816 01:25:17,160 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 2: out for a Sounders thrown here in the twenty fifth 1817 01:25:19,360 --> 01:25:20,200 Speaker 2: minute Steve and. 1818 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:22,320 Speaker 24: The sound is doing well the defensive, but just frustration 1819 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:25,439 Speaker 24: the Houston Anamhey, I can't compare too many to the 1820 01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:28,040 Speaker 24: great Chad Marshall, but that's the territory that Jackson Reagan's 1821 01:25:28,040 --> 01:25:30,360 Speaker 24: playing out right now. In terms of anything into the box, 1822 01:25:30,400 --> 01:25:32,599 Speaker 24: he seems to be first all the time. And that's 1823 01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:35,120 Speaker 24: not by luck, that's by design, that's by positioning, and 1824 01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:37,599 Speaker 24: it's been a massive reason why the Sounder team has 1825 01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:40,080 Speaker 24: been able to concede so few go so far this season. 1826 01:25:40,120 --> 01:25:41,920 Speaker 24: So anything that's coming up from the why das He's 1827 01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,280 Speaker 24: very commanding in the box right now. Jackson Reagan, he 1828 01:25:44,320 --> 01:25:46,479 Speaker 24: did get a special shout out from Brian Spresser this morning, 1829 01:25:46,680 --> 01:25:49,120 Speaker 24: and you can see exactly why he's been so pivotal 1830 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:51,280 Speaker 24: to what this team has done defensively, especially in the 1831 01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:52,880 Speaker 24: absence of his defensive partner. 1832 01:25:52,960 --> 01:25:54,880 Speaker 3: Y ball way down the field. 1833 01:25:55,600 --> 01:25:58,800 Speaker 2: Try to find a running Paul Rothrock, who says the 1834 01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:02,360 Speaker 2: ball came off of a Houston defender, but I believe 1835 01:26:02,400 --> 01:26:04,720 Speaker 2: a foul might have been called. Foul was called on 1836 01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:08,519 Speaker 2: Paul Rothrock here deep inside of Houston's end and they 1837 01:26:08,600 --> 01:26:12,280 Speaker 2: will have possession here. It is interesting the moment Houston 1838 01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:14,880 Speaker 2: finally decided all right, we are gonna press, we are 1839 01:26:14,960 --> 01:26:17,439 Speaker 2: gonna send our guys up the field. The moment that happened, Steve, 1840 01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:20,200 Speaker 2: that's the moment that Houston's back line gave up what 1841 01:26:20,240 --> 01:26:22,719 Speaker 2: could have been a great chance for Kalanie on that misshit. 1842 01:26:23,040 --> 01:26:25,800 Speaker 2: So I wonder if that tells Ben Olsen maybe we 1843 01:26:25,960 --> 01:26:28,599 Speaker 2: can't press because the moment we do, the first second 1844 01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:30,479 Speaker 2: we press, we nearly give. 1845 01:26:30,479 --> 01:26:30,920 Speaker 3: Up a goal. 1846 01:26:31,560 --> 01:26:33,479 Speaker 2: That is a warning sign I think for the head 1847 01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:36,679 Speaker 2: coach that maybe we can't play like that. Especially Meanwhile, Steve, 1848 01:26:36,680 --> 01:26:39,959 Speaker 2: we haven't even mentioned this. Houston is missing their best defender, 1849 01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:42,920 Speaker 2: Eric sa Fiatchenko, who's out with the red card suspension 1850 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:45,200 Speaker 2: from that game against Dallas a couple of weeks ago. 1851 01:26:45,560 --> 01:26:46,080 Speaker 3: He's gone. 1852 01:26:46,400 --> 01:26:49,519 Speaker 2: They are having to slide some fullbacks into play center 1853 01:26:49,600 --> 01:26:52,840 Speaker 2: back today. So maybe that tells Ben Olsen, hey, we 1854 01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:55,120 Speaker 2: can't press because we are gonna be under it whenever 1855 01:26:55,200 --> 01:26:55,360 Speaker 2: we do. 1856 01:26:55,680 --> 01:26:57,679 Speaker 24: Yes, the chinanch you'll have and I think the default 1857 01:26:57,680 --> 01:26:59,680 Speaker 24: as a cult changer just go to protective mode. Can 1858 01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:02,640 Speaker 24: you be numbers into space is denied the sound of 1859 01:27:02,680 --> 01:27:05,640 Speaker 24: space deny their creative players the chance's opportunity to get 1860 01:27:05,640 --> 01:27:08,040 Speaker 24: in the boat under half Ton and face off back line. 1861 01:27:08,160 --> 01:27:10,000 Speaker 24: But at the same time he wants to Unlucky's offensive 1862 01:27:10,040 --> 01:27:11,400 Speaker 24: group and to do that you've got to be brave. 1863 01:27:11,439 --> 01:27:13,479 Speaker 2: Well, here is their offense for Houston and working through 1864 01:27:13,479 --> 01:27:15,080 Speaker 2: the middle with gear Man out of the left side, 1865 01:27:15,080 --> 01:27:17,559 Speaker 2: with Annelly and Nelly looking for a space to cross, 1866 01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:20,680 Speaker 2: but right there is Klannie and Tino to shut him down. 1867 01:27:20,760 --> 01:27:22,920 Speaker 2: Now a cross over to the right side, headed down 1868 01:27:23,000 --> 01:27:25,240 Speaker 2: trying to find bogush. But a great job by Paul 1869 01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:27,360 Speaker 2: Rothrock to cut in and take that away and just 1870 01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:28,800 Speaker 2: clear it all the way back to the middle of 1871 01:27:28,880 --> 01:27:31,000 Speaker 2: the park where Houston will have to reset. Here in 1872 01:27:31,040 --> 01:27:34,080 Speaker 2: the twenty eighth minute zero zero Sounders Dynamo at Shell 1873 01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:37,280 Speaker 2: Energy Stadium, as Houston now will trying to work through 1874 01:27:37,280 --> 01:27:40,000 Speaker 2: the middle. This is about as good as they've looked 1875 01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:42,160 Speaker 2: the Dynamo have since the first five minutes of this game. 1876 01:27:42,200 --> 01:27:44,679 Speaker 2: And right as I say that, a really bad giveaway 1877 01:27:44,720 --> 01:27:47,360 Speaker 2: from matteoush Bagosh goes out of bounds for a Sounder's 1878 01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:48,439 Speaker 2: thrown on the far side. 1879 01:27:49,520 --> 01:27:53,240 Speaker 24: That's a classive Commentarious Clus right right on cue right 1880 01:27:53,320 --> 01:27:53,799 Speaker 24: on Cull. 1881 01:27:53,800 --> 01:27:56,680 Speaker 2: Maybe I should say a few more Houston. They've been 1882 01:27:56,760 --> 01:27:59,080 Speaker 2: sniffing the goal. They're really good at the back line, 1883 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:01,799 Speaker 2: you know, they never get goals. Maybe I can continue 1884 01:28:01,800 --> 01:28:04,760 Speaker 2: to jink some is that throwing will be taken immediately 1885 01:28:04,840 --> 01:28:07,640 Speaker 2: away by the Dynamo and the Dynamo potentially looking to 1886 01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:10,120 Speaker 2: break here switching from the middle to the left with 1887 01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:15,040 Speaker 2: Annelly looking for some space once again. On Kilane slides 1888 01:28:15,080 --> 01:28:16,679 Speaker 2: a ball in a little given go with an Nelly, 1889 01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:18,479 Speaker 2: but he has no space and he'll have to send 1890 01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:20,400 Speaker 2: it back out to some massacre. 1891 01:28:20,600 --> 01:28:22,000 Speaker 3: Now the gear May on the left side. 1892 01:28:22,000 --> 01:28:24,240 Speaker 2: Gear May working into the box, trying to get creative, 1893 01:28:24,320 --> 01:28:25,080 Speaker 2: finding some space. 1894 01:28:25,200 --> 01:28:27,160 Speaker 3: Shot save Andrew Thomas. 1895 01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:29,880 Speaker 2: What a save here in the twenty ninth minute, gear 1896 01:28:29,960 --> 01:28:32,880 Speaker 2: May found that inch of space and Andrew Thomas came 1897 01:28:32,960 --> 01:28:33,280 Speaker 2: up big. 1898 01:28:33,680 --> 01:28:35,880 Speaker 24: Oh, that's magical from Gebadet has to be said. He 1899 01:28:35,960 --> 01:28:38,080 Speaker 24: just dribbles his way from the sma's perspective if it's 1900 01:28:38,120 --> 01:28:40,880 Speaker 24: way too easy, drives through two, three, four players and 1901 01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:43,559 Speaker 24: once he's inside the box, he's just about eight ten 1902 01:28:43,680 --> 01:28:45,960 Speaker 24: yards from gold and looking for that top corner and 1903 01:28:46,200 --> 01:28:49,280 Speaker 24: strong right behind from Andrew Thomas. That's a fantastic save 1904 01:28:49,520 --> 01:28:51,640 Speaker 24: the Sounders. You have to defend the corner here by 1905 01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:54,680 Speaker 24: the goalkeeper coming up clush there as a Dynamo with 1906 01:28:54,800 --> 01:28:56,000 Speaker 24: the best of potatos a game so. 1907 01:28:56,080 --> 01:28:58,360 Speaker 2: Far, that is a tremendous job.

Hey shues Pharaoh's 1977 01:31:59,520 --> 01:32:02,320 Speaker 24: finding as was Christian roll done, began to dominate the 1978 01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:04,840 Speaker 24: board centrally and then finding the outlets on the right 1979 01:32:04,880 --> 01:32:08,000 Speaker 24: hand side, which was mostly Colonie at times Avriolo. Then 1980 01:32:08,000 --> 01:32:09,800 Speaker 24: the left hand side was rough frok. Haven't he knew 1981 01:32:09,800 --> 01:32:11,880 Speaker 24: who get too high in the attack. But the last 1982 01:32:11,920 --> 01:32:14,439 Speaker 24: five minutes Geme has come into his own. He's beginning 1983 01:32:14,479 --> 01:32:16,680 Speaker 24: to find the game. He's found the flow and his 1984 01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:18,720 Speaker 24: eyes begins to dictate the tempo of the game. The 1985 01:32:18,800 --> 01:32:19,360 Speaker 24: sound is back on. 1986 01:32:19,479 --> 01:32:21,559 Speaker 17: It's gotta be careful not to afford him too much space. 1987 01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:25,200 Speaker 2: Houston working on this left side, trying to cut in 1988 01:32:25,280 --> 01:32:27,200 Speaker 2: his gear May again, trying to do what he did 1989 01:32:27,240 --> 01:32:29,479 Speaker 2: a few minutes ago, trying to weave FuMB some space 1990 01:32:29,640 --> 01:32:31,400 Speaker 2: to a wide open man on the right side cutting 1991 01:32:31,479 --> 01:32:33,200 Speaker 2: in and a great job. I knew who to poke 1992 01:32:33,280 --> 01:32:38,519 Speaker 2: that ball away as Seattle keeps the ball there just 1993 01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:40,519 Speaker 2: at the edge of the final third for Houston who 1994 01:32:40,600 --> 01:32:43,960 Speaker 2: is now working on that right side trying to find 1995 01:32:44,000 --> 01:32:46,400 Speaker 2: some space. And then potentially a fouther on the edge 1996 01:32:46,439 --> 01:32:49,439 Speaker 2: of the box, but no call as materious Burgouse was 1997 01:32:49,520 --> 01:32:52,320 Speaker 2: looking for a foul, looking for a penalty on the edge. 1998 01:32:52,640 --> 01:32:53,519 Speaker 3: It did not come. 1999 01:32:55,240 --> 01:32:58,360 Speaker 24: But still continuing to apply pressure is the Dynamo and 2000 01:32:58,520 --> 01:33:00,080 Speaker 24: again the sound is definitely. 2001 01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:01,559 Speaker 17: Got to just absorb this a little bit. 2002 01:33:01,680 --> 01:33:04,240 Speaker 24: You have to absorb some of this pressure just a 2003 01:33:04,280 --> 01:33:06,559 Speaker 24: little bit here because you expect this on the road 2004 01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:07,120 Speaker 24: in MLS. 2005 01:33:07,200 --> 01:33:08,519 Speaker 17: It's been happening since day one. 2006 01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:11,640 Speaker 24: The home team will have their moments, and right now 2007 01:33:11,720 --> 01:33:14,719 Speaker 24: the Dynamo are definitely on top, definitely creating their moments. 2008 01:33:15,040 --> 01:33:17,080 Speaker 24: And if you're the sound is just absorbed this and 2009 01:33:17,160 --> 01:33:18,479 Speaker 24: then maybe for the sound as you kind of go 2010 01:33:18,520 --> 01:33:20,080 Speaker 24: away from what you normally do, which the sound is 2011 01:33:20,120 --> 01:33:22,879 Speaker 24: what we know. What they do is in possession, dominate 2012 01:33:22,960 --> 01:33:25,320 Speaker 24: the ball, create chances, and right now you might just 2013 01:33:25,360 --> 01:33:27,000 Speaker 24: have to play a little bit more in transition, must 2014 01:33:27,040 --> 01:33:29,559 Speaker 24: be a little bit more on the back foot trying 2015 01:33:29,560 --> 01:33:31,760 Speaker 24: to spring runners in behind. I mean, Musosky's got to 2016 01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:33,680 Speaker 24: find his groove for rare rat Time's gotta be the 2017 01:33:33,720 --> 01:33:36,519 Speaker 24: one making runs behind and definitely your two wingers port 2018 01:33:36,560 --> 01:33:38,680 Speaker 24: Ariola and port Rothrock gotta make runs in. 2019 01:33:38,680 --> 01:33:43,120 Speaker 2: Behind a Seattle now here in the thirty third minute, 2020 01:33:43,720 --> 01:33:46,320 Speaker 2: the ball will go out here for a throw in 2021 01:33:46,400 --> 01:33:47,000 Speaker 2: for Houston. 2022 01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:50,600 Speaker 3: As we know. 2023 01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:51,519 Speaker 17: Lots of. 2024 01:33:53,479 --> 01:33:56,599 Speaker 2: Houston seats open tonight at Shell Energy Stadium with all 2025 01:33:56,720 --> 01:34:00,800 Speaker 2: the weather, a crowd that is not it is loud 2026 01:34:00,840 --> 01:34:04,400 Speaker 2: as Houston normally has it with their twenty thousand seat stadium. 2027 01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:08,280 Speaker 2: Ball Houston trying to play with possession, playing with a 2028 01:34:08,280 --> 01:34:11,800 Speaker 2: little bit of fire against Hasu's Ferrara and Negri does 2029 01:34:11,840 --> 01:34:14,360 Speaker 2: a great job to clear that one away as Ferrera 2030 01:34:14,520 --> 01:34:17,120 Speaker 2: was close to taking that away there right there towards 2031 01:34:17,160 --> 01:34:17,719 Speaker 2: the end line. 2032 01:34:17,920 --> 01:34:20,439 Speaker 3: But Houston will now work here on the right. 2033 01:34:27,200 --> 01:34:30,320 Speaker 2: In Seattle now will not be pressing as Houston have 2034 01:34:30,439 --> 01:34:33,120 Speaker 2: possession here from their own end of the field and 2035 01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:36,160 Speaker 2: now working up this right side with Bogosh with Dwayne Holmes, 2036 01:34:36,280 --> 01:34:38,080 Speaker 2: Holmes on the overlap tries to cut a ball in. 2037 01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:41,200 Speaker 2: Bogoshe was able to pick it up and stay with it. 2038 01:34:41,560 --> 01:34:45,240 Speaker 2: Houston's still in that far right corner cuts the ball 2039 01:34:45,320 --> 01:34:48,200 Speaker 2: in long shot and it is just high. Did that 2040 01:34:48,240 --> 01:34:49,960 Speaker 2: take it aflection? It may it take it to deflection 2041 01:34:50,240 --> 01:34:53,120 Speaker 2: for a Houston corner. A long shot there from Boozat, 2042 01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:55,799 Speaker 2: I believe, and that will go out for another Houston 2043 01:34:55,840 --> 01:34:57,160 Speaker 2: corner here in the thirty fifth minutes. 2044 01:34:57,200 --> 01:34:58,519 Speaker 17: Yeah, and the home team's on tip right now. 2045 01:34:58,680 --> 01:35:00,839 Speaker 24: The Sound is just so if hanging o the Dynamo 2046 01:35:01,000 --> 01:35:04,040 Speaker 24: with some quick successive corner kicks here on the occasion 2047 01:35:04,120 --> 01:35:06,639 Speaker 24: the deflection was enough to take it away from Andrew 2048 01:35:06,680 --> 01:35:09,280 Speaker 24: Thomas's goal, but only behind for corner foot. This Dynamo 2049 01:35:09,400 --> 01:35:12,200 Speaker 24: team has been applying the pressure in the last ten 2050 01:35:12,240 --> 01:35:14,160 Speaker 24: to fifteen minutes here since the sound has kind of 2051 01:35:14,240 --> 01:35:16,040 Speaker 24: had the middle patch of this game. 2052 01:35:17,200 --> 01:35:20,200 Speaker 2: Corner comes in hit away from Andrew Thomas, just punched 2053 01:35:20,800 --> 01:35:23,400 Speaker 2: and I believe if foul was called there so the 2054 01:35:23,479 --> 01:35:26,200 Speaker 2: Sounders will have a free kick here for Andrew Thomas 2055 01:35:26,320 --> 01:35:28,639 Speaker 2: from about the six yard box here as the clock 2056 01:35:28,680 --> 01:35:30,840 Speaker 2: strikes thirty five, we're into the thirty sixth minute here 2057 01:35:31,080 --> 01:35:33,960 Speaker 2: in this game at Shell Energy Stadium zero zero between 2058 01:35:34,320 --> 01:35:37,639 Speaker 2: the Seattle Sounders and Houston Dynamo tonight. For the Sounders, 2059 01:35:37,680 --> 01:35:41,080 Speaker 2: of course, this is their sixth match of the campaign, 2060 01:35:41,280 --> 01:35:43,519 Speaker 2: three to one in one so far in MLS play, 2061 01:35:43,600 --> 01:35:47,400 Speaker 2: coming off of a zero zero draw against Minnesota, and 2062 01:35:47,600 --> 01:35:50,160 Speaker 2: for the Sounder team that has given up two goals 2063 01:35:50,200 --> 01:35:53,840 Speaker 2: Steve in their five MLS games. Even Brian Schmetzro said 2064 01:35:53,880 --> 01:35:56,080 Speaker 2: he was surprised that they were able to keep the 2065 01:35:56,160 --> 01:35:58,880 Speaker 2: clean sheet in San Jose a few weeks ago. But 2066 01:35:58,960 --> 01:36:01,840 Speaker 2: they've been outstanding the offensively while dealing with many center 2067 01:36:01,880 --> 01:36:02,519 Speaker 2: back injuries. 2068 01:36:02,840 --> 01:36:05,080 Speaker 24: It's been impressive. It's been impressive, and especially you think 2069 01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:07,920 Speaker 24: of the really good back lines. Is a stable goalkeeper 2070 01:36:08,200 --> 01:36:09,960 Speaker 24: and the back point in front of him, lomnely doesn't 2071 01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:13,320 Speaker 24: change the build a rapport relationship, becaus haven't had that luxury. 2072 01:36:13,439 --> 01:36:15,840 Speaker 24: A lot of injuries, a lot of changes. And listen, 2073 01:36:15,920 --> 01:36:17,640 Speaker 24: those two goals came in the same game. So he's 2074 01:36:17,680 --> 01:36:19,800 Speaker 24: been four clean sheets out of the five games. Not 2075 01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:21,400 Speaker 24: easy to do in this MNS era. 2076 01:36:21,640 --> 01:36:23,600 Speaker 2: Here who's been working up this right side trying to 2077 01:36:23,600 --> 01:36:25,680 Speaker 2: find space, but knew who does a great job to 2078 01:36:25,800 --> 01:36:28,720 Speaker 2: get that ball back in Sounders' possession here as he 2079 01:36:28,880 --> 01:36:31,400 Speaker 2: was working on Dwayne Holmes and knew who did what 2080 01:36:31,520 --> 01:36:33,639 Speaker 2: he does best, and that's one on one defending. He's 2081 01:36:33,680 --> 01:36:35,080 Speaker 2: the best in the league at it. And he shows 2082 01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:38,000 Speaker 2: again why the Sounders now have the ball. Andrew Thomas 2083 01:36:38,120 --> 01:36:42,040 Speaker 2: tries to find I believe that was Rawthrock up there 2084 01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:45,759 Speaker 2: on the left side, the Sounders' key possession despite nearly 2085 01:36:45,800 --> 01:36:48,320 Speaker 2: giving it away. Now back to Andrew Thomas here. We 2086 01:36:48,439 --> 01:36:50,639 Speaker 2: will send another long one up here on the right 2087 01:36:51,000 --> 01:36:55,280 Speaker 2: with Ariola, but cannot connect with him. That was Mazowski, 2088 01:36:55,280 --> 01:36:59,560 Speaker 2: excuse me, mixed up sixteen to seventeen and nineteen and 2089 01:36:59,640 --> 01:37:01,599 Speaker 2: that ball go all the way back for a Houston 2090 01:37:01,680 --> 01:37:06,040 Speaker 2: possession here in the thirty seventh minute. Yeah, and the 2091 01:37:06,120 --> 01:37:07,760 Speaker 2: Sound is just a little bit too stretched right now. 2092 01:37:08,040 --> 01:37:10,799 Speaker 2: Misoski's upenating on an island, and I think that's pricky 2093 01:37:10,840 --> 01:37:12,880 Speaker 2: and not Branich Spencer off the bench. They're waving the 2094 01:37:12,920 --> 01:37:14,720 Speaker 2: hands of the air. I think he's gesturing exactly what 2095 01:37:14,800 --> 01:37:16,320 Speaker 2: I'm talking about. That you've got edge your line up 2096 01:37:16,400 --> 01:37:19,120 Speaker 2: for the Sounders. Anytime you clear the boat up right now, it's. 2097 01:37:19,000 --> 01:37:20,720 Speaker 24: Coming right back down right down the middle of the 2098 01:37:20,760 --> 01:37:22,800 Speaker 24: hall of this team because the sound is on edging 2099 01:37:22,840 --> 01:37:25,000 Speaker 24: the back line up you clear the boat, get your 2100 01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:27,000 Speaker 24: lines up maybe to the bottom of the set, and 2101 01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:29,840 Speaker 24: a circle that condensed the game squeeze it give Misofsky 2102 01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:33,160 Speaker 24: some positional support. Right now is very very isolated, and 2103 01:37:33,240 --> 01:37:35,400 Speaker 24: so the Sounders continue to clear the ball he used 2104 01:37:35,400 --> 01:37:38,160 Speaker 24: to receive it. Misoski's won against four. And then the 2105 01:37:38,479 --> 01:37:40,160 Speaker 24: pressure comes back from the whole team right away. 2106 01:37:40,200 --> 01:37:41,720 Speaker 3: And here's a dollar here up on the left side 2107 01:37:41,720 --> 01:37:42,160 Speaker 3: with Guermo. 2108 01:37:42,280 --> 01:37:44,120 Speaker 2: This is where the Houston has had their most success 2109 01:37:44,280 --> 01:37:46,240 Speaker 2: working with Giermi on the left, little give and go 2110 01:37:46,439 --> 01:37:48,840 Speaker 2: trying to find some space. Sanders Fenders cut that out 2111 01:37:48,880 --> 01:37:51,479 Speaker 2: well with a trio of guys who are right there 2112 01:37:51,479 --> 01:37:52,960 Speaker 2: in the middle of the box to take that ball 2113 01:37:52,960 --> 01:37:57,840 Speaker 2: away for the Green Shirts. And the foul call that 2114 01:37:57,840 --> 01:38:02,320 Speaker 2: I believe here as Rothrock was working back towards the line, 2115 01:38:02,439 --> 01:38:04,519 Speaker 2: he's down for a moment as the Sounders have a 2116 01:38:04,600 --> 01:38:05,760 Speaker 2: chance to breathe again. 2117 01:38:05,880 --> 01:38:08,000 Speaker 3: Here in the thirty eighth minute in a zero zero game. 2118 01:38:10,200 --> 01:38:12,400 Speaker 2: We'll mention that this corporated audio cast of Major League 2119 01:38:12,439 --> 01:38:15,840 Speaker 2: Soccer and I'll be retransmitted, reproduce, or rebroadcast without the 2120 01:38:15,880 --> 01:38:19,839 Speaker 2: express written consent of Major League Soccer. As Paul Rothrock 2121 01:38:20,000 --> 01:38:22,559 Speaker 2: just slowly getting up. Wi also mentioned that Sanders FC's 2122 01:38:22,640 --> 01:38:25,680 Speaker 2: Kids Club is better than ever. Sammy Squad offers young 2123 01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:29,439 Speaker 2: fans ages five through twelve, exclusive merchandise experiences and more. 2124 01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:33,800 Speaker 2: Go to sondrazefc dot com slash Kids dash Club. 2125 01:38:33,800 --> 01:38:34,719 Speaker 3: To join the pod. 2126 01:38:35,560 --> 01:38:38,919 Speaker 2: As the Rothrock is back up here and the Sounders 2127 01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:42,240 Speaker 2: will have a free kick and Andrade Felippe Androtti is 2128 01:38:42,280 --> 01:38:45,160 Speaker 2: given a yellow card there for that tackle on Paul Rothrock, 2129 01:38:47,800 --> 01:38:50,559 Speaker 2: and they will work in possession here from their end 2130 01:38:51,360 --> 01:38:56,040 Speaker 2: here in the thirty ninth minute, once again Houston maybe 2131 01:38:57,080 --> 01:39:00,639 Speaker 2: saying that they cannot afford to press the one time 2132 01:39:00,680 --> 01:39:03,559 Speaker 2: they have this entire game. It led to Seattle's best 2133 01:39:03,640 --> 01:39:06,680 Speaker 2: chance for a Kloni cross on that right side that 2134 01:39:06,760 --> 01:39:07,920 Speaker 2: could have been very dangerous. 2135 01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:08,920 Speaker 3: Now here is Sounders. 2136 01:39:08,960 --> 01:39:11,080 Speaker 2: We're on the left side, here's Rothrock. Rothrock has a 2137 01:39:11,120 --> 01:39:14,200 Speaker 2: runner at Ariola and the cross. It's a really good 2138 01:39:14,320 --> 01:39:17,840 Speaker 2: job by Felipe Andrade or believe that's Antonio Carlos coming 2139 01:39:17,920 --> 01:39:22,040 Speaker 2: in and tackling that away from Paul Rothrock. Nearly was 2140 01:39:22,520 --> 01:39:25,360 Speaker 2: just a half step away from putting the cross in 2141 01:39:25,720 --> 01:39:27,560 Speaker 2: to the far side Ariel, which would have been a 2142 01:39:27,600 --> 01:39:31,679 Speaker 2: Seattle goals Steve, but Antonio Carlos saves it for the Dynamo. 2143 01:39:32,080 --> 01:39:35,160 Speaker 24: Yeah, and almost from Paul Rofrog. That's the opperative word 2144 01:39:35,200 --> 01:39:36,439 Speaker 24: that almost he gets in behind. 2145 01:39:36,680 --> 01:39:37,360 Speaker 17: It's just when he. 2146 01:39:37,439 --> 01:39:39,120 Speaker 24: Has that look up, he's got to take another step 2147 01:39:39,120 --> 01:39:41,439 Speaker 24: before putting the cross in. Gives a Dallas backlan a 2148 01:39:41,520 --> 01:39:44,000 Speaker 24: chance to get back and make the challenge. If Rofrock 2149 01:39:44,000 --> 01:39:47,599 Speaker 24: could have got to cross away, Ariola was wide open 2150 01:39:47,640 --> 01:39:49,400 Speaker 24: on the back post to have been a simple step 2151 01:39:49,479 --> 01:39:51,920 Speaker 24: in for the former US men's national team played there. 2152 01:39:51,960 --> 01:39:53,680 Speaker 24: But Paul Roughrog, that's what you need to see more 2153 01:39:53,720 --> 01:39:55,400 Speaker 24: from him off the board running. Has it been able 2154 01:39:55,439 --> 01:39:58,519 Speaker 24: to get as involved and in behind, especially in his 2155 01:39:58,640 --> 01:40:01,240 Speaker 24: last fifteen minutes where it's been mostly the Houston Dynamo 2156 01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:01,640 Speaker 24: and so. 2157 01:40:01,720 --> 01:40:03,400 Speaker 17: Sound is want to get their way back into this game. 2158 01:40:03,439 --> 01:40:05,599 Speaker 24: You're thinking there's some of the off the board running 2159 01:40:05,680 --> 01:40:07,920 Speaker 24: and things that rough for gives you to have a 2160 01:40:07,960 --> 01:40:08,800 Speaker 24: play simply don't. 2161 01:40:08,880 --> 01:40:10,120 Speaker 17: You've got to see a lot more of that. We 2162 01:40:10,240 --> 01:40:11,920 Speaker 17: caught a glimpse of it there and the sound is 2163 01:40:12,000 --> 01:40:12,599 Speaker 17: looked dangerous. 2164 01:40:12,680 --> 01:40:15,400 Speaker 3: Now here's Houston on this left side with Annaley again. 2165 01:40:15,840 --> 01:40:18,280 Speaker 2: Does he have help working on one on one with 2166 01:40:18,479 --> 01:40:20,960 Speaker 2: Kilaney cuts it into bo Goosho's now working on this 2167 01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:24,960 Speaker 2: left side. He's against ariol Lacrosse comes in headed away 2168 01:40:25,000 --> 01:40:27,639 Speaker 2: from Jackson and Reagan, a very weak header just down 2169 01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:30,400 Speaker 2: in Houston, war ten possession with Annally inside the box 2170 01:40:30,680 --> 01:40:33,759 Speaker 2: working three on one against three Sounder defenders and Annally 2171 01:40:33,880 --> 01:40:34,519 Speaker 2: finding space. 2172 01:40:34,840 --> 01:40:37,559 Speaker 3: Is that a penalty? No, it's not. And he goes 2173 01:40:37,680 --> 01:40:38,479 Speaker 3: down and all he did. 2174 01:40:38,680 --> 01:40:41,960 Speaker 2: He is screaming for a penalty as he's bumping chests 2175 01:40:42,040 --> 01:40:44,960 Speaker 2: with Jackson, Reagan and with new who He's screaming at 2176 01:40:45,000 --> 01:40:47,400 Speaker 2: the ref. A fan throws a cup onto the field. 2177 01:40:47,600 --> 01:40:51,040 Speaker 2: It's madness right now inside the six yard box in Houston. 2178 01:40:52,200 --> 01:40:55,400 Speaker 24: I've never seen I'm assuming a home crowd frow something 2179 01:40:55,439 --> 01:40:57,720 Speaker 24: on their own player. That's no idea what's happened there? 2180 01:40:57,840 --> 01:41:00,599 Speaker 24: Free Will definitely saw it out, but does the first 2181 01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:03,960 Speaker 24: part well, direct beats a couple of sound Is players. 2182 01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:05,559 Speaker 24: It's when he gets into the box the book comes 2183 01:41:05,560 --> 01:41:08,559 Speaker 24: to him fortuously. That's not I found in my book. 2184 01:41:08,880 --> 01:41:10,880 Speaker 24: I think he does, Chris. I think it's Christian Roll done. 2185 01:41:10,920 --> 01:41:13,640 Speaker 24: It could be Snyder. He's bundled into Annally, but he 2186 01:41:13,760 --> 01:41:16,080 Speaker 24: throws himself to the ground. That is not a penalty 2187 01:41:16,160 --> 01:41:17,840 Speaker 24: at my first view. Will get a second view here, 2188 01:41:18,080 --> 01:41:20,160 Speaker 24: and it's Christian Rodn there, Yo, that's not a penalty 2189 01:41:20,520 --> 01:41:23,840 Speaker 24: and the sound is players there rightfully asking Annali to 2190 01:41:23,880 --> 01:41:26,639 Speaker 24: get up. Does the first part well, good dribbling gets 2191 01:41:26,680 --> 01:41:28,960 Speaker 24: into the box. He's one on one with Andrew Thomas. 2192 01:41:30,360 --> 01:41:33,160 Speaker 24: Enough pressure does arrive from the sounders and he went 2193 01:41:33,200 --> 01:41:34,280 Speaker 24: over a little too easily then. 2194 01:41:34,200 --> 01:41:36,400 Speaker 2: In my book, and the sounders now working in possession 2195 01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:40,320 Speaker 2: is but it's another giveaway trying to find Rawthrock up 2196 01:41:40,360 --> 01:41:42,840 Speaker 2: the left side. It isn't strong enough and the Houston 2197 01:41:42,920 --> 01:41:44,920 Speaker 2: Dynamo will have it back here on the left side 2198 01:41:44,960 --> 01:41:47,479 Speaker 2: with Gierme where they have found so much success here 2199 01:41:47,560 --> 01:41:50,519 Speaker 2: forty second minutes zero zero game Dynamo have had a 2200 01:41:50,560 --> 01:41:53,360 Speaker 2: few chances off this side. Geerme crossing a ball in 2201 01:41:53,840 --> 01:41:56,519 Speaker 2: and it's cut out by Tino Lopez. Well, Christian roodand 2202 01:41:56,520 --> 01:41:59,720 Speaker 2: excuse me stepping in there and the sounders trying to 2203 01:41:59,720 --> 01:42:01,400 Speaker 2: get this off the field for some hold up play 2204 01:42:01,439 --> 01:42:04,519 Speaker 2: to Misovski. Misovski, with space, can he find Rothrock? He 2205 01:42:04,600 --> 01:42:08,040 Speaker 2: can Rothrock with one on one here against Andrade up 2206 01:42:08,120 --> 01:42:08,960 Speaker 2: that left side. 2207 01:42:09,400 --> 01:42:10,960 Speaker 3: Can he find a step of space. 2208 01:42:11,400 --> 01:42:15,840 Speaker 2: No Houston defenders now recovering defenders trying to get this 2209 01:42:16,040 --> 01:42:16,519 Speaker 2: thing back. 2210 01:42:17,080 --> 01:42:21,760 Speaker 3: But it will go right now. Is we get a 2211 01:42:21,880 --> 01:42:24,360 Speaker 3: moment to look at that Rothrock tried to draw the foul. 2212 01:42:24,439 --> 01:42:26,080 Speaker 3: We'll see if he did. I believe he did. 2213 01:42:26,160 --> 01:42:29,360 Speaker 2: This will be a dangerous, dangerous free kick spot for 2214 01:42:29,439 --> 01:42:31,400 Speaker 2: the Seattle Sounders here in the forty third minute. 2215 01:42:31,479 --> 01:42:32,240 Speaker 17: Yeah, and it was good play. 2216 01:42:32,320 --> 01:42:34,720 Speaker 24: But Danny Massovski, good hold up play the sound as 2217 01:42:34,720 --> 01:42:37,240 Speaker 24: I've been crying up for that. Just some type of 2218 01:42:37,280 --> 01:42:39,000 Speaker 24: possession that keep the ball from more than two or 2219 01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:41,800 Speaker 24: three puss that have time, relieve the pressure on your 2220 01:42:41,840 --> 01:42:44,479 Speaker 24: defensive back line, as it's been a little relentless in 2221 01:42:44,560 --> 01:42:47,000 Speaker 24: the second part of this first half. Rough Rock doing 2222 01:42:47,120 --> 01:42:50,240 Speaker 24: then well driving, not too many options insight to win 2223 01:42:50,360 --> 01:42:52,760 Speaker 24: a free kicks the great thing there give a sound 2224 01:42:52,760 --> 01:42:54,200 Speaker 24: as a chance to put a ball into a very 2225 01:42:54,280 --> 01:42:56,920 Speaker 24: dangerous era. Get the big guns forward and as we 2226 01:42:57,080 --> 01:42:59,680 Speaker 24: inch towards the end of this first half, gives the 2227 01:43:00,240 --> 01:43:01,360 Speaker 24: Green a chance to go ahead. 2228 01:43:01,640 --> 01:43:05,000 Speaker 2: Hasu's Ferira will stand over this one here in the 2229 01:43:05,080 --> 01:43:07,920 Speaker 2: forty third minute, as it looks like the rain is 2230 01:43:07,960 --> 01:43:10,519 Speaker 2: coming down about as hard as it was at the 2231 01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:14,360 Speaker 2: start of this game is slowed down and then increased again. 2232 01:43:14,439 --> 01:43:18,200 Speaker 2: Here as referee Ismael Lfaff holding things up for just 2233 01:43:18,280 --> 01:43:20,800 Speaker 2: a moment. It will be Paul Oriola and Hasus Frera 2234 01:43:21,520 --> 01:43:23,599 Speaker 2: waiting to see who will take this ball. The ball 2235 01:43:23,720 --> 01:43:26,000 Speaker 2: is in the arms of our of Hazu's Farra right 2236 01:43:26,080 --> 01:43:31,840 Speaker 2: now Seattle's number nine in their green shirts with a 2237 01:43:32,160 --> 01:43:37,640 Speaker 2: very very dangerous spot here about ten yards on the 2238 01:43:37,760 --> 01:43:41,280 Speaker 2: far side the left and Ariola will dummy it and 2239 01:43:41,400 --> 01:43:43,839 Speaker 2: here comes Ferrera to take this as an in swinger. 2240 01:43:44,320 --> 01:43:46,439 Speaker 2: It will roll down and it will, I believe, take 2241 01:43:46,479 --> 01:43:48,479 Speaker 2: it to flection off a Houston foot. It's gonna go 2242 01:43:48,800 --> 01:43:51,720 Speaker 2: for a Sounders corner that went off the foot. I 2243 01:43:51,840 --> 01:43:58,599 Speaker 2: believe Boozat and the Sounders will have a corner here 2244 01:43:58,640 --> 01:44:00,760 Speaker 2: for Hasus Frere, who will want again stand over this 2245 01:44:00,880 --> 01:44:04,200 Speaker 2: ball in the now heavy heavy rain of Houston, Texas 2246 01:44:04,280 --> 01:44:07,320 Speaker 2: Shell Energy Stadium zero zero so far between the Sounders 2247 01:44:07,360 --> 01:44:10,840 Speaker 2: and Dynamo. It'll be an inswinger from Ferrera who raises 2248 01:44:10,880 --> 01:44:13,320 Speaker 2: his right hand and here we'll go to the far 2249 01:44:13,479 --> 01:44:16,360 Speaker 2: post and there is a running Christian roll don the 2250 01:44:16,400 --> 01:44:18,280 Speaker 2: far post heads it back into the center of the field. 2251 01:44:18,280 --> 01:44:20,559 Speaker 2: The rath Rock, but it's cleared away from the Houston 2252 01:44:20,640 --> 01:44:23,240 Speaker 2: Dynamo and if foul is called and this will be 2253 01:44:23,360 --> 01:44:25,920 Speaker 2: a free kick from Houston in their own end. 2254 01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:26,720 Speaker 17: Yeah. 2255 01:44:26,720 --> 01:44:28,200 Speaker 24: I think when you have a game like this, where 2256 01:44:28,200 --> 01:44:30,000 Speaker 24: you're under the cush quite a bit like this, you've 2257 01:44:30,040 --> 01:44:32,280 Speaker 24: got to make the most of your set pieces. And 2258 01:44:32,360 --> 01:44:34,120 Speaker 24: I think Ferrera had the free kick dead that was 2259 01:44:34,160 --> 01:44:36,080 Speaker 24: in in swum Go. Wasn't a great delivery, but a 2260 01:44:36,200 --> 01:44:38,720 Speaker 24: second chance for it from the corner kick. Again, the 2261 01:44:38,800 --> 01:44:41,360 Speaker 24: sound is not making enough of that. That will likely 2262 01:44:41,600 --> 01:44:43,880 Speaker 24: be addressed at halftime. Just look, hey, who may not 2263 01:44:43,960 --> 01:44:46,439 Speaker 24: be our best clean game in possession. When we do 2264 01:44:46,560 --> 01:44:48,479 Speaker 24: get our set pieces, let's make sure the runs are 2265 01:44:48,520 --> 01:44:50,400 Speaker 24: the delivery is there, and we try and put the 2266 01:44:50,479 --> 01:44:51,719 Speaker 24: Dynamo under at more pressure. 2267 01:44:52,400 --> 01:44:54,479 Speaker 2: And Jonathan Bond will be taking this free kick from 2268 01:44:54,720 --> 01:44:57,479 Speaker 2: just inside his own box.

As the 2277 01:45:21,439 --> 01:45:23,640 Speaker 2: match has hit the forty five minute mark and is 2278 01:45:23,680 --> 01:45:26,720 Speaker 2: Maael Alfa says no added time.

Seattle Sounders and Houston Dynamo 2338 01:48:37,080 --> 01:48:40,120 Speaker 2: tied zero zero. Right here, Jackson Felts alongside now Pete 2339 01:48:40,160 --> 01:48:43,080 Speaker 2: viewing Pete, Let's get your opening thoughts there on what 2340 01:48:43,320 --> 01:48:44,599 Speaker 2: was a scoreless first half. 2341 01:48:44,800 --> 01:48:47,120 Speaker 4: Well, I agree with a couple things Stevie said. The 2342 01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:50,320 Speaker 4: game was in blocks. There were times when Houston was 2343 01:48:50,360 --> 01:48:52,800 Speaker 4: on the front foot, then Seattle on the front foot, 2344 01:48:53,120 --> 01:48:57,280 Speaker 4: and then there was times where either team couldn't really 2345 01:48:57,479 --> 01:49:01,400 Speaker 4: find their way. We had some good chances at times, 2346 01:49:02,080 --> 01:49:04,360 Speaker 4: a couple of good ones. The one with Ferrera was 2347 01:49:04,400 --> 01:49:08,360 Speaker 4: good on the offensive side. The save by Andrew Thomas 2348 01:49:08,439 --> 01:49:12,280 Speaker 4: in the twenty ninth minute was phenomenal. Houston's very good 2349 01:49:12,360 --> 01:49:14,160 Speaker 4: coming down the left hand side of the field. We've 2350 01:49:14,200 --> 01:49:16,160 Speaker 4: got to lock that down. When we talked to Brian 2351 01:49:16,240 --> 01:49:19,280 Speaker 4: this morning, we said, Hey, the right side for us 2352 01:49:19,880 --> 01:49:22,120 Speaker 4: is a little bit inexperienced. Do you think Houston will 2353 01:49:22,160 --> 01:49:24,880 Speaker 4: expose that. They're definitely coming down our left hand side 2354 01:49:24,920 --> 01:49:26,880 Speaker 4: played a bit, but I think coach will be happy 2355 01:49:26,920 --> 01:49:30,280 Speaker 4: to be zero zero based on the opportunities Houston had, 2356 01:49:31,400 --> 01:49:32,880 Speaker 4: you know, going into the half. And you know, you 2357 01:49:32,920 --> 01:49:34,720 Speaker 4: think about the games we've had so far this year. 2358 01:49:35,360 --> 01:49:37,720 Speaker 4: We have been very fortunate and had a little bit 2359 01:49:37,760 --> 01:49:39,120 Speaker 4: of good luck. We're still having a little bit of 2360 01:49:39,160 --> 01:49:40,280 Speaker 4: that good luck today. 2361 01:49:40,400 --> 01:49:41,080 Speaker 3: We certainly are. 2362 01:49:41,200 --> 01:49:43,439 Speaker 2: Gier May has been tremendous down that left side. A 2363 01:49:43,600 --> 01:49:46,280 Speaker 2: couple of chance creations. He the first minute of this game, 2364 01:49:46,360 --> 01:49:50,000 Speaker 2: thirty seconds in and it's Bogoosh, the former LAFC player, 2365 01:49:50,360 --> 01:49:54,280 Speaker 2: nearly scoring. That Houston offensive system that they use with 2366 01:49:54,400 --> 01:49:56,880 Speaker 2: Ponce with Bogoosh and with Giarme, especially down that left 2367 01:49:56,920 --> 01:49:59,360 Speaker 2: side with Analely, that's when Houston's been at their best 2368 01:49:59,479 --> 01:50:02,200 Speaker 2: so far. Now on the offensive, enp, you want to 2369 01:50:02,200 --> 01:50:03,160 Speaker 2: see more from Seattle? 2370 01:50:03,400 --> 01:50:05,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, I'd love to see Ferrera get on the 2371 01:50:05,640 --> 01:50:07,960 Speaker 4: ball a little bit more, Paul, if he can get 2372 01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:10,439 Speaker 4: in behind and they can play him through. They've tried 2373 01:50:10,479 --> 01:50:12,560 Speaker 4: it a couple of times. The right side has not 2374 01:50:12,720 --> 01:50:18,040 Speaker 4: been bad with Paul Ariola and Coloni overlapping. But and 2375 01:50:18,160 --> 01:50:20,120 Speaker 4: you know, Stevie said it as well, and we said 2376 01:50:20,160 --> 01:50:22,679 Speaker 4: it before the game. Restarts are going to be very important, 2377 01:50:22,720 --> 01:50:26,320 Speaker 4: so the service. It is very wet. Put a bouncing ball, 2378 01:50:26,360 --> 01:50:28,800 Speaker 4: a skipping ball right in front of a goalkeeper, make 2379 01:50:28,880 --> 01:50:32,479 Speaker 4: him hang onto it in traffic. But I am concerned 2380 01:50:32,520 --> 01:50:35,240 Speaker 4: about our right side. Their left side, they've been able 2381 01:50:35,320 --> 01:50:38,240 Speaker 4: to just carve through us. Get good service from that 2382 01:50:38,360 --> 01:50:38,720 Speaker 4: right side. 2383 01:50:38,760 --> 01:50:40,320 Speaker 3: We'll take you a break here on the halftime show. 2384 01:50:40,400 --> 01:50:42,360 Speaker 2: We'll come back and tell you more about what the 2385 01:50:42,439 --> 01:50:44,600 Speaker 2: Sounders need to do to get a win out of 2386 01:50:44,640 --> 01:50:47,240 Speaker 2: this game.

Is Hasus Ferreira will get this second half 2599 02:01:36,920 --> 02:01:40,080 Speaker 2: kicked off in a rainy, rainy stadium here in Houston, 2600 02:01:40,480 --> 02:01:42,680 Speaker 2: and we can see very few fans right now in 2601 02:01:42,840 --> 02:01:45,240 Speaker 2: the stands to kick this thing off here to start 2602 02:01:45,280 --> 02:01:45,920 Speaker 2: the second half. 2603 02:01:46,560 --> 02:01:47,280 Speaker 3: Very few fans. 2604 02:01:47,280 --> 02:01:50,880 Speaker 2: They're probably all in the concourse buying their ponchos, you know, 2605 02:01:50,960 --> 02:01:55,160 Speaker 2: getting their ponchos out because it is a very very heavy. 2606 02:01:55,000 --> 02:01:56,280 Speaker 3: Rain here as we see. 2607 02:01:56,320 --> 02:01:59,960 Speaker 2: Actually there is a halftime substitution for Houston and it's 2608 02:02:00,000 --> 02:02:02,960 Speaker 2: it's gonna be one of their young call up players, 2609 02:02:03,040 --> 02:02:07,360 Speaker 2: Diego Gonzalez, who is a short term player for Houston. 2610 02:02:07,880 --> 02:02:10,320 Speaker 2: He was actually the one who's coming into this game. 2611 02:02:10,360 --> 02:02:12,200 Speaker 2: I believe we'll get more on them, but he's gonna 2612 02:02:12,200 --> 02:02:14,600 Speaker 2: be coming in for I believe Franco Negri on that 2613 02:02:15,040 --> 02:02:20,120 Speaker 2: left back spot that is a defender, a fullback for 2614 02:02:20,800 --> 02:02:24,280 Speaker 2: Houston Dynamo two that they signed. 2615 02:02:24,000 --> 02:02:27,120 Speaker 3: Up just today. And he gets his first action. 2616 02:02:29,240 --> 02:02:31,600 Speaker 2: But the Sounders now working in possession here on their 2617 02:02:31,680 --> 02:02:38,120 Speaker 2: left side with Christian rolled on. Sounders in their green shirts. 2618 02:02:38,120 --> 02:02:44,680 Speaker 2: They're awkward shorts. Houston in entirely dark blue. Jackson Reagan 2619 02:02:44,720 --> 02:02:46,960 Speaker 2: will stand over this ball. Houston not in a mood 2620 02:02:47,000 --> 02:02:50,520 Speaker 2: depress here as the second half is just underway. Ball 2621 02:02:50,600 --> 02:02:53,080 Speaker 2: finding Ariol here on the right side, tries to find 2622 02:02:53,120 --> 02:02:56,920 Speaker 2: some space and it is end up with Christian I believe, 2623 02:02:56,960 --> 02:02:59,800 Speaker 2: coming away with the ball. Sounders retained, but giveaway there 2624 02:03:00,320 --> 02:03:03,160 Speaker 2: and it is too Houston now on this right side, 2625 02:03:03,560 --> 02:03:06,760 Speaker 2: Danny Moszowski with that giveaway and now it's Houston switching 2626 02:03:06,800 --> 02:03:09,280 Speaker 2: to a point of attack up to the left for yeah, mate, 2627 02:03:09,280 --> 02:03:12,320 Speaker 2: trying to create some space. Shut save Andrew Thomas point 2628 02:03:12,400 --> 02:03:16,360 Speaker 2: blank range right at Thomas's chest, and that is a 2629 02:03:16,480 --> 02:03:19,240 Speaker 2: good job for the Sounders to keep Houston off the 2630 02:03:19,280 --> 02:03:19,840 Speaker 2: score sheet. 2631 02:03:20,000 --> 02:03:21,960 Speaker 3: Andrew Thomas once again coming up huge. 2632 02:03:22,080 --> 02:03:25,040 Speaker 24: Yeah, once again, it's that man game, very dangerous. Anytime 2633 02:03:25,080 --> 02:03:26,840 Speaker 24: he gets on the ball drive to the back line, 2634 02:03:27,040 --> 02:03:29,280 Speaker 24: I mean, he's causing all kinds of problems for the Sounder. 2635 02:03:29,280 --> 02:03:32,280 Speaker 24: His back line on that occasion gets inside eight of 2636 02:03:32,400 --> 02:03:35,800 Speaker 24: the gold try to hits that decent hype. Andrew Thomas 2637 02:03:35,960 --> 02:03:37,800 Speaker 24: keep his toast to get there, gets his buddy behind 2638 02:03:37,840 --> 02:03:40,680 Speaker 24: the ball. It's another good save by Andrew Thomas. But 2639 02:03:40,760 --> 02:03:42,800 Speaker 24: I just think for the Sounders at some point, you 2640 02:03:42,880 --> 02:03:44,360 Speaker 24: gotta find ways to relieve this pressure. 2641 02:03:44,640 --> 02:03:46,440 Speaker 17: You kind of stop gaming one v one. It doesn't 2642 02:03:46,480 --> 02:03:48,480 Speaker 17: look like and so can you count with something of 2643 02:03:48,520 --> 02:03:48,800 Speaker 17: your own? 2644 02:03:48,920 --> 02:03:51,160 Speaker 24: You look at the outBut looking at Jordan, looking at Osase, 2645 02:03:51,320 --> 02:03:52,480 Speaker 24: there's lots of options on the bench. 2646 02:03:52,520 --> 02:03:54,960 Speaker 2: Hess one, Christian rolled on and Christian want finds some 2647 02:03:55,080 --> 02:03:57,800 Speaker 2: space right outside the box. But trying to slip a 2648 02:03:57,840 --> 02:04:00,280 Speaker 2: ball over to the right Areol and Houston and we'll 2649 02:04:00,280 --> 02:04:03,680 Speaker 2: cut it out and the Sounders will hold possession. Though 2650 02:04:04,360 --> 02:04:06,280 Speaker 2: as that was a moment there, ball ended up going 2651 02:04:06,320 --> 02:04:08,080 Speaker 2: over to the left to Paul Rothrock, as it does 2652 02:04:08,160 --> 02:04:10,920 Speaker 2: here in this moment again, can they create a similar chance. 2653 02:04:11,160 --> 02:04:13,400 Speaker 2: Rothrock nearing the endline crosses and it's going to be 2654 02:04:13,480 --> 02:04:15,960 Speaker 2: hit out for a corner coming here for Seattle. Here 2655 02:04:16,000 --> 02:04:21,200 Speaker 2: in the forty eighth minute, it's Dwayne Holmes out there 2656 02:04:21,320 --> 02:04:25,400 Speaker 2: working right against Paul Rothrock. As we see here, Houston 2657 02:04:25,480 --> 02:04:28,360 Speaker 2: and Seattle bouncing right back and forth with chances here 2658 02:04:28,400 --> 02:04:31,120 Speaker 2: to open the second half, both teams wanting this opening 2659 02:04:31,200 --> 02:04:35,360 Speaker 2: goal badly here in the heavy heavy rainish Shell Energy stadium. 2660 02:04:35,520 --> 02:04:38,240 Speaker 2: It'll be an in swinger from Haesu's Ferreira near side 2661 02:04:38,280 --> 02:04:43,080 Speaker 2: the left. Here it comes in the back post and 2662 02:04:43,240 --> 02:04:45,760 Speaker 2: it's tipped away from I believe a couple of different 2663 02:04:45,800 --> 02:04:48,320 Speaker 2: Houston heads for a Seattle throwing on the far side. 2664 02:04:48,880 --> 02:04:52,320 Speaker 2: Ball did not reach Newho towards that back post. But 2665 02:04:52,480 --> 02:04:57,040 Speaker 2: he will throw this ball in and he will not though. 2666 02:04:57,080 --> 02:04:59,480 Speaker 2: He'll hand this thing off to Kolani Cozerienzi, who has 2667 02:05:00,120 --> 02:05:01,960 Speaker 2: very very strong throws, but he will. 2668 02:05:01,840 --> 02:05:04,800 Speaker 3: Go short to new who who plays it more centrally 2669 02:05:04,880 --> 02:05:05,360 Speaker 3: to Bernell. 2670 02:05:05,440 --> 02:05:08,000 Speaker 2: Burnell slides it all into a riola trying to find 2671 02:05:08,040 --> 02:05:09,200 Speaker 2: some space here, back out. 2672 02:05:09,120 --> 02:05:11,600 Speaker 3: To Burnell over to the left side. 2673 02:05:11,640 --> 02:05:15,880 Speaker 2: Here there's Tino Lopez working here deep into this left 2674 02:05:15,920 --> 02:05:18,680 Speaker 2: side of the field. He's pushed down No call Rothrock 2675 02:05:18,920 --> 02:05:23,080 Speaker 2: to Reagan, Reagan, who's about twenty yards inside of Houston's half. 2676 02:05:23,960 --> 02:05:27,360 Speaker 2: Christian Rodn the furthest sounder back in fact over onto 2677 02:05:27,400 --> 02:05:30,240 Speaker 2: the right for Ferrera. Farira tries to slip a ball in, 2678 02:05:30,400 --> 02:05:33,400 Speaker 2: but it's tipped away nicely by a Houston defender and 2679 02:05:33,480 --> 02:05:36,440 Speaker 2: they will possess on the left, but it's given away 2680 02:05:36,560 --> 02:05:39,280 Speaker 2: poorly by the dynamo for another sounder's thrown here in 2681 02:05:39,320 --> 02:05:41,040 Speaker 2: the fiftieth minute zero zero game. 2682 02:05:41,520 --> 02:05:42,960 Speaker 24: Yeah, but we're seeing a bit more of what a 2683 02:05:43,040 --> 02:05:46,440 Speaker 24: sounders did well in a first offt that's advanced possession positionally, 2684 02:05:46,600 --> 02:05:49,000 Speaker 24: so pushing your numbers higher, taking a bit of risk, 2685 02:05:49,080 --> 02:05:51,400 Speaker 24: leaving some space in behind if you have to, and 2686 02:05:51,520 --> 02:05:53,400 Speaker 24: just getting more numbers into the attack. I think when 2687 02:05:53,440 --> 02:05:55,640 Speaker 24: a sound has played a little closer together gives a 2688 02:05:55,760 --> 02:05:59,000 Speaker 24: pull to Masovski has been pretty isolate this evening so far. 2689 02:05:59,240 --> 02:06:02,200 Speaker 24: It just allows Forever and Christian Rodun to create passes 2690 02:06:02,240 --> 02:06:05,120 Speaker 24: between them, create triangles, create overloads. Then you can get 2691 02:06:05,160 --> 02:06:07,560 Speaker 24: the boat wide in one v one situations. And there 2692 02:06:07,640 --> 02:06:09,440 Speaker 24: was a ten minute stretch in the first half where 2693 02:06:09,440 --> 02:06:11,880 Speaker 24: it looks pretty good, but stats don't tell the whole story. 2694 02:06:11,920 --> 02:06:13,880 Speaker 24: But for the sound is it is just one shot 2695 02:06:14,080 --> 02:06:15,880 Speaker 24: on goal so far and that is the one that 2696 02:06:15,920 --> 02:06:17,080 Speaker 24: Hazy's fawe which came close. 2697 02:06:17,240 --> 02:06:19,600 Speaker 2: Here's Kalani working down this right side. Can they find 2698 02:06:19,640 --> 02:06:21,800 Speaker 2: the shot on goal right here to the cross far 2699 02:06:21,920 --> 02:06:25,000 Speaker 2: post Paul Rothrock did he get a touch that he 2700 02:06:25,120 --> 02:06:27,440 Speaker 2: did or we go out for a goalkick. 2701 02:06:27,080 --> 02:06:27,880 Speaker 3: For Jonathan Bond. 2702 02:06:28,040 --> 02:06:30,560 Speaker 2: We'll mentioned that sanders SEFs Soccer is presented by Provident, 2703 02:06:30,640 --> 02:06:33,960 Speaker 2: Swedish official healthcare partner of SANDERSFC. But that's Steve is 2704 02:06:34,000 --> 02:06:36,320 Speaker 2: what you want to see more finding space on those 2705 02:06:36,360 --> 02:06:37,600 Speaker 2: wings with balls under the box. 2706 02:06:37,800 --> 02:06:38,800 Speaker 17: Yeah, a lot more than the film. 2707 02:06:38,800 --> 02:06:40,960 Speaker 24: Branch Mans will be okay with that because one leave 2708 02:06:41,000 --> 02:06:43,200 Speaker 24: it's a lot of pressure from just around the dynamo 2709 02:06:43,280 --> 02:06:45,520 Speaker 24: to have wave off the wave of the wave of attack. 2710 02:06:45,760 --> 02:06:48,040 Speaker 24: And then for the Sounders it's not the cleanest game offensively, 2711 02:06:48,160 --> 02:06:50,560 Speaker 24: clearly we can see that. But he does have really 2712 02:06:50,680 --> 02:06:53,320 Speaker 24: strong reinforcements on the bench. So if the patterns are there, 2713 02:06:53,360 --> 02:06:55,640 Speaker 24: the ideas are there, and the final piece of're missing 2714 02:06:55,680 --> 02:06:58,680 Speaker 24: is quality. You have that quality in reserve in Jordan 2715 02:06:58,800 --> 02:07:01,120 Speaker 24: and albert Osarzka. Find a goal you can ring on 2716 02:07:01,200 --> 02:07:03,360 Speaker 24: numbers off the bench, but your attecking patents have to 2717 02:07:03,400 --> 02:07:04,720 Speaker 24: be a little better than they have been so far. 2718 02:07:04,960 --> 02:07:06,800 Speaker 24: And the signs in the second half there was a 2719 02:07:06,840 --> 02:07:09,160 Speaker 24: conversation it's a bit more dynamic, a lot more fluid, 2720 02:07:09,360 --> 02:07:10,960 Speaker 24: a lot more improvement in the attack and food for 2721 02:07:11,040 --> 02:07:13,120 Speaker 24: the sound is haven't quiet been able to connect as 2722 02:07:13,160 --> 02:07:15,440 Speaker 24: of yet, but we've seen a lot more Fasus and 2723 02:07:15,560 --> 02:07:17,800 Speaker 24: Ariola and rough Rook in the final foot. 2724 02:07:18,160 --> 02:07:20,480 Speaker 2: Well for Houston, want to clarify a change that was 2725 02:07:20,520 --> 02:07:22,640 Speaker 2: made by the way at halftime. It was Negari coming 2726 02:07:22,720 --> 02:07:25,800 Speaker 2: off and a young center back Augustin Resh coming out 2727 02:07:25,800 --> 02:07:28,520 Speaker 2: of the field to play their left center back spot. 2728 02:07:28,640 --> 02:07:31,320 Speaker 2: Is they'll try to combine here with Bogose here on 2729 02:07:31,520 --> 02:07:34,520 Speaker 2: the left corner of the box, working right on Ariola, 2730 02:07:34,560 --> 02:07:36,320 Speaker 2: and he will force them to play it back out 2731 02:07:36,640 --> 02:07:39,000 Speaker 2: to the middle of the park to Antonio Carlos. So 2732 02:07:39,160 --> 02:07:43,080 Speaker 2: Houston getting a much larger defender in this field. They 2733 02:07:43,160 --> 02:07:45,640 Speaker 2: take off Negary, kind of a shorter left back, and 2734 02:07:45,760 --> 02:07:47,880 Speaker 2: put on a guy in Resh who's six six, a 2735 02:07:47,960 --> 02:07:52,280 Speaker 2: twenty four year old defender to get some hype. Perhaps 2736 02:07:52,720 --> 02:07:56,320 Speaker 2: maybe they see that they can work down one side 2737 02:07:56,360 --> 02:07:58,280 Speaker 2: and cross the ball in and get a big body 2738 02:07:58,400 --> 02:08:01,880 Speaker 2: center back in whether that's or set piece to a 2739 02:08:01,960 --> 02:08:06,280 Speaker 2: guy that Ben Olsen has talked about really liking. But 2740 02:08:06,360 --> 02:08:08,840 Speaker 2: it's Sounders now in possession here on this left side 2741 02:08:08,840 --> 02:08:10,680 Speaker 2: with newho and Paul Rothrock. 2742 02:08:12,640 --> 02:08:14,480 Speaker 3: And they will have Jackson Reagan again. 2743 02:08:14,600 --> 02:08:19,440 Speaker 2: No press from this Houston team, No changes for the 2744 02:08:19,520 --> 02:08:26,640 Speaker 2: Sounders at halftime, just that one for Houston meanwhile, because 2745 02:08:26,640 --> 02:08:28,520 Speaker 2: it's Houston taking this ball away and they will have 2746 02:08:28,640 --> 02:08:29,200 Speaker 2: it down. 2747 02:08:29,280 --> 02:08:31,720 Speaker 3: This right side with bogoosh, but it's a quick giveaway. 2748 02:08:31,840 --> 02:08:34,480 Speaker 2: Sounders taking it back for now now in the middle 2749 02:08:34,480 --> 02:08:36,720 Speaker 2: of the park, and he will send it back out 2750 02:08:37,200 --> 02:08:42,000 Speaker 2: to Tino Lopez. Tino Lopez making his third start for 2751 02:08:42,080 --> 02:08:43,360 Speaker 2: the Seattle Sounders. 2752 02:08:43,000 --> 02:08:43,800 Speaker 3: And MLS action. 2753 02:08:45,360 --> 02:08:48,360 Speaker 2: He's played a couple of games in concer caf as well, 2754 02:08:48,440 --> 02:08:51,400 Speaker 2: but he's been very, very good in his MLS game 2755 02:08:51,520 --> 02:08:53,400 Speaker 2: so far. A couple of games, playing ninety minutes in 2756 02:08:53,440 --> 02:08:56,240 Speaker 2: each of them, leading to clean sheets for the Sounders. 2757 02:08:56,640 --> 02:09:01,400 Speaker 2: Christian playing with Jesus Ferrera one two retaining possession ball 2758 02:09:01,480 --> 02:09:03,440 Speaker 2: of the middle for Ariola. Can it skip through no 2759 02:09:03,520 --> 02:09:06,680 Speaker 2: when good job by Jonathan Bond. Sounders were trying to 2760 02:09:06,680 --> 02:09:09,840 Speaker 2: play those tight little passes Steve but and one that 2761 02:09:10,040 --> 02:09:12,640 Speaker 2: just poked nearly in front of goal was taken out 2762 02:09:12,640 --> 02:09:13,960 Speaker 2: there from Jonathan Bond. 2763 02:09:14,120 --> 02:09:16,160 Speaker 24: Yeah, but much more encouraging the one we saw for 2764 02:09:16,280 --> 02:09:18,120 Speaker 24: most of the first half of the Sounders. And again 2765 02:09:18,240 --> 02:09:20,960 Speaker 24: just a few things beginning to change here. A lot 2766 02:09:21,040 --> 02:09:24,360 Speaker 24: of dominance centrally, which you need control to midfield, which 2767 02:09:24,440 --> 02:09:26,960 Speaker 24: just allows you to then create that space in the wide. 2768 02:09:26,960 --> 02:09:29,760 Speaker 24: The areas very few giveaways into second half so far. 2769 02:09:29,920 --> 02:09:32,320 Speaker 2: And here's the right side finding space with Hasus Freer 2770 02:09:32,400 --> 02:09:34,160 Speaker 2: and ariol Or can he get on the ball now 2771 02:09:34,200 --> 02:09:37,920 Speaker 2: it's cut away there and Houston takes away what could 2772 02:09:37,920 --> 02:09:40,680 Speaker 2: have been a Sounders chance there between Paul and hayesus 2773 02:09:40,720 --> 02:09:43,320 Speaker 2: the former Dallas teammates there working on that right side. 2774 02:09:43,360 --> 02:09:45,400 Speaker 2: Here in the fifty to fourth minute, it's a zero 2775 02:09:45,560 --> 02:09:48,520 Speaker 2: zero game at Shell Energy Stadium. Is our referee l Fath. 2776 02:09:48,880 --> 02:09:50,840 Speaker 2: We'll pull out a yellow card here. We'll see who 2777 02:09:50,920 --> 02:09:55,200 Speaker 2: this goes to here. It may have been for a 2778 02:09:55,360 --> 02:09:57,080 Speaker 2: foul a few moments ago. 2779 02:10:00,520 --> 02:10:01,440 Speaker 3: We'll see what this is. 2780 02:10:01,560 --> 02:10:05,040 Speaker 2: But Houston will have a free kick here. It'll maybe 2781 02:10:05,080 --> 02:10:07,240 Speaker 2: a yellow card to a Seattle Sounder. We'll get who 2782 02:10:07,320 --> 02:10:07,920 Speaker 2: that was here. 2783 02:10:08,440 --> 02:10:09,600 Speaker 3: In just a moment. 2784 02:10:11,400 --> 02:10:14,080 Speaker 2: Because Brian Schmittzer looks at a very very strong bench, 2785 02:10:14,120 --> 02:10:18,240 Speaker 2: Steve with Rusnak, with Morris Alex rolled on with the 2786 02:10:18,360 --> 02:10:21,000 Speaker 2: newly signed Peter Kingston, O Saseid Rosario, a lot of 2787 02:10:21,040 --> 02:10:23,680 Speaker 2: players who could potentially make a difference for Seattle tonight. 2788 02:10:23,720 --> 02:10:25,440 Speaker 2: Steve is we'll get to that in a moment. As 2789 02:10:25,440 --> 02:10:28,200 Speaker 2: Houston attacks on this right side, Dwayne Holmes working on 2790 02:10:28,360 --> 02:10:31,320 Speaker 2: new who cuts to his right, chance to cross crosses 2791 02:10:31,360 --> 02:10:33,560 Speaker 2: in great job by Jackson and Reagan to send that 2792 02:10:33,720 --> 02:10:36,880 Speaker 2: back and the Sounders will now try to potentially work 2793 02:10:36,960 --> 02:10:41,720 Speaker 2: back quickly. Here's Christian Roldan dribbling through no pressure, no 2794 02:10:41,840 --> 02:10:44,360 Speaker 2: press from Houston on that right side. With Steve as 2795 02:10:44,360 --> 02:10:46,520 Speaker 2: we were just mentioning a lot of weapons for Brian 2796 02:10:46,560 --> 02:10:49,240 Speaker 2: Schmitzer here in this second half, and I. 2797 02:10:49,280 --> 02:10:51,040 Speaker 24: Think it's gets to the point when you've got thought 2798 02:10:51,040 --> 02:10:53,360 Speaker 24: to move out question. It will be human nature for 2799 02:10:53,520 --> 02:10:55,880 Speaker 24: him to be thinking about midweek, you know. At the 2800 02:10:55,920 --> 02:10:58,360 Speaker 24: same time, Hey, well, Neil, nil, we maybe can still 2801 02:10:58,440 --> 02:11:00,360 Speaker 24: nick one with the guys we have under pitch and 2802 02:11:00,400 --> 02:11:02,440 Speaker 24: cannot preserve my guys on the bench for as long 2803 02:11:02,480 --> 02:11:05,680 Speaker 24: as possible as I'll be counting on almost if not 2804 02:11:05,800 --> 02:11:07,200 Speaker 24: all of them for the big. 2805 02:11:07,320 --> 02:11:08,720 Speaker 17: Game in midweek. 2806 02:11:08,880 --> 02:11:12,800 Speaker 24: But Jordan Morris changes this game, our book changes this 2807 02:11:12,880 --> 02:11:15,040 Speaker 24: game massage. It gives you a different look up top two. 2808 02:11:15,080 --> 02:11:16,800 Speaker 24: So I think at some point he's going to have 2809 02:11:16,840 --> 02:11:19,360 Speaker 24: to look at what is it worth to sacrifice to 2810 02:11:19,400 --> 02:11:22,320 Speaker 24: point him in for thirty twenty five twenty minutes because 2811 02:11:22,360 --> 02:11:24,360 Speaker 24: right on the Sounds are in control. Houston have not 2812 02:11:24,480 --> 02:11:26,520 Speaker 24: been as dominant as to win the first half. But 2813 02:11:26,640 --> 02:11:29,160 Speaker 24: what's missing is that final piece of quality in the 2814 02:11:29,240 --> 02:11:31,400 Speaker 24: final third, which I think could be sitting. 2815 02:11:31,200 --> 02:11:31,560 Speaker 18: On the bench. 2816 02:11:31,680 --> 02:11:36,200 Speaker 2: Sounders working in possession here on Houston's side the left 2817 02:11:36,280 --> 02:11:41,560 Speaker 2: with Burnell. Burnell the Christian rolled on, sends it over 2818 02:11:41,640 --> 02:11:44,880 Speaker 2: to the right side, changing the point of attack now 2819 02:11:44,920 --> 02:11:45,360 Speaker 2: to the middle. 2820 02:11:45,400 --> 02:11:47,160 Speaker 3: But the ball easily given away there. 2821 02:11:47,480 --> 02:11:50,080 Speaker 2: As Houston now try to work quickly up their left 2822 02:11:50,160 --> 02:11:52,680 Speaker 2: side some space here in the middle of the park, 2823 02:11:52,920 --> 02:11:54,480 Speaker 2: Sounders have to get organized quickly. 2824 02:11:57,080 --> 02:11:57,880 Speaker 3: Ball slipped through. 2825 02:11:58,080 --> 02:12:00,800 Speaker 2: That's gonna be offside on a Nali And now it 2826 02:12:00,880 --> 02:12:02,560 Speaker 2: kind of gives up on the play because he knew 2827 02:12:02,600 --> 02:12:05,200 Speaker 2: an offside was coming, and there is the offside flag 2828 02:12:05,520 --> 02:12:07,760 Speaker 2: after about fifteen seconds of the play continuing. 2829 02:12:07,840 --> 02:12:10,800 Speaker 17: Steve when it's that obvious, just call it. 2830 02:12:11,000 --> 02:12:12,720 Speaker 24: And I know we want to see the play develop 2831 02:12:12,920 --> 02:12:14,200 Speaker 24: just in case, but I think it was a pretty 2832 02:12:14,240 --> 02:12:16,960 Speaker 24: obvious one. But that came from one of the first 2833 02:12:17,040 --> 02:12:19,720 Speaker 24: sound is cheap giveaways in the second half, and you 2834 02:12:19,760 --> 02:12:21,760 Speaker 24: can see again in the first off we had four, five, 2835 02:12:21,840 --> 02:12:24,320 Speaker 24: six of those and the dynam will try to capitalize 2836 02:12:24,560 --> 02:12:26,760 Speaker 24: the whosoon Animal haven't been able to create fee to 2837 02:12:26,800 --> 02:12:28,640 Speaker 24: run of play. So fun a second half aside from 2838 02:12:28,640 --> 02:12:31,320 Speaker 24: the one chance by DA. But when you make cheap 2839 02:12:31,400 --> 02:12:34,320 Speaker 24: giveaways in the final thud like that, you give this 2840 02:12:34,400 --> 02:12:36,440 Speaker 24: team a chance to get out and run and they can. 2841 02:12:36,520 --> 02:12:38,680 Speaker 17: They've proven they can do so so far, although they've 2842 02:12:38,680 --> 02:12:39,760 Speaker 17: got nothing for their troubles yet. 2843 02:12:39,920 --> 02:12:40,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, you mentioned gire Man. 2844 02:12:41,000 --> 02:12:43,000 Speaker 2: He's relatively been shut down here in the first ten 2845 02:12:43,040 --> 02:12:45,120 Speaker 2: minutes of the second half. Much better from the Sounders 2846 02:12:45,520 --> 02:12:47,240 Speaker 2: here in this half as opposed to the first half. 2847 02:12:47,280 --> 02:12:49,240 Speaker 2: We'll mention, by the way, that yellow card for Seattle 2848 02:12:49,440 --> 02:12:51,880 Speaker 2: a few minutes ago that went to Paul Rothrock. So 2849 02:12:52,000 --> 02:12:54,360 Speaker 2: that is to note that Rothrock is on a yellow 2850 02:12:54,440 --> 02:12:58,680 Speaker 2: here in this game, and the Sounders had a long 2851 02:12:58,760 --> 02:13:01,040 Speaker 2: ball over the right side here. All is that going 2852 02:13:01,120 --> 02:13:03,920 Speaker 2: to be outside it will go wide of goal, but 2853 02:13:04,560 --> 02:13:08,120 Speaker 2: is that gonna be off? Misovsky is screaming at Ismael 2854 02:13:08,280 --> 02:13:10,880 Speaker 2: l Fath looking for a foul. I think he's asking 2855 02:13:10,960 --> 02:13:11,640 Speaker 2: for a penalty. 2856 02:13:11,760 --> 02:13:12,080 Speaker 3: Steve. 2857 02:13:12,760 --> 02:13:15,880 Speaker 24: It looked on the initial ball, but yeah, I think 2858 02:13:15,960 --> 02:13:18,160 Speaker 24: a corner. I think he's asking for a corner. We'll 2859 02:13:18,200 --> 02:13:20,000 Speaker 24: just play here. I think what he's saying he didn't 2860 02:13:20,040 --> 02:13:22,400 Speaker 24: touch it was so First of all, Ariola is on site. 2861 02:13:22,840 --> 02:13:26,080 Speaker 24: If this goes in discounts, and I think Massovski's saying 2862 02:13:26,120 --> 02:13:28,880 Speaker 24: that that's good defending. Why the Dynamo player. I don't 2863 02:13:28,880 --> 02:13:31,200 Speaker 24: think Massovski gets the final touch, and that's why he's arguing. 2864 02:13:31,320 --> 02:13:33,520 Speaker 24: I do believe a goal kicks being given good board 2865 02:13:33,560 --> 02:13:36,320 Speaker 24: over the top, good play by Ariola, and Misovski didn't 2866 02:13:36,360 --> 02:13:39,480 Speaker 24: get there first. The Sounders have to settle for a 2867 02:13:39,720 --> 02:13:41,760 Speaker 24: goal kick against them. There should have been at least 2868 02:13:41,800 --> 02:13:43,760 Speaker 24: a corner, and even better, should have been a goal. 2869 02:13:43,960 --> 02:13:46,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, Antonio Carlos did a great job to come back 2870 02:13:46,600 --> 02:13:47,600 Speaker 2: on that play for Houston. 2871 02:13:47,680 --> 02:13:50,920 Speaker 3: Defensively, it looked like Ariol might have been offside. 2872 02:13:50,960 --> 02:13:53,640 Speaker 2: It was close on that, but being that it's a 2873 02:13:53,680 --> 02:13:55,640 Speaker 2: goal kick, they don't even look at it and what 2874 02:13:55,720 --> 02:13:56,240 Speaker 2: could have been a. 2875 02:13:56,280 --> 02:13:58,640 Speaker 3: Dangerous Sounder chance. They're on a long ball over the 2876 02:13:58,720 --> 02:14:01,800 Speaker 3: top to Ariol there on the right side. 2877 02:14:04,080 --> 02:14:06,160 Speaker 2: Ariol, who had so much success on the left side 2878 02:14:06,200 --> 02:14:09,280 Speaker 2: in Vancouver in that Conker CAAFF Champions Cup game. He's 2879 02:14:09,320 --> 02:14:11,000 Speaker 2: gone over to the right. Kind of a Swiss army 2880 02:14:11,080 --> 02:14:14,240 Speaker 2: knife for Brian Schmitzer talked about how he's a handy 2881 02:14:14,280 --> 02:14:16,760 Speaker 2: piece to have even better than they remember him after 2882 02:14:16,840 --> 02:14:20,400 Speaker 2: that ACL injury a year ago and he today playing 2883 02:14:20,440 --> 02:14:23,160 Speaker 2: on that right is Houston work up through the middle, 2884 02:14:23,200 --> 02:14:25,040 Speaker 2: ball over to the left side to Dwayne Holmes. Holmes 2885 02:14:25,080 --> 02:14:27,000 Speaker 2: a chance to cross. He will try to slip the 2886 02:14:27,040 --> 02:14:29,520 Speaker 2: ball in, but there's four Sounder defenders. We have the 2887 02:14:29,600 --> 02:14:32,440 Speaker 2: option to clear that one away. This will go out 2888 02:14:32,520 --> 02:14:35,440 Speaker 2: for a Houston throwing. Here as the clock strikes fifty eight, 2889 02:14:35,480 --> 02:14:36,960 Speaker 2: we're into the fifty ninth minute here at s Shell 2890 02:14:37,080 --> 02:14:40,680 Speaker 2: Energy Stadium, zero zero game right now between the Sounders 2891 02:14:40,680 --> 02:14:44,080 Speaker 2: and Dynamo Jackson Feltz and Steve Zachawani here on the 2892 02:14:44,160 --> 02:14:47,960 Speaker 2: Seattle Soccer Radio stream channel and iHeartRadio.

Houston now trying to work up 2896 02:14:58,200 --> 02:15:00,480 Speaker 2: this right side. It's once again Holmes Knew Who and 2897 02:15:00,520 --> 02:15:01,160 Speaker 2: knew Who does. 2898 02:15:01,040 --> 02:15:03,520 Speaker 3: A great job. This will be out though for a 2899 02:15:03,640 --> 02:15:06,200 Speaker 3: Houston Dynamo corner here in the fifty ninth minute, Steve. 2900 02:15:06,080 --> 02:15:08,720 Speaker 24: Yeah, it's good defending by newhod Indian's homes just run 2901 02:15:08,760 --> 02:15:10,760 Speaker 24: out of room, and it's good play for him to win. 2902 02:15:10,840 --> 02:15:12,880 Speaker 24: A Cornicut Foys team of simons we have to defend here. 2903 02:15:13,280 --> 02:15:15,120 Speaker 24: Just a couple signs of life in the last couple 2904 02:15:15,160 --> 02:15:17,320 Speaker 24: of minutes, say I fromda Houston Dynamo team here and 2905 02:15:17,400 --> 02:15:19,280 Speaker 24: this game is finally tuned. I think both teams, as 2906 02:15:19,320 --> 02:15:21,560 Speaker 24: you approached the album WELLO, believe they can get not 2907 02:15:21,720 --> 02:15:23,680 Speaker 24: just a point, but three points out of this. I 2908 02:15:23,760 --> 02:15:25,480 Speaker 24: think this next five to ten minutes is going to 2909 02:15:25,520 --> 02:15:27,760 Speaker 24: be huge in terms of which way to momentum swings. 2910 02:15:28,520 --> 02:15:31,920 Speaker 2: We'll see bo Goosh over that corner. Gearme has taken 2911 02:15:31,960 --> 02:15:34,240 Speaker 2: all of them so far, but this one going to. 2912 02:15:35,920 --> 02:15:36,640 Speaker 3: Houston's winger. 2913 02:15:36,680 --> 02:15:38,600 Speaker 2: Bo Goosh will send it an out swinger looking for 2914 02:15:38,760 --> 02:15:42,000 Speaker 2: far post and a good job by Rothrock to use 2915 02:15:42,040 --> 02:15:43,920 Speaker 2: the kind of this lower half of the body to 2916 02:15:44,000 --> 02:15:47,040 Speaker 2: clear that one away and that will go all the 2917 02:15:47,080 --> 02:15:50,000 Speaker 2: way back to Jonathan Bond and Houston will have to 2918 02:15:50,080 --> 02:15:54,840 Speaker 2: reset gear May the deepest man for the Dynamo in 2919 02:15:54,960 --> 02:15:57,960 Speaker 2: this zero zero game, Houston trying to send a long 2920 02:15:58,000 --> 02:16:01,080 Speaker 2: ball up on the left side, they will connect and 2921 02:16:01,200 --> 02:16:06,920 Speaker 2: that's Resh their new center back getting possession for Houston 2922 02:16:07,040 --> 02:16:10,480 Speaker 2: is the Sounders will not press at the moment you 2923 02:16:10,600 --> 02:16:12,680 Speaker 2: wonder here with thirty minutes to go in this game. 2924 02:16:13,040 --> 02:16:15,960 Speaker 2: They also have a match on Wednesday in Mexico against 2925 02:16:15,960 --> 02:16:19,040 Speaker 2: Tea Grace and koonkalf action. Who will Brian Schmencher choose 2926 02:16:19,080 --> 02:16:21,600 Speaker 2: to bring on and when well, here is Gearme coming 2927 02:16:21,720 --> 02:16:23,840 Speaker 2: up the right side. But a great job at Christian 2928 02:16:23,920 --> 02:16:26,080 Speaker 2: Rodan to get in a way of that one, and 2929 02:16:26,200 --> 02:16:29,240 Speaker 2: this ball will eventually go out for a Sounder throw in. 2930 02:16:29,680 --> 02:16:33,119 Speaker 2: As we mentioned, Steve Christian Rolldon making his four hundredth 2931 02:16:33,280 --> 02:16:37,160 Speaker 2: all competition appearance today. He becomes the ninth player in 2932 02:16:37,240 --> 02:16:39,480 Speaker 2: Major League Soccer history to hit four hundred. As the 2933 02:16:39,480 --> 02:16:42,440 Speaker 2: Sounders are making them a triple sub here, triple sub 2934 02:16:42,520 --> 02:16:45,680 Speaker 2: coming up here in the sixty first minute, lots of changes. 2935 02:16:45,680 --> 02:16:48,480 Speaker 2: It's Albert Rusnak for Hayes, Whu's Ferrara. That's gonna be 2936 02:16:48,520 --> 02:16:52,040 Speaker 2: the first change. That's a simple swap there. We have 2937 02:16:52,200 --> 02:16:54,920 Speaker 2: Jordan Morris coming out of the field for Danny Mazowski. 2938 02:16:55,000 --> 02:16:58,280 Speaker 2: It's a simple forward swap for Seattle. And we'll see 2939 02:16:58,280 --> 02:17:00,880 Speaker 2: what this third is. I believe it was Hasani, but 2940 02:17:01,000 --> 02:17:03,040 Speaker 2: who is Hassani gonna be coming on for. We'll get 2941 02:17:03,080 --> 02:17:04,320 Speaker 2: that in just a moment. 2942 02:17:05,879 --> 02:17:06,640 Speaker 3: For Seattle. 2943 02:17:06,800 --> 02:17:09,800 Speaker 2: So a few simple like for light changes, there's actually 2944 02:17:09,800 --> 02:17:11,960 Speaker 2: gonna be Paul Ariola. That's gonna be the change for 2945 02:17:12,040 --> 02:17:14,960 Speaker 2: Susanni Dodson. So Steve, you would think then Snyder Brunell 2946 02:17:15,080 --> 02:17:17,680 Speaker 2: is gonna go up on to the right wing for Seattle. 2947 02:17:17,959 --> 02:17:18,840 Speaker 17: Yeah, that's exactly it. 2948 02:17:18,959 --> 02:17:21,720 Speaker 24: And nothing will change formation wise, We're staying his four 2949 02:17:21,760 --> 02:17:23,960 Speaker 24: to two three one, but the personnel will change and 2950 02:17:24,000 --> 02:17:26,280 Speaker 24: the way you play will change. Jordan offers a much 2951 02:17:26,360 --> 02:17:30,320 Speaker 24: bigger threat in behind than Danny Missoski did. And I 2952 02:17:30,360 --> 02:17:32,080 Speaker 24: think you combined that with Albert Rust like a couple 2953 02:17:32,120 --> 02:17:35,039 Speaker 24: of seasons ago. Those two were both you know, best 2954 02:17:35,080 --> 02:17:37,920 Speaker 24: eleven level type players. The connection they had was frightening, 2955 02:17:37,959 --> 02:17:40,360 Speaker 24: and I think you're bringing those two one branch mesha 2956 02:17:40,480 --> 02:17:42,600 Speaker 24: he wants to win. So if there's any question, is 2957 02:17:42,640 --> 02:17:44,960 Speaker 24: he saving legs for Wednesday, et cetera. No, He's born 2958 02:17:45,160 --> 02:17:47,760 Speaker 24: Jordan Morris and Albert Russknak. He wants to win this 2959 02:17:47,879 --> 02:17:49,880 Speaker 24: game and the Sounders I've played well so far in 2960 02:17:50,000 --> 02:17:52,320 Speaker 24: the second half with but twenty nine to thirty minutes 2961 02:17:52,360 --> 02:17:54,080 Speaker 24: to go, plus well we get stop his time. This 2962 02:17:54,160 --> 02:17:55,800 Speaker 24: team now set up to go for the free points. 2963 02:17:55,959 --> 02:17:58,800 Speaker 2: Now for a Houston team there once again second in 2964 02:17:58,879 --> 02:18:02,600 Speaker 2: the Western Conference with two point twenty five goals giving 2965 02:18:02,720 --> 02:18:05,680 Speaker 2: up per game nine in their four games so far. 2966 02:18:06,360 --> 02:18:10,240 Speaker 2: Not good Defensively, they're also missing their best defender, their 2967 02:18:10,280 --> 02:18:13,680 Speaker 2: center back, Eric Saviatchenko. They're also missing a great midfielder 2968 02:18:13,760 --> 02:18:16,960 Speaker 2: and Jack McGlenn. Offensively, they've been able to get things 2969 02:18:17,040 --> 02:18:21,160 Speaker 2: going through Giremey. Defensively, they've been able to pretty much 2970 02:18:21,240 --> 02:18:25,440 Speaker 2: halt anything Seattle's got going. And maybe Steve, with Jordan, 2971 02:18:25,959 --> 02:18:28,680 Speaker 2: and with Albert Rusnap and with Snyder Ronell moving up 2972 02:18:28,720 --> 02:18:30,880 Speaker 2: on line, they can find something here in Houston. 2973 02:18:31,000 --> 02:18:33,200 Speaker 24: Yeah, it's a different threat. It's just a different way 2974 02:18:33,280 --> 02:18:35,760 Speaker 24: also off doing things. I think Jordan he's not only 2975 02:18:35,920 --> 02:18:37,440 Speaker 24: a guy that can run in behind, but he just 2976 02:18:37,560 --> 02:18:39,800 Speaker 24: does give you that, and I think, hey, sus let's 2977 02:18:39,800 --> 02:18:42,400 Speaker 24: to comment get on the ball. Combined play, I think 2978 02:18:42,440 --> 02:18:45,080 Speaker 24: altbut that kill a final passe. He is the one 2979 02:18:45,200 --> 02:18:47,400 Speaker 24: unique player on the team who has that every time 2980 02:18:47,440 --> 02:18:49,560 Speaker 24: he gets the board, that connection with Jordan Morris, and 2981 02:18:49,680 --> 02:18:51,200 Speaker 24: I think for Schneider, but no, he will just give 2982 02:18:51,240 --> 02:18:53,320 Speaker 24: you a lot of will stay wide and when he 2983 02:18:53,360 --> 02:18:55,720 Speaker 24: does come inside instead on Coloney to get up there. 2984 02:18:55,920 --> 02:18:57,200 Speaker 17: I think the sounds what they have the most. 2985 02:18:57,200 --> 02:18:59,440 Speaker 24: Second off They've kept game very, very quiet, to the 2986 02:18:59,480 --> 02:19:01,320 Speaker 24: point where he he's switching wings, he's trying to find 2987 02:19:01,360 --> 02:19:01,720 Speaker 24: a board. 2988 02:19:01,879 --> 02:19:02,840 Speaker 17: That's a very good sign. 2989 02:19:03,200 --> 02:19:05,840 Speaker 24: And I think on the balance of play, the sound 2990 02:19:05,879 --> 02:19:08,080 Speaker 24: of stuff will be much happier with the adjustments Day 2991 02:19:08,120 --> 02:19:08,800 Speaker 24: made soul fussy. 2992 02:19:08,800 --> 02:19:11,000 Speaker 17: It's the hoftime way, so then the Dynamo stuff. 2993 02:19:11,040 --> 02:19:15,160 Speaker 2: Certainly so gearme nothing here in the first eighteen minutes 2994 02:19:15,200 --> 02:19:18,480 Speaker 2: of this second half, Houston in possession holding on that 2995 02:19:18,600 --> 02:19:22,840 Speaker 2: left side, the Sauni Dotson or actually Snyder Brunell right 2996 02:19:22,920 --> 02:19:25,360 Speaker 2: on top of the Dynamo who have to play it 2997 02:19:25,440 --> 02:19:28,560 Speaker 2: all the way back towards their own goal, and they 2998 02:19:28,640 --> 02:19:31,720 Speaker 2: will use Jonathan Bond. Tonight's match is presented by the 2999 02:19:31,760 --> 02:19:35,480 Speaker 2: western Washington Toyota Dealers zero zero Sounders Dynamo here in 3000 02:19:35,560 --> 02:19:38,440 Speaker 2: the sixty third minute, trying to work through the middle 3001 02:19:38,480 --> 02:19:42,800 Speaker 2: with Bogoosh, and they will Houston now trying to cut 3002 02:19:42,879 --> 02:19:46,440 Speaker 2: through a couple of lines, trying to find some space 3003 02:19:48,640 --> 02:19:50,760 Speaker 2: over on the left side for gearme. This is where 3004 02:19:50,760 --> 02:19:53,879 Speaker 2: they've had the most success today, working on Brunell and Kilani. 3005 02:19:54,240 --> 02:19:56,000 Speaker 3: Burnell takes a step, forces. 3006 02:19:55,800 --> 02:19:58,920 Speaker 2: Him all the way back out to their back line, 3007 02:19:58,920 --> 02:20:01,720 Speaker 2: which is about fifteen yards inside of Seattle's half. 3008 02:20:02,800 --> 02:20:03,920 Speaker 3: Houston way up the field. 3009 02:20:03,959 --> 02:20:06,600 Speaker 2: If Seattle can just take this ball away from a 3010 02:20:06,680 --> 02:20:08,840 Speaker 2: poor pass, they would have a chance to break ball 3011 02:20:08,920 --> 02:20:12,240 Speaker 2: into the box, and that one is cut out for 3012 02:20:12,400 --> 02:20:15,119 Speaker 2: a throw in about five yards from the end line 3013 02:20:15,440 --> 02:20:22,280 Speaker 2: on the far side the left, and a throwing will 3014 02:20:22,320 --> 02:20:24,840 Speaker 2: go down trying to earn a foul, but the ref 3015 02:20:24,959 --> 02:20:28,600 Speaker 2: says no, no gear may get up and the Sounders 3016 02:20:28,600 --> 02:20:32,440 Speaker 2: will have possession. Here trying to work from the middle 3017 02:20:32,480 --> 02:20:35,000 Speaker 2: of the field with Hasani with Rusnak, but that's ball 3018 02:20:35,120 --> 02:20:37,000 Speaker 2: is just a little bit of a heavy touch and 3019 02:20:37,000 --> 02:20:40,720 Speaker 2: the Dynamo take it right back and there's Bogosh in 3020 02:20:40,760 --> 02:20:42,400 Speaker 2: the middle of the field. Over on the west side 3021 02:20:42,440 --> 02:20:48,040 Speaker 2: for gear May again has some help. Here's a gnolly 3022 02:20:48,560 --> 02:20:51,600 Speaker 2: but once again the Sounders with double defenders there with 3023 02:20:51,680 --> 02:20:55,119 Speaker 2: Colonni and Burnell not giving Houston any space, not giving 3024 02:20:55,160 --> 02:20:58,400 Speaker 2: a nelly or and here's a boss slipped. 3025 02:20:58,120 --> 02:20:58,480 Speaker 3: In the box. 3026 02:20:58,520 --> 02:21:00,920 Speaker 2: Here's a shot at his ground by Andrew Thomas, a 3027 02:21:00,959 --> 02:21:04,120 Speaker 2: little rolling shot from mateous but the ball slipped in, 3028 02:21:04,400 --> 02:21:07,520 Speaker 2: I believe from gear May again and a chance, a 3029 02:21:07,840 --> 02:21:09,640 Speaker 2: very simple save there for Andrew Thomas. 3030 02:21:10,280 --> 02:21:12,120 Speaker 24: It was real simple anytime again, I guess in the 3031 02:21:12,160 --> 02:21:14,760 Speaker 24: boat and yes, time and space, good things tend to 3032 02:21:14,800 --> 02:21:16,760 Speaker 24: happen for the Houston Dynamos. So you shut him down. 3033 02:21:16,840 --> 02:21:19,720 Speaker 24: You essentially shut down the left to this attack and 3034 02:21:19,800 --> 02:21:23,000 Speaker 24: against finding poys. Both teams sort of throwing little japs 3035 02:21:23,040 --> 02:21:24,720 Speaker 24: here and there. No team yet able to come up 3036 02:21:24,720 --> 02:21:26,920 Speaker 24: with that blow. We feel the sound is yet to 3037 02:21:27,000 --> 02:21:29,360 Speaker 24: really find Albert Rusnak on the boat, Jordan may have 3038 02:21:29,560 --> 02:21:31,600 Speaker 24: May if I had one touch, maybe nothing yet you 3039 02:21:31,640 --> 02:21:33,040 Speaker 24: can all get the guys you've come on, get him 3040 02:21:33,040 --> 02:21:33,440 Speaker 24: involved and. 3041 02:21:33,440 --> 02:21:34,320 Speaker 17: Up to speed very quickly. 3042 02:21:34,480 --> 02:21:37,320 Speaker 2: Yes, Steve. Overall today you look at the overall performance 3043 02:21:37,360 --> 02:21:40,720 Speaker 2: of four. I mean you had Danny Muzovski and you 3044 02:21:40,760 --> 02:21:42,959 Speaker 2: know unfortunately just wasn't able to get enough of him. 3045 02:21:43,040 --> 02:21:44,560 Speaker 2: He played a little bit a hole to play, but 3046 02:21:44,720 --> 02:21:46,760 Speaker 2: just not enough. And then hey, sus Ferra had a 3047 02:21:46,800 --> 02:21:49,920 Speaker 2: couple opportunities. But certainly the Sounders need for from that 3048 02:21:50,000 --> 02:21:52,480 Speaker 2: offensive end. They need more than just long balls to 3049 02:21:52,520 --> 02:21:55,680 Speaker 2: Paul rothrockets Christian Roldan trying to find some space through 3050 02:21:55,720 --> 02:21:57,959 Speaker 2: the middle. Now out to the left side for Rusnak. 3051 02:21:58,040 --> 02:22:00,760 Speaker 2: Rusnak tries to slip ball in but a week past 3052 02:22:00,840 --> 02:22:03,440 Speaker 2: to Paul Rothrock and Houston will take this one away 3053 02:22:03,520 --> 02:22:07,080 Speaker 2: here it's zero zero Sounders Dynamo from Shell Energy Stadium 3054 02:22:07,440 --> 02:22:09,760 Speaker 2: in the sixty fifth minute. This score update is presented 3055 02:22:09,800 --> 02:22:14,440 Speaker 2: by Toyota. Houston now in possession with their back line 3056 02:22:15,320 --> 02:22:16,720 Speaker 2: sending it up onto the left side. 3057 02:22:19,280 --> 02:22:22,360 Speaker 3: We'll see if young Lawrence and. 3058 02:22:22,400 --> 02:22:28,520 Speaker 2: Aali, the German left midfielder, he's been a very promising 3059 02:22:28,600 --> 02:22:34,760 Speaker 2: player for the Dynamo of all slipping in here to 3060 02:22:34,840 --> 02:22:36,160 Speaker 2: Annali had a chance to cross. 3061 02:22:36,200 --> 02:22:36,920 Speaker 17: He will cross it in. 3062 02:22:37,200 --> 02:22:40,680 Speaker 2: And Andrew Thomas coming out just a yard to grab 3063 02:22:40,800 --> 02:22:42,920 Speaker 2: that one away before year May could tap that in. 3064 02:22:52,720 --> 02:22:53,280 Speaker 3: And here is. 3065 02:22:55,040 --> 02:22:58,440 Speaker 2: Knew who on the left side of this ball. As 3066 02:22:58,480 --> 02:23:01,040 Speaker 2: the Sounders will work in posis from their own end. 3067 02:23:10,640 --> 02:23:13,320 Speaker 2: Sounders right now holding this ball. 3068 02:23:15,920 --> 02:23:16,200 Speaker 18: As we. 3069 02:23:21,680 --> 02:23:23,800 Speaker 2: We'll get more through the middle of this back line. 3070 02:23:29,720 --> 02:23:33,320 Speaker 2: Steve working through the middle of the park. You go ahead, yeah, and. 3071 02:23:33,360 --> 02:23:35,200 Speaker 24: I think for the sound is now the last five 3072 02:23:35,240 --> 02:23:38,520 Speaker 24: minutes or so, starting to get aber Russnak on the board. 3073 02:23:38,560 --> 02:23:39,120 Speaker 3: It's what you need. 3074 02:23:39,480 --> 02:23:41,520 Speaker 24: The more you can find the ball, you'll have about 3075 02:23:41,560 --> 02:23:44,000 Speaker 24: twenty minutes or so to work. He's magic, Heber Rusnak. 3076 02:23:44,040 --> 02:23:46,080 Speaker 24: He just hasn't been able to find a ball at 3077 02:23:46,120 --> 02:23:48,520 Speaker 24: totally as yet. And he's solved the lifeblood and that 3078 02:23:48,720 --> 02:23:51,760 Speaker 24: track to Jordan Morris, that connection yet to manifest yet 3079 02:23:51,840 --> 02:23:54,840 Speaker 24: for the Sounders here as we approach the final twenty 3080 02:23:55,000 --> 02:23:57,560 Speaker 24: plus minutes, still not enough for you to run of 3081 02:23:57,600 --> 02:23:59,879 Speaker 24: play from the Sounders haven't created enough at all today. 3082 02:24:00,720 --> 02:24:02,360 Speaker 24: The one bit chance in the first half of a 3083 02:24:02,440 --> 02:24:07,280 Speaker 24: CUIs Ferrera on the second half day, Danny Mussoski coming 3084 02:24:07,440 --> 02:24:09,720 Speaker 24: close force in in the end, the deflection from the 3085 02:24:09,800 --> 02:24:11,920 Speaker 24: Houston back line that just went by the pulse. Aside 3086 02:24:11,959 --> 02:24:14,320 Speaker 24: from the outside of that, the Sounders have yet to 3087 02:24:14,400 --> 02:24:17,480 Speaker 24: create enough for all the attacking talent on the pitch. 3088 02:24:17,600 --> 02:24:21,720 Speaker 24: But this game's well poised for his final twenty twenty 3089 02:24:21,760 --> 02:24:22,600 Speaker 24: plus minutes. 3090 02:24:22,480 --> 02:24:23,560 Speaker 3: Letter Reno and apologies. 3091 02:24:23,560 --> 02:24:27,840 Speaker 2: We are experiencing some audio difficulties from our Houston feed, but. 3092 02:24:30,000 --> 02:24:30,560 Speaker 3: We're through it. 3093 02:24:33,200 --> 02:24:35,360 Speaker 2: And we'll get some better audio from Houston here in 3094 02:24:35,520 --> 02:24:37,320 Speaker 2: just a moment. As we are here in the sixty 3095 02:24:37,360 --> 02:24:42,400 Speaker 2: eighth minute in a zero zero game, here Shell Energy Stadium, 3096 02:24:44,400 --> 02:24:49,480 Speaker 2: Houston in possession from their back line. Steve with these 3097 02:24:49,560 --> 02:24:52,080 Speaker 2: games where there was clearly some weather delay, twenty minute 3098 02:24:52,120 --> 02:24:54,680 Speaker 2: weather delay the start of this game, heavy heavy rain 3099 02:24:55,160 --> 02:24:58,720 Speaker 2: throughout this entire match. Nobody in Houston isn't wearing a poncho. 3100 02:24:58,800 --> 02:25:02,200 Speaker 2: It looks like there's gonna some issues that happen. Of course, 3101 02:25:02,680 --> 02:25:03,400 Speaker 2: it's part of the game. 3102 02:25:04,200 --> 02:25:04,720 Speaker 3: On the pitch. 3103 02:25:04,840 --> 02:25:06,840 Speaker 24: Off the pitch, you never know, You never know what 3104 02:25:06,879 --> 02:25:08,959 Speaker 24: can happen. And we've been around this game long enough 3105 02:25:09,000 --> 02:25:11,200 Speaker 24: to know that you hope be prepared for whatever the 3106 02:25:11,280 --> 02:25:13,320 Speaker 24: game froze out you. But on the pitch, the game. 3107 02:25:13,200 --> 02:25:16,840 Speaker 2: Continues, certainly does is now a chance for Seattle. Here's 3108 02:25:16,959 --> 02:25:20,000 Speaker 2: Jordan tripped up long shot from distance from Hassania. It 3109 02:25:20,040 --> 02:25:22,680 Speaker 2: takes a deflection and that is going to be off 3110 02:25:22,760 --> 02:25:27,320 Speaker 2: side though on Dots and Seattle right now we'll give 3111 02:25:27,400 --> 02:25:29,760 Speaker 2: up this goal kick, but a chance they're coming out 3112 02:25:29,800 --> 02:25:32,400 Speaker 2: of nowhere. There for Jordan Morrison. That's what you might 3113 02:25:32,480 --> 02:25:34,440 Speaker 2: need in this game, something coming out of nowhere. 3114 02:25:34,760 --> 02:25:34,920 Speaker 18: Yeah. 3115 02:25:34,959 --> 02:25:37,280 Speaker 24: And Jordan the unfortunately just did in time. He's run 3116 02:25:37,480 --> 02:25:39,880 Speaker 24: well enough to get on the wrong side of the 3117 02:25:39,920 --> 02:25:42,160 Speaker 24: back line, but that's a free he gives you on 3118 02:25:42,320 --> 02:25:46,119 Speaker 24: the shoulder in behind. Even at this a more advanced 3119 02:25:46,160 --> 02:25:49,480 Speaker 24: stage of his career, still possesses that blistering speed. 3120 02:25:49,560 --> 02:25:52,560 Speaker 17: Jordan. Of course it's had a torret run with injuries. 3121 02:25:52,720 --> 02:25:53,840 Speaker 17: Really really hope for. 3122 02:25:53,959 --> 02:25:55,520 Speaker 24: His sake and the sounder sake. You want to see 3123 02:25:55,520 --> 02:25:56,760 Speaker 24: me not on the pitch, and I hope that's all 3124 02:25:56,760 --> 02:25:59,360 Speaker 24: behind him. But when he's under the threat, he does 3125 02:25:59,440 --> 02:26:01,360 Speaker 24: give you. Jordan Morris, he's the all time leading goal 3126 02:26:01,360 --> 02:26:03,480 Speaker 24: scorer for a reason, and so many of those goals 3127 02:26:03,560 --> 02:26:06,440 Speaker 24: is him playing on that last shoulder, making dashing runs 3128 02:26:06,520 --> 02:26:08,440 Speaker 24: in behind. And for a lot of those goals, the 3129 02:26:08,520 --> 02:26:10,840 Speaker 24: man who supplied him has been Albert Russnett. And that's 3130 02:26:10,879 --> 02:26:13,240 Speaker 24: the combination the Branch Spans will be hoping can just 3131 02:26:13,320 --> 02:26:15,320 Speaker 24: find them one goal. All it takes is one for 3132 02:26:15,400 --> 02:26:16,920 Speaker 24: the sound is that noil no here is a team 3133 02:26:17,000 --> 02:26:19,880 Speaker 24: that trusted defending. They're very good at keeping clean sheets 3134 02:26:19,879 --> 02:26:22,040 Speaker 24: so far this year. So is a team that is 3135 02:26:22,200 --> 02:26:24,600 Speaker 24: capable of winning one nil on the road and getting 3136 02:26:24,640 --> 02:26:25,840 Speaker 24: out of Houston with the three points. 3137 02:26:25,920 --> 02:26:27,920 Speaker 2: Knew Who with a little one two player with Christian 3138 02:26:28,000 --> 02:26:32,320 Speaker 2: Roldn about ten yards inside of Houston's half seventy fifth 3139 02:26:32,400 --> 02:26:35,480 Speaker 2: minute here Shalon Energy Stadium in Houston, zero zero still 3140 02:26:36,440 --> 02:26:39,240 Speaker 2: Bos slipped down to Burnell trying to find some space 3141 02:26:39,280 --> 02:26:41,440 Speaker 2: on this right side. He does create some space, chance 3142 02:26:41,480 --> 02:26:44,800 Speaker 2: to cross crossing and Innans cut out easily from Antonio Carlos. 3143 02:26:44,840 --> 02:26:47,120 Speaker 2: Not a good enough cross there from Burnell, who did 3144 02:26:47,160 --> 02:26:48,920 Speaker 2: a great job to find that into space. 3145 02:26:49,200 --> 02:26:51,040 Speaker 24: Yeah, and that's what the issue has been. The approach 3146 02:26:51,120 --> 02:26:53,000 Speaker 24: player hasn't been bad at all from the Saunders through 3147 02:26:53,080 --> 02:26:55,560 Speaker 24: the first two thirds for the most part. Give will 3148 02:26:55,560 --> 02:26:57,920 Speaker 24: take a few giveaways here and there, but it's once 3149 02:26:58,000 --> 02:27:01,039 Speaker 24: it got to the final third only rating two looks 3150 02:27:01,080 --> 02:27:03,760 Speaker 24: on gold for the whole game and seventeen minutes in. Obviously, 3151 02:27:03,840 --> 02:27:06,160 Speaker 24: that's below the standard this team a set for itself. 3152 02:27:06,440 --> 02:27:08,720 Speaker 24: By large part of debt is the final board just 3153 02:27:08,760 --> 02:27:10,800 Speaker 24: hasn't been there. Sometimes it's been the past that's been off. 3154 02:27:11,040 --> 02:27:13,800 Speaker 24: Sometimes the run has been off, sometimes both have been off, 3155 02:27:13,920 --> 02:27:15,920 Speaker 24: and just for whatever reason, the Sounders have been been 3156 02:27:15,959 --> 02:27:18,160 Speaker 24: able to put all together. But all it takes is 3157 02:27:18,200 --> 02:27:20,200 Speaker 24: one moment and his son, you have the quality on 3158 02:27:20,320 --> 02:27:21,720 Speaker 24: there to produce that one moment. 3159 02:27:21,600 --> 02:27:24,040 Speaker 2: As we saw their dots and Jordan nearly combined for 3160 02:27:24,120 --> 02:27:26,600 Speaker 2: that one moment just a few minutes ago, but Jordan 3161 02:27:26,760 --> 02:27:29,560 Speaker 2: was offside, and the Sounders have twenty minutes to find 3162 02:27:29,640 --> 02:27:30,680 Speaker 2: that knockout punch. 3163 02:27:31,000 --> 02:27:32,560 Speaker 3: It may only take one here. 3164 02:27:32,440 --> 02:27:38,160 Speaker 2: Today, as the heavy rain continues to come down, Christian 3165 02:27:39,760 --> 02:27:43,640 Speaker 2: to Burnell on the right, to Rothrock, who's also there, 3166 02:27:43,720 --> 02:27:46,480 Speaker 2: a lot of movements with various players to try to 3167 02:27:46,560 --> 02:27:50,760 Speaker 2: create some straights and create some chances. Reagan holding possession 3168 02:27:51,160 --> 02:27:54,199 Speaker 2: middle of the park, right inside the center circle, Rusnak 3169 02:27:54,240 --> 02:27:56,600 Speaker 2: now dropping back to get involved, to knew who on 3170 02:27:56,680 --> 02:28:02,520 Speaker 2: the left, Seattle looking for some space, looking for some 3171 02:28:02,640 --> 02:28:06,400 Speaker 2: opportunities here with Burnell now on the left side, Reagan 3172 02:28:06,800 --> 02:28:07,680 Speaker 2: and he get tripped up. 3173 02:28:07,760 --> 02:28:08,360 Speaker 3: Is that a foul? 3174 02:28:09,440 --> 02:28:11,320 Speaker 2: That will be a foul and I believe it will 3175 02:28:11,360 --> 02:28:13,360 Speaker 2: be a yellow card to Jackson and Reagan here in 3176 02:28:13,480 --> 02:28:17,520 Speaker 2: the seventy second minutes and a free kick coming for 3177 02:28:17,600 --> 02:28:19,800 Speaker 2: Houston about ten yards inside of Seattle's half. 3178 02:28:20,000 --> 02:28:23,360 Speaker 24: Yeah, Seattle craned their own problems there, almost over possessing 3179 02:28:23,400 --> 02:28:26,240 Speaker 24: them being overpatient. At some point, someone's got to take 3180 02:28:26,240 --> 02:28:29,360 Speaker 24: a risk. Tran player passing behind Houston Dynamo defended well 3181 02:28:29,720 --> 02:28:31,520 Speaker 24: force the Sounders all the way back. The boat found 3182 02:28:31,520 --> 02:28:33,600 Speaker 24: his way to Jackson. Reagan, w you're the last man. 3183 02:28:34,080 --> 02:28:35,959 Speaker 24: You can't try and dribble pus two or three players 3184 02:28:36,000 --> 02:28:38,160 Speaker 24: at Jackson just getting co up in it, and Indian 3185 02:28:38,240 --> 02:28:40,640 Speaker 24: come in a quick foul just to prevent the Houston 3186 02:28:40,680 --> 02:28:42,400 Speaker 24: transition counter attap Gendie off away. 3187 02:28:42,680 --> 02:28:45,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, that counterattack on that right side would have been dangerous. 3188 02:28:45,480 --> 02:28:48,160 Speaker 2: With Reagan in a compromising position, that could have been 3189 02:28:48,280 --> 02:28:50,280 Speaker 2: very bad. So we'll take that yellow card to keep 3190 02:28:50,360 --> 02:28:54,480 Speaker 2: this match zero zero. As the Houston player gets treated there, 3191 02:28:54,720 --> 02:28:56,400 Speaker 2: I'll get a number here in just a moment. As 3192 02:28:56,480 --> 02:28:59,200 Speaker 2: he is rolling on his side and what seems like 3193 02:28:59,520 --> 02:29:02,080 Speaker 2: the egg of the worst pain of his life. I 3194 02:29:02,200 --> 02:29:04,880 Speaker 2: believe that as ponce now we're seeing number ten, the 3195 02:29:05,080 --> 02:29:08,640 Speaker 2: main fod for Houston, he is in some severe pain. 3196 02:29:08,720 --> 02:29:12,080 Speaker 2: It appears after Jackson Reagan clipped him just a little bit. 3197 02:29:12,360 --> 02:29:15,320 Speaker 2: Well mention that the superior game meets superior taste. Grab 3198 02:29:15,440 --> 02:29:17,959 Speaker 2: a michelob Ultra the superior light beer as you cheer 3199 02:29:18,000 --> 02:29:21,400 Speaker 2: your team on mikelob Ultra, official beer sponsor of Seattle 3200 02:29:21,440 --> 02:29:22,039 Speaker 2: Sounders FC. 3201 02:29:25,840 --> 02:29:29,240 Speaker 3: We'll see if we have some better audio from Houston. 3202 02:29:30,440 --> 02:29:35,480 Speaker 2: There we go, problem solved everybody, as this match will 3203 02:29:35,720 --> 02:29:38,640 Speaker 2: get back underway here in just a moment, Ponse being treated, 3204 02:29:39,080 --> 02:29:43,680 Speaker 2: the high priced striker that Houston bought just a couple 3205 02:29:43,720 --> 02:29:46,960 Speaker 2: of years ago, of course, played in Roma. 3206 02:29:47,120 --> 02:29:49,759 Speaker 3: He was with Newell's Old Boys in his hometown. 3207 02:29:49,400 --> 02:29:54,000 Speaker 2: In Argentina, Rosario, Argentina, played a lot of different places 3208 02:29:54,040 --> 02:29:56,840 Speaker 2: in Europe over the years, and signed with Houston as 3209 02:29:56,879 --> 02:30:01,320 Speaker 2: their most expensive signing ever back in June of twenty 3210 02:30:01,360 --> 02:30:05,360 Speaker 2: twenty four. But he's been good, not as good as 3211 02:30:05,640 --> 02:30:08,080 Speaker 2: the Dynamo would have hoped, as he is still down 3212 02:30:08,520 --> 02:30:11,560 Speaker 2: getting treated from trainers here in the seventy fourth minute 3213 02:30:11,600 --> 02:30:16,480 Speaker 2: of this zero zero game. We also mentioned that this 3214 02:30:16,640 --> 02:30:19,760 Speaker 2: covered audio cast on Major League Soccer may not be retransmitted, reproduced, 3215 02:30:19,840 --> 02:30:23,440 Speaker 2: or rebroadcast without the express written consent of Major League Soccer. 3216 02:30:23,520 --> 02:30:27,680 Speaker 2: As Ponce is slowly helped to his feet from trainers, 3217 02:30:28,920 --> 02:30:31,960 Speaker 2: and we'll see if Houston will be needing to make 3218 02:30:32,000 --> 02:30:35,320 Speaker 2: a change. He's having some words with Giermey as he 3219 02:30:35,560 --> 02:30:38,000 Speaker 2: slowly walks off the field. Of course, we know the 3220 02:30:38,240 --> 02:30:41,640 Speaker 2: MLS rules about how long you have to be out 3221 02:30:41,720 --> 02:30:45,240 Speaker 2: after coming off of a field. Those get very much bent, 3222 02:30:45,520 --> 02:30:48,480 Speaker 2: those rules, and I believe they're gonna get bent again 3223 02:30:48,680 --> 02:30:52,080 Speaker 2: as Ponce, despite the fact that he was down for 3224 02:30:52,600 --> 02:30:55,199 Speaker 2: a good few minutes, there is staying on the field 3225 02:30:55,240 --> 02:30:58,800 Speaker 2: and not coming off. We'll see lots of players standing 3226 02:30:58,840 --> 02:31:00,760 Speaker 2: around talking to each other. This is all going to 3227 02:31:00,800 --> 02:31:03,760 Speaker 2: be added time later on, as we could see lots 3228 02:31:03,760 --> 02:31:07,200 Speaker 2: of ada minutes Brian Schmitzer speaking, probably wondering the same 3229 02:31:07,280 --> 02:31:10,080 Speaker 2: thing we are of Hey, if Ponce is sitting down 3230 02:31:10,160 --> 02:31:12,080 Speaker 2: getting treated for an injury for that long. 3231 02:31:12,600 --> 02:31:16,080 Speaker 3: He also has to then wait on the sideline. He 3232 02:31:16,160 --> 02:31:17,360 Speaker 3: can't immediately be. 3233 02:31:17,480 --> 02:31:21,200 Speaker 2: Back into this game right when the whistle blows. And 3234 02:31:21,360 --> 02:31:26,520 Speaker 2: we'll see what happens here as Ismael l Fath gets 3235 02:31:26,680 --> 02:31:29,440 Speaker 2: now a few more Houston players coming up, and the 3236 02:31:29,560 --> 02:31:31,440 Speaker 2: Houston will make a change here. It's going to be 3237 02:31:31,520 --> 02:31:36,240 Speaker 2: Andre Linger coming onto this field right now in the 3238 02:31:36,320 --> 02:31:40,640 Speaker 2: seventy fifth minute. See what change this is. This is 3239 02:31:40,680 --> 02:31:43,000 Speaker 2: for Dwayne Holmes. So that is a kind of a 3240 02:31:43,280 --> 02:31:46,640 Speaker 2: right midfielder fullback player coming off and a forward and 3241 02:31:46,720 --> 02:31:51,480 Speaker 2: Linger coming onto the field and maybe another big attacking 3242 02:31:51,640 --> 02:31:54,400 Speaker 2: weapon for Houston to throw numbers forward to find a 3243 02:31:54,440 --> 02:31:59,160 Speaker 2: blow against Seattle in this zero zero game. See how 3244 02:31:59,240 --> 02:32:02,840 Speaker 2: Houston's formed may evolve taking off a midfielder and putting 3245 02:32:02,840 --> 02:32:09,600 Speaker 2: on a forward as the Sounders will have possession of 3246 02:32:09,720 --> 02:32:11,600 Speaker 2: throw in from the middle of the park, Rothrock trying 3247 02:32:11,640 --> 02:32:14,200 Speaker 2: to send a ball long to Morris doesn't reach him. 3248 02:32:14,240 --> 02:32:17,800 Speaker 2: Houston will get possession here with Linger working through the 3249 02:32:17,840 --> 02:32:21,360 Speaker 2: middle of the park and Houston will now send it 3250 02:32:21,440 --> 02:32:26,680 Speaker 2: back to their back line and with Jonathan Bond in 3251 02:32:26,840 --> 02:32:38,360 Speaker 2: goal now working off to this left and now over 3252 02:32:38,440 --> 02:32:40,520 Speaker 2: to the right, Houston trying to send a long ball 3253 02:32:40,640 --> 02:32:44,039 Speaker 2: forward where the Sounders will earn possession here with Burn 3254 02:32:44,200 --> 02:32:48,800 Speaker 2: with Hassani Dotson. But that's a giveaway and another giveaway 3255 02:32:48,959 --> 02:32:51,840 Speaker 2: as it's now back to the Sounders back line. A 3256 02:32:51,920 --> 02:32:54,280 Speaker 2: lot of direct balls right now from Houston, who have 3257 02:32:54,400 --> 02:32:57,039 Speaker 2: now kind of we wondered how their formation was going 3258 02:32:57,120 --> 02:32:57,480 Speaker 2: to change. 3259 02:32:57,520 --> 02:32:58,800 Speaker 3: They are really working. 3260 02:32:58,640 --> 02:33:01,040 Speaker 2: With now a front four and what is almost like 3261 02:33:01,080 --> 02:33:04,840 Speaker 2: a three three four formation. Houston just sending lots of 3262 02:33:04,920 --> 02:33:08,320 Speaker 2: numbers forward right now to try to find a goal 3263 02:33:08,320 --> 02:33:09,080 Speaker 2: against Seattle. 3264 02:33:09,680 --> 02:33:11,920 Speaker 24: Yeah, and ben O Sunday obviously just gonna throw more 3265 02:33:12,040 --> 02:33:14,760 Speaker 24: numbers into the tech try to overwhelm this sound as 3266 02:33:14,800 --> 02:33:16,879 Speaker 24: his backline, which has faced a lot of pressure, especially 3267 02:33:16,920 --> 02:33:19,520 Speaker 24: at first off today and stood strong so far. And 3268 02:33:19,640 --> 02:33:21,320 Speaker 24: on the other hand, the sound is also bringing on 3269 02:33:21,400 --> 02:33:23,879 Speaker 24: a lot of attacking players. Just not able to get 3270 02:33:23,959 --> 02:33:26,160 Speaker 24: Jordan Morris a toll involved in a game. And it's 3271 02:33:26,240 --> 02:33:28,800 Speaker 24: that's not really Jordan because Danny Missovski struggled just the 3272 02:33:28,840 --> 02:33:31,760 Speaker 24: same way. Albert Rusnak hasn't found the game even either 3273 02:33:31,840 --> 02:33:34,760 Speaker 24: team really been able to produce the absolute best quality 3274 02:33:34,840 --> 02:33:37,320 Speaker 24: This game behinds in the balance as he approaches final 3275 02:33:37,400 --> 02:33:39,760 Speaker 24: fifteen minutes plus what would be a good chunk of at. 3276 02:33:39,680 --> 02:33:42,680 Speaker 2: The time, and Steve Rinchmanzer talked about this, you needing 3277 02:33:42,760 --> 02:33:45,520 Speaker 2: to find their offense still being a concern on this team. 3278 02:33:45,600 --> 02:33:48,280 Speaker 2: Morris is back from his injury, but it is still 3279 02:33:48,440 --> 02:33:50,280 Speaker 2: a question of where the goals are gonna come from. 3280 02:33:50,360 --> 02:33:52,680 Speaker 2: We can't only have goals, to me speaking now, we 3281 02:33:52,760 --> 02:33:55,920 Speaker 2: can't only have goals from Paul Rothrock and he leads 3282 02:33:55,959 --> 02:33:58,360 Speaker 2: the team with those four goals, we need a lot 3283 02:33:58,480 --> 02:34:02,640 Speaker 2: more than just Paul and Jordan Morris coming back will 3284 02:34:02,680 --> 02:34:03,200 Speaker 2: need to lead it is. 3285 02:34:03,240 --> 02:34:05,080 Speaker 3: It's a slipped ball in here to the left side, 3286 02:34:05,080 --> 02:34:05,840 Speaker 3: in the middle of the box. 3287 02:34:05,920 --> 02:34:09,440 Speaker 2: Cross coming in from Anali to the far side, far 3288 02:34:09,560 --> 02:34:12,520 Speaker 2: post the right, but it goes too far and Linger 3289 02:34:12,560 --> 02:34:14,959 Speaker 2: will keep it in bounds here on this right wing 3290 02:34:15,800 --> 02:34:17,840 Speaker 2: and he'll play this one back. A chance there from Anale, 3291 02:34:17,959 --> 02:34:20,360 Speaker 2: but not a good cross there in that primus cist 3292 02:34:20,400 --> 02:34:23,400 Speaker 2: zone on the left as Houston attack. Here in the 3293 02:34:23,480 --> 02:34:27,040 Speaker 2: seventy eighth minutes, here's Giamet trying to find some space 3294 02:34:27,080 --> 02:34:29,640 Speaker 2: for Linger on the right, working on new who out 3295 02:34:29,720 --> 02:34:32,120 Speaker 2: back to bo Goose. Bog Goose trying to create some space, 3296 02:34:32,160 --> 02:34:35,000 Speaker 2: crossing it in headed away, a good job heading that 3297 02:34:35,040 --> 02:34:37,280 Speaker 2: away from Steiner Burnell. It will be out for a 3298 02:34:37,400 --> 02:34:40,279 Speaker 2: Houston corner. Here in the seventy eighth minute, Steve. 3299 02:34:40,160 --> 02:34:42,160 Speaker 24: Yeah, a number set piece Uportunity comeing in for the 3300 02:34:42,160 --> 02:34:44,120 Speaker 24: Houston Dynamo does not being able to make the most 3301 02:34:44,200 --> 02:34:46,480 Speaker 24: of it as of yet, just beginning to apply a 3302 02:34:46,520 --> 02:34:48,320 Speaker 24: little bit pressure. You're seeing the numbers they'f I died 3303 02:34:48,360 --> 02:34:50,400 Speaker 24: this on this right hand side where they reoverload and 3304 02:34:50,440 --> 02:34:53,080 Speaker 24: trying to overwhelm new Who by sending more buddies more 3305 02:34:53,160 --> 02:34:55,240 Speaker 24: numbers to that right hand, to that right hand side, 3306 02:34:55,280 --> 02:34:57,920 Speaker 24: sound his left hand side, and now Giem gets back 3307 02:34:58,000 --> 02:35:00,680 Speaker 24: on set piece twos as the animal try to find. 3308 02:35:00,520 --> 02:35:01,000 Speaker 17: The break food. 3309 02:35:01,040 --> 02:35:02,680 Speaker 2: They switched it to bout Goosh. Now they've switched it 3310 02:35:02,760 --> 02:35:05,280 Speaker 2: back to gear May. It's gonna be an outswinger from 3311 02:35:05,320 --> 02:35:09,160 Speaker 2: the right and it's headed away and Houston will retain 3312 02:35:09,200 --> 02:35:12,199 Speaker 2: possession though here and send it back down to Gierme 3313 02:35:12,400 --> 02:35:12,920 Speaker 2: here on. 3314 02:35:13,000 --> 02:35:17,280 Speaker 3: This right side. Now back out to beau Goosh cross 3315 02:35:17,360 --> 02:35:18,760 Speaker 3: coming in. Can he find ahead? 3316 02:35:18,800 --> 02:35:22,360 Speaker 2: It's Andrew Thomas jumping and easily catching, and Thomas will 3317 02:35:22,720 --> 02:35:27,440 Speaker 2: stare down the lards Augustine resh the young Wresch who 3318 02:35:28,120 --> 02:35:31,120 Speaker 2: went right next to Thomas there on that kind of 3319 02:35:31,200 --> 02:35:35,120 Speaker 2: loop ball from bau Goosh. But the Sounders will now 3320 02:35:35,200 --> 02:35:38,240 Speaker 2: have possession here, working through the middle of the park 3321 02:35:38,280 --> 02:35:42,480 Speaker 2: with Christian rolled on out to the right now and 3322 02:35:42,680 --> 02:35:47,280 Speaker 2: back to their back line. No press from Houston. Eleven 3323 02:35:47,320 --> 02:35:49,879 Speaker 2: minutes and stoppage left in this game. As the rain 3324 02:35:50,000 --> 02:35:54,520 Speaker 2: continues to come down, knew Who on the ball on 3325 02:35:54,600 --> 02:35:56,439 Speaker 2: the left using a Reagan. 3326 02:35:58,440 --> 02:35:59,120 Speaker 3: The Sounders. 3327 02:35:59,360 --> 02:36:03,200 Speaker 2: The one chain they had when Houston finally pressed nearly 3328 02:36:03,320 --> 02:36:06,720 Speaker 2: led to a goal. The long ball here from Hassania 3329 02:36:06,760 --> 02:36:10,360 Speaker 2: out to the left side to Rothrock. Rothrock closed down 3330 02:36:10,400 --> 02:36:14,920 Speaker 2: on quickly backed out to Knew Who because the Sounder. 3331 02:36:14,760 --> 02:36:16,360 Speaker 3: Was able to step up a little bit with their 3332 02:36:16,440 --> 02:36:22,320 Speaker 3: lines Dotson Rothrock on the left having to go back out. 3333 02:36:22,360 --> 02:36:24,880 Speaker 2: As Houston has done very well in this game to 3334 02:36:25,000 --> 02:36:29,000 Speaker 2: close down any Sounder here in the second half, especially, 3335 02:36:29,600 --> 02:36:32,280 Speaker 2: but the moment Houston pressed even that first half, the 3336 02:36:32,320 --> 02:36:34,959 Speaker 2: Sounders had a chance. Would love to see if Houston 3337 02:36:35,000 --> 02:36:37,600 Speaker 2: pressed a little bit further, pressed a little more numbers 3338 02:36:37,680 --> 02:36:41,320 Speaker 2: forward and maybe created another Sounder's chance. Has Knew Who 3339 02:36:41,440 --> 02:36:44,520 Speaker 2: nearly gives the ball away if foul is called on 3340 02:36:44,760 --> 02:36:48,800 Speaker 2: ponce and we'll have a Seattle free kick from just 3341 02:36:48,879 --> 02:36:50,080 Speaker 2: inside the Dynamo half. 3342 02:36:50,840 --> 02:36:52,640 Speaker 24: Yeah, And I think to your point, the Dynamo, you know, 3343 02:36:52,760 --> 02:36:55,800 Speaker 24: they've known that dead defensive vehicle hasn't been the best. 3344 02:36:55,920 --> 02:36:57,760 Speaker 24: So the best way to defend is just to get 3345 02:36:57,959 --> 02:37:01,080 Speaker 24: of numbers behind a board. Two blocks are full and 3346 02:37:01,280 --> 02:37:03,440 Speaker 24: the Sounders do make a change. I I'm surprised we've 3347 02:37:03,440 --> 02:37:05,480 Speaker 24: not seen a saws a come on hip foot of 3348 02:37:05,560 --> 02:37:08,640 Speaker 24: sound is maybe take rofroukoff, put Jordan to the left, 3349 02:37:08,720 --> 02:37:10,600 Speaker 24: Osasey up top another attacking buddy. 3350 02:37:10,640 --> 02:37:13,120 Speaker 17: But is Kingston who comes on here? 3351 02:37:13,160 --> 02:37:13,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, house out. 3352 02:37:14,400 --> 02:37:16,480 Speaker 2: How about Peter Kingston who was just signed to the 3353 02:37:16,560 --> 02:37:20,199 Speaker 2: first team yesterday. He's obviously had one start in MS 3354 02:37:20,280 --> 02:37:24,120 Speaker 2: action three total appearances this year. Will signed the first 3355 02:37:24,160 --> 02:37:27,879 Speaker 2: team announced just yesterday to a deal with options through 3356 02:37:27,920 --> 02:37:30,720 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty eight season. And here he is coming 3357 02:37:30,840 --> 02:37:34,240 Speaker 2: onto the field, onto this right wing. We'll see if 3358 02:37:34,320 --> 02:37:37,160 Speaker 2: Peter Kingston, who is very good, he created some good 3359 02:37:37,240 --> 02:37:40,199 Speaker 2: things and now win over Vancouver and Spokane off the bench, 3360 02:37:40,600 --> 02:37:44,200 Speaker 2: can he find some magic? The former Seattle YOUU player 3361 02:37:44,240 --> 02:37:46,880 Speaker 2: under Pete viewing the former Washington Husky and her Jamie Clark, 3362 02:37:47,040 --> 02:37:49,560 Speaker 2: the former Ballard FC player now on the field for 3363 02:37:49,600 --> 02:37:53,080 Speaker 2: the Sounders, crossing in trying to find Jordan Morris. Ball 3364 02:37:53,120 --> 02:37:57,320 Speaker 2: bounces out Roosnack shot blocked Houston blocking away what It 3365 02:37:57,440 --> 02:37:59,720 Speaker 2: was a good chance for the Sounders here in the 3366 02:37:59,720 --> 02:38:03,840 Speaker 2: eighties second minute. Can Seattle retain possession? Bogos takes that 3367 02:38:04,000 --> 02:38:06,640 Speaker 2: ball and we'll try to work this up the field 3368 02:38:06,640 --> 02:38:09,000 Speaker 2: for the Dynamo. But a quick giveaway and Seattle will 3369 02:38:09,000 --> 02:38:13,480 Speaker 2: have possession back very quickly. There are things working there 3370 02:38:13,800 --> 02:38:16,600 Speaker 2: and now here it is onto this right side with 3371 02:38:16,680 --> 02:38:19,240 Speaker 2: Jordan Morris holds up play out to Kingston Kingston on 3372 02:38:19,320 --> 02:38:24,640 Speaker 2: the right, back out Klannie to Christian to Kingston again 3373 02:38:24,680 --> 02:38:25,040 Speaker 2: on the right. 3374 02:38:25,120 --> 02:38:26,240 Speaker 3: He has Jordan for help. 3375 02:38:27,200 --> 02:38:30,680 Speaker 2: Little step over to Rusnak middle Roosnak slides of ball 3376 02:38:30,720 --> 02:38:35,080 Speaker 2: in Kingston shot blocked another block from Houston.

And because the team has 3540 02:47:01,720 --> 02:47:03,880 Speaker 24: not played very very well, but the side of a 3541 02:47:03,959 --> 02:47:06,880 Speaker 24: really good team is winning, especially on the road. 3542 02:47:07,080 --> 02:47:08,200 Speaker 17: Well you know, be nag business. 3543 02:47:08,200 --> 02:47:10,160 Speaker 2: I mean, Steve, you think about the one nothing wins 3544 02:47:10,200 --> 02:47:12,080 Speaker 2: for this team in twenty twenty six and this is 3545 02:47:12,240 --> 02:47:15,720 Speaker 2: just another one of them where good offense is good 3546 02:47:15,760 --> 02:47:17,560 Speaker 2: attacks and you have to just make do with a 3547 02:47:17,720 --> 02:47:18,800 Speaker 2: very injured defense. 3548 02:47:19,440 --> 02:47:21,800 Speaker 3: And Seattle is doing so again here tonight with working 3549 02:47:21,840 --> 02:47:22,520 Speaker 3: on a clean sheet. 3550 02:47:22,560 --> 02:47:26,640 Speaker 2: We're into the ninety first minute of what referee Ismail 3551 02:47:26,760 --> 02:47:29,200 Speaker 2: Lfath will say will be at least ninety six. Linger 3552 02:47:29,520 --> 02:47:32,520 Speaker 2: tries to pop a ball up and tapped away from 3553 02:47:32,600 --> 02:47:35,560 Speaker 2: Andrew Thomas. A corner will come here in the ninety 3554 02:47:35,640 --> 02:47:38,400 Speaker 2: second minute, as that was a tricky ball from Linger 3555 02:47:38,600 --> 02:47:41,920 Speaker 2: who just tried to find a little bit behind Andrew 3556 02:47:42,000 --> 02:47:47,200 Speaker 2: Thomas and it produces a Houston corner. You imagine Giermey, 3557 02:47:47,240 --> 02:47:50,440 Speaker 2: who's produced the biggest danger of the day for the Dynamo, 3558 02:47:50,560 --> 02:47:53,039 Speaker 2: will be on this one. And it's a creative shot 3559 02:47:53,240 --> 02:47:55,680 Speaker 2: to create that corner. Steve, Yeah, it was, and here 3560 02:47:55,720 --> 02:47:58,240 Speaker 2: comes the end swinger, very fast, headed on through. 3561 02:47:58,840 --> 02:48:01,360 Speaker 3: Houston will have it on the far side. 3562 02:48:01,560 --> 02:48:04,440 Speaker 2: They'll reset Herrera trying to find some space, crossing it 3563 02:48:04,520 --> 02:48:09,240 Speaker 2: around left foot, headed through and it's off target. Slams 3564 02:48:09,280 --> 02:48:11,880 Speaker 2: his fist to the ground and that will go out 3565 02:48:11,959 --> 02:48:13,879 Speaker 2: for a goal kick here in the ninety second minute, Steve, 3566 02:48:14,160 --> 02:48:16,200 Speaker 2: very quick corner there that nearly led to a chance. 3567 02:48:16,240 --> 02:48:19,160 Speaker 24: I mean, the commitment to defending by the soundest team, 3568 02:48:19,360 --> 02:48:22,080 Speaker 24: it's impressive to watch. I mean it's tough to go 3569 02:48:22,200 --> 02:48:25,119 Speaker 24: on the road and grind out results week after week, 3570 02:48:25,160 --> 02:48:26,960 Speaker 24: and this teams so far. You know they knew coming 3571 02:48:27,000 --> 02:48:29,440 Speaker 24: into it they weren't going to see their home field 3572 02:48:29,520 --> 02:48:31,320 Speaker 24: for a while because of the girls being instored for 3573 02:48:31,360 --> 02:48:32,840 Speaker 24: the World Cup. If I had to go on the 3574 02:48:32,920 --> 02:48:35,040 Speaker 24: road and almost we're not there yet. I don't want 3575 02:48:35,040 --> 02:48:36,880 Speaker 24: to get ahead of myself to say, you have four 3576 02:48:36,959 --> 02:48:39,400 Speaker 24: wins out of the opening six games and you've advanced 3577 02:48:39,680 --> 02:48:42,520 Speaker 24: in the continental competition a start to the season and 3578 02:48:42,720 --> 02:48:45,800 Speaker 24: you've been nowhere near your very best form attacking wise. 3579 02:48:46,120 --> 02:48:48,600 Speaker 24: This team, it's showing that they have the makings of 3580 02:48:48,680 --> 02:48:50,880 Speaker 24: what a good team it can be. But still three 3581 02:48:50,920 --> 02:48:52,720 Speaker 24: and a half minutes to go here, Just go hold on, 3582 02:48:52,840 --> 02:48:56,960 Speaker 24: play the corners, walk to everything, nothing rushing here, usual 3583 02:48:57,000 --> 02:48:59,080 Speaker 24: experience you have, and then get out of Texas with 3584 02:48:59,160 --> 02:48:59,720 Speaker 24: a good victory. 3585 02:49:00,080 --> 02:49:02,600 Speaker 2: To making their final change of the night, it's Sam Vines, 3586 02:49:02,640 --> 02:49:05,160 Speaker 2: a fullback coming on for a center back Augustin Resh 3587 02:49:05,720 --> 02:49:08,959 Speaker 2: so that one final change to maybe the Dynamar are 3588 02:49:09,000 --> 02:49:12,400 Speaker 2: hoping giving them one more attacking piece to find an equalizer. 3589 02:49:12,720 --> 02:49:16,400 Speaker 2: Right now, Paul Rothrock's eighty second minute goal on the 3590 02:49:16,640 --> 02:49:19,439 Speaker 2: what should be a double assist from both Klonie Cozorienzi 3591 02:49:19,480 --> 02:49:22,640 Speaker 2: and Jordan Morris who headed it on to Rothrock, that 3592 02:49:22,760 --> 02:49:26,240 Speaker 2: would stand right now as the winner. Here as we 3593 02:49:26,360 --> 02:49:29,280 Speaker 2: are in the ninety third minute, Peter Kingston with a 3594 02:49:29,360 --> 02:49:31,640 Speaker 2: throw in about ten yards from the end line in 3595 02:49:31,800 --> 02:49:36,760 Speaker 2: Houston's half. A long throw in is easily taken from Houston, 3596 02:49:37,360 --> 02:49:39,280 Speaker 2: that is it possessed. They'll try to send a long 3597 02:49:39,360 --> 02:49:42,080 Speaker 2: ball through, but Jackson Reagan is there to hold possession 3598 02:49:42,120 --> 02:49:44,240 Speaker 2: for Seattle, and he will find a lot of space 3599 02:49:44,280 --> 02:49:48,080 Speaker 2: for Kilanie here out on the right, a lot of 3600 02:49:48,120 --> 02:49:51,280 Speaker 2: space for Kilanie. He finds Alex Schrouldan playing up on 3601 02:49:51,400 --> 02:49:53,920 Speaker 2: the right wing right now, and he will take it 3602 02:49:54,000 --> 02:49:58,160 Speaker 2: to the corner. Alex Schrrouldan, playing very defensive off the corner, 3603 02:49:58,280 --> 02:50:00,360 Speaker 2: hits the flag and it will go out off of 3604 02:50:00,400 --> 02:50:03,320 Speaker 2: Al Trodaon's foot for a throw in for Houston. Here 3605 02:50:03,560 --> 02:50:06,840 Speaker 2: two and a half minutes remaining of the ninety plus 3606 02:50:07,000 --> 02:50:12,360 Speaker 2: six added. Can it be another one nothing defensive win 3607 02:50:12,720 --> 02:50:16,400 Speaker 2: for the Sounders? Houston a chance trying to throw their 3608 02:50:16,480 --> 02:50:19,400 Speaker 2: numbers forward, but a great job at Green Shirt's coming 3609 02:50:19,520 --> 02:50:21,960 Speaker 2: back to hit that all the way back to Andrew Thomas. 3610 02:50:22,800 --> 02:50:24,600 Speaker 3: And Andrew Thomas can stay on this ball. 3611 02:50:24,680 --> 02:50:27,360 Speaker 2: He'll takes it closer to his headline, waiting for Linger 3612 02:50:27,360 --> 02:50:29,160 Speaker 2: to get close to him, and then he will pick 3613 02:50:29,240 --> 02:50:31,560 Speaker 2: it on up and take an extra few seconds, push 3614 02:50:31,640 --> 02:50:36,040 Speaker 2: his numbers forward and count down the seconds to what 3615 02:50:36,240 --> 02:50:40,600 Speaker 2: could be another one nothing Seattle win, and the narratives 3616 02:50:40,600 --> 02:50:43,840 Speaker 2: can already start being written about Seattle here in twenty 3617 02:50:43,920 --> 02:50:48,640 Speaker 2: twenty six. Not enough offense, but you get just enough 3618 02:50:48,959 --> 02:50:51,160 Speaker 2: with an incredible defensive performance. 3619 02:50:52,520 --> 02:50:55,039 Speaker 3: Houston now under two minutes remaining. 3620 02:50:55,080 --> 02:50:58,400 Speaker 2: They have possession middle of the park for Herrera trying 3621 02:50:58,440 --> 02:50:59,760 Speaker 2: to find their way through to the left side. 3622 02:50:59,760 --> 02:51:03,080 Speaker 3: Now finding some space vines up to left for all 3623 02:51:03,160 --> 02:51:08,160 Speaker 3: you working on Alex Rodan and Alex Roldan will shove 3624 02:51:08,440 --> 02:51:12,199 Speaker 3: down the Dynamo and is going to be a foul. 3625 02:51:12,360 --> 02:51:13,280 Speaker 3: But should it? 3626 02:51:13,400 --> 02:51:15,960 Speaker 24: Steve, I don't think that's a foul. I'm watching the 3627 02:51:16,000 --> 02:51:18,320 Speaker 24: pay develop and I think Alex reads him really well. 3628 02:51:18,360 --> 02:51:19,920 Speaker 24: He just happens to be first of the space. He 3629 02:51:20,000 --> 02:51:22,080 Speaker 24: read that really really well. We'll seeing the first replay 3630 02:51:22,120 --> 02:51:23,920 Speaker 24: here and gave me is a tricky plan. Alex just 3631 02:51:23,959 --> 02:51:28,560 Speaker 24: steps early. I listen, I can see why I gave him. 3632 02:51:28,600 --> 02:51:32,480 Speaker 24: He sold that very very well, very very very Yes, 3633 02:51:33,160 --> 02:51:35,680 Speaker 24: I don't think that's a foul, but it's probably gonna 3634 02:51:35,680 --> 02:51:38,039 Speaker 24: be the last big chance for Houston in a very 3635 02:51:38,160 --> 02:51:39,000 Speaker 24: very dangerous position. 3636 02:51:39,440 --> 02:51:42,520 Speaker 2: Here's a kick comes in, It's headed away. Klane got 3637 02:51:42,560 --> 02:51:44,760 Speaker 2: ahead to it, goes far and out. It will be 3638 02:51:44,920 --> 02:51:49,160 Speaker 2: a Houston corner kick. As the clock strikes ninety five, 3639 02:51:49,280 --> 02:51:51,840 Speaker 2: we are into the final minute of add time here 3640 02:51:51,879 --> 02:51:55,680 Speaker 2: at Shell Energy Stadium. The rain is tapered off and 3641 02:51:55,840 --> 02:51:58,480 Speaker 2: gear May will take this kick here in the dying 3642 02:51:58,560 --> 02:52:00,720 Speaker 2: moments of this game. They'll hold up for a moment. 3643 02:52:00,959 --> 02:52:04,360 Speaker 2: Here comes gear May looking for an out swinger. Referee, 3644 02:52:05,480 --> 02:52:08,040 Speaker 2: We'll make sure everybody is behaving inside the box for 3645 02:52:08,120 --> 02:52:09,920 Speaker 2: what could be the final chance for the Dynamo. 3646 02:52:10,200 --> 02:52:13,240 Speaker 3: Gear May's kick comes in, it's headed. 3647 02:52:13,000 --> 02:52:16,640 Speaker 2: Away from New Who and then oh Jordan Morris had 3648 02:52:16,680 --> 02:52:18,160 Speaker 2: a chance to clear that one out. 3649 02:52:18,360 --> 02:52:21,160 Speaker 3: He mishit it and it will be another Houston corner here. 3650 02:52:21,680 --> 02:52:24,160 Speaker 2: Twenty seconds to go off the added six minutes can 3651 02:52:24,280 --> 02:52:27,440 Speaker 2: Seattle close this down? Gearmea on top of it again, 3652 02:52:27,680 --> 02:52:32,120 Speaker 2: cross comes in back out to all of you, No 3653 02:52:32,360 --> 02:52:35,560 Speaker 2: need to shoo fast.

Gear May on the right side, 3655 02:52:38,600 --> 02:52:42,080 Speaker 2: crosses it in and it will slip right through to 3656 02:52:42,200 --> 02:52:45,200 Speaker 2: a Houston foot, but it's cleared out and right back 3657 02:52:45,560 --> 02:52:49,440 Speaker 2: Dinamo just on top of Seattle.

This is just a 3675 02:53:52,440 --> 02:53:57,400 Speaker 24: team that dug deep, stood very very strong, absorbed a 3676 02:53:57,560 --> 02:54:01,000 Speaker 24: ton of first off press. Sure in the end, when 3677 02:54:01,120 --> 02:54:03,600 Speaker 24: the moment called for it, Paul Rothrock, as he's done 3678 02:54:03,680 --> 02:54:06,360 Speaker 24: so often in the past eighteen months, shut up with 3679 02:54:06,440 --> 02:54:08,640 Speaker 24: a very very big moment and as sound as to leave. 3680 02:54:08,680 --> 02:54:09,360 Speaker 17: There were three points. 3681 02:54:09,440 --> 02:54:11,640 Speaker 2: Steve, this is interesting what we're watching right now because 3682 02:54:11,800 --> 02:54:16,080 Speaker 2: there were some confused faces over what referee is mel 3683 02:54:16,200 --> 02:54:18,199 Speaker 2: l Fat was doing and right now he is talking 3684 02:54:18,280 --> 02:54:21,039 Speaker 2: in the middle of the field with their head coach 3685 02:54:21,320 --> 02:54:24,640 Speaker 2: Benny Olsen, and the Houston players kind of were all 3686 02:54:24,760 --> 02:54:28,040 Speaker 2: standing in the box. They were almost as if they're saying, no, 3687 02:54:28,320 --> 02:54:31,760 Speaker 2: you need to review that for a penalty, but nothing's 3688 02:54:31,800 --> 02:54:34,600 Speaker 2: being given. This game is over, ye and there are 3689 02:54:34,800 --> 02:54:37,080 Speaker 2: not happy Dynamo people on the field right now. 3690 02:54:38,080 --> 02:54:40,280 Speaker 24: Yeah, I think he called the game over and then 3691 02:54:40,360 --> 02:54:43,000 Speaker 24: realized there was a potential infraction. But by that point 3692 02:54:43,320 --> 02:54:45,720 Speaker 24: he called the game off and then the Dynamo players 3693 02:54:45,720 --> 02:54:47,560 Speaker 24: surrounded him. Me, so maybe I should have waited. But 3694 02:54:48,120 --> 02:54:50,600 Speaker 24: listen that final whistle, Blue Schmesser went over there, so 3695 02:54:50,680 --> 02:54:52,640 Speaker 24: I shaking hands with the coach himself just to confirm it, 3696 02:54:52,760 --> 02:54:54,560 Speaker 24: and the game was over.
