It's a 13 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 3: long road to get there, but it starts with this 14 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 3: first round best of three series Game one tonight against 15 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 3: Minnesota United. Welcome to the Sounders FC pre match show, 16 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 3: presented by Providence Swedish official healthcare partner of Seattle Sounders FC. 17 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 3: Jackson Felts alongside the former Sounder player Chance for I 18 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,400 Speaker 3: we have Pete Hewing Danny Jackson waiting to call Sounders 19 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 3: Minnesota here as the playoffs begin tonight. 20 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 4: Chance. 21 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 3: It is playoff time and there is a magic in 22 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 3: the year when it comes to this time of the year. 23 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:16,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's super great when we get to playoff time 24 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 5: and we always know that the Sounders is going to 25 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,399 Speaker 5: be there except for one time, and we trust in 26 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,680 Speaker 5: Schmidtz and his staff to have the team ready. 27 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,120 Speaker 3: I always say that this team, pretty much whenever they 28 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 3: are healthy, make a run towards MLS Cup. We've seen 29 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 3: it over and over and that year in twenty two 30 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 3: we're obviously missing our MVP can at jul Paolo. Twenty eighteen, 31 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 3: we don't make MLS Cup because Chad Marshall and Christian 32 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 3: Roldan get hurt in that Portland series, and pretty much 33 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 3: every other year where they're healthy, they're in a West Final. 34 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 3: So hopefully we can get over the loss of Pedro 35 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 3: de la Vega. We'll get into that in a moment 36 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 3: and we can make it back to another West Final. 37 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 3: This year it'd be Minnesota here in this round, potentially 38 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 3: San Diego in the second round, and then we'll see 39 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 3: about maybe a Vancouver LAFC in a West Final. But 40 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 3: it's a long long road ahead. This is just Round one, 41 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,400 Speaker 3: Game one tonight against Minnesota. We are short on time chance, 42 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 3: so Let's quickly get to the starting lineup for head 43 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 3: coach Brian Schmitzer. It is Stephen Fryan goal, Alex schroledon 44 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 3: and new. Who are your fullbacks on the right and left? 45 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 3: Jamar is back He is starting next to Jackson Reagan 46 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 3: at the center back spot. Your holding midfielder duo is 47 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 3: back together. Finally, o beed Vargas Christian rolled on together again. 48 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 3: The attacking threesome in the midfield is Heyes, Who's Frere 49 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 3: on the left, Paul Rothrock on the sorry Hayeses Frere 50 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 3: on the right, Paul Rothrock on the left, Albert Rusnak 51 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 3: in between them, with Jordan Morris up top chance. We 52 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 3: know Minnesota has a tremendous defense. What do you think 53 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 3: about the attacking unit that's going to be going against 54 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 3: them tonight? 55 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 5: Well, I believe that we are going to take them tonight. 56 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 5: I know that they've they've taken us two games this year, 57 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,920 Speaker 5: but we've got I was looking at some stats. We 58 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 5: have ten goals by nine players in the last seven games. 59 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 5: I would really like to see Jordan get on the 60 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 5: score sheet. A couple of goals tonight would be tremendous, 61 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 5: And I think we're going to take them in Minnesota. 62 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 3: No, that's a great stat. Ten games, nine goals, seven players. 63 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 3: So I have that right and I am or no, sorry, 64 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 3: I have that completely wrong. Go ahead and go ahead 65 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 3: and give that one more time because I have a 66 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 3: question on it. 67 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 5: The last seven games, ten goals by nine different players, 68 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 5: and I think that that's great to have well rounded scoring. Yeah, 69 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,239 Speaker 5: but I do believe in playoffs you need to have 70 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 5: somebody who's hot scoring goals, and you need to have 71 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 5: somebody who's hot stopping goals. In the As a goalkeeper, well, 72 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 5: Stephen Fry is doing great right now in goal. 73 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 3: It's great to have Jamar back. Defensively, I'm not overly 74 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 3: concerned about that side of the ball. But yeah, that 75 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 3: would be the question of do you need a superstar 76 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 3: because you are missing Pedro dal le Vega. Well, you know, 77 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 3: really quick, we'll dive into the Providence. Swedish team health reports. 78 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: Ryan Kent still coming back from his major hamstring injury. 79 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 3: He's close, not making today, but there's an expectation he 80 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 3: we'll be back for Game two. Kim Ki he's still 81 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: out with a calf strain. A few more weeks for him, 82 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 3: and then Pedro de la Vega, the big, extremely sad news. 83 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 3: He played in that decision day match at New York 84 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 3: City and he fractured his patella. That is a broken kneecap, folks. 85 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 3: The injury will keep him out for six months after 86 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 3: he had surgery last week. So my thought their chance 87 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 3: is missing a star and a creative force like de 88 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 3: la Vega. Do we have that guy on the offensive unit, 89 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 3: that star, that guy who can take over a game 90 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 3: and make it very difficult for Minnesota's back line. 91 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 5: The thing about the Sounders is that they have this 92 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 5: mentality of next man up. Okay, if Pedro is not 93 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 5: going to be there, somebody else is going to come 94 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 5: in and play. 95 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 6: All right, we have Paul Rothrock. 96 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 5: Now, all the players are different, nobody's exactly like Pedro, 97 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 5: but we have done a good job of winning with 98 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 5: all different types of lineups. That's the one thing that 99 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 5: I've talked about many times on this show is that 100 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 5: we Schmetz does a great job with who he he 101 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 5: has available. He puts together a team that's going to 102 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 5: be competitive, and these guys are going to do great tonight. 103 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you a little XO question here because 104 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 3: as I look at Minnesota, it's a team who seeds possession. 105 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 3: They say, you take the ball, you make the mistake, 106 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 3: we'll capitalize on the other end. And if they're gonna 107 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 3: give us possession, I look at Christian rold On and 108 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 3: Obd Vargas in that holding midfield, and I wonder how 109 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 3: they're going to behave If Seattle is so heavily in possession, 110 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 3: doesn't mean Christian Roldon creeps up a little bit further. 111 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 6: Oh well, you never know. 112 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 5: If we keep the ball and they get frustrated and 113 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 5: they start to come out, that'll just open up space 114 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 5: for Jordan to ren in behind. 115 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 3: Okay, so we're hoping that that would happen on that end, 116 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 3: but we'll see exactly this chess match between Brian Schmitzer 117 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,159 Speaker 3: and Minnesota's head coach Eric Gramsey, who I can't say 118 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 3: enough is my age. He's fricking thirty three years old. 119 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 3: It's insane, and he right now is leading the fourth 120 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 3: seed in the Western Conference, Minnesota, and he a tremendous 121 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 3: soccer team out there in the Loons. Well, let's take 122 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 3: a break and let's talk about him, because they deserve 123 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 3: some time to get talked about this is this first round, 124 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 3: best of three series, so we could see them three 125 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 3: times in the next three weeks. It's this game is 126 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 3: Game one.

It's 196 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 3: round one, Game one of the playoffs for your Sounders 197 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 3: facing Minnesota United. Let's spend a few minutes talking about 198 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 3: this Minnesota team. They are sixteen eight and ten compared 199 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 3: to Seattle's fifteen nine and ten, so not divided by 200 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 3: very much, just those three points. Sounders actually have more 201 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 3: goals scored on the year, fifty eight to fifty six, 202 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 3: but it's the defensive side, as I mentioned, where the 203 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 3: Loons are one of the best teams in this league. 204 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 3: Thirty nine goals conceded that second lowest in the West, 205 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,479 Speaker 3: third lowest in the entire league. Plus seventeen goal differential 206 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 3: is seven more than us. Now, we were just mentioning 207 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 3: off the air chance that playoffs are different when we 208 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 3: talk about the idea of tournament style soccer in playoffs. 209 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 3: Minnesota didn't even make it out of the first round 210 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 3: of League's Cup. They don't have a great history when 211 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 3: it comes to the playoffs. Seattle, of course, won the 212 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 3: entire tournament in League's Cup. We have great playoff history. 213 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 3: That's where I think a massive advantage that all of 214 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 3: these stats and all of these goals scored and all 215 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 3: this and that can't quantify it is the element of 216 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 3: playoff soccer. 217 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 5: Yeah, we definitely have the advantage on and off the 218 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 5: field in my opinion, and we can analyze the crap 219 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 5: out of everything, but at the end of the day, 220 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 5: it comes down to executing in the moment and executing 221 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,319 Speaker 5: in the moment when the pressure's on. And no offense 222 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 5: to Minnesota. I think they're a great team, and they've 223 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 5: had a great season and they've done well. But I 224 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 5: believe that we are going to pick it up and 225 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 5: today I've just made the statement earlier before we're gonna 226 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 5: go two games. 227 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 6: We're gonna win tonight and at home. 228 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 3: I mean, that's it's a bold statement for sure, considering Minnesota. 229 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 3: I mean this we mentioned Eric Ramsey again, thirty three 230 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,280 Speaker 3: years old, he's kind of a wonder kid of Wonder 231 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 3: kind of MLS. His style we've talked about so defensive. 232 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,599 Speaker 3: He basically tells opponents, you take the ball, we're just 233 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 3: going to sit back, capitalize on your mistakes, go the 234 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 3: other way and either get you on the counter, or 235 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 3: we're gonna get you on set pieces. As they've been 236 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 3: scoring on set pieces at a historic rate, just frustrating teams. 237 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,599 Speaker 3: The game that Seattle played in Minnesota a couple of 238 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 3: months ago was exactly that. They basically said the Sounders, 239 00:11:48,679 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 3: you can have seventy percent of the ball. We're going 240 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 3: to sit back. We don't care how much our fans 241 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,000 Speaker 3: don't like it on social media. We are going to 242 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 3: let you have it, and then we're going to take 243 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,600 Speaker 3: advantage of the set piece, which they did with Pereira 244 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 3: in the seventy third minute that led to a one 245 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 3: to nothing win for Minnesota. But again, it is playoff 246 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 3: soccer and it's very, very different, so we'll have to 247 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 3: see important to note there is a lot of different 248 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 3: people who can score, but one of them is no 249 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 3: longer with Minnesota, tany Olawashee, who had ten goals and 250 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 3: eight assists. He had you know, basically, you know, almost 251 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 3: a fifth of their goals overall on the year. He 252 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,199 Speaker 3: was transferred to La Ligas villar Real for a club 253 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 3: record transfer fee just a couple months ago, so he's gone. 254 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 3: But they still have Pereira with six goals and eleven 255 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 3: assist They still have Kelvin Yobo with nine goals, Robin 256 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 3: lud with five goals six assists, lots of defenders who 257 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 3: can put a ball in the back of the net 258 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 3: or on those set pieces, hold up a ball and 259 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 3: drop it off. I mean that element of set pieces 260 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,319 Speaker 3: going into a box or just crosses going into a box, 261 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 3: bringing it down and then setting up another player. That's 262 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 3: something Minnesota does really well, but chances we transition to 263 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 3: players to watch. That's something Seattle can do as well. 264 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 6: Yeah. No, we definitely have done that better as late. 265 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 5: And I'm very excited to see when we've got set 266 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 5: pieces and I'm looking at our starting lineup. I don't 267 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 5: believe there's hardly any teams in MLS that have as 268 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 5: strong as starting lineup as we have. 269 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 6: And then you look at the bench. 270 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 5: You've got guys like Danny Mussovski, Derisario Georgie. 271 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 6: You can come off the bench and get goals. So 272 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 6: we've got a lot of firepower. 273 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 3: In that firepower. Who's your player to watch? 274 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 6: My player to watch is my boy Jordan Morris. 275 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 5: I was talking with him, we were texting a little bit, 276 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 5: and I told him, I'm you're gonna be my man 277 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,320 Speaker 5: to watch, so you get me a couple of goals, 278 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:30,079 Speaker 5: and he said he would. 279 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 3: I mentioned there about you know, being good in those crosses, 280 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 3: and we've seen him over the last few years or 281 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 3: so be better in the year where you know, give 282 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 3: me kind of the execution for how Jordan can be 283 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 3: good in that part of the game. If the Sounders 284 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,839 Speaker 3: do get stifled with their defense and have to just 285 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:48,439 Speaker 3: kind of figure out ways to get balls in the box. 286 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think that we need to maybe shake things 287 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 5: up a little bit. So if we're keeping possession and 288 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 5: they're keeping in their shape, dumps a few balls in. 289 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:58,599 Speaker 5: Just dump them in and maybe Jordan can knot it 290 00:13:58,640 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 5: down to somebody else or flick it on. 291 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 6: Just change it up a little bit. 292 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 5: But you know, Jordan, I think is coming into his 293 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 5: fitness a little bit better the last few weeks, and 294 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 5: I think that he's going to be really fired up 295 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 5: for this game. Jordan has been in the past a 296 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 5: great playoff player for US, and I think tonight's gonna 297 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 5: do it again. 298 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 2: I love it. 299 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 3: I'm going Christian rolled on because as I look and 300 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 3: I kind of alluded to it in the previous segment. 301 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 3: If Minnesota, as you say, stays in their shape and 302 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 3: we kind of just are passing it around the edge 303 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 3: of the final third and wondering where the seams to 304 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 3: find a hole, I need some Christian creativity. I need 305 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 3: the guy from the US national team who's may have 306 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 3: just locked up a spot in the World Cup next year. 307 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 3: I need him to take command. I needed him to 308 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 3: be the leader on the in that side of the field, 309 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 3: and I need to step up and figure out ways 310 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 3: to be creative and get that ball into the box. 311 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 3: And maybe it is lobbing in there, but I think 312 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 3: there might be times where Christian Roldan needs to take 313 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 3: charge as a leader in this game. We'll take a 314 00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 3: break here, we'll come back and here a few minutes 315 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 3: from chances player to watch Jordan Morris. That'll come up next. 316 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 3: As we are just about fifteen minutes away from kickoff.

Before we get to Pete for his initial thoughts, 581 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 19: let's get you the delta, starting eleven for your Sounders 582 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 19: and for Brian Schmetzer, most likely his strongest lineup going 583 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 19: into the playoffs this year. Seven Fryan gol a back 584 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 19: four of Alex rolled on Jamar back in the lineup 585 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 19: after picking up an injury just a couple of weeks ago. 586 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,400 Speaker 19: Jackson Reagan after he goal winning gold last week against 587 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 19: New York from the corner kick He'll pay in the 588 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 19: middle and then knew who on that left hand side. 589 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 19: Christian rolled on back alongside ober Vargas middle of the 590 00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 19: park after both of them took a week off last 591 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:59,320 Speaker 19: week after international duty. Hayesus Ferrera on the right of 592 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 19: the three, but Rosnak in the ten. Paul Rothrock on 593 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 19: the left hand side for the injured Della Vega, who 594 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 19: of course went off sadly last week, joined the first 595 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 19: half with a fractured kneecap and then Jordan Morris getting 596 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 19: back on the scoreesheet last week. He will play up 597 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:17,960 Speaker 19: front four Minnesota and the home team dancing player and goal. 598 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 19: And the question is what's the formation that Minnesota will 599 00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 19: put out. They're tested out four four to two in 600 00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 19: the last couple of weeks, typically a five four one, 601 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 19: and we'll start with that middle three, which we believe 602 00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 19: they will go back to what they know. Well, it's 603 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 19: Diaz Boxel and Romero long one A most likely plays 604 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 19: on the right, Mark Nick plays on that left hand side, 605 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 19: Triantis Trap and Rosales will play in the midfield, and 606 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 19: then lud and then Perea, who has stepped in big time. 607 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 19: That will have past a couple of weeks with both 608 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 19: Yoboa being out injured and also Olawa Say leaving in 609 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 19: the summer for Villarreal for close to nine million dollars. 610 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 19: So Pete viewing as the teams get ready to go, 611 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 19: how does this line up now for the same and 612 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 19: Brian schmittza in the first round of the playoffs, how 613 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 19: did he get a win? 614 00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,040 Speaker 30: I love it, you know, with the exception of Pedro 615 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,239 Speaker 30: de la Vega being out, this is I'd say if 616 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 30: Brian Schmitzer was total at the beginning of the year, 617 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 30: this is the lineup you're going to have your last 618 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 30: six games. You'll be three to two to one coming in. 619 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 30: I think he would be happy with this lineup. I 620 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,400 Speaker 30: think he'd be happy with the form. I think he'd 621 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 30: be happy with the nine days off. I think Seattle 622 00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,360 Speaker 30: desperately wanted to have a home field advantage on this. 623 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 30: I think they come out guns of blazing for this one, 624 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 30: try to win this one, see what happens on the 625 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 30: second one. 626 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,719 Speaker 29: And try to wrap it up for a third one 627 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 29: if necessary. 628 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:37,440 Speaker 30: But I think Brian's happy. Jordan Morris, as you just said, 629 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:40,040 Speaker 30: got a goal in the last game. Jackson Reagan got 630 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 30: a goal in the last game. Those are important guys 631 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 30: to get on the score sheet and contribute in the postseason. 632 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 19: So Pete playing away from home in this first of 633 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 19: three games sounds have been there obviously last year with 634 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 19: Houston as well, Grand out of zero zero one on 635 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,320 Speaker 19: PKS then a one to one PKS and they got 636 00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 19: that win through this new format. So what's the mentality 637 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 19: of away team going into a place like minnesot to 638 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 19: manage to keep it tight, grind out that win, maybe 639 00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 19: push to PKS. But for the Sound is they have 640 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 19: got a good record away from. 641 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 30: Home, absolutely, and I don't think they've ever been a 642 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,320 Speaker 30: let's get the PKS type of team. And frankly, I 643 00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:17,680 Speaker 30: don't think Stephan Fry wants to go to PKS. I 644 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 30: think he wants to wrap it up during the game. 645 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,920 Speaker 30: Seattle's never been a park the Bus team with Brian 646 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 30: Schweitzer or Ziggi Schmid for that matter. 647 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 29: So I think they come out. 648 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 30: Trying to get the win in regulation and not rely 649 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 30: on penalty kicks. And you know, I think it's interesting 650 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 30: because you just mentioned that they're gonna they've got a 651 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 30: trophy in the cabinet already. They want another one. They 652 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 30: don't want to have a Champions League Cup and then 653 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 30: have a tough season. 654 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 29: They want to get two trophies out of this year 655 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 29: and know they can do it. 656 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 30: They've got a veteran staff that knows, a veteran team 657 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 30: that knows they can do it. 658 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 19: Hey, the Sound is now tacking through to the field 659 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 19: with Russnet whips it out to this right hand site 660 00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 19: to Ferrara takes a cutback with pressurea mark and it 661 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 19: plays it into Obed Vargas now down towards the end 662 00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:00,360 Speaker 19: line for Ferrara, He's gonna clip it in towards the 663 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 19: near post, bounces around and eventually cleared by Minnesota. Picked 664 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 19: up by Yama. Good to see him back in the 665 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 19: lineup alongside Jackson Reagan and eleven men behind the ball 666 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,479 Speaker 19: for Minnesota. We'll call that a lot tonight. But here 667 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:14,720 Speaker 19: comes fair in behind. It goes to Jordan Morris towards 668 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 19: and I strikes it. It's a one handed saved by 669 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 19: Dane Sinclair, and it's gonna be a first corner cake 670 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 19: for the Sounders inside the first minute here in Saint 671 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 19: Paul Pete hewing. 672 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 29: What a great entry ball from Jackson Reagan. 673 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 30: Bran Schmetzer said at the beginning of the year, he's 674 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 30: one of the best passers out of the back, and 675 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 30: I've watched. 676 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 29: It closer and closer. That was a terrific ball. 677 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 30: And then Ovid Vargin receives it, plays another terrific ball 678 00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 30: to Jordan Morris making a great run. 679 00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 29: Good start for Seattle. 680 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 19: Good start by the Sounders. Indeed, playing on the front 681 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 19: foot here Rusnak on the right hand side, arm up 682 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 19: in the air corner kick outswinger his right foot, nice 683 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 19: and flat ball bounces around the eighteen yard box, eventually 684 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 19: poke clear by Minnesota and lut and it's gonna be 685 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 19: rolled on on this near sign. He's gonna knock it 686 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 19: all the way back to Sefron and Fry for his 687 00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 19: first touch. Sounders in there anniversary kit this evening, green shirts, 688 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 19: blue shorts, and white Sox Minnesota in their all black 689 00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 19: kit with slashes of white and blue here and there. 690 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 19: Of course, Minnesota rich heritage of football in these areas. 691 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 19: I think it was noted this week that one of 692 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 19: the first games organized football games here was in the 693 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 19: late nineteenth century close one hundred and fifty years ago, 694 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:31,719 Speaker 19: Minnesota Thunder of course, where assistant head coach Freddy Warez played. 695 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 19: Played against Freddy for number of years when he was 696 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 19: in Minnesota, and I was with the Sounders so Nesota 697 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 19: Thunder one. They're only championship in the old USL A 698 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 19: league years back in nineteen ninety nine. Best finished as 699 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:49,760 Speaker 19: an MLS franchise this year, sitting in fourth position, Sounders 700 00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 19: in their fifth position as they build out the back 701 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 19: with Obed plays it outside to this near sight to 702 00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 19: Alex Roldan who's played extreme well this year. Paulin, he comes, 703 00:34:00,600 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 19: Morris dancincled just about guests. He hesitated for a split 704 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,520 Speaker 19: second wait for the bounce and it skipped through to 705 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:07,920 Speaker 19: the big Canadian International. 706 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 29: What a terrific ball. 707 00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 30: Another great entry pass, this one about forty five yards, 708 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 30: Alex Roldon finding his buddy Jordan Morris on a good run. 709 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 30: Little bender again, good start for Seattle. They've got to 710 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 30: capitalize on one of these though Jordan always had a 711 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 30: couple of good chances. 712 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:26,360 Speaker 29: We'll always just off by a little. 713 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 19: Yeah, We'll see Pete. You know they are going to 714 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:33,880 Speaker 19: get flip and flop. In terms of formation, Ramsey, head coach, 715 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 19: has played with this lineup with Olawa Shane your Boa missing. 716 00:34:38,080 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 19: They usually the players that could spring from a counter attack. 717 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 19: They play so deep. They are sitting in a flat 718 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,480 Speaker 19: five right now, as they have done in really for 719 00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 19: the last eighteen months or so. Into Eric Ramsey. They 720 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,799 Speaker 19: don't care about having the ball. We thought LAFC would 721 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 19: that for the last few years, but no team has 722 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,319 Speaker 19: played with the ball less than Minnesota have this year 723 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 19: about four possession in games. But they've been incredibly successful 724 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 19: playing that way. Eight wins at home, but eight wins 725 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 19: away from home as well, so the manner in which 726 00:35:09,320 --> 00:35:11,960 Speaker 19: they play is certainly more like an away team. But 727 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 19: here comes the sound. It's down the left hand side 728 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,439 Speaker 19: with Rothrock gets a little poke away from Daz goes 729 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:20,160 Speaker 19: to ground. It's well played by Rothrock, exactly what you'd 730 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 19: hope for the sound as left winger. He knicks a ballpass, 731 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,920 Speaker 19: Daz goes down, wins a free kick in a dangerous area. 732 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,919 Speaker 30: Yeah, a good run from Paul Rothrock. Again, another forward 733 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,399 Speaker 30: ball bending down the line, this time on the left 734 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 30: hand side. You know, it's funny about the possession thing. 735 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 30: You wonder if coach Ramsey walks in the locker room says, Okay, 736 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 30: here's what we're gonna do it. We're gonna let them 737 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 30: have the ball. How does that go over with players 738 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 30: who want to play? You know, But it works, and 739 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 30: if it works, then you don't argue and maybe you 740 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:51,279 Speaker 30: get comfortable. Maybe you say, Okay, we're gonna we're gonna 741 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:52,960 Speaker 30: be a great counter attack team if you buy in. 742 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 19: I think it depends on results, and the results have 743 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,839 Speaker 19: stood for them so far this season. But here they 744 00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,839 Speaker 19: are defending. Now this free kick Rusnack on the left 745 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:03,160 Speaker 19: hand Sounders attacking the goal two hour right. It's going 746 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 19: to be an inswering about ten yards from the endline, 747 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,480 Speaker 19: just a couple of yards in from the far touch line. 748 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 8: One. 749 00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 19: I'm up in the airby Ruzzneck, rolled on holding top 750 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 19: of the box. Ball gets whipped in his headed just 751 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 19: over by. I think it was Yamer on that front 752 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 19: sake he got up, he just clipped it towards the 753 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 19: back post a little bit too high. Goal kick remains 754 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 19: Neil Neil. 755 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 29: I love to see that. 756 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:28,439 Speaker 30: Last week it's Jackson Reagan, today it's gomas Androtti. They're 757 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 30: dangerous and there's a mismatch with Reagan size wise. I 758 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:36,800 Speaker 30: think he's got trap is on him and it's a mismatch. 759 00:36:36,840 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 29: So we got to keep looking for those center backs on. 760 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 19: Free kicks they come. Minnesota building out the back. Sound 761 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:44,920 Speaker 19: has putting some high press on now, not letting him 762 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 19: get comfortable there. As Perero, who's stepped in over the 763 00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 19: last six weeks or so with Yobora being out, it's 764 00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:56,640 Speaker 19: kept up the goals from his attacking midfield position. He 765 00:36:56,680 --> 00:36:58,800 Speaker 19: has the ball now top of his own eighteen yard box, 766 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 19: not quite where Ramsey wants to be further up the field. 767 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 19: As they build on this near side with trap back 768 00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:08,239 Speaker 19: to Romero that strong left foot as he sits on 769 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 19: the ball, a little bit of pressure from Ferrara just 770 00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:16,040 Speaker 19: clips it down into stalwart lud as the ball goes inside. 771 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 19: Good play by minnesot as they continue to build in possession, 772 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 19: but there's rolled on gets pulled out around the neck 773 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:27,399 Speaker 19: by Triantis, the new signing, the Australian player. We'll see 774 00:37:27,400 --> 00:37:29,480 Speaker 19: if that's some more than a word from the referee. 775 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,799 Speaker 19: He has a little word. No yellow cards so far, 776 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 19: but cynecol little greb has rolledan, nipped in, won the ball. 777 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:39,360 Speaker 19: It's gonna be a freak it for the Sounders. 778 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 29: I'll tell you what. 779 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:44,319 Speaker 30: Christian roll He is on the carpet more than any 780 00:37:44,360 --> 00:37:48,919 Speaker 30: of our Seattle Sounders, probably since Ladero left the team. 781 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:50,840 Speaker 30: But he mixes it up in the middle of the 782 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,560 Speaker 30: park all the time. Such a nuisance and so difficult 783 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 30: to knock off the ball well. 784 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 19: Trianti is one of the newest signings for Minnesota against 785 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 19: one of the most experienced players on the field, and 786 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 19: Christian rolledan. Of course. He talked about it last week 787 00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:11,399 Speaker 19: in detail about his entry into the mem US men's 788 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 19: national team scene. Playing great performances against Australia in this 789 00:38:16,040 --> 00:38:19,560 Speaker 19: last camp Ecuador before that, has put himself in a 790 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 19: really good position to be in contention part of that 791 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 19: squad for the twenty twenty six World Cup. As Christian 792 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,400 Speaker 19: rolled on, and wouldn't that be a fairy tale story 793 00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,239 Speaker 19: to play in Seattle inner group game for the US 794 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,359 Speaker 19: men's national team at a club in a stadium where 795 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 19: he's played well over three hundred games. Now he Jordan 796 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 19: Morris Stephen Frying the top ten of active players with 797 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:43,879 Speaker 19: games played in playoff football in MLS, Jordan Morris being 798 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 19: the number one active player in terms of goals. So 799 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 19: good to have Jordan back in the lineup and back 800 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 19: on the score sheet last week as he wriggles free 801 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 19: center of the park, obed has it keeps possession. Yema 802 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 19: on this near side rolled on pushing high and wide 803 00:38:59,800 --> 00:39:02,359 Speaker 19: on the near side the right, and it's Christian rolled 804 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:04,240 Speaker 19: on from center to the far side the left cushion 805 00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 19: headed buy roll down as Jemar gets so he knew 806 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 19: who gets involved on that left hand side pressure in 807 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 19: eleven men behind the ball as you mentioned they'll do that, 808 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 19: but a little bit loose on the pass by Christian 809 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 19: as the ball goes out of bounds on a far 810 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 19: side throwing for Minnesota. 811 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 30: I like that Jordan Morris coming back into the midfield 812 00:39:23,960 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 30: and then Rusnak taking his spot. Just that little bit 813 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,520 Speaker 30: of interchange confusing the defense a little bit. 814 00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 29: But I like to see Jordan coming back to get 815 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 29: the ball. 816 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:38,839 Speaker 19: It comes Minnesota. Now the ball's in behind, He's gonna 817 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,520 Speaker 19: have a chance. He scuffs his shun just enough by 818 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:45,280 Speaker 19: Jackson Reagan to come in behind. Long warning, wonderful chance 819 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 19: on the break, he had the gold gaping and he did. 820 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,440 Speaker 19: He pulled it wide and Pete fewing that is the 821 00:39:53,600 --> 00:39:56,320 Speaker 19: chance for Minnesota to get on the board. They broke 822 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 19: through in the center of the park. Sounders were in 823 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 19: sixes and sevens for a second. Long one d about 824 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 19: forty yards to drive forward, almost too much time to 825 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,879 Speaker 19: think about it. Little push by Jackson Reagan. Let's hope 826 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:12,480 Speaker 19: the referee doesn't pull that one back. That could be 827 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 19: a var and I'm just gonna guess that it could be. 828 00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 29: Yeah, it's pretty hard to uh. 829 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:19,600 Speaker 19: And nothing given by the referee so far. The ball 830 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 19: went out of bound, so he must have got nothing 831 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,239 Speaker 19: on it. Not enough by Jackson Reagan. It was a 832 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:27,240 Speaker 19: felt like it was a push. The crowd are letting 833 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 19: the referee know all about it. 834 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 29: Certainly an extended arm right from Jackson Reagan. 835 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 30: You know, that's where he has learned so much since 836 00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 30: his first years, how to use his body to disrupt 837 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,359 Speaker 30: a forward when they're shooting. But that one, I'm glad 838 00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:42,759 Speaker 30: that they're not going to var. 839 00:40:42,600 --> 00:40:45,319 Speaker 19: We'll just keep hoping here that the referee doesn't pull 840 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 19: it back if he's got something already from VR to 841 00:40:48,280 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 19: cancel out that. Jordan Morris has a little push on 842 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 19: Jordan Morris on Boxler. Now they're going to have another go. 843 00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,280 Speaker 19: They're going to ask the referee to take a look. 844 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:00,960 Speaker 19: As Dane Sinclair comes out. The referee is being surrounded 845 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,279 Speaker 19: by Minnesota players. It's gonna be a yellow car for 846 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,640 Speaker 19: Dane Sinclair. That's not what you want from the goalkeeper. 847 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:08,759 Speaker 19: We'll push on the referee, but it's at all a 848 00:41:08,760 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 19: lot of the referees doing. 849 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 29: I think Pete Fioy, no, it doesn't. He's been a 850 00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 29: little bit on our side so far. 851 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:15,399 Speaker 30: Some of the tackles in the middle of the park 852 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 30: have gone our way, that one with Jackson Reagan and 853 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,920 Speaker 30: then this one. I think the Jordan Morris call was 854 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 30: a bit soft just now, but I think it might 855 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,799 Speaker 30: have been a bit of a makeup. So good to 856 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 30: see Saint Clair get that yellow card. 857 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 19: Eleventh minute here in Saint Paul nil nil, first round 858 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 19: of the playoffs. Sports Radio nine fifty am tonight. Wherever 859 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 19: you're joining us, driving home from work, at home synced 860 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 19: up with Apple, maybe you're taking one of the kiss 861 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,400 Speaker 19: of some sporting event in and around the Puget Sound 862 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,799 Speaker 19: area or the wider Washington state area. Thanks for joining us. 863 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:48,359 Speaker 19: Sounders have earned the right to be here. Sixteenth year 864 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 19: out of seventeen seasons they have made the playoffs, And 865 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 19: now it sounds just taking a little breath. I think 866 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 19: it was hot in mouth moment for a split second 867 00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 19: as long when we went through missed this chain just 868 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:06,799 Speaker 19: a few minutes ago, preserving the nil nil tires Rosales. 869 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 19: Oh Diaz right there is gonna have a little go 870 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,600 Speaker 19: at the referee again. It feels like in the Minnesota 871 00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:18,280 Speaker 19: rize that the cars going against him. 872 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:21,640 Speaker 30: I would agree, honestly that there's been on our side. 873 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:24,520 Speaker 30: If it's been close it's gone to Seattle's favor well. 874 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 19: Sounders FC. Socket is presented by Provident, Swedish official healthcare 875 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 19: partner of Sounders FC, and it's as Sounders who have 876 00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 19: the ball far side the left with Nuho to Jackson Reagan, 877 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 19: as you mentioned, scored the game winner last week against 878 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 19: New York City for the last game of the season 879 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 19: on decision Day. Just what Yn Schwetz would have wanted. 880 00:42:47,520 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 19: I think the demand now for Jackson Reagan is he 881 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,439 Speaker 19: needs to play at that level week in week out. 882 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 19: Is that a really good season in terms of goals 883 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,840 Speaker 19: from corner kicks? Just the second goal of the season 884 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 19: for Jackson and the way he man handled the back 885 00:43:03,080 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 19: line of New York for that goal shows what he 886 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 19: can do with that big six foot five frame. The 887 00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:11,000 Speaker 19: ball just goes out of bounds on the far side, 888 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:12,799 Speaker 19: referee calls it back. It's gonna be a thrown from 889 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:17,320 Speaker 19: Minnesota on that far side. You mentioned Ramsey, one of 890 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 19: the youngest coaches in MLS, came from the Manchester United 891 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 19: system as an assistant coach. So ball tries to get 892 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:27,839 Speaker 19: played in by Perera, drop back by Sounders. Here comes 893 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 19: Rosnick plays it outside to Farrara tries to whit the 894 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 19: ball across the Rothrock ball bounces around from Ramira just 895 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 19: cushions away. Jordan Morris let's the ball bounce through to 896 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:45,400 Speaker 19: his goalkeeper and so to have the ball with Dane 897 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 19: Saint Clair, who's up for goalkeeper of the Year and 898 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 19: one of the favorites for sure. 899 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 30: He's been great coming out of Maryland. Is he was 900 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:01,200 Speaker 30: young when he came out, really just gotten better and better. 901 00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 29: It's kinda like Stephan Fry. 902 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 30: He's found his home and he has been a great 903 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 30: leader for him as well. So fun to see that 904 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 30: last chance that Minnesota has had. That's gonna be a 905 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 30: lesson that see how learns right away that's how they 906 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,200 Speaker 30: are going to attack. 907 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,120 Speaker 19: Good play by Resident, just let the ball go, saw 908 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:20,280 Speaker 19: the vision out to new who. Now he goes to Rothrock. 909 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,040 Speaker 19: He has some time and space far side, the left 910 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 19: cuts in to his preferred and stronger right foot and 911 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,919 Speaker 19: now it's rolled on, rolls it back out to new Who. 912 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,840 Speaker 19: They'll run by Rothrock whipped in by New who deflected 913 00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 19: off Rosales on a far side. It's going to be 914 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,360 Speaker 19: a thrown for the Sounders, and the Sounders are not 915 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:38,839 Speaker 19: quite as potent as Minnesota from throw ins. They lead 916 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 19: MLSC in goals from throwings. Typically is Captain Boxel, the 917 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 19: New Zealander that comes across and throws the ball in 918 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 19: about ninety yards from the sideline. At least it feels 919 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:50,640 Speaker 19: that way. Is It drops right into the middle of 920 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 19: the six yard box at times. But here's the sounder's version. 921 00:44:54,960 --> 00:44:57,040 Speaker 19: Paul Rothrock has the ball in his hands about eight 922 00:44:57,120 --> 00:44:59,760 Speaker 19: yards from the corner flag far side. The sound has left. 923 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 19: It's going to be a long throw from Paul Rothrock. 924 00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:07,800 Speaker 19: Baul comes in, skips towards Jackson Wag and flicks forward. 925 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 19: Ball bounced around top of the eighteen yard box. Obed's 926 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,000 Speaker 19: there straight by Rusnak ask him for deflection. The referee 927 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 19: doesn't give. It's gonna be a goal kick here in 928 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,600 Speaker 19: the fifteenth minute in Saint Paul, Minnesota in this first 929 00:45:17,680 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 19: round of the playoffs as Minnesota nil, Sounders nil pe viewing. 930 00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:23,200 Speaker 30: Well, I like the beginning of the game, but we've 931 00:45:23,280 --> 00:45:24,759 Speaker 30: kind of dropped off a little bit. We've got to 932 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:28,239 Speaker 30: get our rhythm back again. I think the wings are 933 00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 30: a very effective tool, but I love the fact that 934 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 30: we've also gone straight down the middle as well, So 935 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 30: we got to get Rothrock involved. 936 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,840 Speaker 29: We've got to get Alex roll Don involved as well. 937 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 19: That's an awkward collision by Yamar and Olawa Shae Long 938 00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:46,840 Speaker 19: one Ah number twenty one, who missed that challeng just 939 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,799 Speaker 19: a few minutes ago, stood his ground. Yem I went 940 00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,800 Speaker 19: over the top, landed awkwardly. I think it's gonna be okay. 941 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 19: Maybe the wind knocked out of him. More than anything, 942 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,200 Speaker 19: I want to see him on the ground too much today. 943 00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 19: We need his strong presence. Of course, missed Amar joined 944 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:02,560 Speaker 19: Club World Cup, he would have been a real asset 945 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 19: back there. Likes of Jonathan Bell have stood in for 946 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:11,000 Speaker 19: him at times. Alex rolldand of course played center back 947 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:14,799 Speaker 19: at times as well. This season has looked down and 948 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 19: I monitor to see a quick replay, but the Sounders 949 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:19,400 Speaker 19: win the free kick, so you need to keep their cool. 950 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:22,520 Speaker 19: You mentioned the referee feels like he's a little bit 951 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 19: more in the favor of the sound is per the 952 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 19: minnesot'a crowd a night now packed houses ever here at 953 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:34,560 Speaker 19: Alliance Field of course host men's national team games women's 954 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:38,680 Speaker 19: national team games. You mentioned the home record of eight 955 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:44,680 Speaker 19: to five and four. Actually that away form is actually 956 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:46,400 Speaker 19: better with an eight, three and six. 957 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:50,680 Speaker 30: I think that goes to the lineup they're using with 958 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:52,920 Speaker 30: the five at the back that they're so comfortable with, 959 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:55,359 Speaker 30: and I think it makes it difficult for teams when 960 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 30: another team, when you have as much of the ball 961 00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,719 Speaker 30: but you don't get any success at it, you start 962 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 30: to get frustrated. 963 00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,080 Speaker 19: Well, when you play away from home, you tend to 964 00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:03,759 Speaker 19: kind of back in a little bit, play a little deeper. 965 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:06,160 Speaker 19: They do that at home and away. But the onus, 966 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:07,360 Speaker 19: of course on a home team is to play on 967 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,399 Speaker 19: the front foot and that's when opportunities to counterattack can come. 968 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 19: And as they always say, you're not there to entertain 969 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,200 Speaker 19: as an away team, you're able to get points, right, 970 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 19: and they've certainly done that very well this year of Minnesota. 971 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:24,480 Speaker 19: As Jackson or Eagan clears his lines. Safety first, I'd 972 00:47:24,520 --> 00:47:25,319 Speaker 19: say we do the same. 973 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 30: We play the same whether we're on the road or 974 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 30: at home, right, But some teams will play different home 975 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 30: and away. So we have two teams right now that 976 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 30: are used to their own system. 977 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 19: Here comes Box. As you mentioned just a few minutes ago, 978 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 19: the big New Zealander center back's got to come up. 979 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,280 Speaker 19: It's going to launch this ball into the night's sky. 980 00:47:41,440 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 19: Sound as if I've been practicing this all week, talking 981 00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:47,200 Speaker 19: to the coaching staff how to box out, how to 982 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,360 Speaker 19: frame out their players as they make their runs. But 983 00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 19: here comes boxel in. It comes towards the near corner 984 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,919 Speaker 19: of the six yard box. We'll play by the sound 985 00:47:54,960 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 19: has cleared their lines, fins boxill again. Top of the 986 00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:59,439 Speaker 19: box is a strike by Tree. Answers there's a real 987 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 19: strike just wide, narrowly wide of Stephen Fry's right hand posts. 988 00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 19: It's gonna be a goal kick. It's got to be 989 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,360 Speaker 19: nil nil. That's a chance from twenty five yards. 990 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:13,880 Speaker 30: I like this for Steph though I felt like he 991 00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:16,040 Speaker 30: had it covered. It was a really nice strike. 992 00:48:19,080 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 19: Triantis, the Australian, as we mentioned you, twenty two initiative player, 993 00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:27,520 Speaker 19: two goals to assist so far in his season coming in. 994 00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 19: It's a short time ago, so it really started his 995 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,640 Speaker 19: career in Minnesota. Well, they try and fill the void 996 00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:39,840 Speaker 19: of Oloachet who went to Villa Reale. But here comes 997 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:43,759 Speaker 19: one of their journeymen. Lud cuts the ball towards Rose Eyes, 998 00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:48,520 Speaker 19: back heel towards Perea, turn and strike it off the 999 00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:50,840 Speaker 19: goal and it goes by rolled On. It was miscommunication 1000 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 19: between I think roth Rock and Reagan. Somebody had to 1001 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:56,400 Speaker 19: step in. I think Reagan needed to take control. He didn't. 1002 00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:59,600 Speaker 19: They managed to pop around and eventually cleared off the 1003 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 19: line by rolled On. As the ball gets coaxed over 1004 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,520 Speaker 19: the end line by Obed, there's gonna be some discussions 1005 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 19: between the two ex youth team players. You see a 1006 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 19: replay here as little confusion between Rothrock and Reagan. Nobody 1007 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 19: takes control and eventually it's cleared off the line by Rolldan. 1008 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,360 Speaker 30: Good for Alex getting behind Stephan Fry make sure he 1009 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:29,240 Speaker 30: clears it off. Now that looked like it was nothing until. 1010 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,879 Speaker 29: You go, I go, that could have been a very 1011 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:30,880 Speaker 29: difficult gold again. 1012 00:49:30,719 --> 00:49:32,400 Speaker 19: And I'm sure Bruan Schmidtz will bring that up with 1013 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 19: Jackson Reagan, maybe not at halftime, but certainly the end 1014 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 19: of the game about taking control. As a center back, 1015 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:42,240 Speaker 19: balled by Markinich towards the top of the eighteen, covered 1016 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,040 Speaker 19: well by Christian Rolldan, picked up now by Rothrock on 1017 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 19: this far side the Sounders left back towards new who 1018 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 19: hooks it down. The line goes into the foot of 1019 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,759 Speaker 19: Morris Good layup by Morris. Here comes Rothrock little heavy 1020 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:55,279 Speaker 19: on the touch menaster wriggle free. Nothing given by the 1021 00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:58,680 Speaker 19: referee as Rothrock went to ground, picked up by Minnesota. 1022 00:49:58,680 --> 00:50:00,239 Speaker 19: Now this is what they do well. They pick the 1023 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:02,359 Speaker 19: ball in the central areas and they break quickly top 1024 00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:04,680 Speaker 19: of the box, wriggle free again. Here comes long One, 1025 00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 19: a little give and go with I think. 1026 00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 27: It was. 1027 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 19: Perea potentially top of the box the Triantis who made 1028 00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 19: his initial run. Here comes he Triantis again. The Australian 1029 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:18,440 Speaker 19: tries to whip it around the corner towards long one 1030 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 19: ache cleared by the sound As picked up by Lud 1031 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 19: far side Minnesota's right. They have the ball in they're 1032 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 19: attacking half for the field. Luod has it just a 1033 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:30,839 Speaker 19: yard off the far touchline, back to let it goes 1034 00:50:30,880 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 19: ten yards from the end line to Rosales, overlap and 1035 00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 19: run by Diaz. Here comes Resolves and his preferred left 1036 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,279 Speaker 19: foot strikes it. Oh just wide, trying to find that 1037 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 19: far corner.

We thought had played on 1128 00:54:53,680 --> 00:54:55,160 Speaker 19: the right.

P he 1140 00:55:29,320 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 19: sees the play. It's a good place to get the foul, 1141 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:35,880 Speaker 19: get back behind the ball and just stem that attack. 1142 00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:36,959 Speaker 29: Yeah, that is smart. 1143 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 30: That's a good heads up planets and it's not card 1144 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:43,920 Speaker 30: worthy by any means. He's got defenders that are ahead 1145 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:45,839 Speaker 30: of him in that sequence, so good for him. 1146 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 19: Bran Schmizer marshaling his troops. Now from the sideline, we've 1147 00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:54,400 Speaker 19: crept back in at a bit. 1148 00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 30: Would you agree it's been a little bit of good 1149 00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:59,040 Speaker 30: for the Seattle in the last minute bit better. 1150 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:02,680 Speaker 19: They've defended well. Yeah, sometimes like any team, the Sounders 1151 00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 19: are guilty of it as well, and the only parts 1152 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,439 Speaker 19: of the season causing their own problems at times giving 1153 00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 19: up goals. I think they were uncharacteristic, would you say 1154 00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:13,560 Speaker 19: of the Sounder's way. They led the defensive side of 1155 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:17,000 Speaker 19: the ball in MLS for the last two years, this 1156 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 19: year not so much in terms of goals against. It 1157 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 19: was thirty two in twenty twenty three, thirty five and 1158 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:27,759 Speaker 19: twenty twenty four, and in this season it's forty eight. 1159 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,799 Speaker 19: So they managed to tie in things up going into 1160 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:34,960 Speaker 19: the playoffs. Two clean sheets in two of their last 1161 00:56:35,040 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 19: three games against RSL and Portland, just a one goal 1162 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:41,520 Speaker 19: last week against New York. Just one goal between the 1163 00:56:41,640 --> 00:56:44,680 Speaker 19: teams in the last five games that the Sounders have played. 1164 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:50,000 Speaker 19: So back to their normal ways of defend well and 1165 00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:52,360 Speaker 19: get the guys who can score goals in good positions. 1166 00:56:52,400 --> 00:56:55,640 Speaker 19: And for the Sounders it almost feels like Pete that 1167 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 19: with Jordan Risk on the score sheet, Jackson Reagan scoring 1168 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:00,839 Speaker 19: from a set piece on the way, the Sounders can 1169 00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:01,359 Speaker 19: win this thing. 1170 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:04,320 Speaker 29: I would agree, and I think they all know it. 1171 00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 29: I think they all know that Steven fries at it. 1172 00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,279 Speaker 30: Earlier in the year, these chances to get into the 1173 00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:12,800 Speaker 30: postseason don't come. They do come off in for Seattle, 1174 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 30: but they know they've got a really veteran group and 1175 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:18,320 Speaker 30: that this group I might not be together, you know, 1176 00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 30: three or more years, two more years, so they want 1177 00:57:20,960 --> 00:57:22,080 Speaker 30: to take advantage of it this year. 1178 00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,280 Speaker 19: They come Minnesota. A ball in possession left hand size. Ramera, 1179 00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:30,200 Speaker 19: from his central defensive spot, finds a spot with long 1180 00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:32,360 Speaker 19: one A picks the ball up just outside the eighteen 1181 00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 19: yard box back to trap as he clips the ball 1182 00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 19: towards Romero, ten yards from the endline left hand side, 1183 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,440 Speaker 19: whips it towards the fast sick it's gonna skip just 1184 00:57:39,600 --> 00:57:42,480 Speaker 19: about through and Zalez just about keeps it on the 1185 00:57:42,560 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 19: farst side, close down by Rothrock, right in front of 1186 00:57:45,240 --> 00:57:48,240 Speaker 19: the assistant referee. Back it goes clipped in by dz 1187 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 19: headed away by Jackson Reagan, which he did so well, 1188 00:57:50,680 --> 00:57:53,160 Speaker 19: and they comes Morris now nothing forward and available to him. 1189 00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 19: He has to slow the game down, goes down the 1190 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:59,440 Speaker 19: referees to give the free kick. He just waited, did 1191 00:57:59,520 --> 00:58:02,080 Speaker 19: Jordan a right? So now could be a yellow card 1192 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 19: by Peree. Has he got in the way. Jordan Morrison 1193 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:06,880 Speaker 19: wants to get the game going. He does, finds Rosnack 1194 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 19: center of the park. 1195 00:58:07,840 --> 00:58:10,280 Speaker 30: I like that from Jordan trying to move the ball quickly, 1196 00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,920 Speaker 30: trying to get things going. That gets him engaged in 1197 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:13,920 Speaker 30: the game even more so. 1198 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 19: Good for Jordan comes Rosnick center to this near side 1199 00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 19: the right to roll down. Sound is now finding as 1200 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:23,560 Speaker 19: Pete Feuing mentioned, a little bit of rhythm in their 1201 00:58:23,640 --> 00:58:25,520 Speaker 19: game in the last five minutes or so is get here. 1202 00:58:25,560 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 19: The twentieth minute nil nil Sounders Minnesota in Saint Paul 1203 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 19: Minnesota Alliance Field, first round of the playoffs. The ball 1204 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:37,360 Speaker 19: gets clipped, it towards Jordan Morris and the ball bouncer 1205 00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:40,480 Speaker 19: around and eventually cleaned up by Dane sint Clair. It 1206 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:44,240 Speaker 19: came off Mark Nick and not deemed to have passed 1207 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 19: the ball back as it came off his combination of 1208 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:48,760 Speaker 19: his thigh in his chest and eventually picked up by 1209 00:58:50,040 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 19: Dane sint Clair. As he mentioned, he's up for goalkeeper 1210 00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:55,240 Speaker 19: of the Year this year. Is Dane Saint Clair, the 1211 00:58:55,280 --> 00:59:00,160 Speaker 19: Canadian international and he's given up ten goals less and 1212 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 19: the expected goals against, and that is second in MLS 1213 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 19: in that particular category. So from the encyclopedia of data 1214 00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 19: that you get now from MLS, certainly is leading some 1215 00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:16,680 Speaker 19: of those stats. First in save percentage, whatever that is. 1216 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 29: You tell me, Pete, I think that's the percentage of saves. 1217 00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 19: Thank you, insightful, thank you. Here comes Resnik. Now can 1218 00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 19: he break things apart and get on the score? Sheheet 1219 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,040 Speaker 19: nil nil, sound as Minnesota. 1220 00:59:31,440 --> 00:59:32,320 Speaker 29: I'm gonna have to get back. 1221 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:38,040 Speaker 19: I figured you might. I'll drop that one on you. 1222 00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 19: Some halftime home work for you, Pete. I'll ask you 1223 00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:41,479 Speaker 19: the second half. 1224 00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:46,720 Speaker 29: There was no discussion of mouth before this game started. 1225 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:53,080 Speaker 19: Here comes Resnik. Can he on his sounder? Is starting 1226 00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:55,320 Speaker 19: at number ten? Here Ferrera now try to find no 1227 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,720 Speaker 19: way playing alongside each other. Of course, with Rosnack being 1228 00:59:57,800 --> 00:59:59,520 Speaker 19: out for a period of time, Farrera stepped in that 1229 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:02,800 Speaker 19: number ten and played so well. He's really been a 1230 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:07,280 Speaker 19: great asset. In addition, for the sound is maybe a 1231 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 19: slight different way than they thought, but here come the 1232 01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 19: sound is now little given go Here comes Roth on 1233 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:12,760 Speaker 19: top of the books. Just over he got a chance 1234 01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:15,200 Speaker 19: to eighteen yards. It was a good flick by Morris 1235 01:00:15,720 --> 01:00:18,640 Speaker 19: found the ruin of Rothrock in behind, good vision, try 1236 01:00:18,720 --> 01:00:20,640 Speaker 19: to curl the ball into the far corner, goes over 1237 01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 19: goal kick Neil nil. 1238 01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:25,280 Speaker 30: What a great entry ball from Jamark and a little 1239 01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 30: one too quick one from Albert Rusnik Jordan Mourris with 1240 01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:30,920 Speaker 30: a flick Paul Rothrock running off. 1241 01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:32,560 Speaker 29: That was picture perfect. 1242 01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,280 Speaker 30: That was Manchester City right there when they're playing at 1243 01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:37,240 Speaker 30: their best. Rothrock just a little bit high to the 1244 01:00:37,320 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 30: far post. Unfortunate. 1245 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 19: He wants that one back for sure, Rothrock de Bruyne 1246 01:00:43,640 --> 01:00:44,480 Speaker 19: potato batata. 1247 01:00:46,600 --> 01:00:49,320 Speaker 29: Yes, we have Paul Rothrock. 1248 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 19: We do have Paul Rothrock. We do have Messy, but 1249 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:52,120 Speaker 19: we do have Paul Rock. 1250 01:00:52,760 --> 01:00:55,160 Speaker 30: But that was a terrific combination. What a great ball 1251 01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:59,320 Speaker 30: from uh Gomez Androtti. That's two or three balls that 1252 01:00:59,360 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 30: we've seen from our center backs. 1253 01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 19: Referee, I think we'll just confirm that yellow card, sure 1254 01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 19: if it's pereer for maybe knocking the ball out long 1255 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:14,400 Speaker 19: one air potential. We'll get a confirmation on that in 1256 01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:18,120 Speaker 19: just a moment. As we look down on a ticker 1257 01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 19: right here to see the stamps and yellow cards. The 1258 01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:23,600 Speaker 19: ball gets launched by Dane Sinclair one well by rolled 1259 01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:26,320 Speaker 19: on Jordan Morris isn't able to get their box or 1260 01:01:26,320 --> 01:01:27,920 Speaker 19: steps sad picked up now by the sounds. This is 1261 01:01:27,960 --> 01:01:29,840 Speaker 19: where they can go at speed in the middle of 1262 01:01:29,880 --> 01:01:31,440 Speaker 19: the park, but a little loose on the ball by 1263 01:01:31,560 --> 01:01:38,200 Speaker 19: Rozneck chased down of course by Christian Rolldan. So good, 1264 01:01:38,240 --> 01:01:43,000 Speaker 19: of course to see so many players with strong grassroots 1265 01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 19: here in the Seattle area. Of course, the rolled On 1266 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:48,800 Speaker 19: brothers didn't grow up here, but both played the collegiate 1267 01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:53,600 Speaker 19: ball in seattlu and you dub of course, Jordan Morris, 1268 01:01:53,720 --> 01:01:56,960 Speaker 19: Mercer Island native Paul Rothrock, Seattle Jackson Reagan who wins 1269 01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:59,360 Speaker 19: the header, another player that of course grew up in 1270 01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:03,160 Speaker 19: the Seattle area, going way to college to Michigan coming 1271 01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:05,120 Speaker 19: back after four years a little in common now to 1272 01:02:05,160 --> 01:02:08,120 Speaker 19: have those collegiate players come back like roth Rock and 1273 01:02:08,200 --> 01:02:12,760 Speaker 19: Reagan have and have such a impact in MLS. 1274 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:17,120 Speaker 30: Well, it's interesting because US Federation has just come out 1275 01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:20,520 Speaker 30: with how to improve college athletics, and Adrian Hannah is 1276 01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:23,120 Speaker 30: on the committee, and I think it's because they're seeing that. 1277 01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:26,560 Speaker 29: I'm very proud of how Seattle has built their roster and. 1278 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:30,120 Speaker 30: Done it with local guys coming through the academy, College 1279 01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:33,440 Speaker 30: guys as well. Financially, it serves the team very well 1280 01:02:33,520 --> 01:02:36,040 Speaker 30: because when they are young, it's not as much for 1281 01:02:36,120 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 30: each of these players. So they're looking at how to 1282 01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:42,480 Speaker 30: maybe improve the college game to prep more players, just 1283 01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:44,320 Speaker 30: as college does for the NFL. 1284 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:47,200 Speaker 19: YEP thirty second minute. Here in Saint Paul, Minnesota, nil 1285 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,680 Speaker 19: Sound is nil as score up that is presented by 1286 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:51,840 Speaker 19: Providence Swedish. Sound is now getting a bit more of 1287 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:55,040 Speaker 19: a grip of the game as they try and probe 1288 01:02:55,240 --> 01:02:57,520 Speaker 19: try to find that opening goal. Of course, let's just 1289 01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:00,880 Speaker 19: remind every first game of three in this series in 1290 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 19: the first round it will go from this round to 1291 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,600 Speaker 19: the next round will be a single elimination. Highest seed 1292 01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:11,280 Speaker 19: will host in these particular games. In the first round, 1293 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 19: there's no overtime, so no fifty minutes of overtime or 1294 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 19: two to fifty minute halves straight to penalties. There needs 1295 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:22,800 Speaker 19: to be a winner, no aggregate score, best of three. 1296 01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 19: Sounders as we mentioned last year one through on PKS 1297 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:33,360 Speaker 19: against Houston, Sounders love to get it done in ninety minutes, 1298 01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,240 Speaker 19: but an awight team does have the chance to nick 1299 01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:39,280 Speaker 19: a drawer and then win on a penalty shootout, and 1300 01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:43,960 Speaker 19: Minnesota they will host. If it goes to three games, 1301 01:03:44,040 --> 01:03:49,080 Speaker 19: the third game will be here. So next Monday evening 1302 01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:51,520 Speaker 19: the Sounders will host the second game. Come what May, 1303 01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:56,720 Speaker 19: seven thirty pm kickoff, and there's just a replay down 1304 01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:58,600 Speaker 19: on our screen. That's what it was. It was a 1305 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:03,200 Speaker 19: little late on Christian role as long one it gets 1306 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:08,240 Speaker 19: that yellow card. Course was guilty of that wonderful chance. 1307 01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:12,720 Speaker 19: We'll call it big time miss about six yards Jackson 1308 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:16,360 Speaker 19: regand just enough, just to give a little nudge. Vaar 1309 01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:19,440 Speaker 19: did not take a look at it, thankfully for the Sounders. 1310 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:21,320 Speaker 19: Remains no one nil. 1311 01:04:21,800 --> 01:04:24,439 Speaker 30: You talk about penalty kicks, Saint Claire's good on penalty kicks. 1312 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:27,880 Speaker 30: He's aggressive, he's a little bit more like Andrew or 1313 01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:29,920 Speaker 30: Andrew Thomas be come. 1314 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:31,560 Speaker 19: The sound is resnak top of the box. When's the 1315 01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:34,200 Speaker 19: ball takes the fraction just wide, it's gonna be a 1316 01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:37,000 Speaker 19: corner kick. Eventually trickled over the end line. There's a 1317 01:04:37,040 --> 01:04:39,600 Speaker 19: give up by Minnesota. Sounders able to pounce and he 1318 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:43,280 Speaker 19: was Rusnak fromout eighteen yards. Good defending in the end 1319 01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:46,320 Speaker 19: by Minnesota and box al. It's gonna be a corner 1320 01:04:46,400 --> 01:04:47,520 Speaker 19: kick on this right hand side. 1321 01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:49,280 Speaker 29: It's a pretty wide open game. 1322 01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:53,400 Speaker 30: Each team's had their opportunities with that deflection could have 1323 01:04:53,440 --> 01:04:54,000 Speaker 30: gone our way. 1324 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:55,280 Speaker 29: We're a little unlucky there. 1325 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:57,360 Speaker 30: Going back to the penalty kicks with Saint Clair, he's 1326 01:04:57,360 --> 01:04:59,880 Speaker 30: an aggressive He's like Andrew Thomas, is very athletic. 1327 01:05:00,800 --> 01:05:03,880 Speaker 29: He's done well on penalty kicks shootouts and he's confident. 1328 01:05:04,920 --> 01:05:07,439 Speaker 19: Three goals from one hundred and eighty ish corner kicks 1329 01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:13,640 Speaker 19: for the Sounders. So can they execute here? Ball comes in, 1330 01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:16,640 Speaker 19: tagged by Jackson Reagan. Well, ball bounces around, no foul 1331 01:05:16,680 --> 01:05:19,640 Speaker 19: given by the referee, eventually comes off Jackson. He's got 1332 01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 19: to trickle towards Dane Sinclair. They're going into New York City. 1333 01:05:23,680 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 19: Last week it was two out of one hundred and 1334 01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:30,320 Speaker 19: seventy one, so not exactly prolific the Sounders from corner kicks, 1335 01:05:31,320 --> 01:05:34,320 Speaker 19: but two offset piece as we mentioned, one being the 1336 01:05:34,400 --> 01:05:37,800 Speaker 19: corner kick from Jackson Reagan. And if that is ending 1337 01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:41,640 Speaker 19: to show for the playoffs, Sounders do have the firepower 1338 01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:44,600 Speaker 19: to score from corner kicks. Now with Theemar back in 1339 01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:46,959 Speaker 19: the lineup, he of course is forceful. He's already showing 1340 01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:49,560 Speaker 19: that with a flicked header over he comes all done 1341 01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:53,080 Speaker 19: chased down by Mark Nick, poked back towards Fry, who 1342 01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:56,440 Speaker 19: launches it forward with his right foot, challenged up in 1343 01:05:56,440 --> 01:05:59,439 Speaker 19: the air by Triantis, now rolled on heads it forward 1344 01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:03,000 Speaker 19: to for as John Morris just runs into the back 1345 01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:08,240 Speaker 19: of Ferrera. The ball gets pulled away by Roald Down 1346 01:06:08,720 --> 01:06:12,640 Speaker 19: catches the leg of Long one. A right there, it's 1347 01:06:12,680 --> 01:06:14,600 Speaker 19: gonna be a free kick four Minnesota. They've got some 1348 01:06:14,680 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 19: big boys as well coming up for these free kicks 1349 01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:22,640 Speaker 19: and Boxel Romero and Diaz. Pereer just have a nice 1350 01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:27,920 Speaker 19: left foot, does the Argentinian man. Six goals and eleven 1351 01:06:28,000 --> 01:06:30,120 Speaker 19: assists on his campaign Long one. 1352 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:33,080 Speaker 29: He's a handful. He is fast as quick and he's 1353 01:06:33,120 --> 01:06:36,000 Speaker 29: in the middle of everything. Very difficult to play. 1354 01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:40,720 Speaker 19: Again, powerful player. Three goals, two assists are not prolific 1355 01:06:40,800 --> 01:06:43,360 Speaker 19: in terms of stats, but he's certainly shown himself already 1356 01:06:44,440 --> 01:06:47,520 Speaker 19: so far in the absence of Yo Boa, who's their 1357 01:06:47,600 --> 01:06:51,040 Speaker 19: talisman up front. Of course, the first game that Yeboa played, 1358 01:06:51,080 --> 01:06:52,800 Speaker 19: if memory service, was against the Sound is where he 1359 01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:57,360 Speaker 19: got two goals. It comes pere now just tucked him 1360 01:06:57,360 --> 01:07:00,280 Speaker 19: from this left hand side with his left foot whipped 1361 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:02,720 Speaker 19: in from forty yards away from Stefron. Fry's goal gets 1362 01:07:03,080 --> 01:07:06,800 Speaker 19: headed forward, run in two by box on Fry. Was 1363 01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:10,920 Speaker 19: he easily able to grab it from but that header 1364 01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:13,840 Speaker 19: and get here in the thirty seventh minute Sounders nil, 1365 01:07:13,880 --> 01:07:17,520 Speaker 19: Minnesota nil. I think Brian schmittz A Pete will be 1366 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:20,920 Speaker 19: satisfied so far as he wait team in this first game. 1367 01:07:21,160 --> 01:07:21,720 Speaker 29: I think he will. 1368 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:23,360 Speaker 30: He'll want he'll want goals from a couple of the 1369 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:26,600 Speaker 30: opportunities that they've had. But it's gone both directions. Fry's 1370 01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:29,880 Speaker 30: had to cover two to his right that have gone 1371 01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:32,440 Speaker 30: just wide, so each team's had their opportunity. I think 1372 01:07:32,480 --> 01:07:35,800 Speaker 30: you'll want both sides offensively and defensively to tighten up 1373 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:38,160 Speaker 30: a little bit, a little more quality when we're in 1374 01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:41,720 Speaker 30: the box, and a little more communication when we're in 1375 01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:42,120 Speaker 30: the box. 1376 01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 19: Well, this copyright you to audio costs of Major League 1377 01:07:45,200 --> 01:07:48,400 Speaker 19: Soccer may not be retransmitted, to reproduced, or rebroadcast without 1378 01:07:48,440 --> 01:07:53,600 Speaker 19: the express written consent of Major League Soccer or some 1379 01:07:54,200 --> 01:08:00,800 Speaker 19: other results.

Nag Us, the 1380 01:08:00,880 --> 01:08:03,840 Speaker 19: Columbus captain, announced his retirement at the end of this season. 1381 01:08:04,120 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 19: Former Portland man, of course, Atlanta man incredible career in 1382 01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,800 Speaker 19: MLS as Darlington Nagby for the US men's national team 1383 01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 19: as well. Of course, the ball gets launched forward by 1384 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,640 Speaker 19: Dane Sinclair one by oh Bed out to the far 1385 01:08:16,760 --> 01:08:18,680 Speaker 19: side the right, picked up by Diaz who clips it 1386 01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:21,360 Speaker 19: along towards the end line, towards box or who just 1387 01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:23,360 Speaker 19: whips it in and off the shins of oh bet 1388 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:25,600 Speaker 19: it goes over the end line. It's going to be 1389 01:08:25,640 --> 01:08:27,200 Speaker 19: a corner kick for Minnesota. 1390 01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:30,479 Speaker 30: Nabie as one of my favorite goals, edge of the 1391 01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:34,080 Speaker 30: box cornerkick, pops it up first time on the volley, 1392 01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:36,519 Speaker 30: pops it in the air, and then smashes it home. 1393 01:08:36,960 --> 01:08:38,479 Speaker 29: Yeah, he's had a tremendous career. 1394 01:08:41,040 --> 01:08:44,240 Speaker 19: Sound as dominating possession as you'd expect Minnesota right on 1395 01:08:44,320 --> 01:08:46,719 Speaker 19: that forty mark as they have been all years. Sound 1396 01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:49,680 Speaker 19: as past the fifty five percent mark of course that 1397 01:08:49,760 --> 01:08:51,880 Speaker 19: Brian Schwetz always set for his team home or away, 1398 01:08:51,880 --> 01:08:56,120 Speaker 19: as Pete Fong mentioned just earlier. But here comes Minnesota now, 1399 01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:59,720 Speaker 19: flags flying ball comes in, goes long, flicks up in 1400 01:08:59,720 --> 01:09:01,519 Speaker 19: the air, what was a back post ball, bounce around 1401 01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:04,599 Speaker 19: the six, poke forward and collected by Stephan Fry off 1402 01:09:04,640 --> 01:09:07,840 Speaker 19: the toe of long one ah sounds then to do 1403 01:09:07,880 --> 01:09:10,200 Speaker 19: a great job at defending that corner kick, but eventually 1404 01:09:11,080 --> 01:09:12,320 Speaker 19: was able to grab it and throw it out to 1405 01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:13,519 Speaker 19: Rosneck on this near side. 1406 01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:15,439 Speaker 29: We've been a little bit loose. We've got to get 1407 01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:16,120 Speaker 29: these balls out. 1408 01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:18,519 Speaker 30: This has happened a couple of times where you go, 1409 01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:20,439 Speaker 30: I go, a little bit of confusion and we've been 1410 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:21,720 Speaker 30: fortunate not to give one up. 1411 01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:24,800 Speaker 19: Well, don't leave us half time, Jackson felt chance Fire 1412 01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:26,680 Speaker 19: were be back to break everything down. Let's get here 1413 01:09:27,280 --> 01:09:30,720 Speaker 19: the final six plus minutes of this first half and 1414 01:09:30,760 --> 01:09:32,760 Speaker 19: then whatever the referee will add on. Not too much 1415 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:35,880 Speaker 19: to speak off so far, hasn't been anybody down for 1416 01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:39,880 Speaker 19: medical staff or medical attention, no var corp, no subs. 1417 01:09:39,960 --> 01:09:42,599 Speaker 19: So see the referee ans on. It can't be too 1418 01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 19: much as we get here in the final moments of 1419 01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:49,320 Speaker 19: this first half in Saint Paul, Jemo has it back 1420 01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:51,800 Speaker 19: in the lineup as you'd mentioned. Great to see for 1421 01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:55,160 Speaker 19: all Sounders fans. Is he his presence back there, kim Key, 1422 01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:57,920 Speaker 19: he is. We'll be back in short order. He's out 1423 01:09:57,960 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 19: in the training field yesterday as he comes back from 1424 01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:02,960 Speaker 19: in Ryan Kent. It's going to be a really good addition, 1425 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:06,719 Speaker 19: going to be the X factor in these final weeks 1426 01:10:06,720 --> 01:10:08,760 Speaker 19: of the season joint playoffs. The ball goes towards Alex 1427 01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:11,720 Speaker 19: Ordan towards the end line, and Romera just steps over 1428 01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:13,240 Speaker 19: the ball, lets the ball go of the end line. 1429 01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:16,599 Speaker 19: Could be a go kate for Minnesota five minutes ago 1430 01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:17,360 Speaker 19: before halftime. 1431 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:21,559 Speaker 30: No, No, Alex Horddan's been good both defensively right next 1432 01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:23,519 Speaker 30: to his goal and getting himself forward, getting all the 1433 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:26,240 Speaker 30: way to the end line trying to get on the offensive. Then, 1434 01:10:26,360 --> 01:10:28,920 Speaker 30: so I like when Brian, when Brian lets him come 1435 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:33,080 Speaker 30: inside and shoots himself forward, knew who stay stays home 1436 01:10:33,120 --> 01:10:35,640 Speaker 30: a little more allows Alex to get himself forward. So 1437 01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:37,400 Speaker 30: Alex has been having a good game. 1438 01:10:38,000 --> 01:10:40,400 Speaker 19: We'll spend like it matters by sporting bike, pok and 1439 01:10:40,479 --> 01:10:44,200 Speaker 19: diverse owned businesses all year long.

Reagan picked up by Rosales on the ricochet, 1450 01:11:15,920 --> 01:11:17,960 Speaker 19: finds it ten yards from the end line far side. 1451 01:11:18,280 --> 01:11:21,800 Speaker 19: Minnesota's right ball goes into Trianta, skips by News strikes it. 1452 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:25,080 Speaker 19: Good save by Fry. It was a snapshot from a 1453 01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:27,519 Speaker 19: tight angle, but Treanta has already shown a couple of 1454 01:11:27,600 --> 01:11:33,160 Speaker 19: times his ability to strike the ball. Sounders now possess Fry. 1455 01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:35,800 Speaker 19: Not a great clearest by Stephan Fry and then hooked 1456 01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:39,880 Speaker 19: over the top by Perea. Sounders causing their own issues 1457 01:11:39,880 --> 01:11:42,400 Speaker 19: again inside the defensive third of the field. But it's 1458 01:11:42,439 --> 01:11:44,040 Speaker 19: gonna be a goal kick. It's gonna be nil nil. 1459 01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:46,639 Speaker 19: Something to clean up for the Sounders in that second. 1460 01:11:46,640 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 30: For the second half, good reactions saving perries it wide 1461 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:52,920 Speaker 30: away from the goal. They've got two Minnesota players right 1462 01:11:52,960 --> 01:11:55,040 Speaker 30: in front of Fry. If he doesn't push it where 1463 01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,439 Speaker 30: it does, you could have a problem. Good for Steph, 1464 01:11:58,040 --> 01:11:59,880 Speaker 30: we've been a little Lackaday's a goal inside our. 1465 01:12:02,280 --> 01:12:02,479 Speaker 8: Yeh. 1466 01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:06,759 Speaker 19: Four shots on goal for Minnesota out of seven sounds 1467 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:10,400 Speaker 19: I've had nine, only hit the target twice. Too much 1468 01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:12,720 Speaker 19: to speak of in terms of saves for Dane Saint 1469 01:12:12,760 --> 01:12:20,800 Speaker 19: Clair ball bounced around farside, challenged by Rothrock, lay in 1470 01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:22,880 Speaker 19: the challenge by Rozars, but the fowl was already given 1471 01:12:23,040 --> 01:12:25,720 Speaker 19: by a push from Rothrock on Diaz on the far 1472 01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:32,160 Speaker 19: side for conversation beteen referee and Paul he backs away. 1473 01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:34,960 Speaker 19: It's gonna be a free kick for Minnesota. So let's 1474 01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:39,160 Speaker 19: give us a couple more playoff results from early part 1475 01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:41,920 Speaker 19: of last week. Oh, this passed the last weekend Friday, 1476 01:12:42,120 --> 01:12:46,200 Speaker 19: Miami three Nashville one. Big dominant performance by Miami. They're 1477 01:12:46,200 --> 01:12:47,640 Speaker 19: going to try and make a run this year. Of 1478 01:12:47,720 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 19: course last year top of the pile, and then shockingly 1479 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:54,280 Speaker 19: went out I think it was Atlanta in the early 1480 01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:58,720 Speaker 19: stages of the playoffs. Sunday was Philadelphia to Chicago two, 1481 01:12:58,800 --> 01:13:03,519 Speaker 19: Philly one, four to on penalties, Vancouver three Dallas nil. 1482 01:13:03,600 --> 01:13:07,439 Speaker 19: So convincing performance by Vancouver, who have shown again how 1483 01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:11,960 Speaker 19: strong defensively they are. Thomas Muller has been a great 1484 01:13:12,000 --> 01:13:14,080 Speaker 19: addition both on and off the field. And then San 1485 01:13:14,160 --> 01:13:17,679 Speaker 19: Diego gets a two to one win at home against 1486 01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:22,519 Speaker 19: Portland and I'll go back to Portland for the second game. 1487 01:13:23,640 --> 01:13:25,280 Speaker 19: So if the Sounders were able to get through this 1488 01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:28,200 Speaker 19: game five verses four and all the top seeds win 1489 01:13:28,280 --> 01:13:33,560 Speaker 19: above them when the Sounders will play San Diego on 1490 01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:41,160 Speaker 19: the road. LFC played Wednesday against Austin Charlotte, New York tomorrow, 1491 01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:42,680 Speaker 19: but here come the Sounders. Can they take care of 1492 01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:46,040 Speaker 19: business tonight, take a one nill lead in the series 1493 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:48,960 Speaker 19: back home and ended all as we did last year 1494 01:13:49,800 --> 01:13:53,600 Speaker 19: in two straight games. Whereznek has from the ball and 1495 01:13:53,640 --> 01:13:56,639 Speaker 19: this near side the right just plays it inside to Obed, 1496 01:13:56,800 --> 01:13:59,880 Speaker 19: drives forward, plays the ball into Alex who knocks in 1497 01:14:00,080 --> 01:14:01,720 Speaker 19: back to Rosnick and then clips it all the way 1498 01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:05,120 Speaker 19: towards Jackson Reagan confidently and over the top of Lud. 1499 01:14:05,160 --> 01:14:09,080 Speaker 19: It goes and coflected by rolled On. Good calm, confident 1500 01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:11,360 Speaker 19: play by the sound as they build from this near 1501 01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:13,960 Speaker 19: side to the far side ball and the foot of 1502 01:14:14,600 --> 01:14:17,840 Speaker 19: Christian rolled On rolls it across to Jackson Reagan. Eleven 1503 01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:20,320 Speaker 19: men behind the ball for Minnesota. Two minutes to goo 1504 01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:23,439 Speaker 19: of the forty five and whatever the referee adds on 1505 01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:27,080 Speaker 19: nil nil sound as Minnesota in this first game of 1506 01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:30,960 Speaker 19: the playoffs, can they make a breakthrough before halftime. It 1507 01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:34,760 Speaker 19: comes oh bed to Rosnek on the right Channel's gonna 1508 01:14:34,760 --> 01:14:37,599 Speaker 19: whip it in towards Rothrop making the run ball, bounce 1509 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:39,639 Speaker 19: it up towards rolled on top of the box, plays 1510 01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:41,839 Speaker 19: it out to this right hand side again to Rousnick. 1511 01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:44,639 Speaker 19: Ball inside square to roll on inside the eighteen towards 1512 01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:47,160 Speaker 19: his left foot. Tries to drive it lot well by 1513 01:14:47,760 --> 01:14:51,439 Speaker 19: Triantis and then pulled away by Mark Nick. He's gonna 1514 01:14:51,479 --> 01:14:55,000 Speaker 19: knock it inside and a little clip forward towards Perea 1515 01:14:56,000 --> 01:14:58,599 Speaker 19: and Jackson. Reagan just reads the ball well and then 1516 01:14:58,720 --> 01:15:02,120 Speaker 19: just absorbs pressure by Pereire plays out well. Sound is 1517 01:15:02,160 --> 01:15:04,080 Speaker 19: able to build in a triangle on this near side 1518 01:15:04,120 --> 01:15:05,880 Speaker 19: the right, we. 1519 01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:08,519 Speaker 30: See about twenty five passes in a row from Seattle 1520 01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:12,640 Speaker 30: and then a transition encounter from Minnesota. That is what 1521 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:15,599 Speaker 30: they want to do each time Seattle takes a couple 1522 01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:18,120 Speaker 30: of minutes off the clock, like to get something more 1523 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:18,320 Speaker 30: of that. 1524 01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:20,600 Speaker 29: But it was a good opportunity for Seattle. 1525 01:15:20,320 --> 01:15:22,479 Speaker 19: Give away by the sound. Is Minnesota come again? Whether 1526 01:15:22,520 --> 01:15:25,519 Speaker 19: it can be dangering the counter is lud right corner 1527 01:15:25,560 --> 01:15:27,320 Speaker 19: of the box back on his left foot cuts it 1528 01:15:27,720 --> 01:15:32,960 Speaker 19: towards the right to Rosales, out to Diaz and then 1529 01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,639 Speaker 19: little loose on the ball by Rosales. Jordan Morrice can't 1530 01:15:35,640 --> 01:15:37,439 Speaker 19: get there. He's been a little bit isolated at times 1531 01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:39,840 Speaker 19: as Jordan up front can happen in a four to 1532 01:15:39,840 --> 01:15:41,840 Speaker 19: two three one away from home, it's if you're patient, 1533 01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:48,200 Speaker 19: hopefully the chance will come. It's Romero final thirty seconds 1534 01:15:48,280 --> 01:15:50,760 Speaker 19: of the forty five. Sounders need to defend well. Go 1535 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:53,680 Speaker 19: in nice and tight to the half time break. Get 1536 01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:57,519 Speaker 19: some directive from Brian the coaching staff as the ball 1537 01:15:57,560 --> 01:16:01,080 Speaker 19: gets whipped in easily collected by Steff and Fry and 1538 01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,240 Speaker 19: we'll look down see what the fourth official will add on. 1539 01:16:03,439 --> 01:16:06,120 Speaker 19: But wherever you're headed, Discount Tire wants to get you 1540 01:16:06,200 --> 01:16:09,200 Speaker 19: there safely.

It's good to see 1544 01:16:21,320 --> 01:16:25,439 Speaker 19: he and Obed back in the mix one minute of 1545 01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:27,160 Speaker 19: at a time. Just so we thought nothing much to 1546 01:16:27,200 --> 01:16:29,519 Speaker 19: speak of in terms of stoppages in that first half. 1547 01:16:31,720 --> 01:16:33,639 Speaker 29: I think Brown will be happy that were zero zero 1548 01:16:33,840 --> 01:16:34,200 Speaker 29: right now. 1549 01:16:34,560 --> 01:16:36,479 Speaker 30: I think it's time to step up a little bit, 1550 01:16:36,520 --> 01:16:38,160 Speaker 30: try to get this win in the next forty five 1551 01:16:38,240 --> 01:16:39,000 Speaker 30: minutes second half. 1552 01:16:39,760 --> 01:16:42,200 Speaker 19: There come the Sounders. Can they play and find a 1553 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:45,000 Speaker 19: goal headed forward by Rolldam and that's not gonna do it. 1554 01:16:45,040 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 19: It's gonna go right into the hands of Dan Sinclair 1555 01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:51,000 Speaker 19: as he jogs forward. Of course, to the Sounders. It 1556 01:16:51,200 --> 01:16:56,360 Speaker 19: was a dominant record away two Minnesota across the course 1557 01:16:56,400 --> 01:17:02,800 Speaker 19: of the MLS season twelve three and two record for 1558 01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:06,599 Speaker 19: the Sounders in regular season play, but two of those 1559 01:17:06,680 --> 01:17:09,519 Speaker 19: three wins came this year three two win at Luhman 1560 01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:14,040 Speaker 19: and then a one nil win more recently here at 1561 01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:16,639 Speaker 19: Alliance Field for Minnesota. But there's a referees. We're starts 1562 01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:18,719 Speaker 19: to bring this first half to an end. KG affairs 1563 01:17:18,760 --> 01:17:22,320 Speaker 19: you'd expect in the first game of the playoffs. But 1564 01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:24,800 Speaker 19: the sound has had a couple of chances, as did Minnesota. 1565 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:26,480 Speaker 19: Peat fewing your final thoughts. 1566 01:17:26,439 --> 01:17:28,840 Speaker 30: You're right, cage is probably how I would describe it 1567 01:17:28,920 --> 01:17:30,800 Speaker 30: as well. Each team had chances. For I had to 1568 01:17:30,800 --> 01:17:32,920 Speaker 30: come up with a big save Saint Clair not too 1569 01:17:32,960 --> 01:17:34,960 Speaker 30: many big saves, but we had some good service into 1570 01:17:35,000 --> 01:17:37,599 Speaker 30: the box. So I think the second half it'll be uh. 1571 01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:40,640 Speaker 30: I think both coaches Ramsey. I think we'll wish he 1572 01:17:40,760 --> 01:17:41,240 Speaker 30: had the lead. 1573 01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:42,120 Speaker 29: I think Brian. 1574 01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:44,880 Speaker 30: Schmetzer is happy at the zero zero, but I think 1575 01:17:44,880 --> 01:17:46,920 Speaker 30: they'll come out and clean things up for the second half. 1576 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:48,920 Speaker 19: We'll take a short break, Jackson, and a chance we'll 1577 01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:50,880 Speaker 19: be back to break it all down at halftime. Here 1578 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:54,040 Speaker 19: at Alliance Field, it's Minnesota nil, Sounders nil. 1579 01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:57,840 Speaker 7: At Columbia Bank, our business is about rooting for yours. 1580 01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:01,719 Speaker 7: Our dedicated bankers are experts at helping you navigate financial 1581 01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:05,160 Speaker 7: solutions centered around your small business.

Jackson Felton, chance for I here for the 1629 01:20:29,400 --> 01:20:30,040 Speaker 3: halftime show. 1630 01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:30,719 Speaker 19: Chance. 1631 01:20:30,760 --> 01:20:32,759 Speaker 3: What did you make there of the first forty five minutes? 1632 01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:36,160 Speaker 5: Well, just like the boys said on the cast, it 1633 01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:39,200 Speaker 5: it was back and forth. We had a great start 1634 01:20:39,280 --> 01:20:40,720 Speaker 5: and then we kind of slowed down a little bit. 1635 01:20:40,800 --> 01:20:44,479 Speaker 5: Minnesota had some very good chances, one player coming in 1636 01:20:44,640 --> 01:20:47,519 Speaker 5: and Jackson giving him a little bump and slotted it wide. 1637 01:20:47,560 --> 01:20:52,720 Speaker 5: But you know, both teams did okay. I think they 1638 01:20:52,760 --> 01:20:54,360 Speaker 5: were a little bit nervous. It's the first game of 1639 01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:57,720 Speaker 5: the playoffs, and nobody's really willing to just go for it. 1640 01:20:57,920 --> 01:20:59,880 Speaker 6: And I think we started off well. 1641 01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:02,280 Speaker 5: We need to play a little bit quicker, a little 1642 01:21:02,280 --> 01:21:05,479 Speaker 5: bit faster when we're going forward before they can get 1643 01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:06,240 Speaker 5: their self set up. 1644 01:21:06,400 --> 01:21:06,800 Speaker 19: You mentioned it. 1645 01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 3: Let's go back to the ninth minute on that play 1646 01:21:09,000 --> 01:21:12,400 Speaker 3: by Bongi Hung Jane, who has that big breakaway and 1647 01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:14,880 Speaker 3: he has a one on one with Stephen fry Jackson. 1648 01:21:14,960 --> 01:21:18,920 Speaker 3: Reagan's trailing after him. Reagan has an outstretched arm that 1649 01:21:19,439 --> 01:21:22,320 Speaker 3: just takes lung Juana right, just a little off of 1650 01:21:22,400 --> 01:21:25,280 Speaker 3: his balance and he scuffs the shot. I said he 1651 01:21:25,360 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 3: got away with one. I think that is absolutely if 1652 01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:30,720 Speaker 3: var looks at that, and if it's an added extra look, 1653 01:21:31,080 --> 01:21:33,960 Speaker 3: that is a for sure penalty. So I think we 1654 01:21:34,000 --> 01:21:35,479 Speaker 3: got away with one. What did you see there? 1655 01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:38,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think maybe he got away with it. 1656 01:21:38,160 --> 01:21:40,160 Speaker 5: But I was talking with Danny right at the end there, 1657 01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:42,920 Speaker 5: and I think that whenever he was just about to shoot, 1658 01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:45,200 Speaker 5: and as he gets touched, he's already leaning that way 1659 01:21:45,280 --> 01:21:47,919 Speaker 5: to strike across to the far post, so his momentums 1660 01:21:48,000 --> 01:21:49,200 Speaker 5: kind of take him that way anyway. 1661 01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:52,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then defensively the Sounders more than just that, 1662 01:21:52,200 --> 01:21:54,240 Speaker 3: but just in general, it seems like there is a 1663 01:21:54,280 --> 01:21:57,320 Speaker 3: few moments where communication has broken down, things that they 1664 01:21:57,479 --> 01:21:59,559 Speaker 3: absolutely need to clean up here in the last forty 1665 01:21:59,600 --> 01:22:00,000 Speaker 3: five minute. 1666 01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:02,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, no, absolutely, there were a couple of opportunities that 1667 01:22:02,760 --> 01:22:05,960 Speaker 5: Minnesota had that we were just very sloppy, I mean, 1668 01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:08,840 Speaker 5: be honest about it, and I think that we got 1669 01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:09,639 Speaker 5: a little bit lucky. 1670 01:22:09,960 --> 01:22:13,080 Speaker 6: But I think on the other end, we played well. 1671 01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:16,639 Speaker 5: We had a couple of decent chances and just didn't 1672 01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:18,160 Speaker 5: get really a great strike on it. 1673 01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:21,840 Speaker 6: And I think we'll get those chances again. I feel 1674 01:22:21,880 --> 01:22:23,200 Speaker 6: like we're going to open up a little bit more 1675 01:22:23,200 --> 01:22:23,760 Speaker 6: in the second half. 1676 01:22:23,880 --> 01:22:25,800 Speaker 3: Let's give you the Sounders bench.

Let's take a look here at 1743 01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:05,479 Speaker 3: the Sounders bench tonight. It includes the backup goalkeeper Andrew Thomas. 1744 01:26:06,040 --> 01:26:08,240 Speaker 3: That could be an interesting question if we get closer 1745 01:26:08,280 --> 01:26:11,280 Speaker 3: to penalties and the Sounders have an extra sub wood 1746 01:26:11,360 --> 01:26:14,280 Speaker 3: Brian Schmitzer. Maybe probably not, but you never know. Also 1747 01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:17,439 Speaker 3: on the bench Jonathan Bell, Kloni Coza, Rienzi Read Baker, Whiting, 1748 01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:21,640 Speaker 3: Joel Paolo, Danny Lava, Georgie manongu Osazi de Rosario, and 1749 01:26:21,960 --> 01:26:25,880 Speaker 3: the sixteen goal man himself, Danny Mazowski a chance in 1750 01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:28,799 Speaker 3: a zero zero game right now. I'm wondering this strategy 1751 01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:32,080 Speaker 3: from Schmitzer right now, given that the Sounders have was 1752 01:26:32,120 --> 01:26:34,800 Speaker 3: it sixty two percent possession right now and given the 1753 01:26:34,800 --> 01:26:37,800 Speaker 3: way they've played, who of that can help? And the 1754 01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:40,880 Speaker 3: bigger question is when could those guys help here in 1755 01:26:40,920 --> 01:26:41,559 Speaker 3: the second half. 1756 01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:44,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, there's plenty of firepower on the bench, but he's 1757 01:26:44,760 --> 01:26:46,600 Speaker 5: not going to pull that trigger yet. He's gonna let 1758 01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:48,840 Speaker 5: the team go after the half. I would say at 1759 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:53,360 Speaker 5: least probably ten, maybe fifteen minutes. But there's plenty of 1760 01:26:53,439 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 5: guys that can come out. Georgie can take guys on, 1761 01:26:57,400 --> 01:27:01,360 Speaker 5: Azazo can come on. Danny Masovsk obviously scored goals. But 1762 01:27:01,640 --> 01:27:03,800 Speaker 5: in doing that, you can't just take three guys off 1763 01:27:03,840 --> 01:27:07,280 Speaker 5: that are playing decent. Right now, Okay, we've got Jordan 1764 01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:10,240 Speaker 5: going forward. I think he's still got a goal in him. 1765 01:27:10,280 --> 01:27:11,080 Speaker 6: I believe in him. 1766 01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:13,720 Speaker 5: I think he's going to get one, and we just 1767 01:27:13,800 --> 01:27:16,519 Speaker 5: need to be a little bit sharper in the what 1768 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:19,000 Speaker 5: was it the twenty ninth minute when when Paul Rothrock 1769 01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:21,640 Speaker 5: had that great chance. I was really impressed with that 1770 01:27:22,040 --> 01:27:25,000 Speaker 5: entry pass that came in, nice little dink into Jordan Jordan, 1771 01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:28,559 Speaker 5: little flick around the corner and a shop by Paul, 1772 01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:30,200 Speaker 5: And yeah, we need a little bit more of that, 1773 01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:33,200 Speaker 5: a little bit more quick passes going forward. 1774 01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:36,040 Speaker 3: Well, Danny Jackson's pete feing will tell you if that 1775 01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:38,920 Speaker 3: indeed happens.

Pretty uneventful first half in 1841 01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:16,320 Speaker 19: some ways, but there was chances on both sides. Sounders 1842 01:31:16,360 --> 01:31:20,040 Speaker 19: had a couple as mentioned boy Jackson and chance. Of course, 1843 01:31:20,120 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 19: Minnesot's had a couple of chants as well from Sounders' mistakes. 1844 01:31:24,000 --> 01:31:26,320 Speaker 19: I'm Denny Jackson alongside Pete Fewing here in the booth. 1845 01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:27,880 Speaker 19: So Pete, as the team start to come out, let 1846 01:31:27,920 --> 01:31:30,600 Speaker 19: me get your thoughts on that first half briefly, but 1847 01:31:30,680 --> 01:31:32,439 Speaker 19: more importantly the second half of what did boy and 1848 01:31:32,479 --> 01:31:34,400 Speaker 19: schmidtz to say to his men, Well. 1849 01:31:34,280 --> 01:31:35,920 Speaker 29: I think you nailed what the first half was. It 1850 01:31:36,040 --> 01:31:37,200 Speaker 29: was just a bit uneventful. 1851 01:31:37,479 --> 01:31:39,360 Speaker 30: I think in the halftime, I think this is where 1852 01:31:39,400 --> 01:31:43,360 Speaker 30: players like christ enold On, Stephen Fry, Albert Rusnik, they 1853 01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:45,120 Speaker 30: step up and say, come on, we've got to get 1854 01:31:45,200 --> 01:31:47,479 Speaker 30: something more out of this game. I think there's an 1855 01:31:47,600 --> 01:31:50,760 Speaker 30: urgency for the players to not go to penalty kicks. 1856 01:31:50,880 --> 01:31:53,160 Speaker 30: For the Seattle Sounders, again, I think they have a 1857 01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:57,680 Speaker 30: veteran group that knows they're good, they're talented, they're experienced, 1858 01:31:57,920 --> 01:31:59,760 Speaker 30: and they have an opportunity. They want to get another 1859 01:31:59,800 --> 01:32:02,640 Speaker 30: true this season. That's been a theme ever since they 1860 01:32:02,680 --> 01:32:05,560 Speaker 30: got the first one with earlier in the season, so 1861 01:32:06,000 --> 01:32:09,519 Speaker 30: the League's Cup. So I think the older guys step. 1862 01:32:09,400 --> 01:32:11,120 Speaker 29: Up in this situation and say, come on, we got 1863 01:32:11,200 --> 01:32:11,479 Speaker 29: to raise it. 1864 01:32:11,520 --> 01:32:15,519 Speaker 30: We've had nine days off for Obed and Christian even longer, 1865 01:32:15,960 --> 01:32:17,760 Speaker 30: and so I think the second half you'll see a 1866 01:32:17,840 --> 01:32:22,160 Speaker 30: bit of a lifted, elevated effort and quality. 1867 01:32:22,760 --> 01:32:26,639 Speaker 19: Well, Fryan Morris and Roll Dona all the top ten 1868 01:32:26,760 --> 01:32:29,320 Speaker 19: for number of playoff appearances of active players, So the 1869 01:32:29,400 --> 01:32:32,519 Speaker 19: Sounders have got the experience and with Jordan Morris back 1870 01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:34,679 Speaker 19: on the score sheet last week, they have the top 1871 01:32:35,600 --> 01:32:39,479 Speaker 19: goalscorer of active players in the MLS playoffs in Jordan Morris. 1872 01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:42,640 Speaker 19: Reading some of the news coming out of Minnesota, they 1873 01:32:43,680 --> 01:32:45,880 Speaker 19: keyed onto Jordan as being maybe a key player for 1874 01:32:45,960 --> 01:32:49,200 Speaker 19: the Sounders getting him back in the starting lineup. Of course, 1875 01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:53,240 Speaker 19: has missed significant time this season due to injury muscular 1876 01:32:53,320 --> 01:32:55,320 Speaker 19: the first part of the season, a shoulder injury of 1877 01:32:55,360 --> 01:32:57,719 Speaker 19: course that he picked up the required him to have surgery, 1878 01:32:58,360 --> 01:33:00,800 Speaker 19: and then Brian Schmantz has slowly introduce him back to 1879 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:05,160 Speaker 19: that lineup. But for the Sounders, they're going to defend 1880 01:33:05,200 --> 01:33:07,080 Speaker 19: the goal to our right, attack the goal to our left, 1881 01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:10,160 Speaker 19: and Will Trap just knocks the ball out of bounds. 1882 01:33:10,160 --> 01:33:12,080 Speaker 19: We've seen that so many times, Pete, we talked about 1883 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:15,320 Speaker 19: it before the game today. It feels like it's a 1884 01:33:17,200 --> 01:33:19,599 Speaker 19: method that a lot of teams are doing. Paris enger Man, 1885 01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:22,360 Speaker 19: the Lewis and Rique in essence started it off by 1886 01:33:22,360 --> 01:33:24,280 Speaker 19: all counts about eighteen months ago. We first saw a 1887 01:33:24,320 --> 01:33:27,000 Speaker 19: Club World Cup where they just launched it off the 1888 01:33:27,080 --> 01:33:29,880 Speaker 19: goal kit, off the kickoff out of bounds and then 1889 01:33:29,960 --> 01:33:30,880 Speaker 19: press high up the field. 1890 01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:33,760 Speaker 29: Yes, it's the new trend. It's the new thing to do, 1891 01:33:34,000 --> 01:33:37,000 Speaker 29: so I find it a little bit funny. 1892 01:33:37,920 --> 01:33:40,960 Speaker 19: It comes Triantis, good step by yam or strong tackle right, 1893 01:33:41,040 --> 01:33:44,680 Speaker 19: Prayer heads it forward Minnesota and they're all black kit 1894 01:33:44,760 --> 01:33:47,920 Speaker 19: tonight attacking the goal to our right, Sounder's anniversary kit, 1895 01:33:48,040 --> 01:33:51,000 Speaker 19: green shirts, blue shorts, White Sox attacking the goal to 1896 01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:54,800 Speaker 19: our left for this first half. No changes for either 1897 01:33:54,880 --> 01:33:57,519 Speaker 19: team coming out in this half, which is got to 1898 01:33:57,560 --> 01:33:59,320 Speaker 19: double check that before we give you the lineup. But 1899 01:33:59,360 --> 01:34:02,320 Speaker 19: for the Sounders there is no change for Brian Schmitz 1900 01:34:02,360 --> 01:34:04,559 Speaker 19: as the ball gets launched Long picked up by long 1901 01:34:04,600 --> 01:34:07,320 Speaker 19: Borne off his chest, now challenged by rolled on, giving 1902 01:34:07,400 --> 01:34:11,360 Speaker 19: up a free kick. Not a great area for Sounders 1903 01:34:11,439 --> 01:34:14,120 Speaker 19: and rolled on on that left hand side for Minnesota 1904 01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:17,000 Speaker 19: far side. There left about thirty yards or so from 1905 01:34:17,040 --> 01:34:19,920 Speaker 19: the end line. Good chance for Minnesota and Perea to 1906 01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:22,680 Speaker 19: whip this ball in and the big men to get up. 1907 01:34:23,439 --> 01:34:25,080 Speaker 30: Yeah, you don't want to give away these fowls. This 1908 01:34:25,240 --> 01:34:28,679 Speaker 30: is thirty yards out left hand side. Just allows Minnesota 1909 01:34:28,720 --> 01:34:32,760 Speaker 30: to get numbers inside the box and unnecessary. 1910 01:34:32,920 --> 01:34:36,080 Speaker 29: That's the key right there too. Alex has him positionally 1911 01:34:36,160 --> 01:34:39,280 Speaker 29: in the right spot. He's goal side, so no need 1912 01:34:39,320 --> 01:34:40,240 Speaker 29: to foul at that moment. 1913 01:34:41,520 --> 01:34:44,280 Speaker 19: It's going to be a free kick for Perea. It 1914 01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:48,639 Speaker 19: is the left foot. The Argentinian man you mentioned scored 1915 01:34:49,560 --> 01:34:52,120 Speaker 19: a handful of goals in these last few weeks, scored 1916 01:34:52,160 --> 01:34:54,320 Speaker 19: against the Galaxy last week and then the week before 1917 01:34:54,320 --> 01:34:56,439 Speaker 19: against Sporting Kansas City now whips the ball in with 1918 01:34:56,479 --> 01:35:00,679 Speaker 19: this left football, bounce around, headed away by jack and Reagan. 1919 01:35:01,439 --> 01:35:04,040 Speaker 19: Good strong play by Jackson, but the balls picked up 1920 01:35:04,120 --> 01:35:06,640 Speaker 19: by Treants whips the ball on that six and then 1921 01:35:06,800 --> 01:35:10,160 Speaker 19: hacked away by Knew who on the near corner of 1922 01:35:10,200 --> 01:35:13,160 Speaker 19: the six yard box goes over the top of Stephan 1923 01:35:13,200 --> 01:35:15,080 Speaker 19: Fry's goal. Is gonna be a first corner kick for 1924 01:35:15,240 --> 01:35:15,960 Speaker 19: this second half. 1925 01:35:17,680 --> 01:35:20,640 Speaker 30: This all starts with a fowl right A fowl unnecessary. 1926 01:35:20,960 --> 01:35:24,440 Speaker 30: Now we've got a corner kick. It just allows Minnesota 1927 01:35:25,080 --> 01:35:28,720 Speaker 30: more opportunities. We've dodged a few chances from Minnesota, and 1928 01:35:28,920 --> 01:35:30,559 Speaker 30: you don't want to give a team like this too many. 1929 01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:32,800 Speaker 30: You don't want to give any team in MLS too 1930 01:35:32,840 --> 01:35:33,479 Speaker 30: many chances. 1931 01:35:34,000 --> 01:35:35,760 Speaker 19: It's gonna be a corner kick from their right hand side, 1932 01:35:35,840 --> 01:35:38,360 Speaker 19: left foot of Peree. It's gonna whip this ball in 1933 01:35:38,640 --> 01:35:42,000 Speaker 19: on top of Stephan Fry as the towels wave again, 1934 01:35:42,040 --> 01:35:44,400 Speaker 19: the scarves wave again, as the ball gets whipped in 1935 01:35:44,479 --> 01:35:47,640 Speaker 19: now towards the near post and at disappointing delivery by 1936 01:35:47,680 --> 01:35:50,840 Speaker 19: Perere on a Minnesota standpoint. Great corner kick from a 1937 01:35:50,880 --> 01:35:51,960 Speaker 19: Sounder standpoint. 1938 01:35:51,640 --> 01:35:55,519 Speaker 30: Absolutely gold kick the coal kick side netting. Yeah, that 1939 01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:59,000 Speaker 30: was not a good corner kick for Perea at all. 1940 01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:01,280 Speaker 19: He's got a good left foot, does the Argentinian man. 1941 01:36:01,320 --> 01:36:04,679 Speaker 19: As we mentioned six goals eleven assists on his campaign. 1942 01:36:05,560 --> 01:36:08,760 Speaker 19: Two goals, nine assists in the last game against the 1943 01:36:08,840 --> 01:36:11,720 Speaker 19: Sounders in August, so he's added onto It's piled onto 1944 01:36:11,800 --> 01:36:14,120 Speaker 19: that in the last eight weeks of the season. As 1945 01:36:14,160 --> 01:36:17,160 Speaker 19: the ball gets clipped forward by the Sounders, ball bouncing around, 1946 01:36:17,240 --> 01:36:19,519 Speaker 19: then calmed down by roll Don as he rolls the 1947 01:36:19,560 --> 01:36:21,600 Speaker 19: ball to this near side to Rothrock, He's going to 1948 01:36:21,840 --> 01:36:24,719 Speaker 19: skip forward, try to get past Rosales and Diaz around 1949 01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:27,400 Speaker 19: the corner. He goes well played by Rothrock, fights for 1950 01:36:27,479 --> 01:36:30,360 Speaker 19: the ball, eventually gets it ten yards from the end line, 1951 01:36:30,600 --> 01:36:32,840 Speaker 19: gets pushed over, no foul given by the referee and 1952 01:36:32,920 --> 01:36:36,200 Speaker 19: knew who's going to go clattering in and eventually he's 1953 01:36:36,280 --> 01:36:42,120 Speaker 19: calling a throw in or confusion. Rothrock on the ground, 1954 01:36:42,200 --> 01:36:45,120 Speaker 19: pulls himself up. Knew who having a go of colst 1955 01:36:45,120 --> 01:36:46,960 Speaker 19: doesn't need to do that. He's given away some silly 1956 01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:49,400 Speaker 19: yellow cards and red cards of the course of the 1957 01:36:49,560 --> 01:36:52,439 Speaker 19: second half of the season. These are calm down, dos Knew. 1958 01:36:52,439 --> 01:36:56,360 Speaker 19: Who's not an inexperienced player anymore, Pete and sometimes he 1959 01:36:57,120 --> 01:37:00,599 Speaker 19: he's just a move forward, get position. 1960 01:37:00,760 --> 01:37:02,400 Speaker 30: Yeah, and the last thing you want is you're outside 1961 01:37:02,479 --> 01:37:06,080 Speaker 30: left back getting a yellow card. It just gives your 1962 01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:07,880 Speaker 30: opponent a chance to go at him and try to 1963 01:37:07,880 --> 01:37:10,760 Speaker 30: get him into the red card situation. Seattle's said a 1964 01:37:10,840 --> 01:37:12,240 Speaker 30: few too many cards this season. 1965 01:37:13,920 --> 01:37:16,679 Speaker 19: Well, not fought by Yama. Four minutes into the second half. 1966 01:37:16,720 --> 01:37:19,080 Speaker 19: We'll get the lineup in just a moment. It comes 1967 01:37:19,200 --> 01:37:21,439 Speaker 19: loud as he clips the ball over Jackson Reagan. It's 1968 01:37:21,439 --> 01:37:23,240 Speaker 19: going to be a throw in for the Sounders. So 1969 01:37:24,200 --> 01:37:26,559 Speaker 19: Sounder's lineup for Barian Schmittz coming up for the second half. 1970 01:37:26,600 --> 01:37:29,760 Speaker 19: No changes, frying goal rolled down, Yemar Reagan new who 1971 01:37:29,800 --> 01:37:32,880 Speaker 19: are you back? Four obed alongside Christian in the center 1972 01:37:32,920 --> 01:37:36,639 Speaker 19: of the park. Yesus, Albert Paul Rothrock are you attacking 1973 01:37:36,720 --> 01:37:40,280 Speaker 19: three that sit behind Jordan Morris up front. Five goals 1974 01:37:40,320 --> 01:37:44,360 Speaker 19: to assist on his campaign broken campaign somewhat by injury, 1975 01:37:44,479 --> 01:37:47,560 Speaker 19: But is he going to find his best form for 1976 01:37:47,680 --> 01:37:50,719 Speaker 19: the Sounders in these final critical stages of the season. 1977 01:37:50,840 --> 01:37:53,280 Speaker 19: The ball gets clipped down the line. Here comes Jordan 1978 01:37:53,360 --> 01:37:56,120 Speaker 19: now outpaces Diaz on the left hand side, sixteen yards 1979 01:37:56,160 --> 01:37:58,840 Speaker 19: from the end line left channel. Tries to skip by 1980 01:37:58,880 --> 01:38:01,160 Speaker 19: Diaz towards the enlighty go outside the right foot. Ball 1981 01:38:01,240 --> 01:38:05,040 Speaker 19: bounces around nobody there. It's cleaned up by Mark and 1982 01:38:05,120 --> 01:38:07,280 Speaker 19: Nick and then clips the ball on but poor clearance 1983 01:38:07,360 --> 01:38:11,200 Speaker 19: by the Minnesota left back as the Sounders pick it up, 1984 01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:15,200 Speaker 19: ball into Ferrara dropped off first time to Christian ros 1985 01:38:15,240 --> 01:38:17,240 Speaker 19: Neck to his right. Ball goes into Ferrara, tries to 1986 01:38:17,280 --> 01:38:19,800 Speaker 19: find Jordan Morris inside the eighteen yard box cleared by 1987 01:38:19,800 --> 01:38:23,920 Speaker 19: a Minnesota A little loose on the pass picked up 1988 01:38:23,960 --> 01:38:26,200 Speaker 19: by the Sounders and then Obed tries to bring it down. 1989 01:38:26,280 --> 01:38:28,559 Speaker 19: Isn't able to do so. As a good ball down 1990 01:38:28,640 --> 01:38:31,719 Speaker 19: the line and springs Long One a clear right corner 1991 01:38:31,760 --> 01:38:33,800 Speaker 19: of the box. The Sounds retreat as Long one he 1992 01:38:34,280 --> 01:38:39,719 Speaker 19: skips the ground and then plays it unnecessarily in some ways. 1993 01:38:40,080 --> 01:38:42,120 Speaker 19: Just nobody there just kind of gave the ball away 1994 01:38:42,160 --> 01:38:44,840 Speaker 19: and then Jackson sticks New and a bit of spot 1995 01:38:44,880 --> 01:38:46,599 Speaker 19: of bother on this left hand side, but he's able 1996 01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:48,920 Speaker 19: to knock it off. The Minnesota man goes over this 1997 01:38:49,000 --> 01:38:50,559 Speaker 19: near sign for a Sounder's thrown. 1998 01:38:51,040 --> 01:38:53,920 Speaker 30: Terrific ball to break open for Seattle. Christian all done. 1999 01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:57,840 Speaker 30: Jordan Morris's wide left gets goes and takes and we 2000 01:38:57,920 --> 01:38:59,559 Speaker 30: all know that he's going to take him on, take 2001 01:38:59,600 --> 01:39:01,240 Speaker 30: him on, goes to the end light. We've got to 2002 01:39:01,240 --> 01:39:03,479 Speaker 30: get numbers through the box. We had Ferrara at the 2003 01:39:03,520 --> 01:39:06,559 Speaker 30: near post, but that was it. We didn't have any trailers. 2004 01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:09,840 Speaker 30: You want to see Albert Rusnak, he's done well to 2005 01:39:09,960 --> 01:39:12,200 Speaker 30: get in for that cutback at the penalty spot. 2006 01:39:12,200 --> 01:39:17,840 Speaker 19: Long throw by Roth. Minnesota fans not appreciating the fact 2007 01:39:17,840 --> 01:39:21,519 Speaker 19: that sound has just taking their foot on the ball, 2008 01:39:21,600 --> 01:39:24,360 Speaker 19: taking their time, trying to manage the game somewhat. Of course, 2009 01:39:24,400 --> 01:39:28,000 Speaker 19: the experience of the Sounders in these situations is way 2010 01:39:28,080 --> 01:39:31,800 Speaker 19: above what Minnesota have. As you mentioned fourth position this year, 2011 01:39:31,840 --> 01:39:34,400 Speaker 19: they're best finished as an MLS franchise. As the ball 2012 01:39:34,479 --> 01:39:38,080 Speaker 19: is headed forward by New and then hooked forward by 2013 01:39:38,320 --> 01:39:39,800 Speaker 19: rolled on. Once in a while, you have to clear 2014 01:39:39,920 --> 01:39:43,439 Speaker 19: lines and the sounders can chase, and it's awkwardly cleared 2015 01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:46,479 Speaker 19: by I think it's boxel brought down really well by 2016 01:39:46,640 --> 01:39:50,040 Speaker 19: Rosales under pressure is able to skip down the line, 2017 01:39:51,760 --> 01:39:53,400 Speaker 19: all down the line towards long one and the little 2018 01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:56,840 Speaker 19: nudge in the bat by Yemar all goes down this 2019 01:39:57,000 --> 01:39:58,720 Speaker 19: near side and we're just got to wait to see 2020 01:39:58,720 --> 01:40:00,439 Speaker 19: if the referee gives up a foul on one A 2021 01:40:01,280 --> 01:40:04,439 Speaker 19: it's on his response does not see the free kick. 2022 01:40:04,560 --> 01:40:07,599 Speaker 19: Fans again up in arms. I think the players are 2023 01:40:07,600 --> 01:40:09,719 Speaker 19: gonna surround the referee and it's a couple of times 2024 01:40:09,800 --> 01:40:13,000 Speaker 19: now they're saying it's a push by Yama, it's outside 2025 01:40:13,040 --> 01:40:16,439 Speaker 19: the box. But again it just a stronger body of Yama. 2026 01:40:17,439 --> 01:40:19,160 Speaker 19: It's gonna be a thrown on this near side. 2027 01:40:19,920 --> 01:40:22,120 Speaker 29: I think Minnesota views it as he went through his back. 2028 01:40:22,640 --> 01:40:24,920 Speaker 30: It was we were going to say it's more shoulder 2029 01:40:24,960 --> 01:40:27,400 Speaker 30: to shoulder, but Minnesota's gonna say it came through the 2030 01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:28,200 Speaker 30: back of them. 2031 01:40:28,400 --> 01:40:29,920 Speaker 19: Yeah, we'll get you the line up for Minnesota in 2032 01:40:30,080 --> 01:40:32,240 Speaker 19: just a moment. As the sound has come forward on 2033 01:40:32,280 --> 01:40:34,720 Speaker 19: the far side the right with Yemar across the halfway line. 2034 01:40:34,760 --> 01:40:37,479 Speaker 19: He goes in the foot of Alex Now he's just 2035 01:40:37,560 --> 01:40:40,920 Speaker 19: for hugging the far touch line. Jordan Morris just working 2036 01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:44,240 Speaker 19: through about three big center backs. He's got a lot 2037 01:40:44,320 --> 01:40:47,120 Speaker 19: to contend with. Can he find some space in the 2038 01:40:47,160 --> 01:40:50,920 Speaker 19: transition maybe where his best chance will come from. So 2039 01:40:51,000 --> 01:40:53,639 Speaker 19: let's get you. Eric Rams' team coming out Sainclaaring Gold 2040 01:40:53,720 --> 01:40:58,439 Speaker 19: Diaz box, Will Romero your central three. It's Rossultz on 2041 01:40:58,479 --> 01:41:01,120 Speaker 19: the right, market Nick on the left, Triantis Trapp in 2042 01:41:01,160 --> 01:41:05,040 Speaker 19: the middle, with lud Perea and long one A in front. 2043 01:41:06,240 --> 01:41:09,280 Speaker 19: Eleven men behind the ball. Four Minnesota. That'll be very comfortable. 2044 01:41:09,320 --> 01:41:14,000 Speaker 19: As we've mentioned, forty percent possession this season, the lowest 2045 01:41:14,040 --> 01:41:16,719 Speaker 19: average of an MLS team in history. You can believe 2046 01:41:16,760 --> 01:41:18,080 Speaker 19: that this is. 2047 01:41:18,080 --> 01:41:20,360 Speaker 30: What I remember from Minnesota right now. Now it's the 2048 01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:22,839 Speaker 30: five across the back. They've shifted back into. 2049 01:41:22,680 --> 01:41:25,400 Speaker 29: Air, their old style that has worked for them and 2050 01:41:25,479 --> 01:41:26,360 Speaker 29: worked against the sounder. 2051 01:41:26,479 --> 01:41:28,200 Speaker 19: Just amazing how it works out. It's bang on sixty 2052 01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:30,479 Speaker 19: percent sounds possession. Paul goes in now, sounds have a 2053 01:41:30,560 --> 01:41:32,720 Speaker 19: chance top of the box of Christian Well DoD strikes it. 2054 01:41:32,960 --> 01:41:36,720 Speaker 19: It's a good save by Sinclair eighteen yards out on 2055 01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:39,639 Speaker 19: the left foot, try to find the corner to Christian 2056 01:41:40,040 --> 01:41:42,360 Speaker 19: and it was a flying save by Sinclair. Puts it 2057 01:41:42,400 --> 01:41:45,760 Speaker 19: around the corner, over the end line, corner kick nil nil, 2058 01:41:46,200 --> 01:41:48,880 Speaker 19: But good play by the sound is perfectly. 2059 01:41:48,479 --> 01:41:52,880 Speaker 30: Weighted ball from Albert Rusnik Sinclair. Good for him because 2060 01:41:52,880 --> 01:41:55,640 Speaker 30: he was a little bit blocked on that shot by 2061 01:41:57,080 --> 01:42:01,720 Speaker 30: the center back. Good reactionary said if Rothrock, I think 2062 01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:02,679 Speaker 30: one of the ball as well. 2063 01:42:03,920 --> 01:42:05,000 Speaker 29: Good build up from Seattle. 2064 01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:07,160 Speaker 19: Third shot on goal for the Sounders, forced to save 2065 01:42:07,240 --> 01:42:12,320 Speaker 19: Bonnie Sinclair corner kick. White foot ball goes down head 2066 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:15,920 Speaker 19: off the long line. He's asking for a handball, the 2067 01:42:16,000 --> 01:42:19,400 Speaker 19: referees giving a foul maybe on the initial header by Yamar. 2068 01:42:21,520 --> 01:42:24,559 Speaker 19: I think Jordan Morris is asking for the handball. He's 2069 01:42:24,600 --> 01:42:27,240 Speaker 19: already called the foul. Not sure if you can review 2070 01:42:27,360 --> 01:42:29,840 Speaker 19: that one with the foul given on a Sounders player, 2071 01:42:31,520 --> 01:42:34,800 Speaker 19: unless it's so much evidence that it's not a foul, 2072 01:42:34,880 --> 01:42:37,200 Speaker 19: then the argument of the handball off the goal line 2073 01:42:37,240 --> 01:42:40,080 Speaker 19: from a Jordan Morris header, it's probably not gonna stand 2074 01:42:41,040 --> 01:42:41,960 Speaker 19: and we'll see this replay. 2075 01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:47,599 Speaker 29: Hippie, I don't think it's on Yamar. 2076 01:42:47,760 --> 01:42:51,759 Speaker 30: Might be on Rothrock, Yeah, knocking a player to the ground, 2077 01:42:51,880 --> 01:42:53,040 Speaker 30: knocking Boxel. 2078 01:42:52,680 --> 01:42:53,160 Speaker 29: To the ground. 2079 01:42:53,160 --> 01:42:55,360 Speaker 19: Eye you know, is going to be a lot stronger 2080 01:42:55,400 --> 01:42:57,360 Speaker 19: than that, doesn't That's not much of a foul. 2081 01:42:59,400 --> 01:43:04,160 Speaker 30: It's certainly the amar rough rock clatters into Boxel, but 2082 01:43:04,240 --> 01:43:05,599 Speaker 30: Boxell goes down very easily. 2083 01:43:06,479 --> 01:43:09,080 Speaker 19: It's gonna be a free kick launched forward by Sinclair, 2084 01:43:09,160 --> 01:43:11,880 Speaker 19: well won by Christian Waldine, who continues to look so 2085 01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:15,519 Speaker 19: dominant in the air at times. For such a for 2086 01:43:15,600 --> 01:43:18,880 Speaker 19: a player of his stature and his fair shriff headers, 2087 01:43:19,720 --> 01:43:23,080 Speaker 19: it's gonna be a foul. Things have heated in Minnesota. 2088 01:43:23,360 --> 01:43:26,200 Speaker 30: Things have heated up a bit, both especially for Seattle. 2089 01:43:26,360 --> 01:43:28,599 Speaker 30: A couple of good opportunities in the run of play 2090 01:43:29,000 --> 01:43:29,920 Speaker 30: and on the free kick. 2091 01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:33,600 Speaker 19: Yep, ten minute's gone in this second half, nil nil Minnesota, 2092 01:43:33,920 --> 01:43:36,920 Speaker 19: Sounders Sports Radio nine to fifty k AM.

Top of the box is Knew 2112 01:44:38,640 --> 01:44:41,320 Speaker 19: who twenty five yards, not getting closed down, but he 2113 01:44:41,360 --> 01:44:43,840 Speaker 19: plays the ball short to Rothrock, left corner of the 2114 01:44:43,840 --> 01:44:46,960 Speaker 19: eighteen yard box, tracked by Rosales, has to go back. 2115 01:44:47,080 --> 01:44:50,320 Speaker 19: Nothing forward now Reagan to new who left hand side. 2116 01:44:50,680 --> 01:44:53,080 Speaker 19: Sander's looking for an opening to test Saint Claire again. 2117 01:44:53,120 --> 01:44:57,000 Speaker 19: They've already forced a good save out of the MLS 2118 01:44:57,320 --> 01:44:59,680 Speaker 19: Goalkeeper of the Year candidate, most likely one of the 2119 01:44:59,720 --> 01:45:04,320 Speaker 19: faith It's for sure. Can the Sounders eke out a 2120 01:45:04,520 --> 01:45:07,200 Speaker 19: result whatever happens, we'll not go off the air until 2121 01:45:07,200 --> 01:45:09,840 Speaker 19: as a winner will either be in the ninety minutes 2122 01:45:09,920 --> 01:45:12,080 Speaker 19: or be to PK's or go straight to PKS if 2123 01:45:12,160 --> 01:45:16,400 Speaker 19: it's a draw after ninety Sounders, as we mentioned, the 2124 01:45:16,479 --> 01:45:20,000 Speaker 19: first half succeeded last year in penalty shootouts in the 2125 01:45:20,040 --> 01:45:23,400 Speaker 19: first and second game, coming out victorious against Houston. It 2126 01:45:23,479 --> 01:45:24,840 Speaker 19: was a nil nil, then it was a one to 2127 01:45:24,960 --> 01:45:28,920 Speaker 19: one when they got the victories from PKS before moving 2128 01:45:29,000 --> 01:45:32,280 Speaker 19: forward to play l EFC and eventually losing to the 2129 01:45:32,400 --> 01:45:35,040 Speaker 19: champions of the Galaxy. The ball goes in right hand 2130 01:45:35,080 --> 01:45:36,720 Speaker 19: side of the Eachen yard box. Ball back to o 2131 01:45:36,880 --> 01:45:39,720 Speaker 19: Bed from Alex. Now outside of the eating yard box, 2132 01:45:39,760 --> 01:45:42,479 Speaker 19: he goes. He has it, plays the ball in square, look, 2133 01:45:42,479 --> 01:45:44,880 Speaker 19: give and go with Christian towards the end line is obed, 2134 01:45:44,920 --> 01:45:48,080 Speaker 19: whips it in nobody there can't find a green shirt 2135 01:45:48,800 --> 01:45:51,640 Speaker 19: put clear by Mark Nick. The ball bounces awkwardly for 2136 01:45:51,800 --> 01:45:54,360 Speaker 19: Jackson and then his big six foot five frame just 2137 01:45:54,439 --> 01:45:56,560 Speaker 19: beats long one a to it finds rolled on the 2138 01:45:56,640 --> 01:45:58,280 Speaker 19: Sounders Pete fewing come. 2139 01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:00,559 Speaker 30: Again, Well, teams are playing the way they like to play. 2140 01:46:00,600 --> 01:46:03,519 Speaker 30: Seattle possession, build up, try to break a team down. 2141 01:46:03,960 --> 01:46:07,639 Speaker 30: And the width of the eighteen has five Minnesota players 2142 01:46:08,360 --> 01:46:10,720 Speaker 30: dotted straight across it with three in front of them. 2143 01:46:10,880 --> 01:46:13,080 Speaker 30: So each team's playing the way they like to play 2144 01:46:13,080 --> 01:46:14,960 Speaker 30: into their strength. It's what put them in the playoffs. 2145 01:46:15,479 --> 01:46:18,240 Speaker 30: See who can impose their will and do it the 2146 01:46:18,280 --> 01:46:20,760 Speaker 30: way they want get some success out of it. So 2147 01:46:20,920 --> 01:46:26,400 Speaker 30: Seattle is in a good spot right now, having good 2148 01:46:26,439 --> 01:46:28,280 Speaker 30: possession of the ball, and we've been. 2149 01:46:28,320 --> 01:46:30,880 Speaker 29: In Minnesota's defensive third. 2150 01:46:32,200 --> 01:46:34,320 Speaker 30: Let's see where thirteen minutes in, we've been in their 2151 01:46:34,760 --> 01:46:39,560 Speaker 30: defensive third for probably ten of those minutes. But you know, 2152 01:46:39,640 --> 01:46:41,280 Speaker 30: when you play against a team that puts five at 2153 01:46:41,320 --> 01:46:43,439 Speaker 30: the back end, you've got to get something out of it, right, 2154 01:46:43,520 --> 01:46:44,960 Speaker 30: You've got to break them down. You've got to get 2155 01:46:45,000 --> 01:46:47,200 Speaker 30: your shot, whether it's pull them out a little bit, 2156 01:46:47,479 --> 01:46:49,639 Speaker 30: take your shots from the edge of the box, try 2157 01:46:49,680 --> 01:46:50,200 Speaker 30: to slip it one. 2158 01:46:50,280 --> 01:46:54,360 Speaker 19: Two rolled down throws in long throw towards the corner 2159 01:46:54,400 --> 01:46:58,160 Speaker 19: to six played by Minnesota's headed back by rolled on 2160 01:46:58,320 --> 01:47:00,120 Speaker 19: tries to find a russneck cleared by a minute, so 2161 01:47:00,240 --> 01:47:02,720 Speaker 19: it goes out the far side. We've already had a 2162 01:47:02,880 --> 01:47:08,040 Speaker 19: save by Saint Clair number one in save percentage Pete 2163 01:47:09,200 --> 01:47:10,439 Speaker 19: in MLS this year. 2164 01:47:11,320 --> 01:47:15,519 Speaker 29: Good for him, it's going to be number one in 2165 01:47:15,640 --> 01:47:16,440 Speaker 29: save percentage. 2166 01:47:16,640 --> 01:47:20,840 Speaker 19: Yes, I'm assuming into your homework. Now we'll figure out 2167 01:47:20,880 --> 01:47:21,320 Speaker 19: where that was. 2168 01:47:21,640 --> 01:47:23,679 Speaker 29: Thank you. We should have talked about. 2169 01:47:23,479 --> 01:47:25,479 Speaker 19: To set you up for that one. It come the 2170 01:47:25,560 --> 01:47:28,519 Speaker 19: Sounders now with Vargas gets clipped right in front of 2171 01:47:28,520 --> 01:47:31,639 Speaker 19: the referee. It's an easy call to make from the referee. 2172 01:47:31,680 --> 01:47:32,960 Speaker 19: So it's gonna be a bit further out than we 2173 01:47:33,080 --> 01:47:35,240 Speaker 19: initially thought. It felt like as we're twenty five and 2174 01:47:35,280 --> 01:47:39,120 Speaker 19: now it's more like twenty eight thirty. But it's left 2175 01:47:39,160 --> 01:47:43,120 Speaker 19: of center and a chance potentially to test sink Clair 2176 01:47:43,200 --> 01:47:47,120 Speaker 19: from distance. But we'll see what the Sounders do here. 2177 01:47:47,160 --> 01:47:48,920 Speaker 19: We'll see what Andy Rose has up his sleeve. 2178 01:47:49,560 --> 01:47:53,040 Speaker 30: So here's what I surmise, save percentage. You've faced a 2179 01:47:53,080 --> 01:47:57,120 Speaker 30: lot of shots. You have had the most success of 2180 01:47:57,400 --> 01:47:59,800 Speaker 30: any goalkeeper in that percentage. 2181 01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:05,120 Speaker 19: Yes, that's exactly what we'll take that. We'll take that. 2182 01:48:06,360 --> 01:48:08,600 Speaker 29: Hopefully chance Franking. 2183 01:48:09,760 --> 01:48:12,599 Speaker 19: He can break up the game. Yeah, he and Jackson, Yeah, 2184 01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:16,759 Speaker 19: far more intelligent than we are. Yeah, Well it comes 2185 01:48:17,960 --> 01:48:20,640 Speaker 19: in the Minnesota's wall, a three man wall, kind of 2186 01:48:20,720 --> 01:48:22,639 Speaker 19: laughing at the distance of which the referee is lined 2187 01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:26,280 Speaker 19: was sworn up. We'll see what Rosneck has Now, he's 2188 01:48:26,320 --> 01:48:28,040 Speaker 19: got a good angle to whip it in with his 2189 01:48:28,160 --> 01:48:30,160 Speaker 19: right foot. He's gonna be low and flat and just 2190 01:48:30,240 --> 01:48:32,599 Speaker 19: try to bounce it in front of St. Claire here 2191 01:48:33,320 --> 01:48:36,559 Speaker 19: as he steps up back four drops to the penalty spot. 2192 01:48:36,600 --> 01:48:38,200 Speaker 19: Now they step up again. Now it's gonna be whipped 2193 01:48:38,200 --> 01:48:39,600 Speaker 19: and he tries to go to the near post and 2194 01:48:39,720 --> 01:48:43,400 Speaker 19: catch out Saint Clair, but it bangs off. Long one 2195 01:48:43,439 --> 01:48:45,320 Speaker 19: a in the wall goes down this near side for 2196 01:48:45,400 --> 01:48:47,040 Speaker 19: a throw in again. 2197 01:48:47,120 --> 01:48:51,240 Speaker 30: Long Wani is everywhere right, He's in every plate, covering 2198 01:48:51,240 --> 01:48:54,120 Speaker 30: a lot of ground breaking things up, getting things started. 2199 01:48:55,080 --> 01:48:57,280 Speaker 19: Come the Sounders. No changes so far for the Sounders. 2200 01:48:57,400 --> 01:49:01,280 Speaker 19: We get here in the sixtieth minute, nil nil sound Minnesota. 2201 01:49:03,080 --> 01:49:03,240 Speaker 2: Came. 2202 01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:05,240 Speaker 19: I mentioned a week from today will be the second 2203 01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:07,360 Speaker 19: game at Loomin Field. I'll be the only game in 2204 01:49:07,400 --> 01:49:10,160 Speaker 19: this first series for the Sounders. We hope there's going 2205 01:49:10,240 --> 01:49:11,800 Speaker 19: to be the last game of the series if they 2206 01:49:11,880 --> 01:49:14,760 Speaker 19: can find a way to sneak out a win here 2207 01:49:15,840 --> 01:49:17,960 Speaker 19: and then go home and take care of business. You 2208 01:49:18,000 --> 01:49:19,360 Speaker 19: know they'll have a lot of the ball next week 2209 01:49:19,360 --> 01:49:22,679 Speaker 19: because they've had already this evening with sixty two percent possession. 2210 01:49:22,720 --> 01:49:24,080 Speaker 19: Here comes for our and now I've got some time 2211 01:49:24,160 --> 01:49:27,040 Speaker 19: to deliver the ball in doesn't go out, White stops. 2212 01:49:27,080 --> 01:49:30,800 Speaker 19: It feels like when you've got that half yard to 2213 01:49:30,840 --> 01:49:32,519 Speaker 19: whip the ball in, may need to do it if 2214 01:49:32,560 --> 01:49:34,200 Speaker 19: you got a chance. As we get eleven men behind 2215 01:49:34,200 --> 01:49:36,240 Speaker 19: the ball, but well played by Christian picks the ball 2216 01:49:36,280 --> 01:49:37,479 Speaker 19: up on the right hand side, it rolls out to 2217 01:49:37,600 --> 01:49:40,559 Speaker 19: brother Alex. Good delivery and rothrock head certainly goes wide 2218 01:49:41,360 --> 01:49:43,840 Speaker 19: and referees calling a foul again. I think on roth 2219 01:49:43,960 --> 01:49:46,519 Speaker 19: Rock ause you try to fight for space against Rosale, 2220 01:49:46,560 --> 01:49:49,439 Speaker 19: it's going to be free kick for Minnesota. Neil nil 2221 01:49:49,600 --> 01:49:50,800 Speaker 19: peep hearing well. 2222 01:49:50,840 --> 01:49:53,240 Speaker 29: I like the quality of the cross. We've just got 2223 01:49:53,320 --> 01:49:54,360 Speaker 29: to make sure we get on the end of it. 2224 01:49:54,400 --> 01:49:57,800 Speaker 30: We got to get in front of our opponents, whether 2225 01:49:57,880 --> 01:49:59,800 Speaker 30: it's the goalkeeper making that slashing runn of the New 2226 01:49:59,840 --> 01:50:02,120 Speaker 30: York The one thing we haven't seen is getting right 2227 01:50:02,200 --> 01:50:05,240 Speaker 30: to the end line slashing runs and then a trailing 2228 01:50:05,320 --> 01:50:08,759 Speaker 30: run that has been successful for the Sounders. Albert Rousnook 2229 01:50:08,800 --> 01:50:11,599 Speaker 30: in particular making that late run. So if we get 2230 01:50:11,600 --> 01:50:13,920 Speaker 30: a little bit for a variety. When a team does 2231 01:50:14,000 --> 01:50:16,599 Speaker 30: what they're doing, you can get lulled into just trying 2232 01:50:16,640 --> 01:50:17,880 Speaker 30: to Okay, I'll get my cross in. 2233 01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:18,840 Speaker 29: I'll get my cross in. 2234 01:50:18,920 --> 01:50:21,360 Speaker 30: But there's so many numbers in the Minnesota box that 2235 01:50:21,400 --> 01:50:22,360 Speaker 30: it makes it very difficult. 2236 01:50:22,400 --> 01:50:25,960 Speaker 19: From Seattle ball launch long trapped by Yea. Mark doesn't 2237 01:50:26,000 --> 01:50:28,599 Speaker 19: take any chance. He just hooks it clear, good tests 2238 01:50:28,640 --> 01:50:31,599 Speaker 19: of his hammy right there. Its picks up by Perea, 2239 01:50:32,280 --> 01:50:34,720 Speaker 19: good track him by New just flyes the ground and 2240 01:50:34,880 --> 01:50:37,519 Speaker 19: clears his lines. Maybe a chance to bring it down, 2241 01:50:37,640 --> 01:50:40,519 Speaker 19: control the ball and pass it out, but that's not 2242 01:50:40,680 --> 01:50:42,200 Speaker 19: New who no, no. 2243 01:50:42,439 --> 01:50:42,960 Speaker 29: He likes to. 2244 01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:47,360 Speaker 19: It's always a little bit dramatic with him out boot 2245 01:50:47,400 --> 01:50:49,240 Speaker 19: it out. He's effective for sure. One of the still 2246 01:50:49,280 --> 01:50:51,120 Speaker 19: on the best one v one defenders in MLS. Has 2247 01:50:51,160 --> 01:50:53,240 Speaker 19: been a great servant for the club over two hundred 2248 01:50:53,240 --> 01:50:55,880 Speaker 19: and fifty games. Of course, for the Sounders, it feels 2249 01:50:55,920 --> 01:50:59,559 Speaker 19: like it's just crept up on us starting to coma 2250 01:50:59,600 --> 01:51:02,800 Speaker 19: with the fiance. Raither one of those players it just 2251 01:51:02,880 --> 01:51:04,240 Speaker 19: worked himself through the system. 2252 01:51:05,040 --> 01:51:07,000 Speaker 29: I remember one of the staff member seeing you should 2253 01:51:07,000 --> 01:51:07,320 Speaker 29: look at. 2254 01:51:07,240 --> 01:51:10,160 Speaker 19: This guy for Seattle you long throw by boxhol near 2255 01:51:10,240 --> 01:51:13,240 Speaker 19: corner of this six naars that man again Christian rolled 2256 01:51:13,280 --> 01:51:15,000 Speaker 19: on and then just Roth Rochers doing a little bit 2257 01:51:15,080 --> 01:51:17,920 Speaker 19: too much. They're getting caught with the ball as Morris 2258 01:51:17,960 --> 01:51:21,400 Speaker 19: comes across, picked up by Triantis the right corner of 2259 01:51:21,439 --> 01:51:24,639 Speaker 19: the eighteen flick forward by Perea, track well by Reagan 2260 01:51:24,720 --> 01:51:27,120 Speaker 19: just needs to control the situation, doesn't do a great job. 2261 01:51:27,200 --> 01:51:30,320 Speaker 19: Ball in cleared eventually by rolled on. It's been caught 2262 01:51:30,320 --> 01:51:33,040 Speaker 19: a couple of times as Jackson just indecision in and 2263 01:51:33,080 --> 01:51:35,240 Speaker 19: around that six yard box. Sounders get away with it. 2264 01:51:35,720 --> 01:51:39,360 Speaker 19: This nearside the right is Rozales four Minnesota to Perey, 2265 01:51:39,360 --> 01:51:41,280 Speaker 19: who's starting to get his foot in the ball and 2266 01:51:41,439 --> 01:51:43,120 Speaker 19: dictate some things in the middle of the park just 2267 01:51:43,200 --> 01:51:45,200 Speaker 19: to play the ball inside a track well by Christian. 2268 01:51:45,240 --> 01:51:47,800 Speaker 19: You're not gonna catch out Christian there and eventually he 2269 01:51:47,880 --> 01:51:51,000 Speaker 19: goes to ground. Is there an advantage, almost gets pulled 2270 01:51:51,040 --> 01:51:53,559 Speaker 19: down by Morris, eventually gets pulled back or see if 2271 01:51:53,560 --> 01:51:56,439 Speaker 19: it's on rolled or Morris, it's gonna be a yellow 2272 01:51:56,560 --> 01:51:59,720 Speaker 19: card or cynical foul. Inside the sound is half of 2273 01:51:59,720 --> 01:52:02,160 Speaker 19: the feet on Bouxail, so it's a little bit of 2274 01:52:02,200 --> 01:52:05,280 Speaker 19: pressure on the New Zealander now as he plays against 2275 01:52:05,880 --> 01:52:08,240 Speaker 19: Jordan Morris, is he just yanks down Jordan in the 2276 01:52:08,240 --> 01:52:09,600 Speaker 19: middle of the park. Let go? 2277 01:52:09,800 --> 01:52:10,400 Speaker 7: But it was the. 2278 01:52:12,320 --> 01:52:13,439 Speaker 19: Thought that counts, as they say. 2279 01:52:13,479 --> 01:52:16,120 Speaker 29: Yeah, I think that was probably a smart play from boxall. 2280 01:52:16,200 --> 01:52:18,200 Speaker 30: We saw Jordan Morris a moment ago on the right 2281 01:52:18,280 --> 01:52:21,719 Speaker 30: hand side, just shift gears and quickly go right past 2282 01:52:21,840 --> 01:52:24,719 Speaker 30: one of the Minnesota defenders. So middle of the park, 2283 01:52:25,360 --> 01:52:27,400 Speaker 30: slow it down, just as Obid did. But he did 2284 01:52:27,400 --> 01:52:29,120 Speaker 30: a little too much against the yellow cart. 2285 01:52:29,160 --> 01:52:30,960 Speaker 19: I know Sound has been guilty that in years past, 2286 01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:32,800 Speaker 19: where they haven't been cynical enough in the middle of 2287 01:52:32,800 --> 01:52:34,479 Speaker 19: the park. I remember playing against Portland a number of 2288 01:52:34,520 --> 01:52:37,000 Speaker 19: times and pauland get on those counters and we had 2289 01:52:37,040 --> 01:52:39,200 Speaker 19: the chance to pull guys back inside out half of 2290 01:52:39,240 --> 01:52:41,160 Speaker 19: the field. We didn't. We let them go and it 2291 01:52:41,320 --> 01:52:43,559 Speaker 19: costs us. I know Brian Schmitzer pulled that up often 2292 01:52:43,640 --> 01:52:45,679 Speaker 19: in his post game. They have to be more ruthless 2293 01:52:45,720 --> 01:52:49,439 Speaker 19: and cynical, something that I think the Sounders learned from 2294 01:52:49,479 --> 01:52:51,000 Speaker 19: in Club walk up with some of those kind of 2295 01:52:51,080 --> 01:52:54,679 Speaker 19: dark hearts during against some of the top teams in Europe. 2296 01:52:55,479 --> 01:52:57,760 Speaker 19: And it's the small things that count at times. 2297 01:52:57,640 --> 01:53:00,800 Speaker 29: I'd say obed learn that learned it as well as anybody. Yeah, 2298 01:53:00,880 --> 01:53:02,839 Speaker 29: from that experience, it's. 2299 01:53:02,640 --> 01:53:04,400 Speaker 19: A good chance to play against those top teams at 2300 01:53:04,439 --> 01:53:06,080 Speaker 19: such a young age. You can put that into his 2301 01:53:06,880 --> 01:53:09,720 Speaker 19: toolbox and only something will help him in time. As 2302 01:53:10,160 --> 01:53:12,080 Speaker 19: whips the ball in with that strong right foot, he's 2303 01:53:12,720 --> 01:53:15,360 Speaker 19: a big right foot, does triants as he whips the 2304 01:53:15,400 --> 01:53:17,680 Speaker 19: ball in clear by the Sounders, challenged by box all 2305 01:53:17,680 --> 01:53:23,439 Speaker 19: against Marris wins the header headed forward by Rothrock Minnesota 2306 01:53:23,479 --> 01:53:24,680 Speaker 19: to come away with it. So let's get you the 2307 01:53:24,840 --> 01:53:31,000 Speaker 19: Sounder's bench, Belle Mussovski, Thomas and goll Joo, Paolo Reed, Baker, Whiting, Laver, 2308 01:53:31,520 --> 01:53:35,920 Speaker 19: Georgie Kilaney, Ozaz So we've got some firepower coming off 2309 01:53:35,960 --> 01:53:39,400 Speaker 19: the bench. Georgie will definitely be an option on the outside. 2310 01:53:40,160 --> 01:53:42,639 Speaker 19: Labor can stabilize the middle. Of course, we've seen Red 2311 01:53:42,680 --> 01:53:45,880 Speaker 19: come in on the outside as well if needed. Ozazi 2312 01:53:45,960 --> 01:53:50,840 Speaker 19: had a great running League's Cup. As Yemar goes down, 2313 01:53:50,960 --> 01:53:53,400 Speaker 19: has a stretch and I think we all kind of 2314 01:53:53,800 --> 01:53:56,840 Speaker 19: hold our breath when he stretches for those balls with 2315 01:53:57,000 --> 01:53:59,719 Speaker 19: those hamstrings that have caused me a couple of issues 2316 01:53:59,760 --> 01:54:00,360 Speaker 19: this season. 2317 01:54:01,800 --> 01:54:03,800 Speaker 30: It looked a little awkward the way he went down. 2318 01:54:04,439 --> 01:54:06,880 Speaker 30: You want to tell you Massovski fourteen goals. He can 2319 01:54:06,960 --> 01:54:09,519 Speaker 30: come off the bench and I'm sure he would love 2320 01:54:09,600 --> 01:54:11,840 Speaker 30: the opportunity to get back on the scoring sheet so 2321 01:54:12,479 --> 01:54:16,040 Speaker 30: as ase as well as a dangerous player. I don't 2322 01:54:16,080 --> 01:54:19,360 Speaker 30: think we've ever had two forwards on the bench who 2323 01:54:19,439 --> 01:54:21,920 Speaker 30: can come in and score like these two. 2324 01:54:22,120 --> 01:54:25,200 Speaker 19: Both they've done it in different times when needed. You 2325 01:54:25,280 --> 01:54:29,639 Speaker 19: mentioned Danny Masovski career year sixteen goals or competitions fourteen 2326 01:54:31,200 --> 01:54:34,680 Speaker 19: in MLS. And it comes box on now long throwing 2327 01:54:34,720 --> 01:54:37,480 Speaker 19: again as the scars wave against, the ball flicks around 2328 01:54:37,920 --> 01:54:38,640 Speaker 19: just wide. 2329 01:54:40,320 --> 01:54:40,760 Speaker 7: That was. 2330 01:54:42,400 --> 01:54:45,600 Speaker 19: A nervous moment for the Sounders. It is wide. It 2331 01:54:45,720 --> 01:54:47,240 Speaker 19: is a corner kick, came off the head. I think 2332 01:54:47,240 --> 01:54:51,440 Speaker 19: it was a roll down. It's nil nil, A close 2333 01:54:51,520 --> 01:54:56,120 Speaker 19: shave for the Sounders. Eventually came off. Actually, Alex says 2334 01:54:56,240 --> 01:54:58,600 Speaker 19: Christy went up, missed the header and it came off 2335 01:54:59,840 --> 01:55:02,440 Speaker 19: the head shoulder of Alex. But it's going to be 2336 01:55:02,480 --> 01:55:05,560 Speaker 19: a corner kick on there on Minnesota's left hand side. 2337 01:55:05,600 --> 01:55:07,200 Speaker 19: Peree is going to have it left foot. It's gonna 2338 01:55:07,200 --> 01:55:10,080 Speaker 19: be an outswinger, one arm up in the air. Scarves 2339 01:55:10,120 --> 01:55:12,840 Speaker 19: are waving in behind Sepron fries goals. The ball gets 2340 01:55:12,880 --> 01:55:15,560 Speaker 19: looped in towards the backstick, headed down by Diaz, ball 2341 01:55:15,600 --> 01:55:19,640 Speaker 19: bouncing around, eventually cleared on the slide by Roth Rockers. 2342 01:55:19,720 --> 01:55:22,480 Speaker 19: The Green Shirts back up now defend as Results whips 2343 01:55:22,520 --> 01:55:24,800 Speaker 19: a great ball to the backstick and Yemar goes up 2344 01:55:25,280 --> 01:55:27,480 Speaker 19: and just flicks it over the top for another corner 2345 01:55:27,600 --> 01:55:30,560 Speaker 19: kick on the left hand side. As the Minnesota A 2346 01:55:30,600 --> 01:55:33,080 Speaker 19: crowd get up on their feet, they're feeling it right now. 2347 01:55:33,960 --> 01:55:36,960 Speaker 19: As we said, set pieces for Minnesota, who are certainly 2348 01:55:37,640 --> 01:55:40,080 Speaker 19: an area of their game that they've executed on well 2349 01:55:40,160 --> 01:55:45,000 Speaker 19: this season. Throw in free kicks, corner kicks. The big 2350 01:55:45,080 --> 01:55:45,520 Speaker 19: men are up. 2351 01:55:45,840 --> 01:55:48,360 Speaker 30: Well, it's cumulative, isn't it. You keep giving a team 2352 01:55:48,760 --> 01:55:52,960 Speaker 30: more and more chances. It's making me nervous that they're 2353 01:55:53,000 --> 01:55:56,000 Speaker 30: getting as many free kicks and opportunities as they're getting. 2354 01:55:57,680 --> 01:56:00,480 Speaker 30: But the referee is very hands on with their every player. 2355 01:56:02,120 --> 01:56:03,840 Speaker 30: In this corner kick, there's a little bit of scuffles. 2356 01:56:03,880 --> 01:56:08,760 Speaker 30: He's trying to make sure no one's fouling anyone else. Oh, 2357 01:56:08,840 --> 01:56:09,800 Speaker 30: there must be blood. 2358 01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:13,920 Speaker 19: There's a little bit of blood on boxall. He's having 2359 01:56:13,960 --> 01:56:16,400 Speaker 19: to force him to come off, which here's the problem, 2360 01:56:16,440 --> 01:56:19,080 Speaker 19: I think, and I could be fact checked here, but 2361 01:56:19,200 --> 01:56:21,160 Speaker 19: because he has to go off without a concussion, he 2362 01:56:21,200 --> 01:56:22,920 Speaker 19: has to be off for two minutes. That's the argument 2363 01:56:23,040 --> 01:56:25,520 Speaker 19: right now. The referee's already said he has to go off. 2364 01:56:25,800 --> 01:56:27,760 Speaker 19: Now he has to walk off for two minutes. We 2365 01:56:27,840 --> 01:56:29,480 Speaker 19: had it with Kim Ky he when he went off 2366 01:56:29,520 --> 01:56:31,680 Speaker 19: and we conceded a goal when he was on it 2367 01:56:31,880 --> 01:56:37,640 Speaker 19: just weeks or months ago. Now, Doug Boxhall one of 2368 01:56:37,680 --> 01:56:41,560 Speaker 19: the most dominant players in the air. He's gonna be 2369 01:56:41,640 --> 01:56:44,040 Speaker 19: forced to go off unless he stays on the field 2370 01:56:44,040 --> 01:56:45,920 Speaker 19: and the refee allows it to happen. But he's gonna 2371 01:56:45,920 --> 01:56:47,879 Speaker 19: have to get treatment for a little cut on his forehead. 2372 01:56:48,400 --> 01:56:52,240 Speaker 19: It's a little vasaline there to prevent the flow. And 2373 01:56:52,320 --> 01:56:54,000 Speaker 19: the referee is going to have to make a decision 2374 01:56:54,040 --> 01:56:56,120 Speaker 19: here is he classified as being off the field or 2375 01:56:56,680 --> 01:56:58,720 Speaker 19: did he have treatment on the field. Either way it's treatment. 2376 01:56:58,800 --> 01:57:02,400 Speaker 19: He has to go off. So there's two minutes and 2377 01:57:02,440 --> 01:57:05,080 Speaker 19: the I think he and the Eric Ramsey, the head 2378 01:57:05,120 --> 01:57:07,440 Speaker 19: coach of Minnesota, know exactly what's going on. For Brian 2379 01:57:07,480 --> 01:57:09,480 Speaker 19: Schmittz is having a little chuckle right now. Been there, 2380 01:57:09,600 --> 01:57:12,440 Speaker 19: done that. But the Sounders still have to defend this one. 2381 01:57:12,600 --> 01:57:15,720 Speaker 19: Still some big players up there and markinich Romero and 2382 01:57:15,840 --> 01:57:19,360 Speaker 19: Diaz ball gets whipped in over the topic goes it 2383 01:57:19,480 --> 01:57:22,880 Speaker 19: was a head of one by Diaz just skimmed off 2384 01:57:22,920 --> 01:57:26,000 Speaker 19: his head goes wide. It's got to be a goal 2385 01:57:26,120 --> 01:57:29,000 Speaker 19: kick for the Sounders. As we hit the seventy minute mark, 2386 01:57:29,120 --> 01:57:34,240 Speaker 19: Neil nil between Minnesota and the Sounders and Pete Few 2387 01:57:34,240 --> 01:57:37,760 Speaker 19: and that was a little bit of frustration coming out 2388 01:57:37,760 --> 01:57:40,240 Speaker 19: of the crowd right there, as Box will have to 2389 01:57:40,280 --> 01:57:40,600 Speaker 19: come off. 2390 01:57:40,760 --> 01:57:43,080 Speaker 30: Well, I understand, and Box, all the good news is 2391 01:57:43,120 --> 01:57:45,560 Speaker 30: you're back on for Minnesota right away, so they didn't 2392 01:57:45,600 --> 01:57:46,840 Speaker 30: keep him to the two minutes. 2393 01:57:47,280 --> 01:57:50,000 Speaker 19: Which again I'm gonna yeah, I'm gonna ask you to 2394 01:57:50,080 --> 01:57:51,480 Speaker 19: go check the rules at the end of the game, 2395 01:57:51,560 --> 01:57:55,360 Speaker 19: because I don't think you can make your own decisions 2396 01:57:55,360 --> 01:57:57,200 Speaker 19: here for the referee, I get. 2397 01:57:57,120 --> 01:57:59,840 Speaker 30: A senseless referees a bit that way from some of 2398 01:57:59,880 --> 01:58:00,960 Speaker 30: the calls he's already made. 2399 01:58:02,560 --> 01:58:04,760 Speaker 29: I felt like there was a makeup call with Jordan Morris. 2400 01:58:05,280 --> 01:58:07,120 Speaker 19: I'm not I'm not going to admit I'm not primed 2401 01:58:07,160 --> 01:58:10,680 Speaker 19: always on the on the rules. As knew, who does 2402 01:58:10,720 --> 01:58:12,839 Speaker 19: a two footed tackle to win the ball. 2403 01:58:12,960 --> 01:58:14,920 Speaker 29: And passed two footed tackle and pass. 2404 01:58:15,360 --> 01:58:18,280 Speaker 19: He was a pass, there was not a tackle. It 2405 01:58:18,320 --> 01:58:20,080 Speaker 19: comes new who now has the ball out to his left. 2406 01:58:20,120 --> 01:58:20,920 Speaker 29: That gives it away. 2407 01:58:21,080 --> 01:58:23,880 Speaker 19: Sloppy again. Here comes Rosales. Now he's going to try 2408 01:58:23,880 --> 01:58:28,320 Speaker 19: and run out on Knew who down this right hand 2409 01:58:28,440 --> 01:58:30,600 Speaker 19: side for Minnesota this near side and then tries to 2410 01:58:30,600 --> 01:58:33,320 Speaker 19: play at square. Good tracking by Obed, picked up by 2411 01:58:34,600 --> 01:58:39,720 Speaker 19: Paul rothtruck and then brought down by Rosales. See asking 2412 01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:41,720 Speaker 19: for a yellow car. The referee is not given anything 2413 01:58:41,800 --> 01:58:46,480 Speaker 19: right now. A couple of changes now Asanic Dotson fed 2414 01:58:46,520 --> 01:58:48,320 Speaker 19: away kid, it's going to come on the thirty one 2415 01:58:48,360 --> 01:58:50,120 Speaker 19: has missed a lots of the season due to injury. 2416 01:58:50,680 --> 01:58:53,320 Speaker 19: And then Kelvin Yoboa, their main man been out for 2417 01:58:53,320 --> 01:58:55,800 Speaker 19: the best part of a month. In a substitute appearance 2418 01:58:56,400 --> 01:58:59,760 Speaker 19: last week. Now he's coming on and he's going to 2419 01:58:59,800 --> 01:59:02,960 Speaker 19: be the player that's going to try and make things 2420 01:59:03,080 --> 01:59:09,040 Speaker 19: happen up front. Sounders also prime to make a change 2421 01:59:09,200 --> 01:59:12,440 Speaker 19: as well. We'll get you that change in just a moment. 2422 01:59:13,320 --> 01:59:17,240 Speaker 19: Farrera off Mussovsky on. So this isn't an attacking move 2423 01:59:17,320 --> 01:59:22,480 Speaker 19: by Brian Schmetzer. We'll see what he does here. If 2424 01:59:22,480 --> 01:59:25,240 Speaker 19: it's going to be a two prong attack, unless I 2425 01:59:25,360 --> 01:59:27,960 Speaker 19: missed Jordan Morris going off, we'll confirm, but nope, Morris 2426 01:59:28,080 --> 01:59:33,800 Speaker 19: is on there and it's Mussovski Morris, two strikers, fourteen 2427 01:59:33,840 --> 01:59:37,440 Speaker 19: goldman Mussovski alongside the all time leading goal scorer for 2428 01:59:37,480 --> 01:59:38,480 Speaker 19: the Sounders in Morris. 2429 01:59:38,600 --> 01:59:43,920 Speaker 29: So I like that that's given Jordan Morris, Brian and you've. 2430 01:59:43,840 --> 01:59:46,480 Speaker 19: Got to give him credit because it's nil nil, not 2431 01:59:46,640 --> 01:59:50,960 Speaker 19: chasing the game necessarily, but they're making an attacking move 2432 01:59:51,080 --> 01:59:54,480 Speaker 19: here as Yemar just knocks off Pere who runs straight 2433 01:59:54,520 --> 01:59:57,600 Speaker 19: into Himyema not appreciating that one, just blowing off the 2434 01:59:57,640 --> 02:00:01,240 Speaker 19: referee and the players is asking for maybe something from 2435 02:00:01,240 --> 02:00:05,440 Speaker 19: the referee. Sound As Half Possession with Jackson Reagan Well 2436 02:00:05,480 --> 02:00:08,000 Speaker 19: sound as f CE Soaker is presented by Provident Swedish 2437 02:00:08,040 --> 02:00:11,200 Speaker 19: official healthcare partner sound as FC Here come. The sounder 2438 02:00:11,240 --> 02:00:13,040 Speaker 19: is middle of the partner. Now with Obed tries to 2439 02:00:13,440 --> 02:00:16,680 Speaker 19: wriggle out of pressure. He gives it up, Will Trapp 2440 02:00:16,800 --> 02:00:19,360 Speaker 19: wins it, plays it into Perey. Now back to trap 2441 02:00:19,440 --> 02:00:19,840 Speaker 19: and then. 2442 02:00:20,400 --> 02:00:21,440 Speaker 3: Bar Guess wins. 2443 02:00:21,480 --> 02:00:24,760 Speaker 19: The ball gets barreled into by Perey. It's gonna be 2444 02:00:24,800 --> 02:00:27,760 Speaker 19: a foul just on the halfway line. Good work back 2445 02:00:27,840 --> 02:00:31,400 Speaker 19: by obed One lost the ball initially and then which 2446 02:00:31,400 --> 02:00:34,200 Speaker 19: is way back in the foul sounders have it laying 2447 02:00:34,240 --> 02:00:35,640 Speaker 19: out to a rosneck on this near side. 2448 02:00:36,840 --> 02:00:37,000 Speaker 5: Well. 2449 02:00:37,040 --> 02:00:38,160 Speaker 29: I like the move from Brian. 2450 02:00:38,200 --> 02:00:41,160 Speaker 30: It is aggressive and it's definitely putting going on to 2451 02:00:41,240 --> 02:00:43,640 Speaker 30: the front foot, keeping both of them up higher. Danny 2452 02:00:43,680 --> 02:00:45,640 Speaker 30: Massovski's right in the middle of the park. Jordan Morris 2453 02:00:46,000 --> 02:00:50,520 Speaker 30: has gone wide right now where Ferrero was because it's 2454 02:00:50,560 --> 02:00:53,240 Speaker 30: a good confidence builder for Jorde Morris from Brian Schweitzer. 2455 02:00:53,280 --> 02:00:56,040 Speaker 30: It's an endorsement, right you're gonna I know you're coming 2456 02:00:56,080 --> 02:00:57,920 Speaker 30: off injury, got to go in the last game. 2457 02:00:58,000 --> 02:00:58,560 Speaker 29: Let's keep you on. 2458 02:00:59,160 --> 02:01:01,840 Speaker 19: And it's playing right right now as Jordan maybe got 2459 02:01:01,880 --> 02:01:05,320 Speaker 19: some flexibility to move around that outside. And of course 2460 02:01:05,400 --> 02:01:07,120 Speaker 19: let's not forget it feels that Jordan Morris has been 2461 02:01:07,120 --> 02:01:08,600 Speaker 19: playing up front for years and years and years, but 2462 02:01:08,960 --> 02:01:11,360 Speaker 19: what's the majority of his career played out in this 2463 02:01:11,480 --> 02:01:13,120 Speaker 19: left hand side in a four two three one with 2464 02:01:13,160 --> 02:01:16,600 Speaker 19: Brian Schmitzer. Huge success in that position, so it's not 2465 02:01:16,720 --> 02:01:18,440 Speaker 19: foreign for him to play on the outside and he's 2466 02:01:18,680 --> 02:01:20,600 Speaker 19: just tucked in right now playing on that right hand side. 2467 02:01:20,680 --> 02:01:23,440 Speaker 19: Right now, as Rothrock continues to play on this left 2468 02:01:23,480 --> 02:01:25,320 Speaker 19: hand side, we'll see if they will shake out and 2469 02:01:25,800 --> 02:01:29,400 Speaker 19: change over. And it comes to Rothrock eighteen yards from 2470 02:01:29,440 --> 02:01:37,280 Speaker 19: the inline left channel closed down by Minnesota and long 2471 02:01:37,360 --> 02:01:39,240 Speaker 19: one as he's playing on that right hand side now 2472 02:01:39,320 --> 02:01:41,760 Speaker 19: as ye Boa has made up front, here comes Rothrock 2473 02:01:41,760 --> 02:01:45,040 Speaker 19: clips it in towards the far post, headed away by Romero, 2474 02:01:45,680 --> 02:01:48,480 Speaker 19: and he finds Yeimar on the far side. The Sounders 2475 02:01:48,560 --> 02:01:53,480 Speaker 19: right to Alex to Jackson. Reagan just pinched up the 2476 02:01:53,520 --> 02:01:55,440 Speaker 19: field now as eleven men behind the ball for Minnesota 2477 02:01:55,440 --> 02:01:57,480 Speaker 19: and given it away by Obed little sloppily but nothing 2478 02:01:57,560 --> 02:01:59,640 Speaker 19: forward and available for prey. As ye Boa makes to 2479 02:01:59,720 --> 02:02:02,919 Speaker 19: run and Sounders win the ball good pressure and eventually 2480 02:02:03,000 --> 02:02:06,120 Speaker 19: gets away. There's Perea. There's three green shirts surrounded him. 2481 02:02:06,120 --> 02:02:08,400 Speaker 19: Won the ball. He fell to ground free Cape Minnesota 2482 02:02:08,960 --> 02:02:10,600 Speaker 19: and they get it going quickly. He got some pace 2483 02:02:10,680 --> 02:02:13,360 Speaker 19: now in this game, Pete feels like a playoff game. 2484 02:02:13,440 --> 02:02:15,120 Speaker 29: It does feel like a playoff game. This has been 2485 02:02:15,160 --> 02:02:18,680 Speaker 29: a very quick half, sixteen minutes to go. 2486 02:02:20,520 --> 02:02:22,680 Speaker 30: With some stoppage time, but yeah, you can tell it's 2487 02:02:22,720 --> 02:02:25,120 Speaker 30: been elevated by the subs coming in as well. 2488 02:02:26,440 --> 02:02:28,240 Speaker 19: No coach wants to maybe win this in the first 2489 02:02:28,320 --> 02:02:30,040 Speaker 19: in the ninety I think both coaches want to win 2490 02:02:30,080 --> 02:02:31,440 Speaker 19: this one. They don't want to go to penalties. But 2491 02:02:31,560 --> 02:02:36,640 Speaker 19: here comes Dotson. All goes down the line and it's 2492 02:02:36,880 --> 02:02:39,720 Speaker 19: picked up by the Sounders, with roll Don being all 2493 02:02:39,760 --> 02:02:42,320 Speaker 19: over the park as he flicks it forward to Danny Mussoski, 2494 02:02:42,360 --> 02:02:44,680 Speaker 19: good first touch away from pressure Roth asking for the 2495 02:02:44,720 --> 02:02:47,360 Speaker 19: ball down the line standing there now now he stops 2496 02:02:47,920 --> 02:02:50,960 Speaker 19: Musovski's runs into a little bit of a dead end there, 2497 02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:53,200 Speaker 19: but somehow gets away with it, finds oh bet it 2498 02:02:53,280 --> 02:02:56,040 Speaker 19: just flicks it through the legs of Triantis. Sounders have 2499 02:02:56,120 --> 02:03:01,080 Speaker 19: possession far side the right now with Alex tucked in 2500 02:03:01,440 --> 02:03:04,040 Speaker 19: from that right back spot, nothing wide has to go 2501 02:03:04,120 --> 02:03:07,920 Speaker 19: inside to Russneck. Sounders have good possession of the ball 2502 02:03:08,080 --> 02:03:12,440 Speaker 19: still as they continue to dominate possession again as you'd expect, 2503 02:03:12,520 --> 02:03:14,600 Speaker 19: the balls flick down the line towards Morris making a 2504 02:03:14,720 --> 02:03:16,920 Speaker 19: run five yards from the end line right hand side. 2505 02:03:17,000 --> 02:03:20,400 Speaker 19: Flicks it back to Alex who goes inside to a 2506 02:03:20,480 --> 02:03:24,000 Speaker 19: Rusnick pressure and the ball goes inside. It's trapped well 2507 02:03:24,400 --> 02:03:26,800 Speaker 19: by Minnesota and Treants, but picked up by the sounders. 2508 02:03:27,360 --> 02:03:30,680 Speaker 19: They fight for the ball, win it with obed Alex 2509 02:03:30,760 --> 02:03:32,640 Speaker 19: on the far side, turns away from pressure, has to 2510 02:03:32,720 --> 02:03:37,320 Speaker 19: go back, nothing forward.

So we've 2513 02:03:44,920 --> 02:03:48,920 Speaker 19: given the subs out already. Pete. Surprisingness we talked about 2514 02:03:49,240 --> 02:03:52,080 Speaker 19: is an aggressive move by Brian. What are the other 2515 02:03:52,920 --> 02:03:55,480 Speaker 19: moves and cards he can play? Now? Georgie on the bench. 2516 02:03:55,720 --> 02:03:58,520 Speaker 19: Of course he can come in the outside, but it's. 2517 02:03:58,360 --> 02:04:01,440 Speaker 30: Still nil will I think it's Georgie. I don't think 2518 02:04:01,480 --> 02:04:03,720 Speaker 30: you changed the back four only there, you don't change 2519 02:04:03,760 --> 02:04:04,560 Speaker 30: the middle of the park. 2520 02:04:05,520 --> 02:04:06,680 Speaker 29: I think Georgie. I don't think. 2521 02:04:06,600 --> 02:04:10,200 Speaker 30: Asaze could come in for Jordan Morris, but I think 2522 02:04:10,320 --> 02:04:13,440 Speaker 30: he's already voted him Morris in for the full ninety minutes, 2523 02:04:13,480 --> 02:04:15,800 Speaker 30: so I think the only other change is maybe Georgie 2524 02:04:16,480 --> 02:04:21,640 Speaker 30: for Paul Rothrock, maybe Georgie for maybe for Morris, but 2525 02:04:21,880 --> 02:04:22,880 Speaker 30: I think he keeps Moris on. 2526 02:04:23,160 --> 02:04:25,360 Speaker 19: So we got fourteen minutes left of the ninety straight 2527 02:04:25,400 --> 02:04:28,160 Speaker 19: to penalties, and we'll get you. I'll get you a 2528 02:04:28,240 --> 02:04:30,920 Speaker 19: question in a minute. Here comes Rothrock tries to clip 2529 02:04:30,960 --> 02:04:32,720 Speaker 19: it around the corner away from long one eight double 2530 02:04:32,760 --> 02:04:35,280 Speaker 19: team now by diaz Is. He goes flying in wins 2531 02:04:35,360 --> 02:04:38,480 Speaker 19: the ball. Rothrock on the ground again already it comes 2532 02:04:38,560 --> 02:04:43,520 Speaker 19: rolled on, tries to barrel into Triantis is looked athletic 2533 02:04:43,640 --> 02:04:45,480 Speaker 19: and strong in the middle of the park as the Australians. 2534 02:04:45,520 --> 02:04:48,000 Speaker 19: The ball gets whits to the far side and marketing 2535 02:04:48,000 --> 02:04:49,280 Speaker 19: it from the fast. I can't keep it and it's 2536 02:04:49,280 --> 02:04:50,760 Speaker 19: gonna be thrown for the sound. So let me ask 2537 02:04:50,840 --> 02:04:53,120 Speaker 19: this question as a coach, when do you start thinking 2538 02:04:53,160 --> 02:04:55,720 Speaker 19: about penalties and who you want on the field. We 2539 02:04:55,800 --> 02:04:57,880 Speaker 19: have players on the bench who can take them. Of course, 2540 02:04:58,000 --> 02:05:00,520 Speaker 19: Danny lavers not to take a good penalty a couple 2541 02:05:00,560 --> 02:05:04,040 Speaker 19: of us, maybe JP with his experience. But if you 2542 02:05:04,200 --> 02:05:06,200 Speaker 19: think about that, I think, when do you think about it? 2543 02:05:06,240 --> 02:05:09,160 Speaker 29: I think he says to Precky, figure out penalty kicks. Yeah, honestly, 2544 02:05:09,240 --> 02:05:11,640 Speaker 29: I think you focus on the game both to the bat. 2545 02:05:11,680 --> 02:05:12,920 Speaker 19: Post will get to you in a second as the 2546 02:05:12,960 --> 02:05:14,320 Speaker 19: ball flicks out to the far side. 2547 02:05:14,600 --> 02:05:16,480 Speaker 30: Yeah, you just say, Precky, get get as sorted out 2548 02:05:16,480 --> 02:05:19,200 Speaker 30: for penalties and they know you know. Christian Alex Rous 2549 02:05:19,240 --> 02:05:24,200 Speaker 30: Snack Reagan. Maybe Morris, he missed a PK recently, so. 2550 02:05:24,840 --> 02:05:26,520 Speaker 19: Maybe you've got your top goal scorer on there, and 2551 02:05:26,600 --> 02:05:29,200 Speaker 19: he's always been lethal with penalties. It feels like talking 2552 02:05:29,240 --> 02:05:31,240 Speaker 19: to the guy who's in Prentice as they built up 2553 02:05:31,280 --> 02:05:34,680 Speaker 19: for some of these games that Marris look dynamite. I mean, 2554 02:05:34,720 --> 02:05:37,240 Speaker 19: you've got five on there that are easy and yeah, 2555 02:05:37,680 --> 02:05:43,040 Speaker 19: the roll down Brothers for sure. Reagan, yep, Reagan has 2556 02:05:43,080 --> 02:05:45,760 Speaker 19: taken him in penalty shootouts as is Oh bad. 2557 02:05:46,280 --> 02:05:48,480 Speaker 29: Yeah, and then you're right Morris. 2558 02:05:50,320 --> 02:05:52,840 Speaker 30: Our old assistant coach Jeff Cook used to say, dance 2559 02:05:52,920 --> 02:05:54,360 Speaker 30: with the one who brung you right. 2560 02:05:54,480 --> 02:05:57,240 Speaker 29: And Jordan Morris's leading goal scorer in this club. 2561 02:05:57,320 --> 02:06:00,080 Speaker 19: And so you're not gonna hot to better games and 2562 02:06:00,160 --> 02:06:03,120 Speaker 19: party bet against Yeah, Well, the Sounders have the talent 2563 02:06:03,160 --> 02:06:04,560 Speaker 19: in the field to still get it done.

And here he goes as 2581 02:06:59,200 --> 02:07:02,040 Speaker 19: New who's striding forward, good tracking by long one eye, 2582 02:07:02,440 --> 02:07:04,280 Speaker 19: is able to get out of trouble.

Now Perea has it 2586 02:07:15,800 --> 02:07:17,720 Speaker 19: in his own half, then clips it firm right of 2587 02:07:17,800 --> 02:07:22,840 Speaker 19: center to the far side. Minnesota's left Sounders deal with 2588 02:07:22,920 --> 02:07:25,720 Speaker 19: it well. Russneck has it. Bit of pressure coming from 2589 02:07:25,720 --> 02:07:28,040 Speaker 19: your Boro from behind. Sounders can calm the game down 2590 02:07:28,480 --> 02:07:30,000 Speaker 19: as he mentioned the rate of greener back at home 2591 02:07:30,080 --> 02:07:32,600 Speaker 19: at the Emerald Queen Casino Pitcher Luminfield to take on 2592 02:07:32,680 --> 02:07:36,720 Speaker 19: Minnesota United in Round one Match two on Monday November 2593 02:07:36,760 --> 02:07:39,840 Speaker 19: third at seven thirty pm Pacific.

It was Mussoski 2600 02:07:58,560 --> 02:08:01,920 Speaker 19: from about three yards out. Dane sin Claike got in 2601 02:08:01,960 --> 02:08:03,360 Speaker 19: the way. It goes over the end line for a 2602 02:08:03,440 --> 02:08:08,280 Speaker 19: corner kick, kill edge chance for the Sounders. Dane sin 2603 02:08:08,360 --> 02:08:11,080 Speaker 19: Claire comes up big, but Danny Massovsky really has to 2604 02:08:11,160 --> 02:08:14,560 Speaker 19: show and score that goal. It goes agonizingly wide off 2605 02:08:14,640 --> 02:08:15,000 Speaker 19: the save. 2606 02:08:18,080 --> 02:08:20,560 Speaker 30: Pete Fewing, Yeah, that almost made Brian she Better look 2607 02:08:20,600 --> 02:08:22,960 Speaker 30: like a genus, putting Jordan Morris out wide. 2608 02:08:23,080 --> 02:08:24,400 Speaker 29: Danny Massowski makes the run. 2609 02:08:24,480 --> 02:08:25,280 Speaker 19: You can hardly believe it. 2610 02:08:25,320 --> 02:08:27,760 Speaker 29: Ken, Yeah, yeah, maybe if he just clips that to 2611 02:08:27,840 --> 02:08:28,800 Speaker 29: the far post and. 2612 02:08:28,840 --> 02:08:33,560 Speaker 19: As you move Pete Paul Rothrock off Georgie on So 2613 02:08:33,720 --> 02:08:39,640 Speaker 19: now combination Diaz long One has got a the nightmare 2614 02:08:39,680 --> 02:08:41,360 Speaker 19: of dealing with Georgie in the last ten minutes of 2615 02:08:41,400 --> 02:08:41,680 Speaker 19: the game. 2616 02:08:41,880 --> 02:08:45,280 Speaker 30: Well, he'll bring great energy and relentless pursuit down that line. 2617 02:08:45,320 --> 02:08:47,920 Speaker 19: He's also got Ryan Kentbrey over his shoulder. Now as 2618 02:08:47,920 --> 02:08:49,880 Speaker 19: he comes back into full practice, we'll get a good 2619 02:08:49,880 --> 02:08:52,600 Speaker 19: week of practicing ahead of next week's game. Or see 2620 02:08:52,640 --> 02:08:56,320 Speaker 19: what happens. Anybody apprentice has seen him, He's looked very good. 2621 02:08:57,320 --> 02:08:59,080 Speaker 19: George's got a chance to make a statement. Now is 2622 02:08:59,080 --> 02:09:02,800 Speaker 19: the ball gets whipped in headed away by boxheil fluffed 2623 02:09:02,800 --> 02:09:06,720 Speaker 19: by rolled On, then picked up by long One air 2624 02:09:06,760 --> 02:09:09,640 Speaker 19: and then trapped back by Christian rolled On who gets 2625 02:09:09,720 --> 02:09:11,760 Speaker 19: nudged into by box or Sounders still have it far 2626 02:09:11,880 --> 02:09:14,120 Speaker 19: side the right with Rosneck has some times it'll whip 2627 02:09:14,160 --> 02:09:18,880 Speaker 19: it intowards Morris, ball bounces around, comes off Dotson. Well 2628 02:09:19,000 --> 02:09:21,240 Speaker 19: faint shout of a handball, but nothing there for the 2629 02:09:21,320 --> 02:09:24,160 Speaker 19: referee as Georgie jumps in front of the goalkeeper launched 2630 02:09:24,200 --> 02:09:27,080 Speaker 19: the ball along. Good play by new Who is he 2631 02:09:27,240 --> 02:09:30,160 Speaker 19: fights with your boa We're asking him for a handball. 2632 02:09:30,160 --> 02:09:31,720 Speaker 19: It's gonna be a thrown on this near side, right 2633 02:09:31,720 --> 02:09:33,320 Speaker 19: in front of Eric Ramse, who's been up in his 2634 02:09:33,440 --> 02:09:37,760 Speaker 19: technical area much of this second half. I'm not particularly 2635 02:09:37,800 --> 02:09:39,800 Speaker 19: happy with some of the calls going against his team, 2636 02:09:39,960 --> 02:09:48,360 Speaker 19: or calls not provided for by the referee. Jane comes on, 2637 02:09:48,560 --> 02:09:52,520 Speaker 19: Will Trap comes off, and n Lys vet and Will tramp. 2638 02:09:52,640 --> 02:09:58,760 Speaker 19: Of course it's Minnesota making some of those moves now 2639 02:09:58,880 --> 02:10:01,560 Speaker 19: as they set themselves up this final ten minutes or 2640 02:10:01,640 --> 02:10:07,600 Speaker 19: so of the game. I think the Sounders and Brian 2641 02:10:07,640 --> 02:10:11,360 Speaker 19: Schmittz will most likely run out his main guys here 2642 02:10:11,440 --> 02:10:13,120 Speaker 19: for the duration of this ninety minutes. They know there's 2643 02:10:13,440 --> 02:10:17,000 Speaker 19: there's no added time, so there'll be a straight ninety 2644 02:10:17,240 --> 02:10:19,160 Speaker 19: and then straight into penalties. But we've got eight minutes 2645 02:10:19,200 --> 02:10:22,160 Speaker 19: left of the ninety. Sounders have to defend this free 2646 02:10:22,280 --> 02:10:24,400 Speaker 19: kick with Peree on the right hand side. It's gonna 2647 02:10:24,400 --> 02:10:26,200 Speaker 19: be his left foot. It's gonna swing this one in 2648 02:10:26,960 --> 02:10:29,560 Speaker 19: Sounders holding up two yards outside of their eighteen. It 2649 02:10:29,640 --> 02:10:32,160 Speaker 19: doesn't get swung and he drives it forward. That's a poor, 2650 02:10:32,240 --> 02:10:34,840 Speaker 19: poor delivery. Goes on the outside all the way out 2651 02:10:34,880 --> 02:10:36,880 Speaker 19: on the far side for a Sounders throw. Maybe he 2652 02:10:36,920 --> 02:10:38,600 Speaker 19: thought it was a kickoff and I think if every 2653 02:10:38,640 --> 02:10:41,360 Speaker 19: Ramsey was fired up after some of the refereeing decisions, 2654 02:10:41,480 --> 02:10:43,280 Speaker 19: probably pulling his hair out of after that free. 2655 02:10:43,160 --> 02:10:45,560 Speaker 30: Kick, well boy, he just drove that from the right 2656 02:10:45,640 --> 02:10:48,160 Speaker 30: side of the field one hop out of bounds to 2657 02:10:48,200 --> 02:10:49,120 Speaker 30: the left hand side. 2658 02:10:48,920 --> 02:10:49,280 Speaker 29: Of the field. 2659 02:10:49,280 --> 02:10:50,560 Speaker 19: It looks like I passed you and I would make 2660 02:10:50,600 --> 02:10:53,640 Speaker 19: these days. And that's slashing foul by Triantas. That has 2661 02:10:53,680 --> 02:10:56,200 Speaker 19: to be yell a card and it is. Where hasn't 2662 02:10:56,200 --> 02:10:57,800 Speaker 19: that picked the ball ab outside his eighteen yard box? 2663 02:10:57,920 --> 02:11:02,240 Speaker 19: The sounder's bill and Treontas came flying in reckless challenge 2664 02:11:02,280 --> 02:11:04,320 Speaker 19: on Rosna because he goes to ground tings a moment 2665 02:11:04,440 --> 02:11:09,880 Speaker 19: or so just to compose himself. And it wasn't through 2666 02:11:09,920 --> 02:11:12,120 Speaker 19: the back of him. It was more connection to his 2667 02:11:12,200 --> 02:11:14,560 Speaker 19: foot on the follow through on the pass, but a 2668 02:11:14,600 --> 02:11:15,360 Speaker 19: little reckless. 2669 02:11:15,600 --> 02:11:19,560 Speaker 30: Yeah, it looked worse in live. The replay didn't look 2670 02:11:19,600 --> 02:11:22,440 Speaker 30: as nasty as or deliberate. 2671 02:11:23,080 --> 02:11:23,760 Speaker 29: Than the replay. 2672 02:11:23,840 --> 02:11:27,280 Speaker 19: So sounds that a freak kick, is you know what 2673 02:11:27,360 --> 02:11:28,960 Speaker 19: I thought? Gingerly walks away. 2674 02:11:29,080 --> 02:11:31,560 Speaker 30: Do they say Rusta's gonna take one of the penalty kick, sol, 2675 02:11:31,640 --> 02:11:33,880 Speaker 30: Let's give him something to think about. 2676 02:11:33,760 --> 02:11:37,040 Speaker 19: Yeah, exactly, it's you know, we'll just make me hobble 2677 02:11:37,120 --> 02:11:39,520 Speaker 19: up there. Remember the ninety four World Cut when Roberto 2678 02:11:39,600 --> 02:11:41,960 Speaker 19: Bagio and Franka Breze could barely walk up to the 2679 02:11:42,640 --> 02:11:44,600 Speaker 19: spot and I think they both missed. 2680 02:11:44,640 --> 02:11:47,160 Speaker 29: If memory served, Bajio Skiddy had about that. 2681 02:11:47,240 --> 02:11:49,360 Speaker 19: I am string Frank a brazy mist as well. 2682 02:11:50,560 --> 02:11:51,920 Speaker 29: He had some quads razy. 2683 02:11:52,600 --> 02:11:53,840 Speaker 19: He was a hell of a play You think of 2684 02:11:53,960 --> 02:11:56,120 Speaker 19: be an accountant if you saw him on the street. 2685 02:11:56,840 --> 02:12:01,160 Speaker 19: That's not quite Virgil van Dijk. That's one of the 2686 02:12:01,240 --> 02:12:03,280 Speaker 19: best players. I remember watching him as a kid and 2687 02:12:03,400 --> 02:12:06,680 Speaker 19: how he just waited for the long ball and would 2688 02:12:06,760 --> 02:12:10,280 Speaker 19: just nudge the forward away, drop win the ball, cushion 2689 02:12:10,280 --> 02:12:13,440 Speaker 19: head him into his midfield as sound as step prayer 2690 02:12:13,520 --> 02:12:17,640 Speaker 19: goes down. Sounders don't agree with it with a free kick, 2691 02:12:17,680 --> 02:12:19,560 Speaker 19: but it's gonna be a free kick from Minnesota inside 2692 02:12:20,360 --> 02:12:23,480 Speaker 19: their own defensive half. The field is more the follow 2693 02:12:23,560 --> 02:12:25,960 Speaker 19: through by Oh Beed doesn't agree with it, but it's 2694 02:12:25,960 --> 02:12:26,640 Speaker 19: gonna be free kick. 2695 02:12:27,440 --> 02:12:31,480 Speaker 30: Let's oft penalty kicks. I've heard Roman Tours now lives 2696 02:12:31,520 --> 02:12:33,880 Speaker 30: in the Northwest. Nice to sign him for a ten 2697 02:12:33,960 --> 02:12:37,760 Speaker 30: day contract as is right. You don't have to practice. 2698 02:12:37,880 --> 02:12:39,280 Speaker 30: Is that how you could be our marsh On Lynz, 2699 02:12:39,360 --> 02:12:40,600 Speaker 30: how you would do it as the head coach. No, 2700 02:12:40,760 --> 02:12:43,160 Speaker 30: it's not how I would do just thinking out loud. 2701 02:12:46,720 --> 02:12:47,720 Speaker 19: What I appreciate about you. 2702 02:12:48,720 --> 02:12:50,040 Speaker 29: You got to think outside of the box. 2703 02:12:50,400 --> 02:12:53,600 Speaker 19: Here come the Sounders. Can they just see this one out? 2704 02:12:53,640 --> 02:12:55,160 Speaker 19: Five minutes to go? But they want to try Nick 2705 02:12:55,200 --> 02:12:57,480 Speaker 19: a goal if they can, don't go to penalties. Toss 2706 02:12:57,520 --> 02:12:58,480 Speaker 19: of a coin is penalties. 2707 02:12:58,480 --> 02:12:58,800 Speaker 3: Of course. 2708 02:12:58,840 --> 02:13:00,760 Speaker 19: It sounds clear their line and it's going to be 2709 02:13:00,840 --> 02:13:03,120 Speaker 19: a free kick for the Sounders inside their eighteen yard 2710 02:13:03,160 --> 02:13:05,520 Speaker 19: box given by the referee. I think it's a off 2711 02:13:05,640 --> 02:13:08,880 Speaker 19: side assistant referees flag on this near side goes up. 2712 02:13:10,560 --> 02:13:14,080 Speaker 29: It's been a fast second half, hasn't it. Four and 2713 02:13:14,120 --> 02:13:14,920 Speaker 29: a half minutes to go. 2714 02:13:15,600 --> 02:13:19,000 Speaker 19: Let's give those final results coming out of Sunday and 2715 02:13:19,120 --> 02:13:22,520 Speaker 19: then today. So Vancouver three nil winners against Dallas at home. 2716 02:13:22,560 --> 02:13:25,640 Speaker 19: They go on the road to Texas to try and 2717 02:13:26,120 --> 02:13:28,640 Speaker 19: finish things up there. San Diego win two one at home. 2718 02:13:28,680 --> 02:13:30,720 Speaker 19: They go to Portland and try and finish up that 2719 02:13:31,000 --> 02:13:36,080 Speaker 19: series out in Portland. And then Cincinnati, the big rivalry 2720 02:13:36,120 --> 02:13:40,080 Speaker 19: game between Cincinnati and Columbus. One nil winner Cincinnati. The 2721 02:13:40,160 --> 02:13:43,720 Speaker 19: ball goes out fast side, just have it touched by 2722 02:13:43,840 --> 02:13:48,320 Speaker 19: Alex big deal over there, as the Minnesota have about 2723 02:13:48,360 --> 02:13:50,880 Speaker 19: the halfway line in the hands of Mark Nick nine 2724 02:13:50,920 --> 02:13:54,360 Speaker 19: goals in his season. Fantastic return for a left back. 2725 02:13:54,440 --> 02:13:56,240 Speaker 19: Now the ball goes in here come Danny missovsk I. 2726 02:13:56,240 --> 02:13:57,840 Speaker 19: Can you make up for that mess? Drops his shoulder, 2727 02:13:57,880 --> 02:13:59,840 Speaker 19: his right foot, tries to cut the ball back and 2728 02:14:00,320 --> 02:14:03,600 Speaker 19: now you just get his head down strike it. It's 2729 02:14:03,720 --> 02:14:07,040 Speaker 19: cleared by Minnesota down line, it goes Minnesota play on 2730 02:14:07,080 --> 02:14:11,040 Speaker 19: the far side oft Markinich goes down. Eventually referee gives 2731 02:14:11,080 --> 02:14:12,840 Speaker 19: the foul. Maybe it was the care he should have made, 2732 02:14:12,920 --> 02:14:14,960 Speaker 19: but it took an age for him to make it. 2733 02:14:16,240 --> 02:14:18,400 Speaker 19: Final four minutes of ninety Here. 2734 02:14:19,960 --> 02:14:22,360 Speaker 30: Masaski has a nose for the goal. He looks dangerous 2735 02:14:22,960 --> 02:14:25,880 Speaker 30: when he's running at Minnesota. He looked dangerous making the 2736 02:14:25,960 --> 02:14:30,160 Speaker 30: run through the box. Unfortunately hit it right at Saint Clair. 2737 02:14:31,000 --> 02:14:32,680 Speaker 30: If we can get him service running at the goal 2738 02:14:32,800 --> 02:14:35,680 Speaker 30: or getting through the box, we have a great opportunity 2739 02:14:35,720 --> 02:14:36,040 Speaker 30: with him. 2740 02:14:37,680 --> 02:14:41,520 Speaker 19: You have sixteen goals, sixteen goals all comps fourteen in 2741 02:14:41,640 --> 02:14:45,800 Speaker 19: MLS and fascinating how you can keep your top goal 2742 02:14:45,880 --> 02:14:48,960 Speaker 19: scorer fourteen goals on the bench. But he's got a chance. 2743 02:14:49,000 --> 02:14:51,320 Speaker 19: Now he's had a chance from two yards. It wasn't 2744 02:14:51,360 --> 02:14:54,480 Speaker 19: for the hip of Saint Clair and that save he 2745 02:14:54,560 --> 02:14:56,880 Speaker 19: made from point blank range. The ball goes in cleared 2746 02:14:56,920 --> 02:14:59,400 Speaker 19: with the right foot of Jackson. Reagan headed back up 2747 02:14:59,400 --> 02:15:01,720 Speaker 19: in the air, top eighteen yard box, challenged by Yemar 2748 02:15:01,800 --> 02:15:05,480 Speaker 19: against Kelvin Yeboa, the number nine. As the ball goes 2749 02:15:05,520 --> 02:15:08,640 Speaker 19: out far aside for a throwing for Minnesota and here 2750 02:15:08,760 --> 02:15:14,200 Speaker 19: comes Boxel Brayer just leaves it for him and it's 2751 02:15:14,320 --> 02:15:17,960 Speaker 19: nineteen eighties English style football brought in by Eric Ramsey. 2752 02:15:18,840 --> 02:15:22,200 Speaker 19: But he gets the results, Neil nil, three minutes to go, 2753 02:15:22,520 --> 02:15:26,920 Speaker 19: first round of the playoffs, first game here in Saint Paul, Minnesota. 2754 02:15:27,520 --> 02:15:31,400 Speaker 19: Sounder's looking try and defend this long throwing as the 2755 02:15:31,960 --> 02:15:34,920 Speaker 19: scarves and towels wave around this stadium. As the ball 2756 02:15:35,040 --> 02:15:38,400 Speaker 19: goes in, ball bounces around, it's flicked up. Christian Waldon's 2757 02:15:38,400 --> 02:15:40,080 Speaker 19: asking him for a foul. It's gonna be a corner 2758 02:15:40,160 --> 02:15:44,480 Speaker 19: kick given we'll just see what Christian Roldan does not agree. 2759 02:15:44,240 --> 02:15:49,000 Speaker 30: With the call at all, and he's pushed in the back, 2760 02:15:49,120 --> 02:15:52,000 Speaker 30: went straight down to the round, hitting the hinner with 2761 02:15:52,080 --> 02:15:54,920 Speaker 30: his chest on the under the carpet, So yeah, Christian 2762 02:15:55,240 --> 02:15:56,440 Speaker 30: definitely thinks he was felled. 2763 02:16:00,000 --> 02:16:02,440 Speaker 19: I want to kick four Minnesota. It's gonna be pereer 2764 02:16:02,560 --> 02:16:06,920 Speaker 19: far side, the left outswinger with his left foot. It's 2765 02:16:07,080 --> 02:16:10,360 Speaker 19: be looped up to the penalty spot, headed away by 2766 02:16:10,480 --> 02:16:14,160 Speaker 19: Jackson dominant in the air. Again. It's just a silly 2767 02:16:14,280 --> 02:16:17,720 Speaker 19: foul from Georgie. Didn't need to make the foul twenty 2768 02:16:17,760 --> 02:16:20,960 Speaker 19: five yards from gold dead at center, and this is 2769 02:16:21,000 --> 02:16:23,120 Speaker 19: the chance to Minnesota, maybe even looking forth from the 2770 02:16:23,160 --> 02:16:25,520 Speaker 19: set piece, and there was just a clip of the 2771 02:16:25,600 --> 02:16:29,440 Speaker 19: heels on long one a just a little reckless by Georgie. 2772 02:16:30,600 --> 02:16:33,560 Speaker 19: It's gonna be a chance for Minnesota now from about 2773 02:16:33,600 --> 02:16:35,400 Speaker 19: twenty five twenty eight yards. 2774 02:16:36,760 --> 02:16:39,040 Speaker 29: You got to learn from these, right, You cannot make 2775 02:16:39,120 --> 02:16:43,119 Speaker 29: these kind of fowls that close to goal. Just stand 2776 02:16:43,160 --> 02:16:46,280 Speaker 29: them up a little bit of patience. 2777 02:16:46,440 --> 02:16:48,720 Speaker 19: There was a tiet fair here back in August one 2778 02:16:48,840 --> 02:16:54,800 Speaker 19: nil to Minnesota in the second of the regular season games. 2779 02:16:56,760 --> 02:17:00,280 Speaker 19: Sounds missing the dps in that game. If memory serves now, 2780 02:17:00,360 --> 02:17:03,040 Speaker 19: Trianta has already shown that he's got a hammer of 2781 02:17:03,120 --> 02:17:06,080 Speaker 19: a right foot struck a ball just a couple of 2782 02:17:06,160 --> 02:17:10,119 Speaker 19: inches wide of Seffron Fry's goal. So can Steph make 2783 02:17:10,200 --> 02:17:16,640 Speaker 19: it big again. It's made so many saves in critical moments. 2784 02:17:16,680 --> 02:17:18,480 Speaker 19: But it's gonna be a free kick just right of 2785 02:17:18,600 --> 02:17:22,080 Speaker 19: center when the right foot of Triantis. Perea is still 2786 02:17:22,120 --> 02:17:24,800 Speaker 19: there as well, But based on the body language of Prayer, 2787 02:17:24,800 --> 02:17:26,080 Speaker 19: it doesn't look like he's gonna be the one. But 2788 02:17:26,120 --> 02:17:28,680 Speaker 19: he's gonna set the ball up. We'll see if he'll 2789 02:17:28,680 --> 02:17:30,480 Speaker 19: be Perea. Then Usually the player who sets up the 2790 02:17:30,520 --> 02:17:34,600 Speaker 19: ball player's going to strike it. But Prent Triantis looks 2791 02:17:34,680 --> 02:17:37,400 Speaker 19: like he's ready it comes, Pereer steps up. It's gonna 2792 02:17:37,400 --> 02:17:40,360 Speaker 19: be the left foot of Prayer just wide. For a 2793 02:17:40,440 --> 02:17:42,840 Speaker 19: moment I thought it was in. We'll try and see 2794 02:17:42,840 --> 02:17:45,520 Speaker 19: a replay and see how close that was. It's gonna 2795 02:17:45,520 --> 02:17:47,279 Speaker 19: be a goal kick sound as we're in the final 2796 02:17:47,360 --> 02:17:51,440 Speaker 19: seconds of the ninety nil nil. But that looked like 2797 02:17:51,480 --> 02:17:52,520 Speaker 19: he was heading in the top corner. 2798 02:17:55,240 --> 02:17:58,040 Speaker 30: That was a terrific strike. That was maybe one foot out. 2799 02:17:58,840 --> 02:18:00,680 Speaker 30: Fry seemed to get over there is a little bit 2800 02:18:00,760 --> 02:18:04,480 Speaker 30: high for his reach. Terrific strike. Again, This is why 2801 02:18:04,560 --> 02:18:06,480 Speaker 30: you do not want to give up a foul this 2802 02:18:06,680 --> 02:18:11,279 Speaker 30: late in the game. Get your body goal side, don't dive. 2803 02:18:11,160 --> 02:18:12,880 Speaker 19: In if you had Roy Keene on the field, he'd 2804 02:18:12,920 --> 02:18:15,440 Speaker 19: grab Georgie by the scruff of necket on the field 2805 02:18:15,600 --> 02:18:17,880 Speaker 19: or in the locker room, I'd pin him up after 2806 02:18:18,000 --> 02:18:18,879 Speaker 19: that foul, I. 2807 02:18:19,040 --> 02:18:22,720 Speaker 29: Think, which would teach him a valuable lesson. 2808 02:18:22,840 --> 02:18:24,400 Speaker 19: Pull down the lord and here comes Morris, kind of 2809 02:18:24,440 --> 02:18:27,160 Speaker 19: sound as niked at the death, strikes across the six 2810 02:18:27,280 --> 02:18:30,720 Speaker 19: doors ahead, point blank range. Again it goes over by 2811 02:18:30,840 --> 02:18:35,680 Speaker 19: Massovski felt like it was harder to missing score. It's 2812 02:18:35,720 --> 02:18:37,640 Speaker 19: four minutes of at a time, we're inside the at 2813 02:18:37,720 --> 02:18:39,720 Speaker 19: a time that could have been it for the Sounders. 2814 02:18:40,040 --> 02:18:41,840 Speaker 19: There's gonna be a goal kicks nil nil. 2815 02:18:42,560 --> 02:18:46,760 Speaker 30: Great ball down the right hand side, terrific cross, just 2816 02:18:46,840 --> 02:18:48,080 Speaker 30: a little deflection. 2817 02:18:49,520 --> 02:18:51,080 Speaker 29: Off the defender, but oh he just. 2818 02:18:51,120 --> 02:18:54,240 Speaker 19: Had to guide it in. Yeah, six shots out. Almost 2819 02:18:54,440 --> 02:18:57,720 Speaker 19: just pulled himself away from it instead of getting over 2820 02:18:57,800 --> 02:18:58,400 Speaker 19: and attacking it. 2821 02:18:58,480 --> 02:19:01,360 Speaker 29: But yeah yy ay, yeah yi. 2822 02:19:01,720 --> 02:19:05,080 Speaker 30: Great ball from Jordan Morris, another one, Another great service 2823 02:19:05,120 --> 02:19:06,440 Speaker 30: from Jordan to Massovsky. 2824 02:19:07,000 --> 02:19:08,160 Speaker 29: There's time for one more. 2825 02:19:09,480 --> 02:19:11,720 Speaker 19: Or gets flicked forward. Can Masoski make up for the 2826 02:19:11,840 --> 02:19:14,000 Speaker 19: two misses he's had? Here goes Win's the ball, leave it, 2827 02:19:14,080 --> 02:19:16,880 Speaker 19: Georgia leave it off side, ball goes over the top 2828 02:19:17,560 --> 02:19:19,560 Speaker 19: it goes wide, but I think it's about five yards 2829 02:19:19,600 --> 02:19:22,760 Speaker 19: off side. Georgia maybe just should have left that one. 2830 02:19:25,200 --> 02:19:30,520 Speaker 29: Yeah, I don't know, yes, yeah, George, Yeah yeah. 2831 02:19:30,600 --> 02:19:34,280 Speaker 30: And that's that's a moment where Missos's got to scream 2832 02:19:34,360 --> 02:19:36,000 Speaker 30: at him to get out of the way, and then 2833 02:19:36,000 --> 02:19:38,680 Speaker 30: we have a good opportunity for Danny to go in 2834 02:19:38,840 --> 02:19:39,320 Speaker 30: one on one. 2835 02:19:39,520 --> 02:19:41,360 Speaker 19: Two and a half minutes left, Danny Leavitt coming on. 2836 02:19:41,440 --> 02:19:44,560 Speaker 19: Here's a move for the penalties. It's a tough spot 2837 02:19:44,640 --> 02:19:48,039 Speaker 19: to come in when it's cold. You come in the expectations. 2838 02:19:48,040 --> 02:19:50,080 Speaker 19: You gotta take one of the five. Now, got to 2839 02:19:50,120 --> 02:19:52,880 Speaker 19: think about that. Yeah, all gets lost on but the 2840 02:19:52,879 --> 02:19:54,640 Speaker 19: sound is stuff work to do defensively? Is the ball 2841 02:19:54,680 --> 02:19:58,000 Speaker 19: bounced around far side Minnesota's left sound has come back 2842 02:19:58,000 --> 02:20:00,400 Speaker 19: to defend top of the eighteen yard box ball ounces, 2843 02:20:00,920 --> 02:20:04,720 Speaker 19: we're pushing the back by Perea on rolled on. He's 2844 02:20:04,760 --> 02:20:08,000 Speaker 19: just clinging his face right now, refere He's just gonna 2845 02:20:08,040 --> 02:20:09,720 Speaker 19: hold things up. It looks like to be a yellow 2846 02:20:09,840 --> 02:20:14,240 Speaker 19: card in there. Roldan holds his throat. We'll see if 2847 02:20:14,240 --> 02:20:16,199 Speaker 19: anything else is going to come of that with VR, 2848 02:20:16,360 --> 02:20:19,080 Speaker 19: but right now it's the yellow card for Perea. He 2849 02:20:19,240 --> 02:20:23,920 Speaker 19: goes down to the ground, so he pushes Yema at 2850 02:20:23,959 --> 02:20:26,879 Speaker 19: the way and there's a elbow straight to the next 2851 02:20:26,920 --> 02:20:28,880 Speaker 19: So we'll see if var looks at that and thinks 2852 02:20:28,920 --> 02:20:31,879 Speaker 19: it's cynical. It wasn't leading elbow. I've got to say, Pete, 2853 02:20:31,879 --> 02:20:33,160 Speaker 19: you look at the replay. You tell me. 2854 02:20:35,640 --> 02:20:39,000 Speaker 29: He definitely saw Alex coming, definitely got the elbow up. 2855 02:20:39,680 --> 02:20:41,800 Speaker 29: The question is did he extend it? 2856 02:20:42,480 --> 02:20:44,240 Speaker 19: But of course he goes down. He's injured now, so 2857 02:20:47,720 --> 02:20:51,560 Speaker 19: so we'll see what change that will make for Brian. 2858 02:20:52,160 --> 02:20:53,840 Speaker 19: Prayer's going to see this one out. I don't think 2859 02:20:53,840 --> 02:20:55,480 Speaker 19: he's gonna want to come off because it's two minutes 2860 02:20:55,520 --> 02:20:57,600 Speaker 19: to be come off, and I'm gonna double check my 2861 02:20:58,400 --> 02:21:02,240 Speaker 19: my rules here because So came off and it didn't 2862 02:21:02,280 --> 02:21:03,640 Speaker 19: feel like two minutes at all. 2863 02:21:05,080 --> 02:21:05,880 Speaker 29: He came right back on. 2864 02:21:06,040 --> 02:21:08,040 Speaker 19: He came right back on. So minute left of the four. 2865 02:21:08,400 --> 02:21:13,280 Speaker 19: We're heading towards penalties. Danny Laver is on, Oh Bet 2866 02:21:13,480 --> 02:21:16,920 Speaker 19: is off, surprising Pete. O Bett has been there to 2867 02:21:17,000 --> 02:21:18,240 Speaker 19: take penalties in the past. 2868 02:21:19,480 --> 02:21:21,840 Speaker 29: You know what, the team has a lot of confidence. 2869 02:21:22,600 --> 02:21:25,720 Speaker 30: The players always talk about how well Danny Labor strikes 2870 02:21:26,080 --> 02:21:26,720 Speaker 30: a free kick. 2871 02:21:26,840 --> 02:21:29,440 Speaker 19: So ball down the line, Here comes more his final 2872 02:21:29,560 --> 02:21:31,160 Speaker 19: chance for the Sounders. Can they make it? Cuts it 2873 02:21:31,200 --> 02:21:33,520 Speaker 19: back top of the box. Here's Georgie strikes it. Oh, 2874 02:21:33,560 --> 02:21:36,560 Speaker 19: it's a great block. It's a wonderful block by a 2875 02:21:36,640 --> 02:21:42,760 Speaker 19: combination of long one, ADAZM, boxel and Georgie. It felt 2876 02:21:42,840 --> 02:21:46,280 Speaker 19: like the the spotlight was there for him. It was 2877 02:21:46,400 --> 02:21:49,880 Speaker 19: opening up. He stepped in well, struck it well. It 2878 02:21:50,000 --> 02:21:52,879 Speaker 19: goes over the top. Corner kick and this most likely 2879 02:21:52,959 --> 02:21:55,480 Speaker 19: will be the final play of this game. Can the 2880 02:21:55,600 --> 02:21:59,000 Speaker 19: Sounders take advantage? Final play? As we tick towards the 2881 02:21:59,120 --> 02:22:01,280 Speaker 19: four minute mark, and whatever the referee adds on on 2882 02:22:01,360 --> 02:22:04,240 Speaker 19: top of the four, it's gonna be Rusnak far side 2883 02:22:04,280 --> 02:22:06,720 Speaker 19: the right. It's gonna whip it in towards the near stick. 2884 02:22:06,800 --> 02:22:10,039 Speaker 19: Ball bounced around. Reagan's gonna knock it back to Alex. 2885 02:22:10,080 --> 02:22:12,080 Speaker 19: He's gonna put his foot on the ball, plays the 2886 02:22:12,120 --> 02:22:14,000 Speaker 19: ball into it. Brother Christian, look give and go with 2887 02:22:14,400 --> 02:22:18,000 Speaker 19: Ruznak off the shins of Mark Nick it goes. Actually 2888 02:22:18,040 --> 02:22:22,640 Speaker 19: it's Pere who's still hobbling around. Chransfer rolled on now 2889 02:22:22,760 --> 02:22:26,120 Speaker 19: to launch it in from a long throw. Can the 2890 02:22:26,280 --> 02:22:28,880 Speaker 19: Sounders do it again? I remember was that the galaxy 2891 02:22:28,879 --> 02:22:31,480 Speaker 19: a couple of years ago. Is a flick onto Christian 2892 02:22:31,560 --> 02:22:36,280 Speaker 19: roll down to solidify the Sounders playoff spot at lumin Field. 2893 02:22:36,320 --> 02:22:38,080 Speaker 19: I think that came off from a long throw from 2894 02:22:38,640 --> 02:22:42,360 Speaker 19: Alex on the same side and his right. He's gonna 2895 02:22:42,560 --> 02:22:44,520 Speaker 19: step in and he's gonna launch it. Long ball comes 2896 02:22:44,560 --> 02:22:48,400 Speaker 19: in now towards Jackson Ball bouncing around. Christian knocks it in, 2897 02:22:48,800 --> 02:22:51,880 Speaker 19: challenged by Jackson Ball, bounce you around, It's missed, and 2898 02:22:51,959 --> 02:22:54,640 Speaker 19: then skips up and the referee it's gonna call the 2899 02:22:54,720 --> 02:22:57,560 Speaker 19: fowl on box all. Jordan goes down. That doesn't look 2900 02:22:57,640 --> 02:23:01,120 Speaker 19: too good. Maybe it's more it's a knocking a twist 2901 02:23:01,240 --> 02:23:03,600 Speaker 19: versus anything more serious. But it's going to take a 2902 02:23:03,640 --> 02:23:06,240 Speaker 19: moment just to compose himself. It's a free kick for Minnesota. 2903 02:23:06,560 --> 02:23:10,040 Speaker 19: We're at the five minute mark. It's gonna be a 2904 02:23:10,120 --> 02:23:14,360 Speaker 19: final change for Minnesota as they make their move now 2905 02:23:14,440 --> 02:23:19,400 Speaker 19: as well. It's gonna be DA's the big left footed 2906 02:23:19,520 --> 02:23:24,400 Speaker 19: central defender for Julian gressel So, a player who's got 2907 02:23:24,440 --> 02:23:27,840 Speaker 19: a ton of experience, bleached blonde hair, jogs on the field. 2908 02:23:28,000 --> 02:23:32,080 Speaker 19: Former Atlanta Man of course, Vancouver, Miami, Columbus DC. He 2909 02:23:32,240 --> 02:23:33,400 Speaker 19: kind of lost his way a little bit over the 2910 02:23:33,440 --> 02:23:36,640 Speaker 19: last few years, but he's gonna come on now. I'm 2911 02:23:36,680 --> 02:23:39,320 Speaker 19: most likely lined up for a penalty as Jordan Morrice 2912 02:23:39,400 --> 02:23:42,120 Speaker 19: hobbles away. It's not gonna bow too well for Brian 2913 02:23:42,160 --> 02:23:46,320 Speaker 19: Schmittz who he's trying to pick his five. So we'll 2914 02:23:46,640 --> 02:23:48,960 Speaker 19: look at this five and the referees whistle goes, So 2915 02:23:50,040 --> 02:23:52,320 Speaker 19: we're not gonna leave you right now. The players will 2916 02:23:52,320 --> 02:23:55,959 Speaker 19: go back, they'll get some fluids, they'll get some wrests, 2917 02:23:56,000 --> 02:23:59,760 Speaker 19: they'll shake out their legs. It straight to PK. So 2918 02:24:00,000 --> 02:24:02,640 Speaker 19: the first game of the first round of the MLS playoffs, 2919 02:24:02,720 --> 02:24:08,160 Speaker 19: nil nil after ninety and we go to penalties. Last 2920 02:24:08,240 --> 02:24:11,920 Speaker 19: year this time first game nil nil against Houston Sounders 2921 02:24:12,000 --> 02:24:17,240 Speaker 19: one on penalties. Again. I'm gonna have memory here, twelve 2922 02:24:17,320 --> 02:24:18,959 Speaker 19: out of I think it was six out of six 2923 02:24:19,080 --> 02:24:20,680 Speaker 19: if I remember credit because think it was twelve. Maybe 2924 02:24:20,680 --> 02:24:22,400 Speaker 19: it was five and then a seven. But he was 2925 02:24:22,440 --> 02:24:25,000 Speaker 19: twelve out of twelve between those two penalty shoots out. 2926 02:24:25,120 --> 02:24:29,680 Speaker 19: So the confidence is there for the Sounders and Ken 2927 02:24:29,840 --> 02:24:34,440 Speaker 19: Stephen Fry. As Andrew Thomas has done so many times 2928 02:24:34,520 --> 02:24:36,680 Speaker 19: in League's Cup and US Open Cup, can he be 2929 02:24:36,800 --> 02:24:38,920 Speaker 19: the hero from the penalty spot? Well, let's get your 2930 02:24:38,959 --> 02:24:40,680 Speaker 19: thoughts about the game in general p before we jump 2931 02:24:40,720 --> 02:24:44,600 Speaker 19: into the penalties and strategy and players. What's brance Schmetza 2932 02:24:44,600 --> 02:24:45,520 Speaker 19: made it his ninety well. 2933 02:24:45,560 --> 02:24:48,120 Speaker 30: The first forty five minutes each team was feeling the 2934 02:24:48,200 --> 02:24:51,040 Speaker 30: other team out, trying to find their way. Second half 2935 02:24:51,160 --> 02:24:55,480 Speaker 30: elevated for both teams. Seattle Brian Schmetzer made some terrific subs, 2936 02:24:55,879 --> 02:25:00,000 Speaker 30: pushing Jordan wide, bringing in massofse He had created three opportunities. 2937 02:25:00,040 --> 02:25:01,760 Speaker 29: Shortan had three trific crosses, two. 2938 02:25:01,680 --> 02:25:04,680 Speaker 30: To Morris, one on the cutback to Georgie Manoono just 2939 02:25:04,720 --> 02:25:08,400 Speaker 30: didn't get there quite quick enough. So that is tough 2940 02:25:08,480 --> 02:25:11,480 Speaker 30: when you get good quality chances that you don't put away. 2941 02:25:11,920 --> 02:25:15,280 Speaker 30: Now we're back to square one on penalty kicks. I'll 2942 02:25:15,320 --> 02:25:19,920 Speaker 30: tell you again, Saint Clair for me, he has an 2943 02:25:20,080 --> 02:25:23,960 Speaker 30: arrogance about him. Positively, I'm saying that positively when it 2944 02:25:24,000 --> 02:25:25,000 Speaker 30: comes to penalty kicks. 2945 02:25:25,440 --> 02:25:26,320 Speaker 29: He's a bit brash. 2946 02:25:26,680 --> 02:25:26,800 Speaker 27: Uh. 2947 02:25:27,200 --> 02:25:30,840 Speaker 29: He's athletic. So Seattle needs. 2948 02:25:30,680 --> 02:25:32,680 Speaker 30: To get off to a good start with the pks 2949 02:25:32,760 --> 02:25:36,120 Speaker 30: meaning don't miss right and if Stefan Fry can get one, 2950 02:25:36,200 --> 02:25:37,160 Speaker 30: to put the pressure on him. 2951 02:25:38,240 --> 02:25:40,640 Speaker 19: Okay, So I'm gonna test you now on this okay, 2952 02:25:41,600 --> 02:25:46,000 Speaker 19: five penalty takes the first five. As we look at 2953 02:25:46,040 --> 02:25:51,000 Speaker 19: our as we look at our lineup here at Pete, 2954 02:25:51,640 --> 02:25:53,000 Speaker 19: who are you going to take? If you were the 2955 02:25:53,040 --> 02:25:56,120 Speaker 19: coach right now and every play wanted to take one, 2956 02:25:56,120 --> 02:25:56,760 Speaker 19: who's your five? 2957 02:25:57,200 --> 02:25:59,959 Speaker 29: Well, yeah, let me get back to my microphone. 2958 02:26:00,200 --> 02:26:05,560 Speaker 30: Jackson, Reagan, Danny Label, obviously, Christian and Alex and then 2959 02:26:05,640 --> 02:26:06,200 Speaker 30: number five. 2960 02:26:07,080 --> 02:26:10,600 Speaker 29: I think you asked, Jordan, are you okay? Do you 2961 02:26:10,680 --> 02:26:13,480 Speaker 29: want it? Albert Rusnik? Yeah, so he's got So. 2962 02:26:13,520 --> 02:26:16,240 Speaker 19: You've got six obvious ye at the gates. Dana Massosi, 2963 02:26:16,280 --> 02:26:18,840 Speaker 19: your top man got to be up there as well, 2964 02:26:18,920 --> 02:26:23,640 Speaker 19: but probably not a part of your top five. I 2965 02:26:23,680 --> 02:26:26,120 Speaker 19: would say that that we could play process of elimination 2966 02:26:26,280 --> 02:26:27,360 Speaker 19: new who's not in your top five? 2967 02:26:27,640 --> 02:26:27,959 Speaker 6: Correct? 2968 02:26:28,000 --> 02:26:30,920 Speaker 19: Yamar's not in your top five. Georgie is not in 2969 02:26:30,959 --> 02:26:34,040 Speaker 19: your top five, obviously, Steph. So if the rest of 2970 02:26:34,120 --> 02:26:37,039 Speaker 19: the players, of the rest of the seven could. 2971 02:26:36,840 --> 02:26:40,439 Speaker 30: Be any five of those, yeah, and I'd say Massovski's 2972 02:26:40,640 --> 02:26:43,480 Speaker 30: probably not taking one, seventh, maybe the seventh. 2973 02:26:43,560 --> 02:26:45,440 Speaker 19: Yeah, Well, we really lined up. 2974 02:26:45,840 --> 02:26:52,480 Speaker 30: We know Albert, we know Alex, we know Jackson. Labor 2975 02:26:52,560 --> 02:26:55,400 Speaker 30: seems to be the reason they subdim in. So I 2976 02:26:55,440 --> 02:27:00,400 Speaker 30: would assume that Christian Morris or. 2977 02:27:00,400 --> 02:27:03,040 Speaker 19: We'll find out it's gonna happen right now. As the 2978 02:27:03,160 --> 02:27:05,760 Speaker 19: Sounders players and the Minnesota players make their way to 2979 02:27:05,800 --> 02:27:07,960 Speaker 19: the center of the park, Saint Clair and Fry have 2980 02:27:08,000 --> 02:27:13,680 Speaker 19: already made their way to their respective positions. So do 2981 02:27:13,720 --> 02:27:14,879 Speaker 19: you go first or second? 2982 02:27:17,200 --> 02:27:17,480 Speaker 29: First? 2983 02:27:17,879 --> 02:27:22,240 Speaker 19: Yep? Put the pressure on the other team. So you 2984 02:27:22,320 --> 02:27:26,040 Speaker 19: win the toss, you get to choose, and the Sounders 2985 02:27:26,840 --> 02:27:29,880 Speaker 19: will go first. Saint Clair's in the goal is just 2986 02:27:30,040 --> 02:27:32,760 Speaker 19: marching in a big body of Saint Clair's gotta be imposing, 2987 02:27:32,840 --> 02:27:37,120 Speaker 19: standing and is all yellow kit and it's gonna be 2988 02:27:37,200 --> 02:27:40,800 Speaker 19: Albert Rossneck's gonna be a first man up. So Albert 2989 02:27:40,879 --> 02:27:44,600 Speaker 19: will step up, of course, one of the prime penalty 2990 02:27:44,640 --> 02:27:51,440 Speaker 19: takers for the Sounders eleven goals on his season. Of course, 2991 02:27:51,520 --> 02:27:55,160 Speaker 19: one of that goal against Let it come Madrid as well. 2992 02:27:55,200 --> 02:27:58,720 Speaker 19: But here comes rusnak Now four steps away, some short 2993 02:27:58,760 --> 02:28:02,120 Speaker 19: steps steps up, strike sit right down the middle. Saint 2994 02:28:02,160 --> 02:28:05,000 Speaker 19: Claire went to his right, confident penalty, just clipped it 2995 02:28:05,080 --> 02:28:07,080 Speaker 19: down the middle. Well, noil Sounders. 2996 02:28:07,280 --> 02:28:08,240 Speaker 29: That's why you go first. 2997 02:28:08,640 --> 02:28:10,840 Speaker 19: You go in and you silence the crowd. 2998 02:28:11,080 --> 02:28:14,520 Speaker 30: Yep, yep, silence the crowd. Send a good message. It's 2999 02:28:14,560 --> 02:28:18,680 Speaker 30: a terrific ball right down the middle. Get you off 3000 02:28:18,720 --> 02:28:19,400 Speaker 30: to a good start. 3001 02:28:20,480 --> 02:28:24,760 Speaker 19: Sounders on the board first with Albert Rozneck. Now Minnesota 3002 02:28:24,879 --> 02:28:28,600 Speaker 19: got the pressure at home to step up and make 3003 02:28:28,720 --> 02:28:32,960 Speaker 19: one happen. It's gonna be your Boa. Their main man 3004 02:28:33,040 --> 02:28:42,760 Speaker 19: as well, he's gonna step up. It's gonna be your Ba. 3005 02:28:43,760 --> 02:28:47,640 Speaker 19: With his right foot step and Fry all in pink 3006 02:28:47,720 --> 02:28:50,280 Speaker 19: tonight standing on his goal line. Your Boa standing right 3007 02:28:50,360 --> 02:28:52,640 Speaker 19: next to the ball. The referee blows a whistle. Now 3008 02:28:52,720 --> 02:28:56,080 Speaker 19: as you take one, two, three, four, five steps back, 3009 02:28:56,160 --> 02:28:59,720 Speaker 19: sets himself up, does your Boa. Nine goals on his season, 3010 02:29:00,680 --> 02:29:04,280 Speaker 19: arms by his side, Silence across this packed house at 3011 02:29:04,320 --> 02:29:06,680 Speaker 19: Alliance Field. He steps up, takes a step and then 3012 02:29:06,800 --> 02:29:09,879 Speaker 19: rolls into the corner. Confidently. Fry went to his right, 3013 02:29:10,000 --> 02:29:12,280 Speaker 19: ball went to his left. In the corner, it goes 3014 02:29:13,160 --> 02:29:13,560 Speaker 19: one one. 3015 02:29:14,760 --> 02:29:19,480 Speaker 30: It's a very good finished, confident neither neither goalkeeper really 3016 02:29:19,520 --> 02:29:22,840 Speaker 30: had a chance on either one. Two good penalty kicks. 3017 02:29:24,120 --> 02:29:27,160 Speaker 29: Now had had Fray gone the right way, it wasn't 3018 02:29:27,400 --> 02:29:30,400 Speaker 29: right in the corner. Two feet off the post. 3019 02:29:30,600 --> 02:29:35,119 Speaker 19: It comes Alex rolled down, another confident penalty taker throughout 3020 02:29:35,160 --> 02:29:38,400 Speaker 19: his time at the Sounders, of course, scored that penalty 3021 02:29:38,440 --> 02:29:42,280 Speaker 19: in the league's cup final. That second goal all but tied. 3022 02:29:43,520 --> 02:29:46,640 Speaker 19: Wrap things up. As Sinclair comes off his goal line, 3023 02:29:46,680 --> 02:29:50,840 Speaker 19: just forcing the referee to kind of question the placement 3024 02:29:50,920 --> 02:29:54,800 Speaker 19: of the ball. Alex just drop head head games right. 3025 02:29:54,879 --> 02:29:58,120 Speaker 19: There was slightly off the mark and now all Alex 3026 02:29:58,160 --> 02:29:59,800 Speaker 19: wants to do is wrap this one into the back 3027 02:29:59,840 --> 02:30:04,000 Speaker 19: of that as Saint Clair moves on the line straight 3028 02:30:04,040 --> 02:30:07,480 Speaker 19: down the middle. It's a poor penalty from Alex. Confident 3029 02:30:07,840 --> 02:30:10,920 Speaker 19: by Saint Clairy just stood there, waited. The boy went 3030 02:30:10,959 --> 02:30:15,320 Speaker 19: down the middle, just hit Saint Clair and that's a 3031 02:30:15,400 --> 02:30:16,200 Speaker 19: miss for the Sounders. 3032 02:30:16,360 --> 02:30:19,800 Speaker 30: And he's pointing to his head, meaning he just got 3033 02:30:19,879 --> 02:30:23,920 Speaker 30: in Alex's head by making them move the ball. These 3034 02:30:23,959 --> 02:30:27,120 Speaker 30: penalty kicks, there's a lot of psychology, a lot of 3035 02:30:27,680 --> 02:30:28,959 Speaker 30: mental battles. 3036 02:30:31,360 --> 02:30:31,520 Speaker 2: There. 3037 02:30:31,520 --> 02:30:33,480 Speaker 19: It comes Triantis. He has a powerful right foot, as 3038 02:30:33,520 --> 02:30:35,120 Speaker 19: he mentioned. We sawt a couple of times in that 3039 02:30:36,600 --> 02:30:42,240 Speaker 19: ninety minutes. Now the Australian U twenty two initiative player 3040 02:30:42,600 --> 02:30:44,600 Speaker 19: two goals in his campaign. He's got a chance now 3041 02:30:44,640 --> 02:30:49,560 Speaker 19: to step up and put Minnesota in the lead. Silence 3042 02:30:49,640 --> 02:30:52,199 Speaker 19: goes across the crowd again. Stut To step by Triantis 3043 02:30:52,240 --> 02:30:54,279 Speaker 19: and he goes right in the corner. Really good, confident 3044 02:30:54,360 --> 02:30:57,760 Speaker 19: penalty Fry went the right way, couldn't quite get there, 3045 02:30:57,840 --> 02:31:02,600 Speaker 19: buried into the side netting to one. Minnesota well struck 3046 02:31:03,000 --> 02:31:04,080 Speaker 19: three feet off the ground. 3047 02:31:04,680 --> 02:31:08,720 Speaker 29: It was some good pace. Probably does go the right way, 3048 02:31:08,800 --> 02:31:11,640 Speaker 29: but that's tucked right next to the post. 3049 02:31:15,160 --> 02:31:18,560 Speaker 19: So Minnesota lee two goals to one. Third penalty coming up. 3050 02:31:19,440 --> 02:31:21,600 Speaker 19: We'll see if Saint Clair will now trying to get 3051 02:31:21,640 --> 02:31:26,400 Speaker 19: in the head of Jackson Reagan, who's been so confident 3052 02:31:26,640 --> 02:31:31,920 Speaker 19: in his penalty kicks, where if you're just standing over 3053 02:31:32,040 --> 02:31:36,160 Speaker 19: Jackson making sure his spot is right. Got a goal 3054 02:31:36,240 --> 02:31:39,600 Speaker 19: last week, of course in New York. Can he get 3055 02:31:39,640 --> 02:31:43,720 Speaker 19: a goal here for the Sounders. Takes a step up slowly, 3056 02:31:43,800 --> 02:31:46,119 Speaker 19: but surely that wraps it in the corners. Come as 3057 02:31:46,240 --> 02:31:53,119 Speaker 19: you like, Jackson Reagan. Crowd goes hush, Boll finds the corner. 3058 02:31:53,480 --> 02:31:56,560 Speaker 19: Sounders get the second to to two.

Well, 3258 02:42:44,640 --> 02:42:45,320 Speaker 6: where forget about it? 3259 02:42:45,400 --> 02:42:45,560 Speaker 7: Yeah? 3260 02:42:45,560 --> 02:42:46,440 Speaker 2: Where's for you? 3261 02:42:46,720 --> 02:42:46,760 Speaker 15: Like? 3262 02:42:46,840 --> 02:42:49,320 Speaker 3: Where where is right now? Because me the first thing 3263 02:42:49,480 --> 02:42:52,080 Speaker 3: we said after we hit the off button and we 3264 02:42:52,120 --> 02:42:56,279 Speaker 3: went to commercial break was moose because I mean ninety 3265 02:42:56,400 --> 02:43:01,600 Speaker 3: first minute Jordan Morris two accept crosses on the right side, 3266 02:43:01,920 --> 02:43:05,000 Speaker 3: and the second one in the ninety first minute goes 3267 02:43:05,240 --> 02:43:07,160 Speaker 3: right to Mazowski in front of goal and if you 3268 02:43:07,600 --> 02:43:10,280 Speaker 3: just head it down, it's into the back of the 3269 02:43:10,400 --> 02:43:14,080 Speaker 3: net and you get the very very end winner. But 3270 02:43:14,200 --> 02:43:16,160 Speaker 3: he couldn't any there was an earlier one too for move. 3271 02:43:16,280 --> 02:43:18,520 Speaker 3: So that's that's where my head's at right now. Where's 3272 02:43:18,520 --> 02:43:19,360 Speaker 3: your head out right now? 3273 02:43:19,520 --> 02:43:22,560 Speaker 5: Well, as a former striker, I've missed easier ones than that, 3274 02:43:22,800 --> 02:43:25,080 Speaker 5: and I know it's difficult to do. And he came 3275 02:43:25,160 --> 02:43:26,760 Speaker 5: on as a sub and he did have two good 3276 02:43:26,840 --> 02:43:29,000 Speaker 5: chances and normally he would get at least one of those. 3277 02:43:29,240 --> 02:43:32,080 Speaker 5: Totally get it where my head's at as I normally 3278 02:43:32,160 --> 02:43:35,200 Speaker 5: get at least something right with our analytics and what 3279 02:43:35,280 --> 02:43:37,680 Speaker 5: we're trying to say here, and I got nothing right tonight. 3280 02:43:38,080 --> 02:43:40,320 Speaker 5: So we can talk about the game all day long, 3281 02:43:40,440 --> 02:43:43,040 Speaker 5: before after and in between, but at the end of 3282 02:43:43,080 --> 02:43:46,480 Speaker 5: the day, sometimes things happen all right. And I mean 3283 02:43:46,760 --> 02:43:50,879 Speaker 5: you can say in the penalty shootout, Saint Clair got 3284 02:43:50,920 --> 02:43:54,160 Speaker 5: into Alex's head big time by saying, oh the ball's 3285 02:43:54,200 --> 02:43:56,760 Speaker 5: not on the middle of the spot. Nobody ever puts 3286 02:43:56,800 --> 02:43:58,000 Speaker 5: it on the middle of the spot. They put it 3287 02:43:58,080 --> 02:43:59,800 Speaker 5: on the front edge of the spot. That's what every 3288 02:44:00,160 --> 02:44:02,800 Speaker 5: he does. But every single time somebody was going to 3289 02:44:02,879 --> 02:44:04,960 Speaker 5: take a kick, he was going up and asking the ref, hey, 3290 02:44:05,480 --> 02:44:08,720 Speaker 5: something something something, all right, yeah, just clarifying. All he's 3291 02:44:08,760 --> 02:44:10,760 Speaker 5: trying to do is mess up their rhythm. And he 3292 02:44:10,879 --> 02:44:12,680 Speaker 5: did a good job of it. And you know what, 3293 02:44:12,760 --> 02:44:14,560 Speaker 5: you got to give him some credit for that. But 3294 02:44:15,480 --> 02:44:18,440 Speaker 5: at the end of the day, they everybody, whether it's 3295 02:44:18,520 --> 02:44:22,000 Speaker 5: Danny Jordan, Jordan had a couple of chances there was 3296 02:44:22,160 --> 02:44:24,840 Speaker 5: everybody on the field could have done something a little 3297 02:44:24,879 --> 02:44:27,760 Speaker 5: bit better to make the result a little bit different. 3298 02:44:27,959 --> 02:44:30,320 Speaker 5: That's and yeah, you know, it wasn't just one person. 3299 02:44:30,440 --> 02:44:33,840 Speaker 5: So they just need to regroup and come back, get 3300 02:44:33,879 --> 02:44:36,440 Speaker 5: the win, and then go back there and take care 3301 02:44:36,440 --> 02:44:36,840 Speaker 5: of business. 3302 02:44:37,000 --> 02:44:39,680 Speaker 3: That's an interesting point. I think it's well put chance 3303 02:44:39,800 --> 02:44:42,160 Speaker 3: the element of everybody. You kind of look at a 3304 02:44:42,240 --> 02:44:44,680 Speaker 3: moment and say, man could have been better there. And 3305 02:44:44,840 --> 02:44:47,480 Speaker 3: I think I think, you know, even to the defending side, 3306 02:44:47,520 --> 02:44:51,200 Speaker 3: where there was early big communication breakdowns with Jackson, Reagan 3307 02:44:51,240 --> 02:44:53,800 Speaker 3: and Yamar and lots of players along the back line, 3308 02:44:54,200 --> 02:44:55,480 Speaker 3: and at the end of the day, it was an 3309 02:44:55,520 --> 02:44:59,520 Speaker 3: interesting first half. Yeah, the Sounders had sixty two percent possession, 3310 02:44:59,720 --> 02:45:02,680 Speaker 3: which is the usual number for Minnesota's thirty eight. It 3311 02:45:02,879 --> 02:45:05,320 Speaker 3: felt more open in the first half, and it sort 3312 02:45:05,320 --> 02:45:07,879 Speaker 3: of felt for long stretches of that first half like, Okay, 3313 02:45:07,920 --> 02:45:10,480 Speaker 3: if you're gonna get Minnesota, it's right now where they're 3314 02:45:10,480 --> 02:45:13,360 Speaker 3: opening up. They did contain themselves and play a lot 3315 02:45:13,480 --> 02:45:16,199 Speaker 3: more like their normal Minnesota team in the second half, 3316 02:45:16,520 --> 02:45:18,400 Speaker 3: but it's just you look at a lot of those 3317 02:45:18,440 --> 02:45:20,560 Speaker 3: opportunities and say, boy, should have had that, should have 3318 02:45:20,600 --> 02:45:20,800 Speaker 3: had that. 3319 02:45:21,120 --> 02:45:24,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, Well, I love Paul Rothrock, but the one thing 3320 02:45:24,560 --> 02:45:26,160 Speaker 5: I wish I would have seen him do is he 3321 02:45:26,280 --> 02:45:28,039 Speaker 5: kept getting the ball out wide and then just playing 3322 02:45:28,080 --> 02:45:30,080 Speaker 5: it back to Neuwho And I just wanted him to 3323 02:45:30,200 --> 02:45:33,080 Speaker 5: take a little step to his right and whip it across, 3324 02:45:33,360 --> 02:45:35,160 Speaker 5: whip it in, whip it in, whip it in, get 3325 02:45:35,200 --> 02:45:38,200 Speaker 5: the ball in the box, make your strikers make their runs, 3326 02:45:38,480 --> 02:45:40,320 Speaker 5: or at least he's getting the ball in there, and 3327 02:45:40,360 --> 02:45:42,480 Speaker 5: they've got to learn to go where the ball is 3328 02:45:42,520 --> 02:45:44,520 Speaker 5: going to go. I wish I would have seen that 3329 02:45:44,560 --> 02:45:46,120 Speaker 5: a little bit more. It would have been nice to 3330 02:45:46,160 --> 02:45:49,040 Speaker 5: see Georgie maybe come in a little bit earlier so 3331 02:45:49,280 --> 02:45:52,600 Speaker 5: he had a chance to run at somebody. He did 3332 02:45:52,640 --> 02:45:54,960 Speaker 5: not get the ball out wide, not once when he 3333 02:45:55,120 --> 02:45:57,480 Speaker 5: was on the field, so that was a bit unfortunate 3334 02:45:57,600 --> 02:45:58,840 Speaker 5: because I think he could have just. 3335 02:45:58,959 --> 02:46:01,080 Speaker 6: Run, you know, ran right by the diffult. 3336 02:46:01,120 --> 02:46:02,680 Speaker 3: I want to ask you about the good things that 3337 02:46:02,760 --> 02:46:04,200 Speaker 3: we did see in this match, because I think there's 3338 02:46:04,200 --> 02:46:06,120 Speaker 3: a lot of things that this teams needs to improve on, 3339 02:46:06,240 --> 02:46:08,320 Speaker 3: but there are some good elements we can take from 3340 02:46:08,360 --> 02:46:10,360 Speaker 3: this and some good moments that we have down here, 3341 02:46:10,720 --> 02:46:14,600 Speaker 3: especially coming late in this game. Boy, it's just it's 3342 02:46:14,680 --> 02:46:17,200 Speaker 3: unfortunate because we were gearing up to be able to 3343 02:46:17,280 --> 02:46:19,600 Speaker 3: say that our Emerald Queen Casino play. The match was 3344 02:46:19,600 --> 02:46:22,720 Speaker 3: a mooseheader and really looked like it was gonna come 3345 02:46:22,800 --> 02:46:25,600 Speaker 3: in the ninety first minute, but unfortunately does not go in. 3346 02:46:25,720 --> 02:46:27,920 Speaker 3: It goes to penalty kicks, and that is where Minnesota 3347 02:46:28,080 --> 02:46:31,480 Speaker 3: wins tonight three to two in penalties. I will mention 3348 02:46:31,600 --> 02:46:33,720 Speaker 3: that for each game to play, the match is presented 3349 02:46:33,720 --> 02:46:36,160 Speaker 3: by Emerald Queen Casino, the betting capital of the Northwest. 3350 02:46:36,480 --> 02:46:40,320 Speaker 3: Just didn't have that tonight.

It's a 3418 02:50:10,240 --> 02:50:13,440 Speaker 3: best of three series. Game two will be next Monday 3419 02:50:13,520 --> 02:50:16,080 Speaker 3: night at Loomin Field. We'll talk about that coming up, 3420 02:50:16,320 --> 02:50:19,360 Speaker 3: but for Game one, it is a loss in penalty kicks, 3421 02:50:19,760 --> 02:50:23,720 Speaker 3: three to two in penalties after zero zero in ninety minutes. 3422 02:50:24,000 --> 02:50:26,880 Speaker 3: Dame Saint Clair, who might be very well, might be 3423 02:50:27,000 --> 02:50:29,240 Speaker 3: probably I think he's gonna get my vote goalkeeper of 3424 02:50:29,280 --> 02:50:32,680 Speaker 3: the Year in Major League Soccer. Fantastic penalty kick shootout 3425 02:50:33,000 --> 02:50:36,320 Speaker 3: and the Minnesota Loons win it. All right, let's get 3426 02:50:36,320 --> 02:50:38,440 Speaker 3: to some good things that the Sounders can try to 3427 02:50:38,480 --> 02:50:41,160 Speaker 3: replicate in game two, and potentially if they were to 3428 02:50:41,200 --> 02:50:42,440 Speaker 3: move on, they would need to do it in a 3429 02:50:42,520 --> 02:50:45,560 Speaker 3: game three. Chance, what did you see in this game? 3430 02:50:46,240 --> 02:50:48,400 Speaker 3: And I call chime in too to see if you 3431 02:50:48,560 --> 02:50:51,120 Speaker 3: read me, where do you see that the Sounders did 3432 02:50:51,240 --> 02:50:52,920 Speaker 3: good that we should try to see more of that 3433 02:50:53,360 --> 02:50:54,000 Speaker 3: next Monday. 3434 02:50:55,280 --> 02:50:57,320 Speaker 5: Well, I thought the back four clean things up in 3435 02:50:57,400 --> 02:50:59,959 Speaker 5: the second half. From the first half, there weren't any 3436 02:51:00,120 --> 02:51:03,600 Speaker 5: miscues and they were very pretty solid back there, didn't 3437 02:51:03,600 --> 02:51:05,920 Speaker 5: give away a lot of chances. One thing for me, 3438 02:51:06,320 --> 02:51:08,240 Speaker 5: my guy to watch Jordan. It was great to see 3439 02:51:08,280 --> 02:51:11,160 Speaker 5: him get ninety full minutes. Okay, that's gonna be really 3440 02:51:11,240 --> 02:51:15,199 Speaker 5: good for him from a physical and mental side of things. 3441 02:51:15,360 --> 02:51:18,720 Speaker 5: And I know, you know, Missoski missed a couple of 3442 02:51:19,160 --> 02:51:21,640 Speaker 5: shots that you know, some people might think that they 3443 02:51:21,680 --> 02:51:24,280 Speaker 5: were sitters and everything, but it's so difficult to score. 3444 02:51:24,440 --> 02:51:27,800 Speaker 5: And but he got in the space to score. That 3445 02:51:28,040 --> 02:51:30,680 Speaker 5: was positive for me. He's getting in, he's making the 3446 02:51:30,800 --> 02:51:34,040 Speaker 5: runs and and you know, Jordan, you know, played in 3447 02:51:34,120 --> 02:51:35,960 Speaker 5: a couple of great balls, which was awesome, and I 3448 02:51:36,040 --> 02:51:38,560 Speaker 5: think that's something that you're gonna, you know, talk about, 3449 02:51:39,280 --> 02:51:43,400 Speaker 5: which which was great. Those two I think sometimes you know, 3450 02:51:43,520 --> 02:51:45,439 Speaker 5: we might think, oh, can they play together. 3451 02:51:45,240 --> 02:51:46,640 Speaker 6: Or not, but obviously they can. 3452 02:51:46,800 --> 02:51:48,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, they definitely can. And the good that I saw, 3453 02:51:49,200 --> 02:51:51,720 Speaker 3: the really big good part was that when Jordan was 3454 02:51:51,760 --> 02:51:54,360 Speaker 3: out on the right and Danny was up top, frequently, 3455 02:51:54,400 --> 02:51:57,600 Speaker 3: almost every single time anybody hit a ball long on 3456 02:51:57,680 --> 02:52:01,000 Speaker 3: that right side, Jordan's out running whoever is over there 3457 02:52:01,040 --> 02:52:04,280 Speaker 3: from Minnesota, a couple of different guys and constantly getting 3458 02:52:04,320 --> 02:52:07,440 Speaker 3: in behind, constantly putting in good crosses, and Mazovsky's on 3459 02:52:07,480 --> 02:52:09,560 Speaker 3: the end of a couple of them. And I'm kind 3460 02:52:09,560 --> 02:52:12,280 Speaker 3: of saying to myself, gosh, do you go as far 3461 02:52:12,600 --> 02:52:16,680 Speaker 3: as starting Mizovsky and Morris in game two and trying 3462 02:52:16,760 --> 02:52:20,240 Speaker 3: to recreate that, you know, sort of whatever you got there, 3463 02:52:20,360 --> 02:52:22,520 Speaker 3: whether it's Morris on the right wing or two forwards 3464 02:52:22,600 --> 02:52:24,480 Speaker 3: up top, trying to recreate that. Yeah. 3465 02:52:24,560 --> 02:52:27,400 Speaker 5: I and you could even bring Jordan in on and 3466 02:52:27,520 --> 02:52:29,600 Speaker 5: start on the left where he has he's very very 3467 02:52:29,720 --> 02:52:32,600 Speaker 5: used to playing played Danny up top play you know, 3468 02:52:32,959 --> 02:52:35,560 Speaker 5: Paul can play on both sides. And one thing that 3469 02:52:35,720 --> 02:52:38,040 Speaker 5: maybe what we do is we take Paul out a 3470 02:52:38,120 --> 02:52:42,240 Speaker 5: little bit earlier and bring Georgie on to run at them, 3471 02:52:42,280 --> 02:52:44,800 Speaker 5: because I mean, can you imagine if they're getting knackered 3472 02:52:44,840 --> 02:52:47,360 Speaker 5: from you know, Paul running at him, and then all 3473 02:52:47,400 --> 02:52:48,800 Speaker 5: of a sudden Georgie's run at you. 3474 02:52:49,520 --> 02:52:51,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, because one of the things that we saw on 3475 02:52:51,240 --> 02:52:53,720 Speaker 3: the wings is that is like, yes, you have Ferrera 3476 02:52:53,760 --> 02:52:56,800 Speaker 3: who's locked in that right wing, and we know Paul 3477 02:52:56,920 --> 02:52:58,760 Speaker 3: does his thing, but I think I mean Andrews, you 3478 02:52:58,840 --> 02:53:00,440 Speaker 3: said it. I think best there in the is that 3479 02:53:00,760 --> 02:53:03,920 Speaker 3: this team really is missing the creativity of Pedro Dalea Vega, 3480 02:53:04,240 --> 02:53:06,760 Speaker 3: and I think I think that's something that clearly stands 3481 02:53:06,800 --> 02:53:07,520 Speaker 3: out in a game like this. 3482 02:53:07,800 --> 02:53:11,800 Speaker 32: Yeah, and getting that creative juice from the wings is 3483 02:53:11,840 --> 02:53:13,800 Speaker 32: actually really really important for this Sounders team. 3484 02:53:13,800 --> 02:53:15,640 Speaker 13: They thrive on a lot of crosses coming in the box. 3485 02:53:15,680 --> 02:53:18,000 Speaker 32: I think that's why Danny Mssovski saw a lot of 3486 02:53:18,000 --> 02:53:19,760 Speaker 32: success when he came out in the field to get 3487 02:53:19,800 --> 02:53:22,560 Speaker 32: those chances. And I think Jordan, like you mentioned it, 3488 02:53:22,640 --> 02:53:25,480 Speaker 32: did a really good job of finding himself in those positions. 3489 02:53:25,560 --> 02:53:28,400 Speaker 32: So you might be able to kind of finangle something around, 3490 02:53:28,440 --> 02:53:31,520 Speaker 32: whether it's putting heyesus up top or maybe moving him 3491 02:53:31,520 --> 02:53:34,120 Speaker 32: to the left, getting Jordan on the right, starting Danny Mussovski, 3492 02:53:34,160 --> 02:53:35,960 Speaker 32: however you want to kind of move things around. I 3493 02:53:36,000 --> 02:53:38,160 Speaker 32: think it's there's a lot of options to kind of 3494 02:53:38,200 --> 02:53:40,680 Speaker 32: get from what you got in that last twenty minutes 3495 02:53:40,720 --> 02:53:42,240 Speaker 32: and maybe get it for a full ninety. 3496 02:53:42,040 --> 02:53:44,280 Speaker 3: Trying to create that creativity right and just you know, 3497 02:53:44,600 --> 02:53:47,000 Speaker 3: get Minnesota off their game and get him off balance 3498 02:53:47,040 --> 02:53:48,879 Speaker 3: and not knowing where the guys are going at any 3499 02:53:48,959 --> 02:53:50,359 Speaker 3: certain moment in transition. 3500 02:53:50,520 --> 02:53:52,400 Speaker 5: That's the space they're going to give you because as 3501 02:53:52,400 --> 02:53:54,880 Speaker 5: they're going back where they're running, they're running towards their goal. 3502 02:53:55,000 --> 02:53:56,920 Speaker 5: That's the thing they're trying to protect, and they will 3503 02:53:56,959 --> 02:53:59,240 Speaker 5: leave the wings open for a moment and we that's 3504 02:53:59,280 --> 02:54:01,480 Speaker 5: why Jordan, we clipped the ball through a couple of 3505 02:54:01,520 --> 02:54:03,720 Speaker 5: times on both sides and he was able to run 3506 02:54:03,959 --> 02:54:04,960 Speaker 5: onto it quite easily. 3507 02:54:05,120 --> 02:54:07,160 Speaker 3: I just don't want to take off any of Ferreira 3508 02:54:07,480 --> 02:54:10,880 Speaker 3: or Roosnak or rolled On or Vargas. I don't want 3509 02:54:10,879 --> 02:54:13,039 Speaker 3: to take off any of that group. And I think, 3510 02:54:13,440 --> 02:54:15,760 Speaker 3: you know, if we do have this idea of starting 3511 02:54:15,840 --> 02:54:19,880 Speaker 3: Danny mczowski and Jordan Morris together in some combination, I'm sorry, 3512 02:54:19,920 --> 02:54:23,199 Speaker 3: Paul Rothrock, but I just don't think that I didn't 3513 02:54:23,240 --> 02:54:25,760 Speaker 3: see enough from him today and I think that we 3514 02:54:25,959 --> 02:54:30,880 Speaker 3: need more basically threats at goal. And Mizoski didn't score, 3515 02:54:30,879 --> 02:54:32,480 Speaker 3: but at least he's more of a threat in my opinion. 3516 02:54:32,760 --> 02:54:37,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think players going at them like you're talking 3517 02:54:37,480 --> 02:54:39,320 Speaker 5: about de la Vega. That's the one thing he does 3518 02:54:39,440 --> 02:54:41,680 Speaker 5: do is he takes chances. All Right, you're going to 3519 02:54:41,720 --> 02:54:43,760 Speaker 5: lose the ball sometimes if you're a dribbler, you'll lose 3520 02:54:43,800 --> 02:54:44,680 Speaker 5: the ball, but go for it. 3521 02:54:45,000 --> 02:54:47,400 Speaker 32: And Paul's a pro like if they did go to 3522 02:54:47,480 --> 02:54:50,440 Speaker 32: those changes, he would understand like he didn't do enough today. 3523 02:54:50,640 --> 02:54:53,640 Speaker 32: I think, you know, warned himself a guarantee himself. I 3524 02:54:53,640 --> 02:54:56,280 Speaker 32: should say another start, and that just happens when you 3525 02:54:56,560 --> 02:54:59,440 Speaker 32: are in the end of your season. Possibly you need 3526 02:54:59,520 --> 02:55:02,240 Speaker 32: to be desk and that's the kind of moves that well, 3527 02:55:02,400 --> 02:55:04,360 Speaker 32: we might end up seeing it next next game from 3528 02:55:04,400 --> 02:55:05,000 Speaker 32: Bran Smetzer. 3529 02:55:05,080 --> 02:55:08,240 Speaker 3: Well, next game is going to be quite something.

I 3628 03:00:07,920 --> 03:00:09,400 Speaker 3: think we're about to see a team park the bus 3629 03:00:09,480 --> 03:00:11,199 Speaker 3: like we've never seen a team park the bus before. 3630 03:00:11,520 --> 03:00:14,040 Speaker 5: Absolutely, you could see Saint Claire walking off the field 3631 03:00:14,080 --> 03:00:16,840 Speaker 5: right there, chirping at one of his players and talking 3632 03:00:16,920 --> 03:00:20,080 Speaker 5: to him. He is more than confident right now. He's 3633 03:00:20,160 --> 03:00:24,080 Speaker 5: cocky and they will play for penalty kicks like nobody's business. 3634 03:00:24,160 --> 03:00:27,080 Speaker 5: And because he feels like he can, you know, do anything, 3635 03:00:27,160 --> 03:00:29,520 Speaker 5: even though he only saved one, but he feels great 3636 03:00:29,560 --> 03:00:30,640 Speaker 5: about it, and goalkeepers do. 3637 03:00:30,800 --> 03:00:33,320 Speaker 6: But we have a huge, big history of big. 3638 03:00:33,280 --> 03:00:36,480 Speaker 5: Games and doing well at home, so we can lean 3639 03:00:36,560 --> 03:00:38,760 Speaker 5: on that we've done great in big games. And at 3640 03:00:38,800 --> 03:00:40,520 Speaker 5: the end of the day, the reality is if you 3641 03:00:40,600 --> 03:00:43,840 Speaker 5: can't win under pressure, you can't win MLS Cup, and 3642 03:00:44,360 --> 03:00:46,680 Speaker 5: Sounders and Schmetz they know that better than anybody in 3643 03:00:46,720 --> 03:00:47,080 Speaker 5: the league. 3644 03:00:47,959 --> 03:00:49,320 Speaker 32: The biggest thing for me is going to be a 3645 03:00:49,400 --> 03:00:52,520 Speaker 32: good start, because the longer the game goes on and 3646 03:00:52,560 --> 03:00:54,960 Speaker 32: it's zero zero that it's going to become more desperate. 3647 03:00:55,040 --> 03:00:56,880 Speaker 32: You're going to do things that you don't normally do 3648 03:00:57,040 --> 03:00:58,800 Speaker 32: because you know that if you don't score, it's the 3649 03:00:58,879 --> 03:01:01,240 Speaker 32: end of your season. But if you get a goal early, 3650 03:01:01,400 --> 03:01:03,280 Speaker 32: Minnesota is not going to know how to react, right 3651 03:01:03,879 --> 03:01:05,480 Speaker 32: because they're just going in and try and play, like 3652 03:01:05,520 --> 03:01:08,080 Speaker 32: you said, for zero zero. So I think if the 3653 03:01:08,120 --> 03:01:10,800 Speaker 32: Sounders get a good start and if it does end 3654 03:01:10,920 --> 03:01:14,200 Speaker 32: up kind of goalless late, you have to continue to 3655 03:01:15,040 --> 03:01:17,760 Speaker 32: trust the process, trust that what you're doing will create 3656 03:01:17,879 --> 03:01:19,640 Speaker 32: enough chances and you will put one in the back 3657 03:01:19,640 --> 03:01:22,520 Speaker 32: of the net. You don't need to like I know 3658 03:01:22,600 --> 03:01:24,920 Speaker 32: we talked about desperation last segment, but in terms of 3659 03:01:25,000 --> 03:01:27,600 Speaker 32: your play on the field, it shouldn't feel like that. 3660 03:01:27,760 --> 03:01:29,200 Speaker 32: Trust that you're the better soccer team. 3661 03:01:29,400 --> 03:01:32,200 Speaker 5: I totally agree with you, and tonight, I mean, in 3662 03:01:32,280 --> 03:01:34,520 Speaker 5: the first five minutes we could have had one, maybe 3663 03:01:34,560 --> 03:01:37,720 Speaker 5: even SI. So if we get those the ball bounces 3664 03:01:37,760 --> 03:01:39,560 Speaker 5: a little bit differently all of a sudden, we're talking 3665 03:01:39,920 --> 03:01:40,959 Speaker 5: totally differently right now. 3666 03:01:41,040 --> 03:01:43,200 Speaker 3: Right, and then we're going to Minnesota later that week 3667 03:01:43,280 --> 03:01:45,080 Speaker 3: and for a game three. All of that sounds great. 3668 03:01:45,879 --> 03:01:48,760 Speaker 3: It's just execute, Yeah, And to what you said at 3669 03:01:48,800 --> 03:01:52,080 Speaker 3: the start of the broadcast, chance, it's about players individually 3670 03:01:52,320 --> 03:01:54,360 Speaker 3: executing at the moments they need And I think you 3671 03:01:54,440 --> 03:01:56,480 Speaker 3: were right what you just said there too. Is that 3672 03:01:56,800 --> 03:01:59,080 Speaker 3: the honest to God truth and the sad truth is 3673 03:01:59,120 --> 03:02:01,640 Speaker 3: that if you can we can't beat Minnesota at home, 3674 03:02:02,200 --> 03:02:06,120 Speaker 3: then you don't deserve to win MLS Cup. So it 3675 03:02:06,280 --> 03:02:09,680 Speaker 3: starts here, guys. You have to win this game in 3676 03:02:09,840 --> 03:02:12,560 Speaker 3: order to go on this road, and this is it. 3677 03:02:13,080 --> 03:02:17,280 Speaker 3: Start fast, hold them down, execute individually. Don't let it 3678 03:02:17,400 --> 03:02:19,959 Speaker 3: become a rainy night in Seattle where they park the bus, 3679 03:02:20,040 --> 03:02:22,200 Speaker 3: they put eleven behind the ball for eighty percent of 3680 03:02:22,280 --> 03:02:25,000 Speaker 3: the game and make it zero zero to pens. Because 3681 03:02:25,400 --> 03:02:28,120 Speaker 3: Minnesota has done that before. They can do that, and 3682 03:02:28,360 --> 03:02:30,640 Speaker 3: we just got to make sure that they don't execute, 3683 03:02:30,720 --> 03:02:33,520 Speaker 3: because yeah, it's that would be a tough way to 3684 03:02:33,600 --> 03:02:36,360 Speaker 3: go out in the first round. Is just lost loss 3685 03:02:36,400 --> 03:02:39,640 Speaker 3: and pens. After what happened last year in Houston where 3686 03:02:39,640 --> 03:02:42,960 Speaker 3: it was win winning pens against Houston, we don't want 3687 03:02:42,959 --> 03:02:45,400 Speaker 3: to see it the other way on our turf. On 3688 03:02:46,000 --> 03:02:50,039 Speaker 3: next Monday night again, that's Monday, lumen Field, November three, 3689 03:02:50,520 --> 03:02:53,560 Speaker 3: it will be a rainy night.
