Final: No score in first playoff leg between Sounders and Dynamo
Bruising play in the final 4 minutes of stoppage time. Ref finally calls a foul as Geoff Cameron trips up Nate Jaqua from behind. Ljungberg takes the kick just outside the box, but headed out by Houston's defense.
Ljungberg takes the corner, just barely over the heads of leaping Sounders in the box. Cross back in to Levesque just brushed wide.
Whistle blows on this first leg of the playoffs -- a disappointing tie for the home team.
Kasey Keller named man of the match, outstanding work in goal for Seattle tonight.
about...
I'm a longtime soccer player and fan. My career started
with the Audubon Owls, the meanest group of 1st graders
ever to play 'small side' ball (6 v. 6 players on the
field). We won every game (who kept score?) and ate orange
slices at half time. I was hooked immediately.
Somewhere along the line I was drafted as a goalkeeper--a
sure sign of crazyness. The pressure felt by keepers is
intense. In mere seconds you can become the hero or the
goat of the entire match. But for me, nothing was more
rewarding than launching myself across the goal and feeling
the thrill of a big save.
After years of local recreational, high school, and select
club play, I'm excited to learn and fall in love with our
new MLS side along with the rest of the Pacific Northwest.
Before long, we'll all be bleeding neon-green and blue.
Go Sounders!
