Been thinking about the Kansas game tonight, and the corner kick that I tried to shoot directly in the goal.
It was so close……I saw the goalie save it exactly on the goal line!
It would have been a really nice goal to have scored as I was 8 or 10 years old the last time it happened.
Anyway, a great job by Tyrone to be there on the rebound and score for the Sounders.

We could easily have scored 8 goals in this game, as we were one-on-one with the Wizard goalie 5 more times except from the 3 goals we scored.
For Playoffs we need to get much better on the final touch so that we score on all our chances, so I guess some of us need to work extra hard on that at the practices until the next game….
The grass pitch at Community America Ballpark was a really nice one to play on, it was like playing in England again. This pitch and Robertson Stadium in Houston is the best ones we have played this season as the ball roles really fast on the grass.
I’ve been told that Sounders is now the second team in MLS history to reach the postseason in their first year which of course means a lot to me and the whole team!
If you want to get some more facts from the game, have a look at Sounders and MLS .

Off to Kansas for a very important game Saturday for both the Sounders and Wizards.
The Wizards need 6 more points to reach Playoff which means they have to attack from start. This is a positive thing for us.
A win for the Sounders means MLS Playoff is secured!
A bit of interesting information is that the Community America Ballpark where the Wizards play has the smallest pitch in the League. To prepare we have been taking in the sidelines on our practice pitch about 2 meters on each side to be ready for the game Saturday.

Been in training camp in Arizona for a week now. We have been running our asses off and we are all a bit tired, but no pain no gain.
Started thinking about the five best football stadiums I ever played at and came up with my personal “top 5″ list that I wanted to share with you.
