Much love to @[email protected] for facilitating a great match thread; see y'all in Saturday's match thread (and hopefully sooner 😉)
Seattle Sounders FC
A place for Sounders fans in the Fediverse. Discussion, analysis, match threads, and more.
Looking for mods, banner images, and new ideas!
Who are the Sounders
- Seattle's MLS team, born in 1974 and in MLS since 2009
- Winners of the 2022 CONCACAF Champions League, 2016 and 2019 MLS Cups, 2014 MLS Supporters Shield, and 2009, 2010, 2011, and 2014 US Open Cups
Community Guidelines
These are some proposed guidelines to get us started, but open to discussion!
- Hot takes and strong opinions go hand in hand with fandom, especially with a supporter community as passionate as the Sounders'. Still: keep it supportive! Remember that players are people and our boys bleed blue and green, even on an off day. Overwhelming negativity is not an attractive look.
- Abusive language directed towards anyone - including opposing teams - is not acceptable. Similarly, racist, misogynistic, homophobic, transphobic, or other hateful language or content will not be tolerated.
- This community is meant for Sounders-related discussions and content. We welcome fans of all teams to share in these discussions. Trolling or brigading by opposition fan groups, however, will be removed. Similarly, encouraging the trolling or brigading of other communities is not acceptable.
- While most content will be Sounders-focused, we welcome posts & discussion about any Seattle- or Washington-based soccer teams (e.g. OL Reign, Defiance, Ballard FC)

Sounder at Heart's projected lineup:
Thoughts? Expecting a rotation-heavy starting XI with Dallas ahead on the weekend? Or will Schmetzer try to run it back?
I don’t know how that’s not a handball.
But who even knows what a handball is anymore.
Yeah, garbage no call. See my earlier comment about what this ref looks like.
Seattle Sounders
Win
Win
Win?
Win, win, win!
What on earth is that yellow card for?
I know much has been made of this already, but Leo's defensive work has been so much improved this year. That was some great tracking back right there
Chu hat trick incoming.
May your predictions come true!
Lol Costigan said that miss "could have delayed a few flights, that's how bad it was "
That line got a chuckle out of me.
Look, I'm just saying, if you're a Seattle soccer fan, and you wanna talk about a team that won tonight, it's not the Sounders or the USMNT you're talking about, it's [email protected]
9-1-1 with a +25 goal difference, baby!
Foooooock
Welp. Not much to do about that one.
Well, everyone, that was indeed a match that happened. Thanks for joining and hopefully better results to come on Saturday. I'll make a thread but will be at the match as many of you may also be?
They need to bring the zamboni out. Looks a bit slippery out there
Baker off, A. Roldán on at half
I thought this was a joke, but my man really just went from the US match to this. That’s hilarious.
Wait - do I have my Roldan’s mixed up?
CR was in San Diego; AR with the sounders in San Jose
Baker has a decent long throw, at least distance wise.
I’m back! Haven’t been able to participate in these threads the past couple matches. App wasn’t working right, and I finally fixed it.
I love the USMNT, Sounders double header.
Too bad US got knocked out. Though, I’m glad we’ll get Jordan and Alex back soon.
Heber and Nico just not on the same page at the moment.
Stats at the half (FotMob):
That’s a harsh yellow.
This ref looks like somebody who would get called to VAR on an obvious error and stand with his decision
Super harsh hand ball
How are we all watching tonight? Me: probably on a phone for the first half while putting the kid to bed, then at home on the couch.
Couch. Thought about heading to Fuel for the ECS watch party but then USMNT went to extra time and I won't make it before kickoff.
What is that yellow for Chu? Is there some kind of quota that needs to be met tonight?
My guess would be dissent
That was slick by Héber. He pulled three defenders away from the center, too bad we didn’t make anything of that.
Gotta keep it close here and see if we can toss on Raul and Alex in the second half to make a difference . Maybe around 60'?
Whew... Close one but looks offside.
Lemme tell you, if I'd gotten kicked in the face like that when I was 18, I would not have reacted nearly as calmly as Reed Baker-Whiting did just now.
Also, how is that not at least a yellow card. The 5' 11" RBW has a cut over the top of his eye. Seems like a high boot by definition
USMNT - Panama coming down to the wire... 1-1 entering 2nd extra time period. Roldan took a knock to the head. Hope he's ok after that long concussion rehab. JMo with the assist on Ferreira's tying goal on a beautifully directed header from a long ball.
