Thursday we face off against the Seattle Sounders.

This season has been a grind, and we have not had much time to rest with all the traveling between CONCACAF and MLS regular season matches.

The Battle in Seattle live on hursday!

But hey, it’s the playoffs, and we have to suck it up, rest when we can, and play as hard and compete to win.

Coach Kinnear had this to say about it:

“I’m not worried about their fitness. I’m worried about how many games we’ve played.

We play on Thursday and the league didn’t take into account that we played on Wednesday in CONCACAF and I think that’s unfair.”

It would have been nice for the MLS to have considered allowing some time for us to rest.

After all, it is the participation in these competitions that allows the MLS reputation to build upon this exposure.
