12’ - NO GOAL BUT WAS IT A GOAL?? Morris’ header swatted off the line at the end! Close call! I got the sweats!

13’ - No goal. But holy crap was that close.

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:19:28 AM
On replay, looks like the right call and Morris' header didn't cross the line

CLEARED OFF THE LINE. Jordan Morris that close to scoring on his debut, but GK Gonzalez bats his header clear

Live, I thought that ball crossed on the line. On replay, that was the right call. Would have been a dream start for Morris, Sounders

15’ - Sounders bossing this game so far. Club America restricted to 30-yard pot shots.

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:22:14 AM
16’ - ALMOST GOAL OH MYLANTA. Valdez neaaaaarly leads Andreas in, but it’s cleared off at the last moment.

*knock knock knock*

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:23:04 AM
Last-ditch tackle from Goltz thwarts Dempsey to Valdez to Ivanschitz move into box. Sounders pushing hard for an opener

by Matt Pentz via twitter 2/24/2016 3:23:36 AM
18’ - CLUB AMERICA CROSS CLEARED OFF. Guys. This game. Palpitation city.

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:24:48 AM
Schmid said yesterday clean sheet was Priority No. 1. This is ... not shaping up to be that kind of game. And bless its heart for that

by Matt Pentz via twitter 2/24/2016 3:25:34 AM
19’ - Very willing to rethink my position that Valdez isn’t a true No. 9. The dude has been a back-to-goal menace all night.

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:25:54 AM
Yep. Second leg at Azteca next Wednesday twitter.com/tfabian13/stat…

21’ - The way this is set up to start builds, the back three is actually Marshall-Evans-Ozzie. Jones and Mears are in Tukwila.

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:28:04 AM
About half of it, from what I gather twitter.com/Craig_Craker/s…

by Matt Pentz via twitter 2/24/2016 3:28:24 AM
23’ - Can’t wait to see Ivanschitz’s heat map. It will be beautifully confusing and the blood red of our ancestors’ veins.

25’ - Ozzie over the top ball to Jordan Morris emergency cleared via header. Morris’s speed gives CBs the nightsweats. Seen it for years.

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:32:30 AM
No fullback in @MLS commits smarter fouls than Tyrone Mears. He's the Cafu of great fouls. #SCCL

Club America nearly takes a 1-0 lead but Rubens Sambueza's shot from near the end line hits the crossbar.

by Tim Booth via twitter 2/24/2016 3:33:42 AM
DOINK. Club America counter deflects to Sambueza ... who smashes it off the underside of Seattle's bar. Still zeroes through 26 minutes

by Matt Pentz via twitter 2/24/2016 3:33:55 AM
27’ - NEAR MISS CLUB AMERICA. Sambueza’s ball ricochets off the underside of the crossbar. Unreal game so far.

28’ - Nobody celebrates an obviously disallowed goal quite like Club America fans (it was loud. He was offside. It’s 0-0).

If the entertainment value of this opening half-hour is a sign of what's to come in 2016 ... I don't hate it

by Matt Pentz via twitter 2/24/2016 3:36:56 AM
31’ - Darwin Quintero is just begging Evans and Marshall to miss once on that offside trap. He’s been trying to jump it all night.

34’ - Must admit to being slightly surprised at how high Schmid drew this line, but when the fickle lords of soccer deliver gifts, I accept.

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:40:42 AM
Crucial 10 minutes coming up for Seattle. Club America pressing for an away goal as halftime approaches

by Matt Pentz via twitter 2/24/2016 3:42:38 AM
37’ - Club America beginning the turn the screws a bit. Play’s been pinned back into Seattle’s end the last 5-10 minutes or so.

39’ - Ivanschitz and Dempsey just switched. Dempsey now underneath Valdez. *strokes chin thoughtfully*

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:45:47 AM
Brad Evans goes for glory. Storming run ends with a cross sliced high

by Matt Pentz via twitter 2/24/2016 3:47:13 AM
40’ - DANGER ZONE WILL ROBINSON. Ivanschitz cross just misses a winding-up Dempsey, and Evans then booms his kick over.

by Sounders Matchday via twitter 2/24/2016 3:47:53 AM
.@Stefan24Frei says NO!
