One word...terrible. Terrible that the only broadcast was a crappy feeder from SoundersFC.com. Terrible that the Dynamo squandered a late 1-0 lead. Terrible also best describes about half the guys who played tonight.
Seattle put out their full squad while the Dynamo continued with their "tourney" squad. An early Akinbiyi goal almost was enough, but the Sounders finally capitalized on their 4056th chance on the second half as Jaqua (remember him??) put away the 344th shot Seattle had inside the Dynamo 6 yard box.
Overtime was even less productive for the Dynamo as it only took minutes for the Sounders to go up 2-1 on another lapse of defense and yet another shot from inside the 6 yard box. Even when Seattle went down to 10 men with about 10 minutes left, the Dynamo could only muster a handful of even mildly promising chances.
Single bright spot - Tally Hall. Hall showed that the future between the pipes is pretty promising in the post-Onstad era.
Lets hope that coming home and playing a game back at Robinson Field on Saturday will help the Dynamo get back on track. Still no Ching or Holden, but the Dynamo are getting healthier for the 2nd half of the MLS season.
