Century Link Field

San Francisco 49ers at Seattle Seahawks 12-29-2019

In the final game of the regular season it came down to two teams that would leave first place in the NFC and a bye in the first round of the playoffs. With the season ending injuries of starting running backs, Chris Carson, Rashaad Penny and CJ Prosise, we got to see the return of Marshawn Lynch into the Seahawks backfield. It was only fitting that the game came down to the last play of the game. With that, San Francisco came out ahead after stopping Seattle in the red zone with only seconds left on the clock. The 49res take the win 26-21, a first round bye are lined up to play the Vikings on January 11th. Meanwhile the Seahawks drop from 1st place into 5th and head into the post season as a wild card team against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Here’s a few highlights from the final game of the regular season.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Seattle Seahawks

What a wild game... the Seahawks beat the Buccaneers 40-34 in overtime on a Russell Wilson to Will Dissly Touchdown. I’ve shot at Century Link Field several times for the Sounders matches, but how loud the 12’s get, is on a whole other level! Soon as I get back I dropped some ear plugs to into the camera bag for the next time.

Seattle Sounders FC SEAvNE (8-10-2019)

What a crazy game! From the Sounders being up, to being down and then pulling ahead again just to have the game end in a tie. But the most important part was that I broke my stupid monopod the night before and didn’t have the reach that my 400mm lens usually gives me. Looks like I’ll be visiting B&H to pick up a new one before the next match.

Seattle Sounders FC SEAvHOU (5-11-2019)

May 11th saw the Seattle Sounders FC come away with a 1-0 win over the Houston Dynamo for a much needed 3 points by way of Christian Roldan scoring from the outside at 4:41 in the first half. On a photography related note, I wanted to push myself outside the usual thing I’ve been doing and shot a good portion from the 300 level at Century Link Field. I think I got a couple interesting shots. That said, next time I think I’m gonna add a 1.4x or 2x converter to the Canon 400 f/2.8L to shoot from up on high.

Seattle Sounders FC SEAvLAFC (4-28-2019)

What started off looking like it was going to be a high scoring match up with Jordan Morris scoring the fastest Sounders FC goal (as an MLS Franchise) at the :46sec mark into the match, and LAFC equalizing a few minuets later. And that’s where the score stood for the next 90min of play (inc. the 4 added min by the ref). Things heated up pretty quickly after Christian Roldan received a red card in the 18th minuet as play became more and more physical with the sounders down to 10 men on the field. It wasn’t the prettiest of matches as both teams come away with 1 point each.

Here’s a few of my selects from the match.

Seattle Sounders FC (SEAvRSL)

Sadly I missed a couple games this season, but I was back on the pitch for ECS at Century Link Field with another solid Sounders (1-0) win against a game opponent in Real Salt Lake on April 6th, 2019.
