MLS
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.
Here’s my selects from a bright sun shinny day at Century Link Field in Seattle, WA
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.
Here’s a few highlights from the match…
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.
What a great day on the pitch! The Seattle Sounders FC are on fire as they beat Toronto FC 3-2 in what has become an intense rivalry between the two power houses!! I’ll be looking forward to more of this kind of dominating action as things keep heating up over the season!

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.

Excited to be back in the mix covering the Seattle Sounders FC for Emerald City Supporters this season! Lots of highlights coming over the season. And here's a few from Saturdays 2-0 win over the Colorado Rapids at CenturyLink Field.
