Earthquakes vs Seatle Rematch Preview



The time has finally come. Chris Wondolowski and his Earthquakes look to anger the Seattle Sounders again: He scored the game's only goal in the first half off a penalty kick. That's not the best way to win, but there were plenty of 'lowlights' and highlights. Wondolowski was reported saying that he wouldn't want to be the referee in the rematch, as they will probably have to have a sharp eye, and their whistles and red cards ready.

It's going to be a very physical game, and both teams are up to the challenge. That game in June was very physical, and Wondo said that the hatchet wasn't completely buried, but there isn't going to be any excessive contact like after the final whistle last time.

Coming into this game, the Sounders are 10-5-7, earning themselves 37 points. The top-of-the-league Quakes, on the other hand are 13-5-5, earning themselves 44 points. Expect greatness out of this match, as both teams are doing very well, and look to knock each other off.

The Quakes are going to need this win, as RSL, once again, is within striking distance. They look to overtake the Earthquakes as league leaders. As for the Sounders, the Whitecaps are not far behind, as they also look to make a push to finish in a better position.
This game could be one of the best games this season. You don't want to miss it.
