With all the craziness going on at the World Cup, a reminder (as if anyone needs one)……. SEATTLE SOUNDERS VS PHILADELPHIA UNION 2pm ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes. Perfect time, intense WC games that day will be over (could the day get more epic than England v. Germany?)
To make it a bit more interesting…..
LJUNGBERG TO FACE CRITICAL UNION COACH
Sunday’s game in Philadelphia will be the first meeting of Ljungberg and Peter Nowak since the Union coach accused the Sounders FC midfielder of diving following 2-0 Seattle win in the season opener.
Ljungberg, who was called a “disgrace” by Nowak, said the reunion hasn’t waved heavily on his mind.
“I couldn’t be less bothered,” he said. “For me it’s a disgrace what he said, but I don’t get involved in those kinds of things. I just play my game and hopefully we can beat them.”
**Tickets on sale for CCL (Concacaf Champions League) for the round game against El Salvador’s Metapan at 7pm on July 28th at Qwest Field. Tickets are still available for the Celtic game. I also think tickets are on sale for the Timbers v. Sounders Open Cup match on some day in the future, at PGE park. If anyone is going to any of these pictures would be <3**
REMEMBER TO VOTE FOR KASEY KELLER FOR AN ESPY AS WELL AS ANY OTHER SOCCER/FOOTBALL MOMENTS!
and though most would probably watch the Chile v. Spain game, Nkufo and the Swiss the team will be playing against Honduras at the same time, so just send some love their way.
