The Seattle Sounders visited Chivas USA prior to the MLS Playoffs. It was pretty much over for the Chivas USA, but they always play with heart and passion. The Sounders were able to make it into the playoffs after this 3-1 win, but the talent schism is very prominent in MLS, similar to the NBA. Here are a few of my favorite photos from the game.
