Honey badger takes what it wants.

[michelleAH96]

Oh my god what a goal!!!!!!!!! I love Alonso hes such ana amazing player. He works so hard for the sounders. His happiness couldn't be more obvious on his face. I love my Sounders

[NBMarian448]

get a date bit.ly\n16lux

[SuperDms78]

that's an american defence...lol

[kebieandme15]

My favorite player and the winning goal for the US open cup, what could be better? Love my Sounders!! :)

[ducktails99]

Tired? Are you kidding me? Ozzie played the whole game and was probably working harder than anyone on the Fire all game. It was a sick nasty goal,so happy I could see it in person

[paulwilsonclark]

That really is about as good as it gets.

[sehyde26]

This was such an amazing goal. Ozzie is by far my fave Sounder. He brings it, 110%, every single game. LOVE!!!!

[cmalh]

to all these comments saying it's not they're fault because they were tired, the sounders played just as long as they did including alonso who played the full 96.

[Orgaszmo]

@nike2376 Check this...that ohh so important MLS game was played by Chicago's "RESERVES" who could only pull a tie out! They rested their starters for the U.S. Open cup.... They just couldnt hang against the power ranked #2 Sounders! Chicago is a lowly power ranked #8! That 96th minute goal was just a way of saying get off the pitch cause you aint got shit on Seattle! DONE AND DONE!

[ganapper]

@s0ccer96 In case you didn't know, MLS has limited roster space and a really congested schedule. It is possible for people that are professional soccer players to be tired.

[mudchair16]

Haha oh wow look at that defence.

[wadeownslbjkobe]

TAKE THAT EURO MLS HATERS!!!

[MrTovson]

The MLS has definitely picked up the pace of its matches as on display last night. However, the quality of touch and pass is still very lacking and rarely are 5 consecutive passes completed.

[pwnage1731]

@MrTovson Not always, teams like Real Salt Lake, Sounders, LA, & NY usually put together numerous passes.

[ecuador6801]

hes been playing some fifa

[s0ccer96]

that is some of the worst defending I have seen. I click on the video and the first thing I see is all this space in the center of the field.

[mikiturner]

@s0ccer96 To be fair, this was in the closing seconds of the game with the Fire desperate to get an equalizing goal. Obviously they're not going to have everyone back defending like they normally would.

[mikeyYvang]

@mikiturner i definetely agree with you about the space but if three people defending cant break someones stride, the defending isnt stellar either.

[nike2376]

@s0ccer96 It's the 96th minute in a mid-week game, I'm guessing the players are maybe a little too tired to cover enough of the field for you...

It was an amazing goal by a defensive midfielder, how about you recognize the positive, ass hole

[firesting81]

@s0ccer96 They were throwing all players forward in a desperate bid to get the equalizer in the last seconds. Try knowing what you are even talking about next time.

[thompsonalex]

Why do I think he's one of the best players in Major League Soccer? Just have a look at this control. Unbelievable!!! That was a fun game to be at!!!

[nickj116]

What a way to finish off the game. Alonso FTW.

[jari333333333]

niceeeeeeeeeeee

[noirartist]

that was Messi like

[kamakazikorean13]

WOW!



[Halyac]

Nyarko had no idea what was going on.



[CasemanSports]

Ossie Alonso > Chicago Fire defense

[logick0]

@CasemanSports he really only took one defender, as the rest were committed to playing offense.

[firesting81]

@CasemanSports No, moron. Chicago was throwing guys forward in the final seconds and those were mids sprinting back. Lucky you guys got the final on your crappy plastic "field".

[CasemanSports]

@firesting81 Nothing lucky about it, the Fire should've bid more money than the Sounders if they cared enough about hosting the final. We just did everything possible under the rules to win.

[hklf]

Alonso, WTG!
