These 2 teams met twice prior to tonite and the Sounders won both
by a 1-0 score. Tonight the Rhinos won their 5th straight game by
defeating the defending A-League champions. All 3 goals were scored in
the second half on a picture perfect night for soccer. Doug Miller
continued his scoring onslaught as he scored the first goal on a nice
pass from Lenin Steenkamp. Daligcon tied the game for the Sounders on a
rebound rocket in the upper right corner. Seattle scored what they
thought was the go ahead goal and was called offsides. Most of the
players were busy celebrating in the corner, when Rochester pushed the
ball forward and scored on a header by Kofi Debra, from Renee Rivas.
