I was shocked when they disallowed this goal.
The Spanish announcers -Vain /Agulla- were all over it on Apple TV.

Last week was fun bantering around #SEAvCOL.
#COLvPOR should be even livelier this week with the return of The Colorado Kid.
“What a cross. What a goal.” 😮💨

Schmetzer is a class act. Love it. #SEAvCOL
Every Shirt Is Available*
*Except Alex Harris’ #SEAvCOL
Zack Steffen on Home Opener: "Has top be three points at home. Have to show up as ourselves and be men."
#SEAvCOL
Zack Steffen on building out of the back: "We just weren't ourselves tonight, and that starts with me building out of the back."
Strong leadership accountability.
#SEAvCOL
Matt Wells on the away fans: "And by the way, our fans were amazing. I could hear them all the way from where I'm sat on the bench, which is ridiculous."
#SEAvCOL
Matt Wells on Home Opener: "I want the biggest victims of tonight's performance to be Portland."
#SEAvCOL
Matt Wells on personalities: "No solutions found in the personalities on the pitch. Each substitute moved the game forward."
#SEAvCOL
Matt Wells on Alex Harris: Alex Harris should start against Portland. Matter of fact, I told him that in the locker room. Shirt's his next week should he have a good week of training."
#SEAvCOL
Matt Wells on Sam Vines: "Like I've said before, I came into this club to make decisions. Everyone's had a chance to earn the shirts. Jackson's had an amazing preseason, though he was off tonight. Miguel Navarro coming in, I only want two LBs. The culture, there can be no hierarchies."
#SEAvCOL
Matt Wells: "Every shirt's available for the Portland game for sure."

#SEAvCOL POSTGAME PRESSER
Matt Wells On Herrington & Cobb: "Those two have trained really well. They were excellent against Orlando. That's the culture I want here, if you train well you start."
Nothing like a Home Opener dub 🙌

5. NOW KITH
6. MAN, I MISSED SOCCER YOU GUYS
📝 #SEAvCOL POSTGAME NOTES:
🧮 Pids lost possession battle
😱 Zack stood still with the ball at feet, flanked by attackers
📐 Rapids tiki-taka created space exploits, passing lanes early, sputtered in final 3rd
🔫 When we shot, it was direct. No upgrading the shot
⚡️Alexis Manyoma EVERYWHERE
🧵2/2
📝 #SEAvCOL POSTGAME NOTES:
✅ Cobb + Herrington move—start them early, let ‘em grow together
😕 Skeptical of the Hamzat (6), Josh (8), Paxten (10) midfield. Seem to need a better distributor/creator added
💰 Related, pay whatever HOU asks for McGlynn
👀 Manyo, Hamzat, Travis all eye-catching
🧵1/2
Paulie. Primetime. Delivers. 👏
Paul Rothrock is your Toyota Man of the Match from #SEAvCOL!
I love the smell of three points to start the season. #SEAvCOL
#SEAvCOL FULLTIME ANALYSIS!!!
1) PAULY BIG BALLS LET IT ALL HANG OUT
2) JESUS FERREIRA SEES EVERY DIMENSION AT ONCE AND MAKES THE RIGHT PASS IN ALL OF THEM
3) I FORGOT WE HAD A BACK FOUR TONIGHT
4) ANDREW THOMAS TOO
5) WHAT A WAY TO CELEBRATE A START TOUR 10TH YEAR AS AN OFFICIAL ECS SUBGROUP #EBFG
FINAL: SEA 2 | 0 COL
A truly after dark first half even-keeled in the second. Rapids looked a mix of out over their skis and catching edges.
To be expected from such a young lineup, new coach and system. Happy to let them take the lumps and learn against teams like SEA early.
#SEAvCOL
#SEAvCOL Second Half Misconduct
🟨SEA: Alex Roldán (UB) 61'
🟨SEA: Snyder Brunell (UB) 73'
90+1’ ALEX HARRIS YOU BEAUT! Nearly puts it through Thomas’ legs point blank. Most danger Rapids have created all night.
Build up was clever passing between Manyo, Atencio and M. Navarro.
SEA 2 | 0 COL
#SEAvCOL
Alexis Manyoma has been the most proactive, active and reactive player in the pitch since he subbed on.
#SEAvCOL
88’ RAPIDS SUB:
IN: Miguel Navarro
OUT: Jackson Travis
Navarro gets his first minutes in a Rapids kit since he first signed for the team in 2024.
SEA 2 | 0 COL
