The Seattle Sounders and the San Jose Earthquakes split a 0-0 draw in a game that the Sounders were lucky to get out of unscathed. The Quakes outshot the Rave Green 11-4 but a heroic effort by Stefan Frei was able to save the day.
“It was difficult,” Sounders keeper Stefan Frei said during a video conference call with media. “The last time we played them at our place, we had some really nice sequences early on in the game that we were able to really punish them when we were able to break their press. Today, that was more difficult. … We lacked that tiny bit of finesse or control to get out of tight situations and create something.”
