MLS Game Of The Week: Dallas At Seattle

In the league's last matchday of the regular season, the game of the week is FC Dallas at the Seattle Sounders FC.

This is it: do or die time.

FC Dallas has one match to squeak into the Major League Soccer playoffs by the width of one Jeff Cunningham blast. After a disastrous start and the sale of marquee player Kenny Cooper, many wrote off Dallas. But the Texans have rebounded, and now are one of six teams capable of qualifying for two remaining playoff slots.

On Saturday FCD will travel to Seattle to play Sounders FC in Qwest Field. The Sounders have already secured a playoff berth and now can concentrate on finishing as high as possible to seal home field advantage.

Goal.com will provide extensive coverage of the playoff crunch, culminating with the match in Seattle. Zac Lee Rigg and John Zielonka will be on-site providing live commentary, a report of the game, player ratings, and team reactions. Make sure to tune in at 11:30 p.m. Eastern for all the coverage.
