It is going to be tough like it was Tuesday night, but Seattle is still in the hunt for the all important "Treble" this season. US Open Cup, MLS Cup, and CONCACAF Champions League trophies all await!
An interesting statement is made by a New York Cosmos official in this report by the Sporting News: “I think the league will want to make an announcement about the 20th franchise by the end of the year. We’re doing everything we possibly can to secure that franchise.”

Comunicaciones 2 vs. 2 Seattle (CONCACAF Champions League, September 27, 2011)
Americans playing and succeeding in Europe is a hard thing to accomplish. Carlos Bocanegra has been doing it for a long time. Maurice Edu is "Man of the Match" in Scotland!
Bayern Munich 2 – Manchester City 0 (Champions League, September 27, 2011)
There is something about the tournament that makes the club come alive. Even under the legendary Arrigo Sacchi, it won more European Cups than Scudettos. In fact, it won more European Super Cups and Intercontinental Cups than Serie A titles under his management.

At some point, nearly every soccer player in America — young and old alike — has dreamed of lacing their boots and running out onto the pitch with one of the world's top professional clubs.

Real Madrid 3 – Ajax 0 (Champions League, September 27, 2011)
Tevez broke a fundamental rule of sport—that no individual is more important than his or her team—when he sat moodily on the bench at a time of dire need for Manchester City, seemingly refusing to play on Tuesday night in the Champions League.
