It’s about 1 hour till game time and this should be a exciting match between the the two Washington’s. Sigi Schmid is planning to put out the best team possible for this match, which means all normal starters, that are available, will be on the pitch. I am sure DC will be on the same page and will be putting their top team out there as well.

Some interesting this to note about this game and the tournament:

• Jhon Kennedy Hurtado will be out due to yellow card accumulations
• Tryrone Marshal will be out with a hamstring injury
• Freddy Lyungberg will be playing for the first time in this tournament
• Kickoff is at 4:30 western time and 7:30 eastern time
• Sebastien Le Toux may get to start as he leads the Sounders with 5 goals in the cup
• If the Sounders win it will be a record for the MLS in regards to the Sounders being a new franchise
