Sounders Opener Crowd


"Since the MLS began business in 1996, filling the pro-soccer void in the U.S. left by the 1984 collapse of the North American Soccer League, it’s likely no crowd made more noise - or had more fun - than the crowd at Qwest Field did Thursday.

Coach Sigi Schmid sensed as much early in the first half, when he had trouble communicating with midfielder Brad Evans.

“We need hand signals,” Evans told the coach. “I can’t hear anything you’re saying.”

Said Schmid: “I’ve never had a player say that to me in an MLS Stadium.”
