Kurt Larson of the Toronto Sun calls in to talk TFC ahead of the big game at Olympic Stadium, one expected to draw more than 60,000 fans, then Matt Pentz of the Seattle Times gives the latest on the Sounders' injury situation. In between, the guys break it down tactically before ending with predictions. Hint: goals are expected.
