Qwest to Broadcast USMNT Before Rapids Match

Posted by Mike on June 25, 2009 · Under Qwest Field, USMNT · View Comments 

BRAVO Sounders Front Office!!! The Sounders FC Front Office has made the decision to broadcast the Confederations Cup Final between the US Men’s National Team and Brazil on Sunday before the Sounders & Colorado Rapids match.

This makes our dilemma easier to solve…

Kickoff of the Confederations Cup match is slated for 1130a. Qwest will broadcast the match in its entirety until the Sounders kick off. The remainder of the US-Brazil match will be shown at the conclusion of the Sounders match.

During the Seattle – Colorado match on the pitch- no updates on the Confederations Cup Final will be announced. Everyone in attendance can watch the second half without knowing the result.

    With the 11:30 game, what time are they opening the gates – normally it’s 90 minutes before the match.  What will happen with the march to the match?

  • DaveS

    This is an incredibly cool solution.

  • seba

    yeah, but IF USA wins, all 32k will know before the SSFC game is done. Spontaneous celebration will commence mid second half.

  • Kevin

    Spontaneous celebration will be due to Sebe finally getting an MLS goal right about mid-second half.  ;-)

    i hope we have the problem of the US winning. it won’t kill me if that cat got out of the bag
