The Seattle Sounders moved on to the Western Conference semifinals to take on FC Dallas over the next two weeks. On Friday, PRO announced who would be the main in charge for the first leg on Sunday night - it will be everyone’s favorite referee Ricardo Salazar. He will be joined by Chris Strickland (AR1), Danny Thornberry (AR2) and Fotis Bazakos (4th).
Salazar is already in Seattle as he was the 4th official in Thursday night’s 1-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City. He was called upon once in the game when Osvaldo Alonso came with a strong challenge to Benny Feilhaber.
