Seattle played a soccer game in San Jose last weekend. The final score was 0-0, a deserved result from a tedious, tepid affair wherein the visiting Sounders looked like they’d played a hard-fought midweek game, but of course they hadn’t. Seattle managed only two shots each half and one single shot on goal all match. The saving grace was San Jose’s nearly equal ineptitude, as they put only one shot on frame within 11 attempts. Without enough energy or creative presence on the field, this match was increasingly hard to watch as each team took turns looking ugly. Also ugly was the field, which was in terrible shape, so loose and falling apart that it was a miracle no one was seriously hurt.
