Tuesday night was something else. If it wasn't the torrential downpour prior to the match or the atrocious traffic that kept a lot of folks from getting to the stadium on time, it was the thrilling 2-2 draw between the Sounders FC and Club Tijuana that held your attention.
All kinds of fun things went down inside CenturyLink Field in what turned out to be a lovely little international friendly between two quality teams.
The match, from the Sounders side of things at least, can be classified as a shining example of what the future holds as the club displayed a number of its younger players in the match. Stacking up quite well against a very strong Tijuana outfit (which is currently in first place in Liga MX), guys like Aaron Kovar, Cristian Roldan and Oniel Fisher all played significant roles in the result.
Oh and the team looked STUNNING in those new Olympic White kits. JUST STUNNING. I say again: STUNNING.
As we do, let's sit back and enjoy the day from a Social Media perspective in today's Social Timeline.
Matchday had arrived! Yippee!
Little video to get you pumped uppppp.
A little training amongst friends.
We’re all friends here! Football friends!
It was a truck full of salmon. How very Seattle.
The Sounders Academy had a match, too! Against Xolos!
That dang salmon truck slowing things down.
Look at that hotness. Just FIRE. STRAIGHT FIRE!
And in lineup paper picture form! Cool!
And we were off! Soccer time, baby!

That didn’t take long!
