    A point in this one would be fantastic.

    2 significant earthquakes have rocked California in the past couple days and most seismologists agree that the third in the series is probably what SJE is about to do to RSL.

    Has San Jose cooled off? has RSL heated up? San Jose's record at home is decent (6-3-1) but they tripped up pretty badly last game. Wonder if RSL can pounce.

    Com'on earthquakes! I want to see if the hippies were right and California will fall into the ocean. <crosses fingers>

    As for the game, the game will end in a 1-1 tie. Yay! Points on the road!

    That's a lot of squad rotation from earlier in the week, exacerbated by neither Sam nor Nedum traveling owing to midweek injuries.

    Rimando

    Herrera Holt Silva Toia

    Beckerman Besler

    Kreilach

    Savarino Baird Lennon

    (Guessing a whole bunch!)

    Subs: Putna, Glad, Everton, Mulholland, Rusnak, Plata, Saucedo

    The league site suggests a 5-4-1 rather than a 4-2-1-3 as I had guessed. They say:

    Rimando

    Lennon Holt Silva Toia Herrera

    Besler Beckerman Kreilach Savarino

    Baird

    No way - I am almost certain. ;)

    A corner kick against the run of play! (yeah, that's how I'm calling it)

    Thus far, Beckerman looks horrid.

    Huge gaps in the middle for San Jose to exploit, even with two d-mids.

    Godoy is out for us, Judson is a pale copy and out of his element.

    Some nice counters from RSL. Nothing to show yet, but both teams are pushing the game.

    Our midfield is really letting us down right now. We're trying to build out of the back and they can't get the ball past the center circle without a turnover.

    Midfields of Old Kyle, Nick Besler, and Damir will do that to you. ;)

    Good chance for Damir - open header should have been put on goal.

    I am happy with this half. Not giving San Jose good chances = success. They've been rampant lately, especially at home.

    Geez, Besler. Poor decision there leads to San Jose's best chance on the night (fortunately for Judson who @Beerking already told us about). :)

    That's a great half, one of our best on the road this season.

    Baird needs to come off. He's been absolutely horrid.

    That last ball across from Besler - he should have put that one home.

    Sorry to see Sava come off; he's been good. Must be travel and Copa America-related.

    We may get a point out of this, but the final third really sucks.

    So, here we are 72nd minute. RSL has been more dangerous? Weird.

    Damir off for Seba - must put Baird in the middle.
