Sounders Lose Semifinal on Penalty Kicks
The Seattle Sounders fell to the Charleston Battery tonight in the semifinal of the US Open Cup, succumbing during penalty kicks 4-3. Regulation time ended with a 1-1 tie, and the teams failed to break the deadlock during the extra period. The Battery advance to play DC United in the final on Sept. 3. The Sounders resume USL play on Friday at the Starfire Sports Complex.

Bummer about the game.
Quick plug -- If you are a season ticket holder for Sounders FC, consider voting for Mike Foster for the membership council. I'll rep the Seattlest community something awesome.
