FC Barcelona came to Qwest field to take on the Seattle Sounders in a friendly soccer match in August. FC Barcelona, more known as Barca is seen as a power house soccer team all over the world. They have so much talent that most of the best players in the world play for this club. i.e. The New York Yankees vs. a high school team, hello!!!

We saw this little boy sitting on a chair and asked if we could get our picture taken with him. He's a Seattle Sounders fan for sure!

I had a chance to go to the game with some friends over the summer. When we arrived it was mayhem with fans pouring out of every street and local business as the game was about to start in 20 minutes. We started by walking around Qwest field to get the full experience of soccer fever.

Here are some game highlights that I took. Take a look at how fast, precise and confident the FC Barcelona players are in comparison to the Seattle Sounder players. I'm a Sounders fan, but also a BIG FC-Barcelona fan too.

I had a great time at the game and look forward to the Seattle Sounders first ever playoff appearance at Qwest field on October 29, 2009 vs. Huston Dynamo.

I will be posting photos, video, and tweeting while watching the game tomorrow night.
