Clint Dempsey will make his home debut for Seattle Sounders tonight against Portland Timbers in front of a sell-out crowd of more than 66,500.
“I can’t even imagine what it’s going to be like when the whole stadium is completely packed and they are behind us,” said Dempsey, who likened his introduction in front of about 40,000 to a movie. “We’ll feed off that energy and we’ll make sure we give everything we have to let them go home happy.”
