Cosmos defense shines as Chinaglia nets cup winner
Giorgio Chinaglia scored the sole goal and earned MVP honors as the Cosmos defeated Seattle 1-0 in Soccer Bowl VIII. Alan Hinton praised Carlos Alberto, noting the veteran defender and a near-flawless New York back line that left goalkeeper Hubert Birkenmeyer with no saves after 70 minutes. Seattle had early pressure, outshooting 8-1 in the opening 20 minutes, before Chinaglia’s 30th minute strike shifted momentum.
