Almost 67,000 soccer fans shook Seattle Stadium with electrifying screams, claps and jumps during the FIFA Men’s World Cup match between the U.S. and Australia on Friday — and they were strong enough to trigger seismic activity readings.

The rumbling peaked after U.S. defender Alex Freeman scored Team USA’s second goal against Australia, according to the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network. Fans waited with bated breath when Freeman was initially ruled offside, then erupted in celebration following a replay check that counted the goal.
