Rose City Forecast Nine: FCD vs PTFC

Related Topics: Alvas Powell, Portland Timbers

A win! Last weekend, the Timbers started Cascadia off right, beating Vancouver 2-1 at home, and thus, they stayed atop the league. Nagbe got things started with a rocket of a goal that pinged off the underside of the bar. A few minutes later, he started the sequence that finished with a Mattocks goal from Valeri. The Timbers looked somewhat worse in the second half, and Alvas Powell ended up conceding a head-scratching penalty. Montero scuffed his initial shot, but managed to get the follow up for Vancouver’s goal. The Whitecaps threatened as the game went on, but PTFC held on for the win.
