Timbers Make Mince Meat Of Sounders


At Lumen Field, Seattle: 


With goals from Kevin Kelsy (19', 63'), Kamal Miller (56'), Cole Bassett (60'), and Alexander Aravena (90'+8), the Portland Timbers ran roughshod over the Seattle Sounders 5-1 in Major League Soccer (and Cascadia Cup) action as both teams returned to play following MLS' World Cup break.


A tremendous debut for Portland interim head coach Jack Cassidy.


Hassani Dawson scored the lone Seattle goal in the 87th minute.


The Timbers will try to keep their new-found momentum going as they host FC Dallas this coming Wednesday at 7:30 PM Pacific Time (Apple TV/KRSK Radio, 105.1 FM).
