Events

Match Events

0' KICK OFF: Portland Timbers gets underway.
5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Larrys Mabiala made 287 appearances and scored 15 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
10' Jeremy Ebobisse is putting in a real shift tonight. He has covered more ground than anyone else for Seattle Sounders FC so far.
15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
20' The Argentina Brian Fernandez breaks the deadlock on 20 minutes. 0-1!
25' The 34-year-old Zarek Valentin has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
30' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Seattle Sounders FC and Portland Timbers are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
35' Jorge Villafana has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
40' Both keepers have barely been tested. Seattle Sounders FC and Portland Timbers are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.
45' Supporters expect more eagerness from Steve Clark, as he is very good at scoring at with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
50' The deadlock is broken! Raul Ruidiaz gets on the scoresheet on 50 minutes.
51' Sensational shot from Brian Fernandez. Portland Timbers is back in the lead.
56' The clock is ticking and both teams know a goal could change everything at this point.
61' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
62' The Seattle Sounders FC bench stirs into life. Harry Shipp is withdrawn and Joevin Jones gets his opportunity.
66' Poor challenge from Kelvin Leerdam. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
71' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Nicolas Lodeiro suffering a number of foals already.
72' A tactical swap from Seattle Sounders FC — Saad Abdul Salaam on, Kelvin Leerdam off on 72 minutes.
75' Marvin Loria is replacing Jeremy Ebobisse for the Portland Timbers side.
80' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
82' Portland Timbers player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
84' Portland Timbers receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 84.
87' Seattle Sounders FC make a change. Brad Smith trudges off to be replaced by Nouhou Tolo on 87 minutes.
90' A change in the Portland Timbers ranks — Jorge Villafana exits the field as Zarek Valentin enters on 90.
90' A moment of madness from Diego Chara on 90 minutes earns him a Yellow card. Portland Timbers will be frustrated.
Full Time. Portland Timbers beats Seattle Sounders FC
