Sights and Sounds from a Cascadia Cup Clash

Takayuki Suzuki defies physics to give the Portland Timbers a 1-0 lead over the Seattle Sounders.

Update: Another look at the goal courtesy of KPTV.

Miguel Guante scores his first goal as a Portland Timber to clinch the game 2-0.

    Cory – In the first game of the season your old coach Konstin got into it with a coach from Puerto Rico on the sidelines. They almost came to blows. I wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of one of his punches. I talked to him a few weeks ago. Seems like a great guy.
