A match considered vital as well important
for a couple of squads, that always these play in matches with the essence of a
much contested and bitter rivalry since both of these squad’s existence and
playing time in whatever league these two have taken part of.
With a hot and streaked Portland Timbers
who in their midweek match at Los Angeles Stub Hub Center lost to a belligerent
and pushy Galaxy squad- that saw a very uncomfortable score for the visiting
Portlanders.
The Rose City chaps had something to settle
as well not let their followers down in this edition of the Cascadia Derby-
played once again between these two titans, after a couple of weeks Open Cup that
saw many negatives for the Emerald City Boys.
Providence Park saw in its stands a very raucous
and high decibel supporter crew’s in their Green Army, something that the Portland
Timbers had a certain influence in putting a one sided show and stop their I-5
rivals cold in their tracks for another back to back win, something not seen
since 2013.
As well giving the visiting Rave Greens crew
a doubt for their absences in their initial eleven, that wasn’t a reason or
excuse for the visitors to make claims of a certain advantage or superiority,
as the Seattle squad regardless who’s in the field
their competitiveness is always there.
Still they just faced a very motivated and dominant
entity in the Timbers, who never stopped looking to infiltrate into the goalposts
defended by Seattle’s star keeper Stefan Frei.
That for his misfortunes didn’t saw the fury
of the Timbers Darlington Nagbe, Faneando Adi who hit the double once again and
Rodney Wallace as a substitute scored the final one.
Once again Cheesmaster or Timbers Boss Caleb
Porter did another check mate into the visiting Emerald City squad that didn’t show
any organization in the field as well fouling the living daylights of its hosts
all afternoon long.
Indeed is what many will state in how the thrill
of victory and the agony of another defeat from their southern neighbors that
did the dame to them in the Open Cup and were defeated in what many dubbed this
as a very ugly match as the 3-1 score and today's 4-1.
isn’t something to be proud but worried for
the Sounders Manager Sigi Schmidt, seeing how all of his efforts and moves didn’t
paid off once again for the final and humiliating result we all known.
for now nothing is loss for the Sounders
have two opportunities as the next match played at Century Link will one
revenge filled one as well their upcoming second Leg of the US Open Cup wee a loss
once again and elimination will be considered as unacceptable.
Today the best squad in the field won with their
unique game and extra efforts seen all around an afternoon of pure football that
saw the locals win with fight and conviction that at the end saw one overall winner
in a weekend filled Derbies.
Keep up Rose City; with this kind of playing
maybe we can see a couple of shield’s adorning at the end of this campaign the
halls of Providence Park as well an award to your Manager merits this 2015.
After overcoming oddities and adversities
at the beginning, suddenly he stated certain dominance and so far is looking
that he can turn things around for his Boys in Green as a mean and contentious
squad.
