The Seattle Sounders played the Portland Timbers just two weeks ago, but a lot has changed for both teams. Portland has a star attacker injured and the Sounders have been flying after beating San Jose and LAFC. I chatted with Kyle Garcia from Stumptown Footy ahead of the match on Wednesday night.
Sounder at Heart: So, the Timbers played San Jose twice last week. One was a 1-1 draw, and the other one was a 6-1 win for Portland. What did Portland do differently in the second match?
Stumptown Footy: The simple answer is they inserted Diego Valeri back into the lineup.
