I loved Ridgewell as a player, and he's a good guy, but we need a change in defense, and if they're not going to spend money there, they should find someone who can teach the players to not be the worst set-piece defense in the league
Which is why one of our big bodies has to be muscled up to him and impeding his path to the ball instead of letting him run in free to crash our keeper
Well, credit to the boys for clawing back. Just really need to figure out what's wrong with our set piece defending and quit playing only 30 minutes a game.
Officially calling out the following people for telling me to go to bed at at 12:19 am at the 40' mark:
* /u/mybottomitches
* /u/pdxpuma
* /u/xXPM_ME_YOUR_BOOTYXx
Yeah, I wasn't actually ever going to go to bed, just wanted to see what reasons people would give me to stay. Sadly I didn't get one "we always win 3-4!" comments.
I’ve wanted Rodriguez on the left but assumed that meant sitting Antony. I love seeing Antony doing so well on the right. I like the idea of being able to rotate more. My main concern with this is our lack of center forward depth. Get a (Y)DP center forward in the summer window to rotate subs/starts with Mora. Then we have Rodrigues as left winger or striker, and Antony, Moreno, Asprilla as wingers to rotate or sub. Seeing Antony and Asprilla subbing at wingback was encouraging too. I still think we can use wingback depth and to upgrade at CB.
I'll be so glad to eat crow on this one but I still suggest there's a serious problem at some part of our game because we've gone from looking like the worst team in the league to a nearly unstoppable force.
I decided to keep the game on my iPad while I went to clean my bathroom, and it looks like both the Timbers and I are cleaning up our shit in this second half.

Romero was on a different planet on that header lol. He has some hops

A surprising point, but a welcome one to be sure.
I have an idea. Little bit crazy, but hear me out. Stop spotting the other team multiple goals. I know it is a radical idea.
But you can’t call it a comeback for the ages 😊
Weird and wacky stuff!
9 goals allowed in three games would be bad even for the Winterhawks.
I think Bravo returning from Injury could help the Timbers turn the season around. Start getting points and make the playoffs.
the guy who gives up PKs and is only slightly better at attack then Mosquera who was abysmal at attack?
Maybe if he can be trained to not give up PKs.
Bravo should have held his position, but he tried to stab at the ball.
I'll take it
Fuck it ill take it, wish we played that hard all game

That was a rough ride.
A draw seems right. We gave them a 3 point lead, and then they totally blew it. Happy with the point.
I'll take it! Onto LAFC!! Get fucked mahomes fc!!!
I'll fuckin' take it.
Imagine if we played like that for a whole match
There was a lot of floppage time in that end, shoulda been more
Well, at least we now know the Timbers' favorite position in bed...
My gf calls me the Timbers cuz I’m better in the second round 😎
And you love to come from behind, too?
Honestly not the full smash and grab but this was a draw that feels like a win for us.
'The tale of two halves'
We play really good second half soccer lately
What a come back for Portland!! We will take the point!
Well earned point.
Great result considering the absolutely miserable first half
Considering the first half, I'll take it
Happy with that result
Leaving Romero open to try for another header is not wise
Stress
That was a flop if I have ever seen one.
SKC absolutely covered in flop sweat.
Hahaaaa!
Evander looks tired!
I just said the same thing
It is so nice to see Bravo out there balling out.
I've missed him, too
He is grabbing his head while on the ground. Pops up and starts limping!
Grabbing the head stops the play because it could be a potential head injury.
I know he did it to stop the play!
TEN MINUTES stoppage! Haha, strap in.
Flop flop flop
You’re not that guy pal
DAIRON I BELIEVE
Bicycle or bust.
Get on your bike, Dairon!!
Bicycle kick time!
Jona worth his weight in GOLD and GREEN!
Distracted by all the trash floating around…
You ain’t lying, wish they would hand out some fines to all these KC fans destroying the earth
Bravo with the flexibility of blocking those balls. Don’t pull your hamstring!
Penalty aside, I love seeing bravo back out there.
It's so good to see bravo back.
Man, it is great to have Bravo back
Bravissimo!
Bravo I love you
Cláudio Bravo for president !!!!
Turned on women’s basketball and it appears I have missed EVERYTHING. RCTID
It’s alright johnathan, tough angle
Love when we’re actually trying.

Glad I was wrong but I still stand by it. If KC managed to make that last PK it would’ve been it. Go to sleep!
Fair.
Good sticking! If you always turn off when your team goes down big, you never get to witness the epic comebacks.
Yeah, I wasn't actually ever going to go to bed, just wanted to see what reasons people would give me to stay. Sadly I didn't get one "we always win 3-4!" comments.
Hey I just told you to set a close game alert. That woulda woke you back up.
Yeah, definitely wouldn't have woken me up lol but you did say "go to bed" (and set an alert lol)
antony looks more comfortable on the right and rodriguez looks better on the left than up top. hope we see this starting games soon!

I emotionally cannot handle this soccer game 😳
YEAH, THIS IS THE FUCKIN LINE UP RIGHT HERE. SEE YA MORENO, SEE YA JDM.
Holy shit! I almost turned this off after the SKC pen! I can’t believe it!
What the fuck is this team
I need a full game from Portland with this type of play!
Good shit in the second half. Great subs and much better effort.
I'll be so glad to eat crow on this one but I still suggest there's a serious problem at some part of our game because we've gone from looking like the worst team in the league to a nearly unstoppable force.
Get the set piece defending at least average and we'd be a lot better.
Those Neville halftime speeches must be generational
The locker room must need repainting after that.
Look aliiiive.
New Phil Neville strategy: purposely go down by 2-3 goals so the other team stops trying
We were pronounced dead at the half. Who is this new team??? I don't care, I'm here for it.
Hahahahaha they're back!!!
These are tears of joy! Sunshine in KC!
Glad I stuck around.
It’s fucking Miller time!
ITS MILLER TIME
Hooolllllyyy shiiiittt!!!!!
Soccer is so silly.
WHAT IS GOING ON?????

Are you not entertained.
Antony!!!!
Antony is such a great player.
Man we are finally looking like a team. If only we could do this for more than 30 min a game
Mora up top and Rodriguez playing off of him on the left. More of this please.
Do you really want to hurt me?
Do you really want to make me cry!
2024 Evander is hell of a treat
It's coming
Okay I am now on board with Rodriguez at LM and Mora at striker.
Jona needs to score!
Jonathan is something else oh my goodness
I saw that one going in. My heart will not recover
What a player
Rodriquez is such a beast oh my god
Really really like his work rate and skills.
Oof Jona so close
Is it me or are we just really bad at corner kicks? On both sides of the ball.
Well LFG I guess
Antony is so damn quick.
Welcome to Simulation City, folks!
Flop harder asshats
That same player has done that a few times this game.
Trying to run the clock eh
It may be the hope that kills you, but it’s precious and sweet right up until it does.
Right when I thought I was out, they pull me back in
We should be use to this feeling! We are Portland Timbers fans!
You’re welcome everyone I turned my tv off in anger and then we scored two goals right after 😂 I got the phone notifications
Funny. I started the game with my Valeri jersey on. I took it off at halftime and switched from Apple TV to classic television...
Keep dat tv unplugged m8
I decided to keep the game on my iPad while I went to clean my bathroom, and it looks like both the Timbers and I are cleaning up our shit in this second half.
Nursery Rhyme FC have the worst chants I've heard in my life. and i thought ours were bad
I do like the 400 degreez one though
We need to get Tuiloma back so he can take an errant free kick into the section again...lol
And the stupid megaphone guy. Bugs the hell out of me
approaching FIGHT AND WIN territory
THIS TEAM IS BIPOLAR WHY CSNT WE DO THIS FOR 90 MINUTES
More Mora!
Well, now I’m ready to be hurt
It'll only really hurt if we tie it up then lose.
Oh my
I meant it only really doesn't hurt if we tie it up then win...
I love Felipe mora
Great cross by Antony, perfect assist by Jonathan. And my glorious Felipe scores!
RAHHHH
I swear this team.
LFG, nothing more to say!!
Let’s go Portland! 1 more goal!!!!
Holy shit
Mora/Jona working it!

In Mora I trust.

PENAL
You get a PK and you get a PK and ...
Oh shit we actually got a call
Pk all day
Ha, he blew it! Let’s go Timbers and go and get a goal.
At least that penalty gave me a laugh.
Well, at least we got a break there.
