The rivalry between the Portland Timbers vs Seattle Sounders soccer teams is rather legendary. Over the years, the two teams have taken part in some intense matches but last night’s Major League Soccer match was unlike anything that we have seen before. It was a fell fought and a well-contested match between the two teams but Portland won it 2-1.

Rivalries like we saw this weekend are good for @MLS. I am thrilled to see El Trafico emerge & hope the league develops more authentic rivalries but if you have been paying attention to Timbers-Sounders, you know there is no replacement for decades & generations of passion.

We’ve seen Sounders sides with way more heart and intensity. There wasn’t anyone out there motivating the team on to get that equalizer. They passed the ball sideways to end the first half.
The Timbers come away from Seattle happy 3 times in a row. That’s embarrassing.

Sounders-Timbers just reminded El Trafico of what a real rivalry is.
