It's a new season and a rematch of MLS Cup for the Black & Gold and the Timbers.
Here we are at the start of a new Major League Soccer season. Columbus Crew SC can put 2015 behind them and focus on 2016 beginning Sunday.
The memories of a heartbreaking defeat in the MLS Cup Final may come creeping back in the opening fixture, as the Black & Gold travel out west to take on the Portland Timbers, the team that defeated Crew SC 2-1 at MAPFRE Stadium in December to take home the championship.
