Sydney Leroux, Merritt Paulson Squabble on Social Media

It’s probably safe to say that Portland Timbers/Thorns owner Merritt Paulson and Orlando Pride forward Sydney Leroux aren’t the best of friends.

The two got into it a smidge after Orlando City’s 3-2 comeback win over the Timbers — during which Leroux’s husband Dom Dwyer scored the winning goal and also drew a key foul on Alvas Powell in the penalty area that allowed Sacha Kljestan to pull the Lions level.

Paulson tweeted his displeasure with the officiating (for which he’s since been fined by Major League Soccer) and accused Dwyer of diving.
