Six points in two days is just about as sweet as it gets here in Rose City. I could go on and on about how great it is to have the Portland Timbers and Portland Thorns FC back in action, but since Grant Little is significantly better about talking Thorns, I’m going to stick to the Timbers. Because man, what a great night for the lads in green and gold.
For starters, they won 2-1 over Sporting Kansas City. Anytime you get three points, you’re happy, so that’s a good start. Second, Sebastian Blanco played for the first time since tearing his ACL back in September 2020.
