By the time the Thorns kickoff against NJ/NY Gotham FC on Sunday, it will be 15 days between games at Providence Park. The Thorns last played there on June 20; the Timbers, June 26. With the Timbers having just started a 16-day break from play (set to return on July 17), Portland soccer is slowing down for all of us, but for those who’d found a rhythm of regular Thorns and Timbers games in Goose Hollow, the first full weeks have summer have come with a disruption.
When games return, so will the full experience at Providence Park.
