It’s easy to read too much into 45 minutes of February soccer at the Kino Sports Complex in Tucson.
But for the half that they played on Wednesday evening, a not-quite-first-choice Portland Timbers side looked good.
Really good.
Okay, pretty good.
Here are three questions from the Timbers’ 1-1 draw with the Dynamo:
1. Now are we all feeling good about the prospect of Lucas Melano and Dairon Asprilla on the wings?
Okay, I told myself I wasn’t going to get ahead of myself based on 45 minutes of preseason soccer, but Melano and Asprilla were (along with Diego Valeri) the best players on the field.
