FINAL | POR 3-2 STL #RCTID
A nervy ending but the Timbers still ultimately end St. Louis’ 12 match home unbeaten streak.
Two statement victories in the last four days, Portland are firmly back in the playoff picture - just two points back with two games to go.
Velde’s last four goals are all against St. Louis and this is the best of the bunch.
Portland are opening some eyeballs with their last two performances. #RCTID
HALF | POR 2-0 STL #RCTID
The Timbers DP’s are causing HAVOC off the left wing and scored two similar goals. Two goals in nine minutes.
Still 45 to play by St. Louis hasn’t lost at home since late April… Fully deserved lead for Portland.
Surprised not to see Finn Surman back in the starting XI but Joel Waterman played great against Charlotte.
Really interested to watch DDC play as the striker ahead of Janssen
Three starters out for St. Louis tomorrow, only new injury for Portland is backup GK Trey Muse who got hurt in training yesterday. #RCTID

"The togetherness in the group is so good right now, all the older guys are really nice to me… Everybody is together and wants to win.”
“My family is my biggest supporters… My grandparents started coming to the games too.”
Marti Cifuentes after the 3-2 victory:
“Too long since we’ve had the feeling, a very deserved win.”
“I said to him (Izoita) after the game that he is playing at a very high level, I am so happy with him. He’s growing every training, he’s growing in confidence. I’m happy with the competition in this position.”
“I’m aware that we still have three finals in front of us.”
“The team responded exactly as good as we good could expect.”
“We need to keep believing, and that’s exactly what we did.”
“Jose (Caicedo) has a really high ceiling, he’s got the qualities to be a really good no. 6. We speak that sometimes he starts a bit slow. It cost us the first goal, he responded well.” #RCTID
