2-1. Valeri with a sick turnaround shot. Frei had no chance

WOW...this game is fun. Seattle getting schooled on the wings. As much as we are not happy with the 4-4-2 of TFC, sticking with a 4-3-3 with less then defensive minded forwards is going to hurt you in this league.

Schmid getting outcoached here.

Urruti scores for Portland minutes after Chara gets his second of the game. Terrible giveaway from Seattle, Urruti curls a beauty into the top corner from the edge of the box.

4-4 heading into stoppage in Portland, Dempsey with the hat trick. How did Portland let this one slip away...

Defensive blunders getting punished this season. Amerikwa takes one off a tumbling Union defender and lays it in for Magee.

Loving these Eastern conference ties. Macmath saves a last-kick-of-the-game Magee penalty to preserve the 2-2 draw between Philly and Chicago.

Colorado immediately scores. 1-1. Laba must not be feeling too great right about now.

Laba was jobbed by some amateur officiating IMO. Yet another example of a ref who doesn't understand the difference between officiating a professional match and a mens league game.

Strangely, I can get the TFC matches on MLS Live, but not the Van or Mtl matches. I use Unblock-US, so it's a bit weird, but I don't mind. I can watch them during the week.

I'm currently on DC-NE, which has been a bit uninspired so far.

within letter of the rules, it was intentional handball by Laba for 2nd yellow. also delay of the game if you're being strict

watch Houston-Dallas for El Capitan, which I found out is a Civil War era cannon for a trophy

Good call. That's probably a better match.

you can also watch all 3 games at once with MLS live ;)

The Apple TV app doesn't do that on my tv. I could do it in the computer, I suppose, but then I'd have to get off the couch ;)

I'll eventually watch them all, or at least the 20 minute condensed versions. That's what I like about MLS Live.

A good official wouldn't have missed the initial foul. The whole sequence reeked of poor game management and discretion. That's the difference between a professional and a lot of the amateurs.

Yes the letter of the law says that's a yellow, but we've all seen plenty of sequences out there where the officials simply blow that sort of thing down as opposed to head for their pocket book.

Great fucking atmosphere in Portland. Wow!
And terrific rivalry between those two.

McMath made a great PK save right at the death to get the Union a point. Worth a second look that.

Seriously fantastic week in MLS... This league has grown so much in the last 7 years. Cascadia game was absolutely immense, MTL v NYRB was fantastic and TFC came together as team and played one hell of a match to win their 2nd road match this year.

Seattle fanboys on mlssoccer will be going mental with 3 Portland goals and none of theirs.

"What do you mean Dempsey's penalty wasn't goal of the week?!?!?! Didn't you see the subtle difference in his post goal celebration?!?!? It blew my mind."

Jose Mari's FTW.

Catching up with last weeks games now. Bad day for Frei, another one for Urruti. His didn't look like it would make a difference but did in the end.

Edu and Amerikwa in on goals. Not the best quality game but pretty exciting.

Laba cost Vancouver 2 points.

It's still weird hearing Mariner cover NE games. I guess he's found a home. Dire match vs DC though.
