Portland v Seattle (2-3) - Seattle Rallies Twice to Chop Down Rival Timbers
The Timbers limped into the derby on a six match winless slide while the Sounders came in red hot
unbeaten in seven.
Portland's Strategy
For the second straight match, Kenny Cooper was left on the bench. John Spencer elected to play
4-1-4-1 to congest the midfield. Marcelin was brought on and played in a defensive midfield role
for Portland.
