The 2016 Cascadia Cup continues Sunday as Seattle Sounders FC host the Portland Timbers (6:30pm PT, FS1). Portland currently sits atop the Cascadia standings with six points and ahead of Vancouver Whitecaps FC based on goal differential in the season-long competition between the three clubs.
Created by the supporters of the Sounders, Whitecaps and Portland Timbers, the Cascadia Cup has been around since 2004. It was contested by all three teams in USL until 2009, when the Sounders made their MLS debut. The Whitecaps and Timbers continued battling for the Cup in the lower divisions until 2011, when both moved up into MLS, allowing the Sounders to get back in on the competition.
