The Portland Timbers were completely unable to deal with FC Dallas's high pressure tonight and it cost them as the team went down 3-0 in the first half at Providence Park before picking their heads up and pulling a single goal back in the second half.
Giving up the first goal of the match for the fourth time this season, the Timbers found themselves down 1-0 in just the fourth minute. With Dallas pressing high, Ned Grabavoy played a square pass to Jack Jewsbury in the center of the pitch.
