We have been spoiled, Portland soccer fans; at least, when it comes to our Major League Soccer team, the soccer life has been good.
One month of nothing but weekend home games? Every weekend, Providence Park, not having to worry about mid-week games or early-evening starts. That’s the life we want.
Remember that this evening, when mid-week soccer returns. With their first visit to D.C. United’s Audi Field, the Portland Timbers are back on the road, looking to put their Saturday disappointment behind them (5pm PT, ROOT SPORTS). Thus starts a two-game, four-day stretch that thrusts them back into the reality of MLS.
