The Portland Timbers gave up another early goal and never recovered en route to losing 4-1 to Orlando City SC in tonight's nationally televised match. Although the Timbers spent much of the match pressing forward, the side was never in control as Orlando punished their repeated sloppy play.
The Timbers started the match on the back foot, giving up the first goal for the third time this season as City struck in the 13th minute. After the Timbers gave up a foul thirty yards from goal, Orlando's captain, Kaka, curled a well placed free kick into the Timbers box where defender Seb Hines rose up to meet it.
