Well that was frustrating! The Portland Timbers have lost five in a row, but last week, they stayed in the match for all 90+ minutes. And if not for three different penalty shouts that all went against PTFC, they might have left Dallas with a point, or even three. That said, the defense still looked questionable, so it’s not all on the ref. But he definitely didn’t help when he swallowed his whistle near the end of the match which then finished 2-1 in favor of FC Dallas. In another bright spot, Cristhian Paredes got his first goal of the season with a late run out of midfield.
