34 regular season matches and one knockout round win: Welcome to the Western Conference semifinals.
After getting the win in Dallas, the Timbers had to wait a day to find out who they would be facing, and — as luck, or fate, would have it — the Seattle Sounders are coming to town for the first leg of the Western Conference semifinals. Being second in the West, the Sounders got the coveted first-round bye, so they should be well rested and ready to go: The last time they played was Decision Day, where they finished with a 2-1 win over San Jose at home.
