Twitter feud: Portland Timbers call out Nigel de Jong, Los Angeles Galaxy for tackle on Darlington Nagbe

Portland Timbers midfielder Darlington Nagbe was stretchered off in the second half of Sunday's game after Los Angeles Galaxy midfielder Nigel de Jong stomped on his ankle -- and the Timbers are clearly very unhappy about it.

The Timbers called out the Los Angeles Galaxy on Twitter shortly after the game writing, "Hey @LAGalaxy, last year this acct justified a RC on Ridgewell w/a pic of a bruise. Any pithy commentary on De Jong? Are you even surprised?"

Ridgewell was issued a red card at Los Angeles last June after kicking LA forward Alan Gordon in the back.
