What We’ll Remember most about the Portland Timbers’ 2-1 victory today over Toronto FC goes beyond the final score. After finally breaking into the win column last week, last year’s Western Conference Champions needed to prove their performance in Columbus wasn’t a fluke. Only then could those looking from beyond the locker room have enough proof to say the turnaround is real.
Well, the turnaround is real. With goals from Bill Tuiloma and Jeremy Ebobisse, the Timbers looked like their late 2018 selves. They proved tough to break down, only allowing six shots, while resourceful in how they created chances.
