The Portland Timbers continued their winning streak in MLS, while Cristian Techera scored a hat-trick for the Vancouver Whitecaps on Saturday.
The Timbers extended their run to six straight wins thanks to a 3-2 victory over the Colorado Rapids.
Samuel Armenteros opened the scoring for Portland approaching the half-hour mark, finding the top corner after a brilliant turn.
But the Rapids found an immediate response, Julio Cascante turning a cross into his own net.
An Armenteros header restored the Timbers' lead before Diego Valeri made it 3-1 after a counter-attack.
Yannick Boli netted a late penalty for Colorado, but Portland closed out their win to move into third in the Western Conference.
