Best in the Bubble: Portland Timbers Win MLS Is Back Title

The Portland Timbers don't have far to go if they want to celebrate their latest trophy in traditional American sports style.

The Timbers claimed the MLS Is Back title on Disney World's sports complex ground Tuesday night, edging Orlando City 2-1 to cap MLS's return-to-play tournament. The win gives the Portland Timbers a unique trophy for their case at Providence Park, but more importantly, it seals a place in the 2021 Concacaf Champions League. The victory also comes with $300,000 of the league's $1.1 million prize money pool, while Orlando City takes home $150,000 for reaching the final.
