This is the overwhelming vibe I’ve had after most of the Timbers’ matches in 2026. #RCTID

Full Time: LA Galaxy 2 - 0 Portland Timbers A lot of barking but very little biting from the Timbers, who had two decent spells to open both halves. LA score two routine goals, and the Timbers fall 6pts behind them in the West. #RCTID

HOW can you leave that big target that free inside your box? How can that happen with your season potentially on the line? It’s so poor. #RCTID

81’ Ortiz and Lassiter depart for Fernandez and Chara. #RCTID

80’ Dagger goal for the Galaxy. 2-0. Reus whips a free kick into the box and Haak powers an uncontested header past Pantemis. That’s likely game over, and very well could be season over for the Timbers. #RCTID

Ian Smith decidedly *not* as fast as Joseph Paintsil. #RCTID

65’ Completely different first 15 minutes of the second half from the Timbers. They need to find a way to capitalize on all this pressure. #RCTID

62’ Velde is dispossessed by Garces and retaliates with a late challenge which earns him yellow. Ian Smith replaces Jimer Fory. #RCTID

58’ Janssen can’t direct a dipping Velde cross on-frame, but man that was a great ball from Kris. #RCTID

54’ Another mazy run from Velde into the box results in him testing the ‘keeper. He has shot out of the halftime break like a cannonball. #RCTID

50’ FREE HEADER for Kamal Miller off the corner delivery, it looked destined for the top corner after the center back powered it into the ground. Marcinkowski saved, the 2nd corner was cleared as far as Velde, and the Norwegian’s wicked hit from distance screamed wide. #RCTID

HALFTIME: LA Galaxy 1 - 1 Portland Timbers The Galaxy dominated the Timbers in, well, just about everything in that first half. With the season is teetering on the brink of destruction, what are we drinking? #RCTID

45+2’ The Timbers FINALLY get a shot on-target through Velde as he latches onto a failed clearance. Comfortable save from Marcinkowski. #RCTID

One of the latest whistles a whistle has ever whistled… Bad call. #RCTID

38’ “Nobody for the Portland Timbers anywhere near the rebound” the call from Keith Costigan as Pantemis parries a long-distance strike from Calegari into the box. #RCTID

Finn Surman is to the Timbers’ backline what Spiderman is to a train about to fly off the tracks. #RCTID

31’ Ok I’ll admit, I completely forgot the Galaxy signed Sergi Roberto. #RCTID

21’ The Galaxy are just shredding this Portland defense. Paintsil nutmegs Fory and squares the ball to Klauss, who takes a touch and fires narrowly wide via deflection. After a bright opening 10 minutes the Timbers are lucky to only be down by 1. #RCTID

19’ Reus has the ball in the back of the net again, but very clearly offside. #RCTID

Stumptown Footy @stumptownfooty.bsky.social · 8h
17’ Galaxy score through Reus, 1-0 Hernandez caught out by a long ball over the top to Robert Taylor, and Marco Reus ghosts between Waterman and Kamal Miller to sweep home the opener. Easy, easy goal. #RCTID

5’ Big Vinny nods home a pinpoint cross from Lassiter on the right wing, but he’s a full body-length offside. Two minutes later he forces a point-blank save from Marcinkowski inside the six-yard box. #RCTID

The Timbers (10th, 33pts) have a game in hand over the Galaxy (9th, 36pts), who occupy the final play-in spot. Real Salt Lake (11th, 33pts) are currently 0-0 vs San Jose. Crucial they get at least a draw tonight to stay within touching distance of the post-season. #RCTID

BTW, @alex-barnes.bsky.social here to bring you a big 6-pointer: Timbers at LA Galaxy! Portland are winless in their last five, conceding 11 goals and taking 2 out of 15 points during that spell. Not to mention they’ve only won twice on the road this year... #RCTID

Joao Ortiz retains his starting spot in the midfield for the second match running, alongside Jose Caicedo and David da Costa. First choice front 3 and backline. Izoita, Bassett, Aravena, Omir, Antony off the bench. #RCTID

FULL TIME: Sporting 3, Timbers 3. Portland squanders a 3-1 second half lead in a matter of minutes and is forced to settle for a draw on the road. So much good undone by so critical of mistakes. Portland remains in 10th place, three points adrift. #RCTID

Eric Izoita is brave beyond his 19 years. Just fearless running and pressing trying to will his side to three points. #RCTID

Emir Karic is really pulling up at his left back spot, but SKC is out of subs. Portland effectively playing up a man for the duration here. #RCTID

Stumptown Footy @stumptownfooty.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
+7 coming at the end here, right as Calvin Harris sends a breakaway shot well high of Portland's goal. I think I can say that that is *not* what the SKC fans came for (but baby it is what *I* came for) #RCTID

For as mom's spaghetti as Portland's defense has been collectively tonight, Kamal Miller has been a very good standout. #RCTID

Stumptown Footy @stumptownfooty.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Five minutes plus stoppage time to go, knotted up at 3-3. Sure feels like Portland is likelier to lose this game than win it. Hell, maybe even more likely than just a draw. #RCTID

Take a commanding 2-0 lead, give away an awful penalty to let SKC back in. Go 3-1 up in the 64th, allow two soft goals in a 9 minute span to make it 3-3. Against one of the worst teams MLS has ever produced. It’s just as bad as losing to Austin and Atlanta at home. #RCTID

The Timbers went from pulling away with a two goal advantage to seeing it evaporate in the matter of just nine minutes. Timbers soccer in 2026, everybody. #RCTID

73' Aaaand goal SKC again. Portland gets burned badly by Andre Luiz on the counter. And just like that, we're all square. WELP. #RCTID

70' Goal SKC. Portland fails to clear danger, and Reynolds collects to curls home the home side's second. #RCTID

Stumptown Footy @stumptownfooty.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Ariel Lassiter is up to a goal and assist tonight, along with a "spiritual" assist on Portland's penalty with the pass in for Velde. Have yourself a night Ari. #RCTID

59' Jansen Miller - the lesser Jans(s)en and Miller on the field imo - is finally shown a yellow card for pulling back Velde. #RCTID

SKC coming out of the gates strong to start the second half. Really catching the Timbers on their heels and threatening from the wings. Portland has to ride it out a bit, here. #RCTID

Stumptown Footy @stumptownfooty.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
Apologies: we are back for the second half! Timbers hold a 2-1 lead. And so, I am still saying: Go Trees. #RCTID

Stumptown Footy @stumptownfooty.bsky.social · 11/10/2026
HALFTIME: SKC 1, Timbers 2. Portland controls most of the half and goes ahead via Da Costa, and a wild end to the first half sees the teams trade penalty kicks. The Timbers head to the locker room with a one goal advantage. What are we drinking tonight, gang? #RCTID

45'+6 Goal SKC. Pantemis saves the initial shot and puts it off the post, but Luiz collects his own rebound to score. 2-1 now in favor of Portland. #RCTID

45' Jansen Miller cleans out Velde in the box after making zero contact with the ball. Gotta be a pen here, dude. #RCTID

44' Lassiter blasts a bouncing shot up into the Cauldron. Came after Velde drove at the back line and squared for Janssen. Vinny awkwardly laid it off for Ari, and the ball caught Lassiter off-balance. #RCTID
