The Portland Timbers dug themselves a big hole getting down 3-0 but Evander scored his first goal as a Portland Timber to cut the deficit to 3-1. Parades would score later for the Timbers, and the Timbers had a shot as time ran out off of a corner kick, but it wasn’t there as LAFC defeated the Timbers 3-2. With the loss, the Timbers fall to 1-1 on the season while LAFC got 3 points in their first match. Up next for the Timbers is a match on Saturday, March 11th against St. Louis from Providence Park
