and Dario zerich and Zach mcra they’ve been really steady in recent games as well just in front of pantus in the left wing back position but the big move is giving Brian White some time to reset by starting Fafa Pico right up front so a big important home game for the Portland Timbers here the White Caps won the reverse fixture at BC Place a couple of months ago in a game that Phil Neville said we looked like a pub team in the first half so he wasn’t happy with that performance of course outscored ing mistakes throughout much of the season and boy can they score goals their three designated players have been on a tear bur halter Taps that hand for Fafa Pico her first real open play now after awkward opening spell Javan Brown the Jamaican Taps that back for ranco vesovic for the White Caps and more Timbers Evander from Moreno looking to get it back not it’s to Mora Mora Evander there blocked by Javan Brown and balina clear for Vancouver what a block there from Brown sensing just the moment but Mora sets up a Vander and just that extra touch is what gave Brown the opportunity to come across Rodriguez just didn’t get much of that one it trickles into the hands of taka for zerich lands that one perfectly for Marino mcara on the overlap instead big switch for Rodriguez inside the box and headed towards the post but taoka has to to be careful falls to the ground no foul there the Border picks off the Mora pass here come the White Caps once more it’s V burh halter with the cross couldn’t connect with balina and a chance for chah to clear that into open space for [Applause] Marino ahead for Evander missed him Mora was there fortunately Evander now looking to get it back for Rodriguez swatted at by Brown and slotted in one nil Portland as the defending crumbles for the White Caps and the Timbers pounce Timbers out on the break quickly Moreno’s ball looked to be a little bit too far for rander and it was but Mora kept it alive and then there’s the pass Rodriguez on side the Miss from Brown and the clinical finish just slotting at home Beyond takaoka as he measures it up taka can get a small piece of it but not enough to keep it out and the Timbers have the first goal of the night they made it look easy ultimately and it was easy for Rodriguez in all that space is of sibling rivalry both coming in in 2011 and that man on the ball Diego Cha an Ever present since day one tripped up by Shu and Ted Uncle reaching into the pocket first yellow card of the evening to allesandro shop and it’s late on cha and as many fouls as chah gives out Shala Moreno he’s got space charging towards the Box tries one from distance and taka spills it a little bit but makes the save and it’s just a deep throw for Portland opening half and that one short from Tako bred and butter for McGraw and a foul there is Blackman held back Moreno he’ll get into the book for that one and that comes from the ball forward BR Blackman he tries to get by S Moreno games without a goal in MLS action and even some of the things that Brian White has done that vany stini loves so much defending from the front his spirit and everything else just a little bit seems to be gone right now for halter charged in into the box and volley opportunity from chu but that one floated we’re right at pentas and now here come the Timbers Mareno for Evander what a pass from a Scara had a chance to cross that in he does leaping and what a save by Taco CU Mora might have wanted just a bit more on that header but it was close for the timers it hits the turf as well and not near enough to the corner to really trouble the vancer keeper Ino takes over Mora Inside the Box tucks it in it seemed inevitable from Portland and Mora strikes again it’s 2-n for the Timbers what a finish from Felipe Mora having just missed that opportunity moments ago chra with the ball straight down Main Street and then after taking a little touch to get away from the defender Mora opens up turns and Spins and Tack Goa cannot get near [Applause] It Fabulous goal from the Timbers swarming offensive phases by Portland for much of this opening half does have the long throw capability so the White Caps will try to utilize that not a big run up though here at Providence Park Points one just to the edge of the six rattles around velovic had to slide down his back and is clear Mareno spins as he made the turn jro or Mareno again some fancy footwork got out of trouble and he’s gone that’s the second time has sh the door it’s a yellow it’s the exact same thing he got the yellow in the first half for him it’s silly from the veteran player he should know better maybe some frustration here as it’s nice trickery for Moreno but that’s a yellow card worthy offense and Ted Uncle he’s right there he’s got no option to pull out a second yellow that’s Lovich pushing forward looking for javain brown in the corner the Jamaican will not be able to catch up with it and another car being handed up Shala looks like he’s gone into the book he starts it down the left side Central for ton for Evander in space has Mareno ups for mcara wide mcara dropping for Mareno right at the keeper a perfect buildup by the [Music] timers and a yellow card coming to the Vancouver bench now right go applauding perhaps liking the spirit as bench is showing Williamson chipping over the wall but can’t get it down in time I don’t know if Messi could get it in from that close to goal but there’s the final whistle from 10 uncle and this one is in the books

That second yellow is bs on Vancouver, why even do that fowl on a second yellow in your own half
