PBP: Casey's 12th Symphony - Rapids take on the Timbers in Hispterville for the Snow Classico Rematch

Portalnd supports their team... These fans are into it.

 

Is the turf at Portland really that different than natural grass? Looks like the ball is reacting as if on grass.

 

Yellow card to Valeri for taking down Rosenberry from behind.

 

Smith returns the favor and gets a yellow

 

Celo making sense about defenders taking cards way up field. The guy knows what he is talking about.

 

Tommy Smith awesome free header.

Into his goal.

 

Smith scores!!!!

 

Tommy Smith absolutely crushes a header into his own goal. WTF?

 

Wrong goal ... pathetic!!!

 

Does he get a slice of the tree trunk? Don't cheat him out of that.

 

anyone have a stream? listening to radio, but none of my usuals are coming through.

 

And Lewis equalizes... har

 

And Lewis scores!

 

Holy $€|€. We score!!!

 

That Porland GK has issues WRT positioning.

 

Blanco skins Vines with a simple cut in from wide right but Howard saves it.

 

Now I have video....happier now -

 

Very good back to back saves on Shinyashiki and Kamara shots. Great counter!

Edit: wrong name

 

Those need to go in

 

Wow

 

Damn, another good chance on a Kamara header of a Shinyashiki cross.

 

We deserve another goal. Keep up the pressure.!!

 

Those were well played shots on target. Credit goes to the 'keeper on those. Maybe Shinya shoulda placed it better.
The boys are playing well, taking it to the Timbers D.

 

As long as we score all the goals I’m happy.

 

Over at Coors, Kyle Freeland's doing the same stuff that led them to send him down. Missing high a lot.
