Jonathan Tannenwald @thegoalkeeper 11h11 hours ago Breaking: The @usopencup semifinal hosting draw has been postponed because the Timbers filed a protest “in relation to the number of foreign players fielded by Los Angeles Football Club during Wednesday night’s Quarterfinal,” U.S. Soccer says.
Nipun Chopra, PhD @NipunChopra7 11m11 minutes ago Inbox: Update on the Timbers/LAFC situation: ."... it has been determined that the inclusion of additional foreign players was a result of a good faith misunderstanding among U.S. Soccer, Major League Soccer and Los Angeles Football Club." Timbers have withdrawn their protest.
