A tough road loss on the road, and the Portland Timbers aren’t looking too good on the road, and at home, a 3-2 loss against the Dynamo, and things aren’t looking any good for the Rose City side, and with no answers for the manager or the directives.

However, the team is looking forward to their next home match against the LA Galaxy.

One positive were the performances of Kristen Velde and Gage Guerra that, despite the lost effort, were the men of the match, along with James Pantemis.

In the end, there’s no solution for the Timbers’ current skid with no answers from manager Neville and the front office. How will this become a burden to the Timbers’ efforts? One way to find out!

The goals came from Gage Guerra just before halftime and Kristen Velde in the 80th minute to equalize the score before Houston’s Mateusz Bogusz scored the winner in second half stoppage time.
