Portland Timbers Briefly
Marti Cifuentes isn’t a happy guy after his side dropped points against a renewed FC Dallas side, losing 2-1 on the road and making the road to the playoffs tougher. The debutante manager isn’t looking forward to making bows to his players as the Timbers have won just twice in their last seven matches.
Still, for the man from Catalyna, he is looking for a winning streak and looking forward to seeing a run into the postseason.

Tata Martino isn’t a very happy man either as his second tenure with the Five Stripes lose four straight and are second bottom of the Eastern Conference. Atlanta needs to start winning and now if they are not to be cut adrift of the chase to get above the playoff line.
