Berhalter late runs was one of my nightmares, but, per that meme from The Matrix…not like this.

Or that. The thing Caicedo just did.

The Timbers exceeded my expectations. Never expected to feel robbed in this one. #VANvPOR #rctid

GOAL #VWFC with a stoppage time goal of their own to take a 3-2 lead over Cascadia rival Portland.

Sebastian Berhalter top of the box. James Pantemis got a hand to the ball but it wasn't enough.

Yeah, if that’s goal-bound that’s an easy penalty call, but to give that for a hopeful cross to the back post?

Crap. #VANvPOR

There will be 5 minutes of second half stoppage time.

GOAL Thomas Müller scores from the penalty spot.

#VWFC have tied the match 2-2 vs #RCTID

That is a really, really, really weak call. #VANvPOR

#VWFC have earned a penalty.

Thomas Müller is holding the ball at the spot. 2-1 89'

No matter how this ends, Portland’s energy has been enough to keep me on the wagon. #VANvPOR #rctid

Caicedo looks like a handful. #VANvPOR

The announced attendance is 25,465 to watch #VWFC vs #RCTID on a lovely spring evening at BC Place.

Fun fact, largest #VWFC crowd of the season.

Bruno Caicedo is on for his #VWFC debut.

Sabaly is off.

Ortiz has been good. This will be a theme in the post-game. #VANvPOR #rctid

Man, that’s a lotta time left. #VANvPOR

Good call. Think the kid (Johnson?) ran across Velde’s path. #VANvPOR

need help finding the yellow ref? #VANvPOR

That goal right before the half is a little deflating but we largely had control of the game #VANvPOR

AT THE HALF:

The vibe went from pretty good to real damn good over the final 10 minutes. The Timbers whethered a press with a spiderweb behind it to pull two goals back. Even if it’s a case of causing the goals over creating them, Portland pulled out of a shaky start. Woo! #VANvPOR #rctid

If Da Costa can serve me crow like that, I’ll eat it every week. The Timbers go up 2-1 on a peach of a goal by DDC and an arguably better feed from Mosquera.

Happy. #VANvPOR #rctid
