“Caicedo was a DAWG today,” says Kristoffer Velde #RCTID
It's spelled KELSY. #RCTID
"I wasn't thinking straight. I don't know if it was legal to jump on the log. Next time I might grab the chainsaw and cut the log myself." -Kristoffer Velde on his goal celebration #RCTID
That goal probably saves Phil Neville’s job for today. It shouldn’t. That performance wasn’t even close to good enough.
But it gives the Timbers’ leadership a story to tell itself. And they’ll undoubtedly tell it.
Glad—maybe more relieved—for the result. But things aren’t good. #RCTID
*Exhale* #RCTID
Neville OUT! #rctid
Never play a completely rotated squad when our coach's job is on the line? Or...something? IDK 🤷♀️ #RCTID
Green smoke erupts in the North End of Providence Park as Kevin Kelsy scores in stoppage time to put the Timbers ahead for good
OH MY GOD #RCTID
*Barely* hanging on at home against a heavily rotated LAFC team. No ideas in the attack. Soft defensively.
Every game Phil Neville is in charge is an act of charity to the rest of the league. #RCTID
FULL TIME: TIMBERS 2 - 1 LAFC
THE TIMBERS HAND THE VISITORS THEIR FIRST LOSS OF THE SEASON AND FINN SURMAN COLLAPSES TO THE GROUND IN TRIUMPHANT EXHAUSTION!! #RCTID
*Taps sign after Portland gets their biggest win of the year* #RCTID
ITS KEVIN KELSY AT THE DEATH, THE TIMBERS HAVE SURELY SNATCHED A LATE LEAD #RCTID
Phil runs to Kelsy to thank him for saving his job. #rctid
KEVIN KELSY HAS WON IT WITH THE LAST KICK OF THE GAME. THEY DIDN'T DESERVE A WIN, BUT THEY GOT ONE ANYWAY. SOME LEVEL OF VINDICATION? NOT AT ALL, BUT 3 POINTS AT HOME. #RCTID
Get a consistent team they said.
It’ll be fun they said.

I think paint dries quicker than the Timbers’ buildup play. #RCTID
nevilleball is, first and foremost, boring as hell #rctid
Coach is clearly out of ideas and the players are showing it. #RCTID
It's mindboggling how Portland's first instinct when they win the ball is to slow it down. Like they're playing for the draw. Unreal. Their own counters are broken. #RCTID
ABSOLUTELY UNACCEPTABLE
Regardless of the disallowed goal, Phil
Neville needs to be sacked!

Kelsy at the buzzer let's goooooooo!! #rctid
These guys. These ridiculous, maddening, exhausting, glorious guys.
The Portland Timbers, man. #RCTID
Kelsy, go figure. #rctid
