Unfortunately those above scorelines stay the same, and Dallas (finish 7th) leaps over the Timbers in the Western Conference standings.
So Portland (8th) now have the extra midweek workload of hosting Real Salt Lake (9th) in the one off wildcard game, to find the 8th quarterfinalist in the West.
Even if Portland win that game, they would then face today's opponents San Diego (1st in the West) in the 3 game QF playoffs. After today's 4-0 drubbing in Oregon, you wouldn't give the Timbers much of a chance of upsetting SD.
