Full game as Portland (8th in the West) lose 3-1 at Austin (12th). Timbers 3-0 down after 29 mins.
Tuiloma (no 25) has a cross sail over his leap for Austin's 2nd goal. Then he saves off the line, but unfortunately home team quickly follow up to score their 3rd. Cool looking stadium they have.

If AWs do get some friendlies in Oct/Nov windows, ideally want Portland & Chicago out of playoff contention, so hopefully both Tuiloma & Collier available. Likely Boxall's MU will definitely be in the MLS playoffs, which I think clashes with Nov FIFA window.

A lot of the MLS stadia are great, they’ve made it a big point for new teams to have their own specialist stadiums to avoid rent and stadium share annoyances. Minnesota’s home ground was finished a bit after their entry, before they were playing on an NFL pitch, painted astroturf and all. Opposite of A League where you have several teams across several sports sharing the same grounds.
Hay letting Singh go to Jahn instead of Tokyo shows he’s up to allowing players stay at key times, and then he’ll get the MLS contingent free for January, though if there are Oct/Nov fixtures could be a couple debuts/recalls for guys who are conveniently in Europe/US (Musa, Billingsley, Rogerson, Stensness, Wilkins, Stevens and De Vries etc).
