LAST MATCH RECAP The Timbers dictated the flow of the match, maintaining the majority of possession and holding Cascadia-rival Vancouver Whitecaps FC to no shots on goal in the second half, while recording their fourth shutout of the season in a scoreless draw in front of a sellout crowd of 21,144 fans May 2 at Providence Park. Portland registered 65 percent of the possession throughout the match, finishing with a 13-7 advantage in shots in the Cascadia derby.

Providence Park opened on April 14, 2011, in front of a sold-out crowd in the Timbers first-ever home match as an MLS team. The club proceeded to sell out all of its regular-season home games in the team’s first four MLS seasons. Spanning the 2013 and 2014 seasons, the Timbers compiled an MLS-club record 22-game unbeaten streak (12-0-10) at Providence Park from April 6, 2013 to June 1, 2014. The streak ranks as the third-longest all-time in MLS history.
