The Portland Timbers tied Carolina 0-0 on the first of four Saturday road matches in a row. Next up, Puerto Rico.
The Timbers clinched a playoff berth the week before, so the team will now be jockeying for playoff position the rest of the season – the top eight teams make it to the playoffs with conference champs the top two seeds. Currently the Timbers are in 3rd place in the USL Conference, behind Rochester and Austin.
