Timbers show who they really are, Thorns say goodbye to World Cup players

Soccer Made in Portland

The Portland Timbers are who we thought they were. At least that’s how Soccer Made in Portland co-host Chris Rifer sees it.

On this week’s episode, Rifer and Ryan Clarke discuss the Timbers’ sputtering loss to the Chicago Fire and diagnose the myriad issues facing a team that sits outside the MLS Cup playoff picture. Before that, though, plenty to talk about with the Portland Thorns’ recent run of play, which has not lived up to the club’s championship standards. Plus, a 2023 FIFA World Cup preview for the USWNT and other nations!
