The Quakes have a quick turnaround this time with a rare Sunday match at home against Sporting Kansas City 4:30pm start.  Portland returns home to host Philadelphia on the same day 7pm kickoff. 

In the second game in one week the Quakes needed to have a quick turnaround from Wednesday’s loss to the Seattle Sounders to focus on another rival in the Portland Timbers. However, the home team had to play catchup from the start with an early 5th minute goal from Yimmi Chara. Chris Wondolowski had a chance to tie the game in the 61st minute only to have Timbers goalkeeper Logan Ketterer save the ball. Marvin Loria scored an insurance goal in the 74th minute giving the Quakes a 2-0 loss and their second in as many games.
