A first victory for T2 will hopefully propel the team with the confidence to battle two more opponents this week on the road on Wednesday and Saturday.
The Portland Timbers 2 did their part this past weekend to secure a perfect 9 point weekend for all professional teams in the Rose City. With a victory at home for the Timbers, T2 were next up. And their opponent, Sacramento Republic were coming to Merlo Field undefeated and having not allowed a single goal against yet this season. On paper it looked like the visitors would walk away with all 3 points.
