Will Johnson: Timbers must face the reality
by Paul Kennedy on Sunday, Apr 20, 2014 7:10 PM EDT | [MLS SPOTLIGHT] The Portland Timbers remain winless in seven games after another loss to old nemesis Real Salt Lake Saturday night. It took a world-class
performance by Nick Rimando, back in the RSL goal after missing two games with a knee injury, but the Timbers are now 0-3-4. Coach Caleb Porter said the Timbers were the better team, but his captain, Will Johnson, said they continue to look like "amateurs" in crunch
time.

| Danger Ahead: Charging Goalkeepers
It seems likely to me that Portland Timbers goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts is the bulkiest, heaviest -- simply the largest -- player in MLS.
| | | WHAT THEY'RE SAYING | "Everyone wants to get through the first round: That's our goal. Jurgen [Klinsmann] has said, 'Our World Cup final is that first game against Ghana.' If we start well, there's no reason we can't get
through the first round. Then it's a knockout competition. So get through the first round and then we dream about more."
-- U.S. Soccer President Sunil Gulati on the
USA's 2014 World Cup quest. (NBCSN via MLSSOCCER.com)
