Portland Timbers punish Real Salt Lake with confident 3-0 rout, snarktography approves

The Portland Timbers made Real Salt Lake look bad. Again. This is getting fun! On Sunday, October 21, RSL visited Providence Park and brought a whole lot of nothing with them (well, except diving and whining). The Timbers scored three goals, retained a clean sheet, and exemplified a whole load of class while doing so. (The part about class is not true according to all sources, but it is at least from the relevant ones I trust.)

The following is a collection of photographs from the match, accompanied by an attempt at stupid humor.

If you would like to read serious analysis, with even more photos, take a look at Kip Kesgard's match report.
