So far, best game of mls this season. Crazy atmosphere, Heated rivalry, sexy finishes, and picture perfect storylines. Doesn't get much better then this folks.
This is the best rivalry in the league. In every single match, both teams play top quality football, and the atmosphere is electrifying. Keep up the great shows. From a United fan
Yep don't listen to Bradyn Sporting Kc, Real Salt Lake, Philadelphia Union, Vancouver Whitecaps, New York Red Bulls, New England Revolution, Chicago Fire all have great support
Bradyn Baez lies. the average attendance in MLS is going up by the year. a new record of 19000+ this season and not to mention Chivas USA, the lowest attendance in the league (7000), are gonna be gone next season
I watched the whole game and I can remember at least 4 VERY clear chances on goal that aren't shown in this video, and I'm sure there were some others too. Yes, I know that they should have made a 20 minutes video, but believe me, the game was even better than what you see in these highlights.
Part of the noise was actually Sounders fans. On the last two goals from the Sounders you can clearly hear the Sounders drums and the Emerald City Supporters chanting "Take 'em All"
77atatme Yes mate. Especially the last ten minutes with that "Seattle Sounders Ole, na na na na na na" :D Love how MLS has kept the segregation, so you have an away "end" at some games because travelling support all tend to be up for it.
UA-camCJ71 That's really great to hear, I'm glad that some Europeans are actually willing to open their minds to our league. Makes me hopeful for what the league will become in the future. And go Sounders!
Such a crazy game to watch!! Wow, I was on my feet the whole game.. Sucks Seattle scored those 2 goals late, defense absolutely has to lock down in the final minutes but all in all both teams looked like top tier mls teams.. RCTID!!!
Was listening to this game and damn it was exciting. I wish I had been close to a television to see it! This rivalry is intense and as a Sounders fan I can say that the draw was very well deserved for both team. MLS is getting more momentum and I'm glad to see the amount of talent coming out of all these US teams. Yedlin and Dempsey were amazing today!
This is a good point, but I don't think his 1v1 defending was the problem. They were overloading his side, he was getting caught in 2v1 situations a lot
As a Brit, I don't really understand the hate that the MLS gets from European fans. Surely the growth of football/soccer in USA can only benefit the sport as a whole. The salary cap means clubs spend more on attack than defence, and in this match the goalkeeping and defending was very poor at times, but that only adds to the excitement.
Miki Turner There's no excuse for Andrew Weber, Ricketts out? Timbers don't have an Attinella to back 'em up...This game would've been totally different with Gspurning and Ricketts going head to head again!
imaratspal No you mean a spanish announcer so they'll make things more exciting every time someone score. "GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLL! GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLL!! GOAL! GOAL! GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLL!!! lol!
I did not get to watch this, I was tailgating for the Orlando City game. These highlight gave me chills though. Love what we will eventually have against Miami and Atlanta
You know Dempsey was not in the top 10 candidates to be predicted MVP for 2014 but know he has 4 goals and 2 assists in 210 min (2 starts one sub) but now I think him and martins can have a chance of being better or as good as keane and Donavan. Also portland have not won a game yet. Sounders support>Mls. Go sounders. ECS.
John Strong is such a beast of a commentator. Which makes you wonder why teams like Colorado and Kansas City bring over 4th rate English accents to make the game sound boring for everyone watching.
I honestly feel that Dempsey is one of the GREATEST if not the best player on the planet today. He belongs in the ranks of Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar, Riberry and maybe even Pepe to name a few. Dempsey can always find the balls.
WTF! What are you on? I want some. You are insane, Dempsey's name should not be mentioned in the same paragraph with Messi, Ronaldo, or like 50 other players lol.
"Dempsey can always find the balls" Dempsey was just suspended for sack tapping another player about two weeks ago. I'm guessing the first part of his comment was just troll bait for that punchline. It was subtle, and I LOL'd. If that was his intention 8/10. If not, maybe he is just a fool. Who knows.
Game of the year, maybe best game in league history, though I would have liked to see 3 points Timbers got close at 6:30 and 10:00, Sounders are extremely lucky to get a point. I'm pumped for August 24!

Love seeing how MLS is growing! The stands are full with enthusiastic fans...love it!
Portland and Seattle are always like that. Go to other stadiums in the mls and they are almost as empty as they were 10 years ago
Yep don't listen to Bradyn Sporting Kc, Real Salt Lake, Philadelphia Union, Vancouver Whitecaps, New York Red Bulls, New England Revolution, Chicago Fire all have great support

Wanted to say thank you to the Timbers army for putting a rivalry aside, and helping raise money for the victims in Oso.
this highlight video shows the quality of MLS now, what a game!
Some of the quality of goals this year in MLS are amazing. Great season so far.
I guess HD didn't exist in 2014
Best rivalry of the Mls.
This was the first MLS game I had watched live. Great game!
Me too man. I was 11 years old. Time flies
MLS CLASICO ROCKS.RESPECT FROM MEXICO LETS GO PORTLAND
Love hearing John Strong calling the Timbers game again.
I watched the whole game and I can remember at least 4 VERY clear chances on goal that aren't shown in this video, and I'm sure there were some others too.
Yes, I know that they should have made a 20 minutes video, but believe me, the game was even better than what you see in these highlights.
I was on the edge of my seat the whole time, can't wait for the California Classico, that's rocked two years running!!!
I miss watching MLS on NBCSN
Any chance MLS can upload these in HD?
Man, Portland's fans are crazy! Love it!
Part of the noise was actually Sounders fans. On the last two goals from the Sounders you can clearly hear the Sounders drums and the Emerald City Supporters chanting "Take 'em All"
Maxwell Heimdal Yeah, maybe if they are using a microphone + speakers
The game that cemented Clint Dempsey as a Seattle sounders legend 💚⚽️🐐
Great game. Great crowd. Was shown on TV in the UK and a lot of people have been raving about how good the crowd was. And rightly so!
Timbers crowd was good, but how about those away Sounders fans? We were drowning out Portland at times in the second half, you could hear on tv!
77atatme Yes mate. Especially the last ten minutes with that "Seattle Sounders Ole, na na na na na na" :D Love how MLS has kept the segregation, so you have an away "end" at some games because travelling support all tend to be up for it.

Man did I miss out on a great second half. Glad to see Dempsey is getting back to his goalscoring self; we're gonna need that for the WC.
Timbers gave one of the best if not the best fan base in the MLS.
and same with ecs
yankeeluver100 as a season ticket member of the sounders, I respectfully disagree
The game where Clint Dempsey became a Seattle legend
Hands down, this is the best rivalry in the MLS.
Eight months since this match...and it's still my pick for MLS match of the year.
Such a good game!
Such a crazy game to watch!! Wow, I was on my feet the whole game.. Sucks Seattle scored those 2 goals late, defense absolutely has to lock down in the final minutes but all in all both teams looked like top tier mls teams.. RCTID!!!
Clint is looking like his old self again just in time for the world cup.
if only he could have started looking like his old self again while he was on loan with Fulham
been waiting for this highlights.
How the hell are we supposed to choose a goal of the week after this game?
Damn the MLS is growing like grass, it's becoming a great league!
Aaron Eriksonn Since we are talking about Oregon and Washington state I think it's growing more like weed ;-)
Never knew MLS was that good! Calcio fan.

Great game. Also kudos to Strong and Martino for calling the broadcast very well.
What a game. Best rivalry in MLS even though I hate Seattle
Hero of the game has to be Yedlin.
He saves a goal & creates a play for the PK.
He may have saved the sounders, however his side was burned the entire game.
Max is right, they kind of exploited DeAndre. He got kind of exposed, many times. Anibaba had a rough game too
This is a good point, but I don't think his 1v1 defending was the problem. They were overloading his side, he was getting caught in 2v1 situations a lot
Amazing, classic game
Kickass classic Cascadia Rivalry! Worth the friggin' money!
What a great game, a definite classic for mls
What a fucking game... Hats off to the MLS.
HOW IS THIS NOT IN HD?!
I see sunday league has gotten much more glamorous than 10 years ago.
As an RSL fan on vacation in PDX, I still cannot believe I went to such a great game.
Great game. Wish this rivalry was televised on public tv tho.
Please start doing these highlights in HD, is there a reason why they don't?
This is an instant classic...... and yet I'm still watching this video in 480p.....
As a Brit, I don't really understand the hate that the MLS gets from European fans. Surely the growth of football/soccer in USA can only benefit the sport as a whole. The salary cap means clubs spend more on attack than defence, and in this match the goalkeeping and defending was very poor at times, but that only adds to the excitement.
I wouldn't even put it on the goalkeeping. Defense hung the keepers out to dry.
Agreed, the more good leagues we have around the globe, the better.
Miki Turner There's no excuse for Andrew Weber, Ricketts out? Timbers don't have an Attinella to back 'em up...This game would've been totally different with Gspurning and Ricketts going head to head again!
@@olennianesterova8627 You low key predicted the future...
amazing match,mls is in the good way,great crowds,the quality of players is increasing,only referees and commentators have to improve
Yes lets just give every team a british announcer so it sounds more proper (sarcasm)
thanks for your sarcasm,but is true,comentators doesn´t know shit about football and referes too
imaratspal No you mean a spanish announcer so they'll make things more exciting every time someone score. "GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLL! GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLL!! GOAL! GOAL! GOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLL!!! lol!
south american announcers are the best,those guys are fuckin crazy
Refs maybe but I thought that these commentators were good.
Most exciting game of the season.
Union fan
crazy game man.
Great atmosphere here!
What a game! What a rivalry.
what a great game
I did not get to watch this, I was tailgating for the Orlando City game. These highlight gave me chills though. Love what we will eventually have against Miami and Atlanta
Whoever Beckham brings vs Kaka...sign me up!
WOW
The Cascadia Cup never disappoints!
Not a bad match at all. Liverpool fan from England
Really wanted a Portland win, they really looked to have deserved it with some great goals and chances (Nagbe hitting the post and the corner)
A draw was deserved in my opinion, they both missed very good chances and some chances were unlucky.
What an amazing game!!!!!
Best game of the season so far!! And it was so jam packed that this highlight video could easily be another 5-10 minutes long & still be interesting.
You know Dempsey was not in the top 10 candidates to be predicted MVP for 2014 but know he has 4 goals and 2 assists in 210 min (2 starts one sub) but now I think him and martins can have a chance of being better or as good as keane and Donavan.

Cascadian Classic, right? love those full stands.. long live the Clásicos!! PD is there another classic in MLS similar to this one?
We WON the MLS CUP!!!!!!!
There was 5 or 6 yellow cards in the game but they don't show them all.
It's perfect match, audiance, player performance.
Great match. Dempsey had a good game.
Now TA can keep quiet about Dempseys scoring capabilities. How does a hat trick feel?
Probably the best game of the season.
Amazing game
Wow what a performance!!!
I honestly feel that Dempsey is one of the GREATEST if not the best player on the planet today. He belongs in the ranks of Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar, Riberry and maybe even Pepe to name a few. Dempsey can always find the balls.
He's good, but not that good
WTF! What are you on? I want some. You are insane, Dempsey's name should not be mentioned in the same paragraph with Messi, Ronaldo, or like 50 other players lol.
R0bDC You completely missed the joke...
relent42 What joke? The comment seem sincere, i guess no one told him you cant see sarcasm over the internet.
"Dempsey can always find the balls" Dempsey was just suspended for sack tapping another player about two weeks ago. I'm guessing the first part of his comment was just troll bait for that punchline.

Best rivalry in MLS
What a superb game!
You should find in youtube: Boca Vs River 2004!!! fantastic game!!
Legendary game for Diego Chara.
Game of the year, maybe best game in league history, though I would have liked to see 3 points Timbers got close at 6:30 and 10:00, Sounders are extremely lucky to get a point. I'm pumped for August 24!
I will make time to watch this rivalry the next time it's on
The Portland-Seattle Derby somewhat similar to North London derby?
some beautiful goals in this match :D
Clint Dempseeyyy!!
the american clasico
What a game.
Great game by Portland and Seattle
and to MLS: is 2014, you know? you can use HD nowadays
Best game to watch
An inform Dempsey in Fifa 14?
Exciting Game!!!!
Now this is the timbers I want to see! Scoring 4 goals! Why did Clint Dempsey hug Andrew Weber ?
Weber tossed the ball onto the top of the goal as Dempsey was about to recover it to waste time. Dempsey obviously was amused by the stalling tactic.
Weber was a former teammate of Dempsey's
Great match right here
what a game!
And wow, Urruti! That was our guy last year :(
Damn. Great fans.
And they had to travel too!
Woooow, great game!
Class goals
Woow what a game.
Sounders need Gspurning or a better keeper in general in order to go all the way this year. They have all the other pieces.
Henry Slater That game against the Revs proved your point. (and I know that feel giving up 5 to them lol)
Y Marco Pappa??
going to the home game in seattle on july 13th!!!! :D
What's going on there at 5:43?
instant classic
Sounder for life
FUCK. i cant believe i didnt watch this game
