The Portland Timbers had to wait months longer than the rest of MLS to have their 2019 home opener, but they pulled out all the stops in their first home game of the season on Saturday, when they hosted LAFC.
Unveiling the newly-renovated Providence Park — including 4,000 additional seats in three tiers — in front of a national television audience on ESPN2, the Timbers Army raised their first tifo as the home team, a multi-panel display paying tribute to Providence Park as an "enchanted place."
