Reserve match begins at 2pm PST at Jeld Wen Field and is being "webcast" (that is a word, right?) on the Portland Timbers website or you can connect here. Portland has a reputation for getting fans (sometimes as many as 10,000) to pay the $10 for reserve game tickets. Chivas USA is first place in the reserves division.
Should be a very exciting game! Both sides have a lot of athletic players who can get up and down the field. The wingers Portland is putting out--Zizzo and Alhassan--are fast but known for being particularly interested in playing defense. A few trialists in both camps whose names I'm not familiar with (i.e. I don't know what they are to write them down, sorry!)
