If the all-time CONCACAF Champions League trophies leader Club América is Goliath, the Portland Timbers couldn’t find their slingshot.
The Timbers fell 3-1 in the second leg of the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals Wednesday in Mexico City for a 4-2 aggregate loss, knocking them out of the tournament. The quarterfinal finish was the Timbers’ best ever in the prestigious competition, and now the Philadelphia Union remain as the only MLS team to reach this year’s semifinals.
