Marathon did it again. Again he stayed on the path to the CONCACAF Champions and did so in an ugly way: thrashed and crushed, now by the Portland Timbers of the MLS that gave him a painful 5-0 at home by a global beating of 7-2.
The first minutes looked like they were going to give the fight, they had some clear, but these teams on their court, with their speed, touch and good technique, can not compete. Two clear arrivals on the left side of Luis Vega with races from the Colombian Asprilla, opened the tap for the lumberjacks.
Review: THE MINUTE BY MINUTE OF THE PORTLAND PALLISSA in Marathon
Colombian Yimmi Chara turned into a nightmare, made a treble that got on his knees and stripped away the shortcomings of the green that what he presented at the Olympics last Tuesday was fortune. The marked differences were evidenced in Portland and now that the failure is consummated only these statistics remain with numbers that weigh.
In the second half the Portland team came out determined to show their fangs. The woodcutter had his chainsaw on and early in the 66th minute Diego Valeri’s third goal came. A combination with Van Rankin ended in Denovan’s bow.
I will see. The memes THAT LEFT THE DEFEAT of Marathon IN CONCACAF
Later the goalkeeper of the greens continued to give spaces and at 79, chara scored the third after a rebound from the guard and here everything deflated. The beating was about to fall, but a fifth is missing. The tic Marvin Loría made a run in the 89th minute and before the goalkeeper’s departure, he beat him with a falling shot.
Héctor Vargas in the second half took out the players who were in danger such as Bryan Castell who ended up injured and Marlon “Machuca” Ramírez and brought in Kevin Hoyos and Ryduan Palermos who were nothing more than tourism in the game, as they did not lead a single play of danger to 45 minutes of game.
For Marató, these presentations in CONCACAF should serve as a reflection because their name has been degraded; in the 2018-2019 edition they were eliminated 11-2 by Santos Laguna and now be a 7-2 by Portland. Now they have to come to focus on qualifying in the local tournament where they are last in Group A.
