The 2013 Major League Soccer Season began last weekend, with Los Angeles Galaxy picking up where they left off in December.
A first career hat-trick from Mike Magee was added to by Robbie Keane as the Mls Champions cruised to a 4-0 victory over Chicago Fire. Former Chelsea and Tottenham goalkeeper Carlo Cudicini made a shaky start to his league debut, almost gifting Chicago an easy goal when he failed to clear the ball properly early in the match. After that it was all Galaxy, with Magee netting his first half opener thanks to a slight deflection that took it away from goalkeeper Sean Johnson. His second was a curled effort from the edge of the box; his third a brilliant volley amid chaos following a long throw into the penalty area. Keane scored a late fourth when Omar Gonzalez nodded Michael Stephens’ cross down for him to poke home at the near post.

Portland Timbers came out victorious in their quest for their third Cascadia Cup in their history on Sunday evening, an away tie to the Vancouver Whitecaps at BC place was all that stood in their way. In an evenly matched battle, a 25-yard screamer into the top right-hand corner by Jack Jewsbury in the 39th minute proved to be the decisive factor. Remarkably, it was the first away win of the season for Portland and it couldn’t have come at a better time, it was also their last away tie of the entire season.
It has been a tough old slog for the loyal Timbers Army, who perhaps have the noisiest fans in the Mls, as they have had to bare witness to a record of 8-16-9 this season, placing Portland in 9th, one place above Chivas USA in the Western Conference, being part of the play-off contention...
