What a week for Sporting Kansas City.

After lifting the Open Cup trophy at PPL Park on Wednesday, the team had to travel Portland and take on the Timbers in a huge match.

They came away with all three points thanks to an outstanding performance from Tim Melia and some solid work from captain Matt Besler.

The win put Sporting safely above the red line, and they are on their way to securing a fifth straight playoff berth.
