San Diego FC fell to the Portland Timbers in a penalty shootout Saturday night, 3-2, after a 2-2 draw in regular time.
Why it matters: Losing Game 2 in this first-round series of the MLS playoffs means SDFC will host Portland in a do-or-die matchup next weekend.
State of play: Forwards Amahl Pellegrino and Chucky Lozano scored to put SDFC up 2-1, but the team gave up a goal in stoppage time, which sent the game to penalty kicks.
Anders Dreyer and Lozano converted their PKs and goalkeeper Pablo Sisniega made two saves, but SDFC's next three shooters missed.
Sisniega replaced starter CJ dos Santos, who was carted off the field after getting kicked in the head in the first half.
