Two red cards against Portland threatened to derail its home opener against their fiercest rival, but the Thorns fought back and posted a 2-0 victory against the Seattle Reign despite being shorthanded for most of the match.

The community is hereby closed for the weekend on account of the mods being Reign fans:

In her home debut as a Thorn, 20-year-old midfielder Cassandra Bogere earned two quick yellow cards in the 8th and 9th minutes to be sent off and temporarily deflate a Providence Park crowd of 21,321, the largest for a home opener in team history. On both fouls, Bogere appeared to grab the arm of a Seattle player and pull them toward the turf.
