Here are Colin's Keys to take one step closer to the Cascadia Cup.

Energy

It's a short turnaround from the Canadian Championship.

We know the Timbers are high energy, and they have quality. We need to match that energy right away.

Wednesday is history.

Possession

We need to get back to basics in possession.

We're lacked patience and quality at times recently.

This will need to improve.

Home sweet home

Four out of the last five games are at BC Place.

It's a huge opportunity to finish the season strong.

Our crowd need to continue to do their part and get right behind the three-peat Canadian Champions.
