4 PREVIOUS MATCH - PORTLAND TIMBERS AT LA GALAXY (W 1-0) MATCH RECAP The Portland Timbers secured their first away win of the season, defeating the LA Galaxy 1-0 before 20,982 fans at the StubHub Center on March 12. Portland s win against the Galaxy marks its strongest start to a season in the club s MLS era, with the Timbers picking up six points through their first two regular-season games. Scoring his first MLS regular-season goal since Oct. 18, 2015, midfielder Diego Chara finished early in the first half for Portland, with midfielder Diego Valeri recording his second assist of the season, as the Timbers went on to win their opening away match for the first time in their MLS era. Attacking quickly on the counter attack, Portland (2-0-0, 6pts) opened the scoring in the eighth minute when a long, searching ball from midfielder Sebastián Blanco found Chara in space inside the Galaxy s half. Running onto Blanco s pass, Chara headed the ball inside the box to midfielder Diego Valeri, who played a first-time pass back to Chara for a close-range finish, with the Timbers scoring just 17 seconds after the Galaxy s corner kick on the other end of the field. Following a second yellow card for defender Jelle Van Damme in the 34th minute of play, reducing the Galaxy (0-2-0, 0pts) to 10 men, Portland continued to create goalscoring opportunities, producing 14 overall shots and six shots on target throughout the match. With 20 minutes remaining in the game, Portland created two clear-cut chances to extend its lead, with Valeri and forward Fanendo Adi each coming close to finding the back of the net. In the 70th minute, Nagbe s pass released defender Marco Farfan, who became the youngest player to feature for Portland in an MLS match by starting and playing 90 minutes against the Galaxy, with the defender finding Valeri for a wellstruck attempt that forced a strong save from LA goalkeeper Clement Diop. BOX SCORE Portland Timbers (2-0-0, 6pts) vs. LA Galaxy (0-2-0, 0pts) March 12, 2017 StubHub Center (Carson, Calif.) Goals by Half 1 2 F Portland Timbers LA Galaxy Scoring Summary: POR: Chara (Valeri), 8 VS. Lineups & Stats: POR: GK Gleeson, D Powell, D Olum, D Miller, D Farfan, M Guzmán (Zemanski, 38), M Chara, M Blanco (Asprilla, 88), M Valeri (Mattocks, 84), M Nagbe, F Adi Substitutes Not Used: GK Attinella, D Myers, D Okugo, M Barmby TOTAL SHOTS: 14 (Three players tied, 3); SHOTS ON GOAL: 6 (Chara, 2); FOULS: 15 (Powell, Adi, 3); OFFSIDES: 4; CORNER KICKS: 5; SAVES: 2 One minute later, Adi picked up the ball inside the center circle in Portland s half, before powering his way into the Galaxy s 18-yard box. Taking a touch past Diop, Adi managed to cut past midfielder Sebastian Lletget, but a last-ditch tackle from defender Rafael Garcia prevented the scoring opportunity. Portland goalkeeper Jake Gleeson was only forced to make two saves in the contest, including a strong right-handed parry deep in stoppage time in the 94th minute to preserve Portland s first shutout of the season. NOTES The Timbers held the lead for 82 minutes, marking the largest length the club has ever held a lead in an away MLS match. The victory against the Galaxy marked Portland s first win in a road opener since joining MLS in The Timbers have won consecutive matches to open the season for the first time since the 2008 season when the club played in USL. After two weeks of matches, the Timbers have the highest Goal Difference in MLS (+5). Marco Farfan became the youngest Timbers player to play an MLS match at 18 years old and 120 days. The record was previously held by Alvas Powell, who was 19 years old and 16 days when he made his debut for Portland. Diego Chara scored his seventh career goal for the Timbers. Chara s last goal was also against the LA Galaxy at the StubHub Center, occurring on Oct. 18, Diego Valeri tallied an assist for a second consecutive match, marking the 13th time in Valeri s career that he has had an assist in consecutive matches. Valeri has recorded 44 career assists for Portland, which ranks tied as the thirdmost assists in Timbers history across all eras (since 1975). Roy Miller also made his debut for the Timbers, starting and playing 90 minutes. Farfan had the most tackles for either team in the match (5). With his start and appearance, Farfan became the first Timbers academy player to make his MLS debut with the first team. QUOTES Portland Timbers head coach Caleb Porter On winning the first road game It s not always about being pretty. It s about winning, and on the road, especially, you have to dig deep to win games. I thought our guys did that. We had some new guys in the lineup, some injuries to manage this week. Marco Farfan makes his debut at 18 years old and looked like he fits right in. Roy Miller steps in with only a couple of days with the team. Ben Zemanski has to come into the game before half. So, these are things that you need out of a team and these are things that you need to do to win games. You need to grind, you need to stick together and you need guys to come up with big plays like Jake (Gleeson) did at the end of the game, making that save. Obviously there are things to improve on like every game win, lose or draw. We re going to look at that. Obviously, we should ve put the game to bed a lot sooner and then it would ve been, more pretty. Portland Timbers defender Marco Farfan On his MLS debut It s a dream come true. I don t think a kid can dream something better than this debuting, playing 90 minutes and getting a clean sheet with the guys out there. It was just fantastic. Portland Timbers midfielder Diego Chara On scoring against the Galaxy... I feel great. I think that the goal was a great team play. I think we created a lot of chances on goal today.
