MLS CUP PLAYOFFS: First meeting.

Real won a playoff game for the first time since the 3-0 win against Seattle in the first leg of their 2011 conference semifinal, ending a five-game playoff winless run (0-4-1). "I think the crowd did an unbelievable job, they just keep spurring us on and spurring us on," said RSL head coach Jason Kreis. "Interesting right? The two guys that scored tonight, I believe it was their first goals of the season, Sebastian’s first goal of his career. This was a playoff series of guys that don’t normally score goals scoring the goals.” ... Real did not lose to Portland in 2013. RSL won one of the three league meetings, with two draws, scoring seven goals. Real also won 2-1 in a U.S. Open Cup semifinal at Rio Tinto Stadium. "It will be another two games that we’re going to have to give another great effort like we did tonight," said Kyle Beckerman. "Nothing comes easily in the playoffs, but it’s something we look forward to. They’re a good team, we’re a good team and we just like to go against the best.” ... Sebastian Velasquez scored his first professional goal with his first-half header sent Real on their way against the Galaxy. "He is an extremely hungry player that has some real gifts," Kreis said. "It’s sometimes difficult to get some of those gifts to come out of him. But tonight I think he took a major step forward." ... Chris Schuler netted his first career playoff goal to seal the series. Schuler has started the last six RSL matches in league and cup play, after missing more than four months through injury. "A number of balls he stepped in front of from Donovan and Keane today. He made physical challenges and completed the first pass. All those little things were huge for us," Kreis said. "Once again this game I walk away from it and I say ‘I’m really happy that Chris Schuler scored the game winning goal because he deserved it.'” ... There are injury concerns for RSL ahead of the conference final first leg. Ned Grabavoy missed the Galaxy match with a hamstring injury, and Alvaro Saborio could not finish the match Thursday evening. "It wasn’t due to fatigue, it was due to a muscle pull," said Kreis. "But we’ve been there before haven’t we? I think back to the Open Cup match when we went into overtime I think we were playing down a man and for some moments in that game, and in the playoff we were down two men."

The Timbers scored five goals in their conference semifinal win against Seattle -- the most scored by any club in a two-leg series in the MLS Cup Playoffs since 2003. Portland scored five goals against RSL in three league meetings this season. "I thought our combination play at times, our ability to control the game with possession at times, our ruthlessness getting to goal was very good," said Timbers head coach Caleb Porter. "We should’ve had more goals. The coach in me is going to look at the tape and say we should’ve scored five, six goals." ... The Timbers were the only club to win both legs of their semifinal series, the first team to do it since Houston and Kansas City did in 2011. Portland is now unbeaten in its last 10 league and cup games. "It means that we’re three games away and we have two teams in our way," Porter said. "... We’ll keep taking it one at a time, but we’re getting closer. This team genuinely believes that we have a realistic shot at this. It means a lot, but we’re not going to think about what it means until, hopefully, the end.” ... The Timbers had not allowed a goal at Jeld-Wen Field since Aug. 21 -- more than 520 minutes in league and cup play -- before Sounders FC hit for two in two minutes late in the second leg. "It’s a reminder that if you let your guard down in this sport you’ll get punched in the nose. We were clearly in control of that game ... For me, it was probably a good thing because it’s a wakeup call and it keeps us grounded. We don’t leave this game feeling invincible, bulletproof at 3-0." ... Will Johnson scored his first career MLS Cup Playoffs goal in his 16th postseason match in opening the scoring from the penalty spot in the second leg. Johnson played every playoff game for RSL from 2008-12. ... The Timbers have defeated Real once in nine meetings all-time in all competitions – a 1-0 win in the first encounter between the clubs, April 30, 2011 in Portland. “For me, the record in the playoffs is even. We’ve never played them in the playoffs so I think it’s a totally different game," Will Johnson said. "Whatever the regular-season statistics are, they are what they are, but this is the playoffs now so it’s a brand new slate.”

PORTLAND TIMBERS v REAL SALT LAKE – 2013 LEAGUE BOXSCORES PORTLAND TIMBERS 3, REAL SALT LAKE 3 August 21, 2013 -- Jeld-Wen Field Scoring Summary: POR--Wallace 5 (Valeri 11) 24 RSL--Borchers 1 (unassisted) 38 RSL--Morales 6 (penalty kick) 43 POR--Valeri 5 (penalty kick) 57 POR--Alhassan 1 (unassisted) 86 RSL--Grossman 1 (unassisted) 93+ • Portland struck first in the 24th minute when Diego Valeri picked out Rodney Wallace at the top of the six on a free kick from the left, and Wallace sent a clinical header past goalkeeper Jeff Attinella. • But RSL found the equalizer in the 38th minute after a Javier Morales cross found Joao Plata in the box. Plata saw his shot stopped by Portland ‘keeper Donovan Ricketts, but Nat Borchers was on the spot to tap home the rebound from close range. • Real pulled ahead just before halftime when Morales got tangled up with Portland defender Andrew Jean-Baptiste, leading referee Ricardo Salazar to point to the spot, where Morales easily converted. But the Timbers pulled level in the 56th minute after defender Brandon McDonald was called for a handball in the box, and Diego Valeri calmly converted the spot kick. • With 11 minutes to play, RSL went a man down when Yordany Alvarez saw a straight red card for a hard tackle on Diego Chara. The Timbers took advantage four minutes from the end when a cross from the left fell right to the feet of Kalif Alhassan off an RSL defender, and he blasted home from 12 yards out. • Yet Real had one final answer. A low pass from the right flank was cleared by Jean-Baptiste -- but only as far as Cole Grossman, and he stroked home a low shot inside the right post from the edge of the box. PORTLAND TIMBERS (4-2-1-3): Donovan Ricketts - Alvas Powell, Pa Modou Kah, Andrew Jean-Baptiste, Michael Harrington - Diego Chara, Ben Zemanski - Diego Valeri (Ryan Miller 88) - Darlington Nagbe (Kalif Alhassan 78), Ryan Johnson (Jose Adolfo Valencia 63), Rodney Wallace.

REAL SALT LAKE 4, PORTLAND TIMBERS 2 August 30, 2013 -- Rio Tinto Stadium Scoring Summary: RSL--Gil 5 (Plata 7, Beckerman 5) 9 RSL--Plata 3 (Grabavoy 5) 15 POR--Nagbe 8 (Harrington 1) 31 RSL--Morales 7 (Plata 8) 55 RSL--Saborio 10 (Morales 10) 67 POR--Zizzo 1 (unassisted) 78 • Real were two goals ahead before the match was fully a quarter-hour old. In the ninth minute, a crisp passing sequence led to the opener, with Joao Plata one-timing a pass through the right side of the box to Luis Gil who clinically finished inside the far post. Six minutes later
it was Plata who raced past a defender and hammered a left-footed shot past 'keeper Donovan Ricketts, off the far post, and into the net. • The Timbers pulled a goal back in the 31st minute after Michael Harrington set off on a storming, 50-yard run up the field before laying off to Darlington Nagbe, who scorched a low shot from distance. • In first-half stoppage time, Timbers midfielder Ben Zemanski saw a straight red after a high challenge on Ned Grabavoy. • RSL took advantage with two goals by the three-quarter mark. It was piece of brillance from Morales in the 55th minute, twisting his body to hit a bicycle kick from a corner kick that flew back across the goal and bounced in off the post. Alvaro Saborio then flicked home a free kick from Morales to make the score 4-1. • Sal Zizzo provided the final scoreline when he knocked home a rebound in the area from a Rimando save.

GALAXY REWIND :: ROARING BACK AT RIOT:
RSL returned to Rio Tinto Stadium Thursday seeking to reverse an 0-1 deficit in the LA semifinal series, riding goals from two unlikely sources - MF Sebastian Velasquez, whose 35’ header was his first as a professional - and DF Chris Schuler, whose 97’ series-winner was his firstever Playoff goal - as RSL improved to 3-1-1 in 2013 when returning back to Utah after a road loss ... The Velasquez goal gave RSL its first-ever lead during any of the previous home elimination games it had faced in recent years, while the Schuler goal in OT1 made up for the disallowed Javier Morales free kick in the 84’ ...

SUNDAY FUNDAY:
Sunday’s West Final Leg One marks RSL’s first-ever Sunday home game in its 9-year, 350-game history across MLS regular-season, Playoff, CONCACAF Champions League, Open Cup and exhibition history ...
HOME DEMONS EXORCISED?:
Thursday’s emotional win marked a significant breakthrough for RSL to capture a series-clinching win at home, cutting loose the albatross of no fewer than six previous losses in playoff series 2nd legs or Cup finals at Rio Tinto Stadium ... This year’s October 1st 0-1 loss in the 100th LHUSOC Final was eerily reminiscent of 0-1 home losses in the 2008 West Final and the 2011 CONCACAF Champions League Final, Jason Kreis’ club unable to overcome late first-half goals despite dominating possession, hitting posts and dictating tempo ... The breakthrough against the two-time defending MLS Cup champions came in RSL’s 14th HOME elimination game in the club’s five-year history at Rio Tinto Stadium, advancing only once each in CONCACAF Champions League and Open Cup annals (prior to 2013) ... RSL had failed to win in 3 prior MLS Cup Playoff elimination games at home ... Excluding the 4 early-round games in this year’s Open Cup run, RSL now has a 3-5-2 home record in elimination games ...

RSL ATTACK REBOUNDS v LA:
2ND LEGS AWAY, ON THE OTHER HAND ... :
Prior to Thursday’s 120-minute affair, RSL had scored only 4 goals in its last 8 games across all comps since Sept. 1, suffering 5 shutouts and the only multi-goal game coming in the 2013 season finale at home against Chivas ... RSL’s West-leading 57-goal attack went missing in Sept. / Oct., scoring just four goals and posting a 2-3-2 record since the 4-2 home win over Portland back on August 30 ...
DATE OPP. RESULT COMPETITION: 11/08/08 @ CHV T 2-2* West Conf SemiFinal 11/05/09 @ CLB W 3-2* East Conf SemiFinal 11/14/09 @ CHI T, 0-0* East Conf FInal 11/22/09 v LA T, 1-1* MLS Cup 2009 (@ Seattle) 04/05/11 @ SAP L, 1-2* CCL SemiFinal 11/03/11 @ LA L 1-3 West Conf Final 11/02/12 @ SEA L, 0-2* West Conf SemiFinal *result advanced RSL to victory
That critical game marked the fourth consecutive match (across all competitions) that RSL had reached the 2+ goal threshold, as well as in five of six matches, 8 of 10 and 19 of its last 23 matches dating from May 1 - Sept. 1 ...
RSL’s current streak of 6 consecutive MLS Cup Playoff berths is the longest active run of postseason competition, with only NE having a longer run of 8 consecutive years and NY 6 since 2000 ...
When 2nd-year MF Sebastian Velasquez headed home a Chris Wingert offering on Thursday night, that header from the 5’-5” playmaker snapped RSL’s playoff scoreless streak at 370 minutes, dating back to Grabavoy’s serieswinner v SEA back in 2011 Semi Leg One ...
Since losing at home on April 27 to Los Angeles (0-2), RSL had posted a 15-4-4 record across league and Open Cup play during a red-hot Summer ... In that span, RSL outscored opponents 57-31 ... The August 30th 4-2 win over Portland and the team’s 4-0 win over Columbus on Aug. 24 mark the first time in RSL history that the team has scored 4+ goals in consecutive regular-season matches ...
RARE STRUGGLES AT RIO TINTO STADIUM:
Prior to that Chivas win to close out the season, RSL was winless in its prior three games at Rio Tinto Stadium, dropping one-goal games at home to San Jose (Sept. 21, 1-2 loss) and D.C. United (Oct. 1, 0-1 loss in Open Cup Final) before earning a 1-1 draw v Dallas on Oct. 5 in a game that saw RSL play with only 10 men for the final 75 minutes ... RSL had a pair of 3-game winless streaks at home a year ago, the most damaging being the late-season run that saw a 0-0 home draw knock the club from its CONCACAF group, a harmless 0-0 draw against Vancouver to close the regular season and the 0-1 playoff loss to Seattle ... While the Open Cup Final loss at home this season was the club’s 4th in all competitions, Jason Kreis’ team now owns a 15-4-4 mark (46/22 GF/GA), RSL still boasting a 75-16-23 mark in its last 114 home games dating back to the beginning of 2008, Kreis’ first full season ... In that span, RSL has outscored opponents by 133 goals (216-83), with a 59-12-25 reg. season mark (176/67), 6-1-1 CCL record (17/5), 4-1-1 playoffs (7/2), 5-2-0 Open Cup (16/9) and 2-0-1 int’l exhibition (5/2) ... All-time, RSL is now 74-32-38 in MLS regular-season play during 9 seasons at home, outscoring opponents 236-140 ...
On the road or at a neutral site, RSL has actually fared much better in “elimination” games advancing on PKs twice and on aggregate the other four occasions, the only road disappointment coming in the 2011 West Final at LA:
LONGEST ACTIVE POSTSEASON STREAK:
Only the triumvirate of Western elite RSL, Seattle and Los Angeles have advanced to Playoffs each of the last five seasons ...
RAREFIED AIR OF SUSTAINED SUCCESS:
The Sept. 29 win @ VAN put RSL at both the 15-win and 50-point plateaus for the FOURTH consecutive season, something no MLS club had accomplished in the postshootout era (LA Galaxy 2010-13 joined RSL with a lateseason win over Montreal) ... D.C. United’s 2005/06/07 teams, as well as Los Angeles Galaxy 2010/11/12 joined RSL 2010-12 as the only teams to have put together three straight 15-win / 50-point seasons ...
HOW DOES 2013 COMPARE?:
A year ago, RSL set a new club record for wins in a season (with 17) and saw Jason Kreis’ team capture a franchisehigh 57 points, surpassing the 56 captured during the 2010 30-game season ... The team’s record points-pergame average of 1.87 set in 2010 was unassailable, while 2013 saw RSL establish a club mark for goals scored, 2nd only to NY in 2013 ...

FAMILIARITY BREEDING CONTEMPT?:
Sunday’s RSL v PDX match will be the clubs’ 5th meeting of the season - after seeing each other 3 times in 24 days back in August - and 2nd at JELD-WEN FIeld, RSL posting a 2-0-2 mark against the Timbers thus far in 2013 ... RSL won at home in the Open Cup Semifinal, 2-1, back on August 7 in a game that saw FW Alvaro Saborio score early and running mate Joao Plata late, prior to a 90’ Diego Valeri rebound ... Back on August 21, RSL burst out to a 2-1 halftime lead on goals from Nat Borchers and Javier Morales, but it was a shorthanded equalizer from substitute Cole Grossman in the 93rd minute that allowed RSL to rescue a road point at Jeld-Wen in an intense 3-3 draw that saw Timbers captain Will Johnson and RSL internationals Kyle Beckerman, Nick Rimando and Saborio out of action ... At Rio Tinto Stadium on August 30, RSL took an early 2-0 lead before Nagbe brilliance cut the advantage in half, but a Zemanski red just before half enabled RSL to see 4 different players score in a dominant 4-2 home win, RSL paced by Plata’s goal and 2 assists ... In that game, RSL saw four goals by four different players in the 4-2 home win (Gil, Plata, Morales & Saborio), the 2nd time this season that has happened (5-2 home win over Charleston in U.S. Open Cup play - Plata, Morales, Sandoval & Stephenson) ... RSL saw 4 different players score in the same game three times in the 2010 season, including Sept. 15, 2010, in a 4-1 home CCL win over Toronto (Saborio, Beckerman, Olave & Paulo Junior) ... Back in April, 2009, RSL saw 6 different players score in the 2nd half of a 6-0 home win over NE, in the most prolific and diverse scoring period in club history ... This playoff series will bolster the burgeoning rivalry, as the 5th/6th meetings of the season will set a new mark for RSL, which saw Seattle 5 times a year ago in regular / postseason play, and played Columbus 4 times in MLS / CONCACAF action in 2011 ...
FAMILIAR FACES ON THE WASATCH:
Back on August 7, prior to the Open Cup Semifinal, the return of former RSL culture-changer Will Johnson (2008-12) garnered all headlines, but another trio of Timbers once called Utah their MLS home ... FW Ryan Johnson (2006), DF David Horst (2008-10) and DF Rauwshan McKenzie (2010-11) now represent the Rose City ... Ryan Johnson was drafted by RSL back in 2006 out of Oregon State before being traded to Chicago Fire in exchange for DF Jack Stewart, while McKenzie was waived prior to the 2012 season and spent most of the last 18 months with Chivas USA ... Horst was claimed by Portland in the 2011 expansion draft by Portland, which also selected Robbie Findley before trading his rights back to RSL prior to this season ...

2012 REWIND: 3-GAME RSL SWEEP of PDX:
A year ago, RSL swept the MLS season series between the clubs, wrapping a pair of one-goal wins over Portland around a dominant 3-0 home win - courtesy of an Alvaro Saborio hat trick, at the time just the 3rd in club history ... That sweep and the Open Cup semi puts RSL at 4-1-4 all-time against PDX across all comps, RSL unbeaten in its last 8 games against the Timbers ... Only one other time in its now 286-game MLS history has RSL seen a 3-game / 9-point sweep, coming this season against Chivas USA ... RSL also went unbeaten in three games with a 2-0-1 mark against San Jose back in 2008 ... RSL also earned 7 points in 2007 against Colorado, but also saw a loss in the clubs’ 4 total meetings that year ... This year, RSL had a shot at winning all 3 games against SEA, SJ and CHV, but failed in the final game of each opportunity for 3-game sweeps against the Sounders and Earthquakes ...
MORE HISTORY vs TIMBERS:
Back in 2011, RSL failed to defeat the Timbers in either meeting, dropping an 0-1 decision in its first-ever visit to Oregon, a Kenny Cooper header just before halftime dooming RSL 72 hours following the CCL Final loss to Monterrey ... On the final day of 2011, just 72 hours after Portland was eliminated from postseason contention at DC, an 89’ Futty Danso goal salvaged a 1-1 draw for the Timbers at Rio Tinto Stadium ...
SABORIO THE BOSS OF PORTLAND:
RSL will surely miss the presence of FW Alvaro Saborio - the team’s all-time leading scorer with 66 goals in 114 games across all comps for the Claret/Cobalt Sunday due to a hip flexor injury suffered in the 110’ of Thursday’s match ... Sabo had regained form heading into the Playoffs, scoring his 8th goal in 15 2014 World Cup Qualifiers for his Costa Rican National Team, to go with 13 goals in 19 games (all comps) this season for RSL - the highest strike rate in MLS ... Saborio has 7 goals in 6 games all-time against the Timbers, scoring in each Rio Tinto Stadium meeting this year to go along with his hat trick last July in Utah ... Sabo also scored in Oct. 2011 at the RioT in a 1-1 draw, as well as tallying his lone Jeld-Wen Field score in the 3-2 RSL win in March 2012 ... Saborio scored a short-handed goal for RSL back on Oct. 5 at home v DAL in a return for the first time in over a month of MLS action since a left calf strain suffered during international duty with Costa Rica has caused him to miss RSL losses 9/13 @ SEA and 9/21 v SJ ... Despite playing in just 16 MLS games this season, Saborio had scored 12 goals for a league-leading strike rate of 0.83 per game ... Saborio also has 2 goals in 3 Open Cup games ...

RSL GK Nick Rimando made his 200th career MLS regular-season appearance for the Claret/Cobalt Oct. 19 in Portland, becoming the first player in the club’s nine seasons to reach the bicentennial mark ... Rimando also has 15 CONCACAF, 14 playoff and 3 US Open Cup appearances for the team, which acquired him from New York just prior to the 2007 season ...
Rimando’s win in the final regular-season match against Chivas gave the 2013 MLS GK of the Year candidate and everyone’s “homeboy” 85 RSL wins and a total of 72 clean sheets for the Utah side in reg. season play ... Thursday’s win over LA was Rimando’s 6th in 16 postseason matches for RSL, and also his 6th clean sheet for the Claret/Cobalt ...
CAPTAIN BECKERMAN 20th TO 300:
“KB5” is the seventh player in MLS history with RSL ties to hit 300+ appearances, joining the following as former/ current Claret-and-Cobalt players in the exclusive club (active members of the club in red): FW Jeff Cunningham (365) GK Nick Rimando (345) - RSL GK MF Chris Klein (333) MF Andy Williams (332) - RSL Head Scout MF Kyle Beckerman (324) - RSL Captain MF Carey Talley (315) FW Jason Kreis (305) - RSL Head Coach
WALL OF THE WASATCH NICKY RIMANDO:
RSL GK Nick Rimando preserved the 3 points on May 8 by denying a Saer Sene PK during stoppage time @NE, with a yellow card accompanying an apparent handball in the box inadvertently given to the wrong player (DF Carlos Salcedo), resulting in a sending off for the 19year old Academy product, who was cautioned for a high boot in the first half ... The saved PK was the 2nd in a span of 4 games for Rimando - he stopped Mejia in the first half of the April 20 1-0 win over Chivas ... Rimando, who extended his all-time MLS PK “denial” record to 19 career stops, has held opposing PK takers to just 41-for-60 against the former DC/MIA and current RSL netminder ... Overall, RSL ‘keepers have allowed opponents to convert only 26-of-37 attempts, with GK Nick Rimando - Major League Soccer’s most successful PK stopper - making 10 of the 11 all-time RSL stonings ... Former RSL GK Scott Garlick denied one attempt in 2006 (of the 2 he faced that season) ...
RSL has also used NINE different centerback pairings during its 37 MLS & Open Cup games this season, an astounding total considering the club’s 1.10 goals against average in MLS play this season ...

RSL (USUALLY) CELEBRATES IF SABO SCORES:
RSL’s all-time leading scorer, Costa Rican int’l FW Alvaro Saborio, has 11 goals in only 14 MLS appearances of the season ... After the hat trick @NY in late July, Sabo earned MLS Player of the Week accolades after missing extended periods of time due to World Cup Qualifying, Gold Cup and injuries ... Despite the heartbreak of the 3-4 loss at NY, RSL still owns a dominating 35-6-9 all-time record in all comps when Sabo scores ... The 4th-year MLS player joins Kreis (2005 Open Cup) and Robbie Findley (2009 MLS) as the lone “hat trick heroes” in RSL’s nine-year, 334-game history across all competitions ... In all comps, Sabo now owns a team-record 66 goals in 111 games, w/ 21 gamewinning goals and 15 multi-goal matches (17 and 20 in 93 MLS games) ... Prior to last year’s Aug. 18 1-2 L v DAL, the two most recent losses when Sabo finds the back of the net were against LA, June 20 of last year and also in the 2011 West Final at LA ... The only loss prior to 9/24/11 at DC was the rain-soaked 4-5 loss at Cruz Azul in Aug. 2011 ... RSL is only 19-28-17 when Sabo plays and does not score, but 17-8-6 when he is unavailable due to suspension, injury or national team duty since his arrival in 2010 …
TICO SABO NO LONGER PERFECT ON PKS ...
On April 6 @COL, RSL’s all-time leading scorer & Costa Rican international Alvaro Saborio saw his 8’ PK attempt saved by Rapids GK Clint Irwin, snapping Sabo’s 12-for-12 streak of perfection from the spot ... In an RSL uniform, Sabo is now 11-for-12 in MLS games after beating Dynamo GK Tally Hall on Saturday, with a 4-for-4 mark in CONCACAF Champions League ... RSL’s last PK miss was 12 attempts earlier than that April 6 miss @COL, as FW Robbie Findley saw his spot kick on Sept. 9, 2010, saved @SEA by GK Kasey Keller in an eventual 0-0 draw ... All-time, RSL is now 33-for-38 from the 12-yd spot ... In addition to Saborio (2013) and Findley (2010), other RSL players to fail to convert are Javier Morales (2008), Alecko Eskandarian (2007) and Andy Williams (2006) ...
... BUT OPEN CUP HISTORY FROM SPOT IS:
With both Joao Plata and Javier Morales converting from the spot in the June 12 5-2 win over Charleston, RSL continues its perfect 6-for-6 penalty kick conversion rate in Open Cup play ... Joining the active duo are Will Johnson (1-for-1), Jason Kreis (1-for-1) and Jeff Cunningham (2-for-2) ...

OTHER CRITICAL MILESTONES ON HORIZON:
In addition to the recent Kreis/RSL century mark milestones, GK Nick Rimando recently became the 4th player (3rd GK) in MLS history to surpass 30,000 minutes played and has now made 340 MLS appearances (passing former RSL MF Andy Williams) ... Only Kevin Hartman (37,260) and Steve Ralston (33,142) have played more minutes than Rimando’s 30,933 ... Rimando’s next win gives him 151 in his career, extending his hold on 2nd overall (Hartman, 180), while he is now at #3 overall in saves (1,225, 139 behind 2nd-place Cannon) ... Beckerman is now #1 all-time in fouls committed with 502, surpassing former Fire/Chivas MF Jesse Marsch ... KB5 also owns sole possession of #2 in yellow cards alltime (71, 9 behind Pablo Mastroeni) ...

RIMANDO 2nd-EVER TO CENTURY MARK:
In this year’s 2013 regular-season opener, RSL GK Nick Rimando became just the 2nd player in MLS history (Kevin Hartman) to reach 100 career clean sheets, as the veteran recorded shutout #100 March 3 in San Jose and #105 June 29 at Toronto, 70 of which have now come in the RSL Claret-and-Cobalt ... Rimando – now in his 14th year as an MLS standout who has started in every career appearance in goal, and who won MLS Cup in 2004 with United and in 2009 with RSL – came into MLS with the Miami Fusion ... A comparison of Rimando’s various MLS stints:

RIMANDO CLEAN SHEET / ASSIST COMBO:
In that home match v VAN on May 4, RSL took the early 2nd-half lead when GK Nick Rimando watched a Nigel Reo-Coker free kick sail over his goal and quickly restarted play with a pinpoint goal kick, finding FW Joao Plata wide right 60 yards upfield ... Plata took a few touches and sent a cross onto the head of MF Luis Gil for the U.S. U-20 star’s second tally of the season ... The game-winning assist was Rimando’s 4th of his career and the 7th all-time helper in his 14th season ... However, May 4 v VAN marked only the second time the veteran combined a shutout - the 102nd of his career with a game-winning assist (8/8/09, 1-0 v SEA) ...
ALL-TIME GOAL +/- TRENDS POSITIVELY:
It took 265 all-time regular-season matches, but the May 19 4-1 victory @CHV put RSL’s all-time aggregate goal differential in MLS play deep into positive territory at the conclusion of a game, the club scoring 341 goals all-time while conceding 338 ... The May 8 loss @MTL by 2-3 score returned the club’s all-time ledger back to even, after the first-ever foray into +1 territory 3 days prior with the 2-1 win @NE ... Back on Sept. 21, 2011 in a 3-1 win at Red Bull Arena in New York, RSL briefly got its goal +/- head above water, but a late Joel Lindpere goal dropped the side to even, three days before a 1-4 road loss at D.C. United ... When Jason Kreis took over RSL four games into the club’s third season in 2007, the differential was minus-43, eventually dropping as low as minus-57 after a loss at Dallas in May, 2008 ... It took 160 regular-season matches, but RSL finally made up the difference ... The Aug. 30 4-2 win in all-time game #280 put the club at a new all-time high-water mark of +17, dropped by 2 down to +15 at present due to the recent 2-game skid ...

When an RSL player scores 2 or more, the team is now 37-4-4 all-time … The loss 7/27 @NY was only the 2nd in RSL’s MLS history when a multi-goal game did not result in points for the team; besides the 4-5 loss at Cruz Azul in CCL (2010) and the 4-6 loss at Minn. in Open Cup (2005), the lone prior MLS loss came June 17, 2007, when Chris Brown’s brace @LA was wasted in a 2-3 setback ...
In 112 MLS/CCL/Open Cup/Playoff games, Saborio’s total of 15 multi-goal matches more than doubles the total of #2 Jeff Cunningham (5) and Javier Morales/ Robbie Findley/Fabian Espoindola with 4 “braces” each, while “Sabo” owns the club’s lone postseason multi-goal match, coming Fall 2011 against SEA in the West Semis ...
THE MYTHICAL “FIRST-CHOICE XI”:
While Kreis started the same XI in back-to-back games to open 2013, it hadn’t happened in 13 consecutive games until home games against SJ & LA in early June ... RSL rolled out the same XI just 4 times out of 41 games across all competitions last season ... How rare are back-to-back lineup duplicates for RSL? It happened only once in 45 games in 2011 (Aug 6/13) and just twice in 41 games in 2010 (June 25/July 2; July 31/Aug 7) ... Due to injuries, cards, suspensions and national-team duty a year ago, RSL boss Jason Kreis fielded his “firstchoice” starting XI for only 59 minutes last season back on May 5, a 2-1 home win over New England, a victory marred by the Will Johnson red card in the 59’ ... That occasion - the first of the year and only time in 34 MLS games in 2012, besides the July 31 CCL match at Herediano - came on nearly the one-year anniversary of the last regular-season occurance, May 7, 2011, when RSL saw Javier Morales chopped down from behind and lost until late Sept. with a horrifically broken ankle ...

NO PLACE LIKE HOME The newly renovated JELD-WEN Field opened on April 14, 2011, in front of a sold-out crowd in the Timbers first-ever home match as an MLS team. The club proceeded to sell out 34 consecutive regular season home games in the team’s first two MLS seasons, even after raising the 86-year-old downtown venue’s capacity from 18,627 to 20,438 after the first season. In 2013, the club earned an 11-1-5 overall regular-season home record in 17 games, which was the best home record in MLS.

HEAD COACH CALEB PORTER A leading candidate for MLS Coach of the Year, Caleb Porter was named the Timbers head coach on Aug. 29, 2012, and joined the club following seven seasons as the head coach at the University of Akron (2006-12). Porter helped lead the Timbers to a dramatic turnaround in just one season and the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference with a positive result in 29 of the team’s 34 regular-season matches this year. Under Porter, the Timbers set club record marks in points (57), goals (54) and engineered a 23-point turnaround from 2012. The team set a club-record, 15game unbeaten stretch from March 16-June 23. A two-time MLSsoccer.com Coach of the Week (Week 6, Week 9), Porter set the MLS record for a first-year head coach with 15 straight undefeated games. Porter also guided the club to a 15-game home unbeaten streak during the regular season. Porter built Akron men’s soccer into a perennial national championship contender, leading the Zips to five consecutive trips to the NCAA tournament’s Round of 16 (2008-12), back-to-back NCAA College Cup appearances in 2009 and 2010, and the school’s first national title in any sport in 2010. In all, he guided Akron to seven Mid-American Conference (MAC) regular-season championships and five MAC Tournament titles. Porter set multiple NCAA records at Akron, including a 48-match, home unbeaten streak (44-0-4) from 2008-11 and a 47-match unbeaten streak (44-0-3) in conference play from 2006-12. From Kalamazoo, Mich., Porter garnered numerous honors while at Akron, including NSCAA National Coach of the Year in 2009. He was a three-time NSCAA All-Ohio Coach of the Year (2008-09, 2011) and received MAC Coach of the Year honors six straight years from 2007-12. Porter became the fastest coach in program history to reach 100 career wins, accomplishing the feat in just 126 matches. He is also among the fastest all-time in NCAA history to the century mark, reaching the milestone in fewer games than collegiate Hall of Fame and current MLS coaches Bruce Arena (140; Virginia) and Sigi Schmid (136; UCLA). While at Akron, Porter recruited and developed more than a dozen Zips players who have gone on to professional careers, many plying their trade in Major League Soccer. He had an MLS-record five former players selected in the first round of the 2011 MLS SuperDraft and seven selected overall that year. Under Porter’s guidance, Portland’s Darlington Nagbe and former Akron standout Teal Bunbury were recipients of the MAC Hermann Trophy, awarded to the nation’s top collegiate player. Porter also served as the head coach of the U.S. U-23 Men’s National Team during 2012 CONCACAF Olympic qualifying and spent three years as an assistant coach on the U.S. U-18 National Team from 2009-11. Prior to joining Akron, Porter was an assistant coach for six years (2000-05) at Indiana University, helping the school make six NCAA tournament appearances, win back-to-back national championships in 2003 and 2004 and claim five Big Ten Conference titles. As a player, Porter was the 27th overall pick by the San Jose Clash in the 1998 MLS College Draft. He spent time with San Jose and the Tampa Bay Mutiny before a knee injury ended his playing career in 2000. Porter also played for the U.S. National B Team from 1996-97, winning a bronze medal at the 1997 World University Games. He had a successful collegiate playing career at Indiana, where he was a three-year captain, a threetime All-Big Ten honoree and a four-year letter winner. Porter led the Hoosiers to four conference titles, four NCAA tournament appearances – twice advancing to the College Cup. As a senior, Porter captained IU to 23 consecutive wins before losing to eventual national champion UCLA in the national semifinals and was the runner-up for the 1997 Hermann Trophy. Porter graduated from Indiana in 1998 with a degree in sports management. He and his wife, Andrea, have three children – two sons, Colin and Jake, and a daughter, Stella Jane.
MATCH DAY PREVIEW Sunday’s match marks the first leg of the Western Conference Championship series between the Timbers and Real Salt Lake. Portland reached the conference championships by virtue of a 3-2 win over Seattle Sounders FC on Nov. 7, which provided the Timbers with a 5-3 semifinals win on aggregate. Including the regular season and playoffs, the Timbers are unbeaten in 10 straight games. Portland has won three straight games and six of its last eight games. The Timbers were the only team in the MLS Cup Playoffs to win their conference semifinal series in regulation, win both legs of the semifinals and win by a two-goal margin on aggregate. Real Salt Lake defeated the two-time defending MLS Cup-champion LA Galaxy with a 2-0 win after extra time on Nov. 7 at Rio Tinto Stadium. Defender Chris Schuler scored the series-clinching goal in the 102nd minute, sending Real Salt Lake to the conference finals. Midfielder Sebastian Velasquez tallied the series-tying goal in the 35th minute.
PORTLAND TIMBERS AT REAL SALT LAKE SUNDAY, NOV. 10, 2013 REGULAR-SEASON SERIES NOTES Sunday’s first leg of the Western Conference Championship between Portland and Real Salt Lake marks the fifth time the two clubs will meet this season across all competitions. The sides squared off three times during the MLS regular-season schedule and went toe-to-toe in the semifinals of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. Portland, which most recently held Real Salt Lake without a shot on goal in a scoreless draw Oct. 19 in the Timbers’ regular-season home finale at JELD-WEN Field, compiled a 0-1-2 mark against Real Salt Lake during the regular season. The two sides faced off for the first time in 2013 in the semifinals of the U.S. Open Cup at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah, on Aug. 7. An early goal from RSL forward Álvaro Saborío gave the home side momentum. RSL added a second goal in the 78th minute before Timbers midfielder Diego Valeri trimmed the lead with a goal in the 90th minute. It wasn’t enough as Portland was eliminated from the tournament. In regular-season play, Portland played host to RSL for the first time on Aug. 21. Holding a 3-2 lead at JELD-WEN Field, the Timbers conceded the game-tying goal to Real Salt Lake in the third minute of second-half stoppage time. Just nine days later, the Timbers traveled to Real Salt Lake and sustained a 4-2 loss after a red card to Timbers midfielder Ben Zemanski at the stroke of halftime changed the course of the game with Portland trailing 2-1 at that point.
LAST TIME VS. REAL SALT LAKE The Timbers recorded a then fifth straight shutout at home in a hard-fought scoreless draw with Real Salt Lake in a matchup between the top two clubs in the Western Conference before a sellout crowd of 20,674 at JELD-WEN Field on Oct. 19. The Timbers clinched their first MLS postseason berth earlier in the day and remained in first place in the Western Conference with the draw. That helped the club end its regular-season home schedule with a 15-game unbeaten streak at JELD-WEN Field. The club finished the regular season with an 11-1-5 record at home during the regular season, with its only loss coming on March 9; the Timbers’ home record during the regular season ranks as one of the best in MLS history. In its regular-season home finale, Portland held the league’s top-scoring team in Real Salt Lake without a shot on goal, extending its current home shutout streak to 450 consecutive minutes. The clean sheet was the 14th of the season for the Timbers, tied for fifth-most in MLS history for shutouts in a single season. Goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts was credited with his 13th clean sheet of the season, which tied for the league lead and was a new career-high. Portland’s 11 goals conceded at home during the regular-season are the second-fewest in MLS.

PORTLAND TIMBERS AT REAL SALT LAKE SUNDAY, NOV. 10, 2013 SCOUTING REAL SALT LAKE Real Salt Lake is making its fourth appearance in the conference finals since 2008 and its sixth consecutive trip to the postseason. Head coach Jason Kreis’ squad defeated the back-to-back defending MLS Cup-champion LA Galaxy 2-1 on aggregate with a 2-0 win on Nov. 7 at Rio Tinto Stadium. RSL finished the regular season as the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference as forward Álvaro Saborío led the team with 12 goals in 16 regular-season games. Goalkeeper Nick Rimando recorded a 14-7-6 record with nine shutouts.
PLAYOFF DEBUTS Setting the 1996 season aside when all clubs were in their first season, the Timbers became the fifth team to advance to the conference finals in their postseason debut. Three of the four previous teams: Colorado (1997), Chicago (1998) and Houston (2006) reached MLS Cup with Chicago and Houston winning it all. Real Salt Lake (2008) advanced to the conference finals in their postseason debut, as well.
LAST FOUR STANDING For the first time in MLS Cup Playoffs history, all four head coaches (Caleb Porter, Jason Kreis, Peter Vermes and Dominic Kinnear) in the Conference Championships are former MLS players.
CLICKING ON OFFENSE The Timbers’ five aggregate goals against Sounders FC in the Western Conference semifinals set the MLS mark for most goals scored in regulation in a conference semifinal series since MLS adopted the home-and-away format for the round in 2003. The San Jose Earthquakes achieved the mark in the 2003 Western Conference Semifinals in a 5-4 aggregate win over the LA Galaxy, but scored two goals in extra time.
HOME DOMINANCE The Timbers haven’t lost a game at home since March 9, a span of 16 straight games including the postseason, but the team’s home dominance against Western Conference opponents dates back even further. Portland last conceded defeat at home to a Western Conference foe on July 28, 2012 - a streak of 17 straight unbeaten games at home against Western Conference opponents.
UNBEATEN RUN(S) The Timbers recorded two of the top-five longest unbeaten streaks during the 2013 regular season. They logged a league-best, 15-game unbeaten streak from March 16-June 23, and an eight-game unbeaten streak (Sept. 7-Oct. 26), which tied for fourth-longest in the 2013 regular season.
DRAMATIC TURNAROUND The Timbers had a marked improvement in 2013. When compared to 2012, Portland earned a 23-point improvement in points and a 43-goal improvement in goal differential, which ranks as the biggest turnaround in MLS history. Portland also conceded 23 fewer goals than the 2012 season and led the league with a plus-21 goal differential.
MAN IN THE MIDDLE Timbers midfielder Diego Valeri set MLS club single-season records with 10 goals and 13 assists during the regular season. Valeri’s 13 assists ranked first overall in MLS and placed him in a tie for fourth for the most assists by a firstyear MLS player all-time. Valeri’s 33 points placed him tied for ninth all-time on the Timbers single-season points list while his 13 assists are second only to John Bain’s 14 assists during the 1980 NASL season.
IRON MAN Timbers midfielder/forward Darlington Nagbe has started a Timbers MLS-club record 48 straight regular-season games for the team dating back to the 2012 MLS season. In fact, Nagbe has played in 67 of the team’s 68 regular-season games since the start of the 2012 season. Nagbe is the club’s MLS career leader with 17 goals and 95 regular-season appearances.
BALANCED OFFENSE The Timbers set an MLS record in 2013 with four different players - Will Johnson, Ryan Johnson, Darlington Nagbe and Diego Valeri - recording nine or more goals during the regular season. Valeri led the team with 10 goals, while all the others finished with nine apiece. Rodney Wallace wasn’t too far behind the group with seven goals this season. In the postseason, Portland has received five goals from five different players in two matches.
CLEAN SHEETS The Timbers posted a league-high 15 shutouts during the regular season, including five in their last six games prior to the MLS Cup Playoffs. The club’s total is tied for third-most in MLS history for shutouts in a single season with Real Salt Lake in 2010 and Sporting Kansas City in 2012.
SCORING FIRST The Timbers posted a 12-0-6 record during the regular season in games in which they scored the first goal of the match and continued the trend in the postseason, scoring first in back-to-back wins over Seattle in the Western Conference semifinal series. Portland scored the opening goal in five of its last six regular-season games. The Timbers finished as one of only three teams with an undefeated record when scoring first in games this season.
SETTING RECORDS The Timbers set the all-time MLS record for most home shutouts with their 11th of the season in a scoreless draw against Real Salt Lake on Oct. 19. FC Dallas and the LA Galaxy previously recorded 10 home shutouts during the 2010 MLS season.
STABLE BACK FOUR The Timbers used the same back four pairing of Jack Jewsbury, Futty Danso, Pa Modou Kah and Michael Harrington in each of the last eight matches, including the playoffs. During that span, Portland has conceded just five goals over 720 minutes.
ALWAYS DANGEROUS The Timbers scored nine goals from outside the penalty box during the regular season, the most of any team in the MLS Cup Playoffs.
ON THE NATIONAL STAGE The Timbers know how to put on a show for national television - combining with opponents for an average of three goals per game on national broadcasts since the 2011 season. During the 2013 regular season and playoffs, the Timbers have earned an 9-2-2 record in national television broadcasts.

The Houston Dynamo once again cruised through a Knockout Round match, defeating an eight-man Montreal Impact 3-0 at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Dynamo were on top after just the the 16th minute. After Will Bruin played the ball to Ricardo Clark at the top of the box, Clark turned a snazzy backheel in traffic to put Bruin through, and he made no mistake with the ensuing finish past goalkeeper Troy Perkins. Just 11 minutes later the Dynamo doubled the lead. A charging Hernán Bernardello came crashing in to bring down Boniek García in the box for a clear penalty kick, and he stepped up himself to finish his own spot kick home. After Nelson Rivas was shown a second yellow for an elbow on Bruin in the second half, Bruin completed his double in the 71st minute. Corey Ashe hit a ball over the top to Bruin, who outpaced a defender and slipped wide to avoid Perkins before firing home from the top of the box. A late fracas saw Andrés Romero and Marco Di Vaio both sent off by referee Mark Geiger.

Seattle Sounders FC scored early and late and survived a red card to defeat the Colorado Rapids 2-0 at CenturyLink Field. The home side enjoyed the better of the play in the first half and finally broke through in the 28th minute. Leo Gonzalez set off on an overlapping run down the left flank and whipped in a cross that struck the head of a Rapids defender but went right to Brad Evans, who chested it down, lined up his shot and laced it home inside the far post for his first postseason goal since 2008. Sounders FC went down a man in the 85th minute when goalkeeper Michael Gspurning inexplicably came outside of his area to deal with a long clearance and handled it, resulting in a straight red card from referee Silviu Petrescu. But Eddie Johnson eased the home fans' fears when he took a pass from Clint Dempsey inside the penalty area, beat a defender and then fired a left-footed shot inside the near post to seal the match in the 89th minute.

The Houston Dynamo overcame a two-goal deficit in the second half against a 10-man New York Red Bulls, leaving the teams in a 2-2 draw at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Red Bulls -- who had won all three league meetings between the teams -- were two goals to the good before the game was barely a half-hour old. The opener came in the 22nd minute when Thierry Henry sent in a sublime delivery from the left and Tim Cahill struck with a trademark header. Ten minutes later it was 2-0 after a rapid counterattack that ended when Eric Alexander cut back in the box and fired past Hall. The Dynamo started their comeback in the 51st minute when Ricardo Clark latched on to a poor clearance at the top of the box and skimmed a low shot to the back of the net. Then after Jamison Olave received a red card in the 65th minute from referee Ricardo Salazar for a challenge on Houston striker Omar Cummings, the leveler came in the 90th minute. A Bobby Boswell header from a corner was saved by New York goalkeeper Luis Robles, but the rebound fell right to Cummings and he touched home from almost on the line.

The New England Revolution won their first MLS Cup Playoffs game in four seasons, capturing a 2-1 victory against Sporting Kansas City in the first leg at Gillette Stadium. After weathering a first-half storm, New England scored the opener 10 minutes after the interval. Sporting 'keeper Jimmy Nielsen saved an initial shot from Juan Agudelo from close range, but the effort then deflected toward the goal line where Andy Dorman tucked home from two yards. The Revolution doubled the advantage in the 67th minute. Lee Nguyen played Kelyn Rowe through on the right side of the penalty area, and he finished well with the outside of his foot for a precious second. Sporting reduced the deficit two minutes later after a scramble inside the penalty area when a free kick was partially cleared then sent back toward goal where Aurelien Collin lurked at the back post to tap home from close range.

The Portland Timbers took control of their Western Conference Semifinal Series with a 2-1 win over Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field in the club's first-ever MLS playoff game. The Timbers opened the scoring solidly against the run of play in the 15th minute. Jack Jewsbury placed an inch-perfect cross from the right corner and Ryan Johnson was able to lose his mark with a run to the near post, slipping a glancing header past Sounders goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann from a tight angle. The Timbers were able to add a second goal in the 67th minute. Kalif Alhassan found himself unmarked on the right wing and put in an angled pass to Darlington Nagbe. His first touch took his past a defender and then he lethally struck with a right-footed shot inside the back post. Sounders FC did pull a goal back in the 90th minute, when Osvaldo Alonso gave his team a lifeline, pouncing on a ball that had fallen to his feet off a Shalrie Joseph header after a long throw from Brad Evans. But the Timbers held on for their first win ever at CenturyLink Field -- and in fact had never even led in a MLS game in Seattle.

The LA Galaxy claimed the advantage in their Western Conference Semifinal Series following a 1-0 victory against Real Salt Lake in the first leg at StubHub Center. The game's lone goal came just two minutes into the second half. Robbie Keane turned at the byeline on the left and rolled a pass all the way through the penalty area. Sean Franklin, well behind the play, stepped up and hit a rocket from nearly 30 yards out with the outside of his right foot inside the right-hand post. Galaxy goalkeeper Jaime Penedo was called upon to make just two saves in keeping the clean sheet in a game the Galaxy bossed from the outset, though RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando also saw just two shots on target for the entire evening.

The Houston Dynamo once again reached the conference championship, overcoming the Supporters' Shield-winning New York Red Bulls on their home ground, winning 2-1 in their Eastern Conference Semifinals series second leg and the series on a 4-3 aggregate scoreline. The Red Bulls took the lead in the 23rd minute. Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall came out to intercept a Lloyd Sam cross but inexplicably spilled it, allowing Bradley Wright-Phillips to pounce on the loose ball and calmly slot it home. But the Dynamo were level 13 minutes later when Ibrahim Sekagya played an ill-advised pass across the top of the 18-yard box that an opportunistic Brad Davis picked off and slotted home with ease. The Dynamo survived the second half before Omar Cummings again came off the bench for the crucial goal in the 104th minute, turning home from close range after a cross was headed down in the box.

Sporting Kansas City hit for a late series equalizer and scored the extratime winner to book their place in the conference final, defeating the New England Revolution 3-1 in the second leg of the Eastern Conference Semifinal Series, winning the tie 4-3 on aggregate. Aurélien Collin put the hosts into the lead in the 42nd minute, turning home a deflected shot from close range. But the Revolution regained the series lead in the 70th minute when Dimitry Imbongo pounded home a free kick with a fine side volley. Nine minutes Sporting were again improbably level, as left back Seth Sinovic gave his club the lead on the night with a far-post blast after Graham Zusi's headed flick-on. Then after coming on as a late substitute, Claudio Bieler sent SKC through when he stabbed home a centering pass from Benny Feilhaber from the right side of the area in the 113th minute.

The Portland Timbers advanced in their first-ever MLS Cup Playoffs series, dispatching their most hated rival in a 3-2 defeat of Seattle Sounders FC in the second leg of their Western Conference Semifinal, winning 5-3 on aggregate. Returning home with a lead, the Timbers were up by two goals before halftime. Will Johnson converted a penalty in the 29th minute when Djimi Traore was caught for a handball in the box, and just before halftime, Diego Valeri made a decisive run into the area to meet Rodney Wallace’s perfect feed for a sliding goal in the 44th minute. The game seemed over in the 47th minute when Futty Danso snuck behind the defense and got on the end of a Wallace cross from a quick restart for a 3-0 lead. Seattle pulled a goal back on a long throw-in in the 74th minute that skipped through to DeAndre Yedlin, who pounced on the loose ball and fired home. Just two minutes later, Eddie Johnson got on the end of a Yedlin cross to bury a header into the top left corner. But that was all Seattle could muster.

Real Salt Lake reached the Western Conference Championship for the fourth time in six years, putting an end to the LA Galaxy's reign as MLS Cup champions with a 2-0 victory in extra time in the second leg of their semifinal series, winning the tie 2-1 on aggregate. In the 35th minute, midfielder Sebastian Velasquez gave Real the goal they needed to bring the series even on aggregate, heading home a cross from defender Chris Wingert from the left flank past LA goalkeeper Jaime Penedo. The Galaxy could muster just one shot on target, while Real hit the post and crossbar in the second half -- and had a seeming match-winner ruled out by referee Baldomero Toledo. But the winner finally came 12 minutes into extra time. Javier Morales flighted in a free kick from well out o the left and the ball carried all the way to the back post where Chris Schuler came sliding in to turn the ball home. RSL finished out the game with 10 men due to an injury to Alvaro Saborio, but still held out for the triumph.
