ATLANTA UNITED HEAD COACH / GERARDO MARTINO On if he was surprised by Chicago playing at full strength: “No, it doesn’t surprise me. We analyzedthe game and we thought that might happen. We knowthat they’re in a difficult place in the league and that they mightwant to give everything they have in Open Cup. At the end of the day,I don’t think that’s why we lost the game. I don’t think you couldreally say the result was a factor of that, of the difference in thetwo teams. It was an even game even with the lineup that we played.” On putting the loss behind them against Portland on Sunday: “They are two different competitions, so whatever happened tonight started and ended tonight. We know we have to get back to playing in the league. What happens on Sunday, hopefully, is just a continuation of how we played against Columbus.” On the play of Andrew Wheeler-Omiunu tonight, making his first start with the first team: “I think he played a good game. I think he was solid in midfield. He was good at managing and controlling the ball for us, and I think he along with Oliver Shannon are the only two options we have that can sub into defensive midfield for Jeff (Larentowicz) and I think Miles (Robinson) also had a great performance. Those are the positives we can take away from tonight despite theresult. We had positive individual performances, like Wheeler-Omiunu and Miles. They gives us confidence in their abilities to play.”

ATLANTA UNITED DEFENDER / LEANDRO GONZÁLEZ PIREZ On the team’schemistry going into the game and especially in the final third of the pitch: “In the first half we were missing a little bit of intensity especially in the attacking third. Maybe we had some misunderstandings at times, but I think in the second half,we (were)more adjusted and used to playing together. In general terms, I think we played a good game.” On if the team underestimated Chicago coming into tonight’s match: “No, I don’t think we underestimated anybody. We played in this competition last year. We did the same thing. We knew what to expect. It’s true we had a few changes in our lineup. The roster is full of 30guys, so we know everyone can play and step in. About half the team was different tonight, but as I said,I thought we played well. I thought the guys fought really hard. We know we also wanted to give some guys rest because we have another important game on Sunday, and it’s important to keep taking care of the points in the league.We just have to get ready for that game.”

ATLANTA UNITED MIDFIELDER / HECTOR VILLALBA On playing a full 90 minutes again: “I’m happy. Happy to play 90 minutes. It’s been probably more than two months since I played 90 minutes. I’m happy to get back, but I’m sad about tonight’s result.” On providing offense for the team: “Yeah, I want to provide what I always do to the team. My speed, the ability to play the final pass, score goals, play in guys like Josef (Martinez) or Romario (Williams) or whoever else is in the box. I just want to combine with all the guys in the attack.”

LAST MATCH RECAP The Portland Timbers defeated the LA Galaxy 1-0 before 14,556 fans at Providence Park on June 15, advancing to the quarterfinals of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup for the third time in the last six seasons. Midfielder Sebastián Blanco scored the game-winning goal in his first U.S. Open Cup start for the Timbers.

Providence Park 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 all of its regular-season home games in the team’s first eight MLS seasons. Spanning the 2013 and 2014 seasons, the Timbers compiled an MLS-club record 22-game unbeaten streak (12-0-10) at Providence Park from April 6, 2013 to June 1, 2014. The streak ranks as the third-longest all-time in MLS history.

HEAD COACH GIOVANNI SAVARESE Entering his first season with the club after being named head coach on Dec. 18, 2017, Savarese, the third head coach in Portland’s MLS history, brings over 25 years of professional experience as a player and coach to the Timbers organization. A native of Caracas, Venezuela, Savarese joined the Timbers after spending the past five seasons as the head coach and sporting director of the New York Cosmos, where he developed one of the most successful clubs in the NASL, compiling a 6526-44 record in 135 regular-season games, including a career-best 20-7-5 record in 2016 and an undefeated NASL Spring Season in 2015. Additionally, the Cosmos scored 223 goals during Savarese’s five seasons at the helm, which rank as the most in the NASL during that stretch. Savarese also led the Cosmos to four Soccer Bowl appearances, claiming the 2013, 2015 and 2016 championships. Most recently, after a 10-7-15 record in the 2017 regular season, Savarese guided the Cosmos to their third straight appearance in the NASL championship match, narrowly falling 2-0 to the San Francisco Deltas. Prior to joining the Cosmos organization, Savarese, who holds a USSF “A” license, served as the head of youth development for the New York MetroStars/Red Bulls from 2005-2007, before joining the Cosmos as the club’s academy director in 2010, with a focus on developing youth talent in the greater New York area. Savarese served as the Cosmos academy director for two years before being announced as the head coach of the first Cosmos team in 28 years on November 19, 2012. Savarese enjoyed an 18-year professional playing career, including five seasons in Major League Soccer, scoring 159 goals in 322 games played in various leagues in the United States, Venezuela, Italy and England. At the international level, Savarese earned 30 caps for the Venezuela National Team from 1989-2001, scoring 10 goals, including a notable finish against South American rival Argentina in 1996. After beginning his professional career in Venezuela with Deportivo Italia in 1986, Savarese spent five seasons (1990-95) playing in the Cosmopolitan Soccer League and the USISL before being drafted by the MetroStars in the inaugural MLS SuperDraft in 1996 as the ninth overall selection, notching a teamrecord 41 goals and 94 points in 85 regular-season appearances during three seasons with the club. The striker’s record stood until 2009 when it was surpassed by Juan Pablo Angel. Following his three seasons with the MetroStars, Savarese spent the 1999 MLS campaign with the New England Revolution, scoring 10 goals in 27 appearances. Shortly afterward, Savarese joined Italian Serie A club A.C. Perugia and was loaned to A.S. Viterbese in 2000, before returning stateside to join the San Jose Earthquakes in the 2000 MLS season. After a brief stint with the Earthquakes, Savarese joined Swansea City where he scored 14 goals across all competitions, prior to signing with Millwall F.C. in 2001. Following short spells with Venezuelan club Deportivo Italchacao and Italian club Sassari Torres, Savarese’s playing career concluded in 2004 after scoring five goals in 10 appearances with the Long Island Rough Riders.

Midfielder Sebastián Blanco scored the gamewinning goal in his first U.S. Open Cup start for the Timbers, recording his sixth goal across all competitions in the 2018 campaign. Moving on With the 1-0 win, the Timbers advance to the U.S. Open Cup quarterfinals for the third time as an MLS club, previously reaching that mark in the 2013 and 2014 campaigns.

The result also marked Portland’s 10th clean sheet in the U.S. Open Cup since 2004. Key plays Portland created its first chance early in the match when defender Zarek Valentin drove the ball into forward Samuel Armenteros’ feet on the edge of the 18-yard box, with the striker turning and running at his defender, before forcing a strong, closerange save from goalkeeper David Bingham in the 10th minute of play. Bingham was called into action again just two minutes after Armenteros’ chance when midfielder Diego Chara fired a curling effort toward the top corner from just outside the 18-yard box, forcing another solid save from the goalkeeper. With 15 minutes remaining in the first half, the Timbers took the lead through a quick combination play in the final third. The play took place when Valentin played a ball through the lines to forward Fanendo Adi, who quickly flicked the ball inside the area for Blanco. Running onto Adi’s pass, Blanco skipped around his marker, before carefully placing the ball into the back of the net with a left-footed strike in the 30th minute.

NOTABLE QUOTES Portland Timbers head coach Giovanni Savarese On advancing to the quarterfinals of the 2018 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup… “As I said many times, we want to go on the field and give everything that we have to achieve the goal of getting victories and going through, like we did today. We have to take one game at a time. We’ll enjoy this one tonight, but then tomorrow we’ll start working for next week. It’s going to be a very difficult match, and were just going to take one game at a time. I’m proud of the guys because they gave everything tonight.” Portland Timbers midfielder Sebastián Blanco On playing in the No.10 role tonight... “It’s good. Sometimes when I was young I played in this position. Now it’s not normal but it’s good because we have two forwards that fight every game. The last 15-20 minutes, we stayed a little back because LA wanted the draw but we defended very good. I like playing free and moving for every position. I don’t have a problem with that.” On his first-half goal… “The goal was a very good play. It started with the deep pass to (Fanendo) Adi. I touched [the ball] with my right and finished with my left. It’s good because we worked very hard for this game and we’re very happy to continue in the Cup.” Portland Timbers goalkeeper Jeff Attinella On Mabiabla’s goal-line clearance in the second half... “That was a huge save for him and a big moment for the game because if it goes 1-1, the game changes. He definitely saved a goal so that was a great play for him. He did that very well and he’s been playing really well all season so we’ve expected it at this point.”
