HEAD COACH CALEB PORTER Head coach Caleb Porter enters his fifth season with the Timbers in 2017. Since joining the club for the 2013 season, Porter has compiled one of the league’s top winning percentages among active coaches with a record of 64-48-51, while leading the Timbers to their first MLS Cup title in 2015, two Western Conference Championship appearances and double-digit victory totals in each of his first four seasons. During his tenure, the Timbers have qualified for CONCACAF Champions League twice (2014-15, 2016-17), finished in the top three in the Western Conference twice and made their deepest run in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, reaching the semifinals in 2013. Porter coached in his 100th game as an MLS coach against Real Salt Lake on Oct. 14, 2015, posting a record of 39-25-36 in those games, which tied Dominic Kinnear for the fewest losses (25) in MLS history in a coach’s first 100 career games. In addition, his .570 winning percentage during that span ranked fourth among then-active coaches through their first 100 games, behind the Bruce Arena (6237-1, .625), Sigi Schmid (52-33-15, .595) and Kinnear (40-25-35, .575). Ending the 2015 campaign with a nine-game unbeaten run across all competitions, the Timbers lifted their first MLS Cup trophy with a 2-1 win over Columbus Crew SC on Dec. 6, 2015. Portland finished the regular season with an MLS-club-record 15 wins, while also tying for the league lead in shutouts (13). On the road, the Timbers finished the 2015 season tied for the most road wins (7) in the league. Porter, who led the Timbers to a club-record 12 home victories in 2016, is a two-time recipient of the Oregon Sports Awards’ Slats Gill Award for Sportsperson of the Year (2013, 2015), becoming the fourth soccer-related figure to receive the honor since it was founded in 1957. On Aug. 6, 2014, Porter helped guide the MLS All-Stars to a 2-1 win over Bayern Munich in the 2014 AT&T MLS All-Star Game at Providence Park. In his first season with the club, Porter was named the 2013 MLS Coach of the Year after assembling one of the biggest turnaround seasons in league history, guiding the Timbers to a 23-point improvement and a plus-43 goal-differential increase over the previous season. The 2013 club finished atop the Western Conference to secure its first MLS playoff berth and posted a league-best 15 shutouts, including a league-record 11 clean sheets at home. Prior to joining the Timbers, Porter, who holds a U.S. Soccer Federation “A” license, was one of the most successful coaches in NCAA history during his tenure as head coach at the University of Akron (200612). He compiled a career mark of 123-18-17 and was named 2009 NSCAA National Coach of the Year. Porter led the Zips to back-to-back NCAA College Cup appearances (2009, 2010) and the school’s first national title in any sport in 2010. Porter’s coaching career also includes time as the head coach of the U.S. U-23 Men’s National Team during 2012 CONCACAF Olympic qualifying and three years as an assistant coach on the U.S. U-18 National Team (2009-11). Porter was an assistant coach for six years (2000-05) at Indiana University, winning two national championships with the Hoosiers. Porter graduated from Indiana in 1998 with a degree in sports management. He and his wife, Andrea, have three children – two sons, Colin (8) and Jake (6), and a daughter, Stella (5).

PORTLAND TIMBERS VS COLORADO RAPIDS WEDNESDAY, AUG. 23, 2017 PREVIOUS MATCH - PORTLAND TIMBERS VS NEW YORK RED BULLS (W 2-0) MATCH RECAP The Portland Timbers defeated the New York Red Bulls 2-0 before a sold-out crowd of 21,144 fans at Providence Park on Friday night. Midfielder Diego Valeri scored for a fourth straight game to record his 14th finish of the season, extending his MLS career tally to 51 goals, while forward Darren Mattocks recorded his second goal of the season. With the result, the Timbers (10-9-7, 37pts) extended their home record to 7-2-4, while also recording their fourth clean-sheet victory in 2017 to move into a four-way tie atop the Western Conference. Additionally, Portland produced its 19th home win (19-5-6) dating back to the start of the 2016 campaign, which ranks as the secondmost in the league during that stretch. The Timbers opened the scoring in the 65th minute when midfielder Diego Chara dispossessed defender Kemar Lawrence in the final third, before driving a quick pass into the box. Reacting quickly to Chara’s cross, Valeri beat his marker to the ball, before carefully placing his effort into the back of the net. The goal marked Valeri’s 51st career MLS finish, placing him in a tie with teammate Fanendo Adi for the most goals in club history across all eras (since 1975). Valeri also matched his career high for goals in a season (14) with the finish, becoming the second Timbers player, along with Adi, to have consecutive seasons with 14 or more goals. Chara recorded an assist for a second straight game during Valeri’s goal. With the assist, Chara has tallied 16 assists in MLS play, which ranks as the third-most in the club’s MLS era. Deep into stoppage time, the Timbers doubled their lead on a counter attack, following an unsuccessful free-kick attempt from the Red Bulls (12-10-2, 38pts). With the Timbers attacking quickly on the break, Valeri found space on the right side of the field, driving forward before playing the ball across the edge of the 18-yard box to Mattocks. With Red Bulls goalkeeper Luis Robles pushed up the field for the previous free-kick attempt, Mattocks calmly slotted his effort past two defenders and into the back of the net to give the Timbers a 2-0 edge. The goal marked Mattocks’ second league finish of the season. With the finish from Mattocks, the Timbers have scored 62 goals at home since the beginning of the 2016 season, tied for the most in MLS with New York City FC.

NOTABLE QUOTES Portland Timbers head coach Caleb Porter On tonight’s performance… “I thought it was very gritty. Obviously it wasn’t the most aesthetically pleasing type of game, but we knew it was going to be with the way that they play. They basically just match you and get a lot of body contact and obviously we were going to press as well. It was two teams that wanted to press and possess and play in the front half. It created a little of a direct game. These are soccer games that happen like that in this league especially when you are playing a team like that who isn’t going to give an inch. It reminds me of playing a KC type of game. You have to grind and dig out second balls and win duels. You have to pick your moments to get forward. They are a difficult team to play and they didn’t play a few of their top guys, they showed just how deep they are. I’m happy with the result. We grinded for it. It’s great to get a clean sheet. I think the guys we’ve all talked about how we need to close out games, well, we closed out the game and found a way. Forget the football and the pretty, the this and that, we showed today as a team that we can be mature and closeout a game and get three points. As you get into the latter stages of the season that’s what it’s about.” On the continued growth of Sebastian Blanco… “What I love about Blanco and it’s one of the main reasons we signed him is because he plays for the team. He works for the team. He does the little things for the team. He’s a very honest guy. You don’t always get that in a DP. Sometimes they want to play for themselves, but with Blanco he’s working and he’s fighting and he’s scrapping and he’ll play a role and he’ll also bring some quality to the team. So I think he’s doing what we thought he would and I thought he had an excellent game today even though he didn’t get on the scoresheet he did a lot of little things to help our team today.”

PORTLAND TIMBERS VS COLORADO RAPIDS WEDNESDAY, AUG. 23, 2017 SCOUTING COLORADO The Colorado Rapids enter Wednesday’s match coming off a 1-0 loss to D.C. United at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park on Aug. 19. The club will be led by interim head coach Steve Cooke after parting ways with former head coach Pablo Mastroeni. The Rapids are winless in 10 games played on the road this season with an 0-8-2 record. Forward Dominique Badji leads the team in goals (6) and assists (5).

GAME MANAGEMENT Through 26 games played so far this season, the Timbers are 9-2-5 when scoring the first goal in the game. Additionally, the Timbers have been effective at closing out games when holding the lead, producing a 10-0-4 record when leading at the 75-minute mark.

GENEROUS PLAY The Timbers, who have recorded 42 assists this season, have tallied 23 assists in their last 14 games played, dating back to June 2. Overall, Portland has seven different players with three or more assists this season, including three players with six or more assists, with midfielder David Guzman and Sebastián Blanco each recording six assists. Midfielder Diego Valeri leads all players with nine assists.

ASSISTS FROM SET PIECES In the Timbers 3-1 win against the LA Galaxy on Aug. 6, Portland midfielder David Guzmán recorded his sixth assist of the season, setting up defender Liam Ridgewell’s finish in the first half with a threatening corner kick. With the assist, four of Guzmán’s assists have been direct from set pieces, tying him for the league lead in that category.

HOME FORM Dating back to the start of the 2016 MLS campaign, the Timbers have won the second-most home games in the league with 19 wins at Providence Park, compiling a 19-5-6 record. Only the New York Red Bulls have won more home games during that stretch (21).

CHANCE CREATORS In the 2017 MLS campaign, midfielders Diego Valeri and Sebastián Blanco are both ranked in the top five in MLS for chances created from open play, with Blanco ranked third (41) and Valeri ranked fourth (40).

SHOTS FIRED With one of the most potent attacking groups in the league, the Timbers rank fourth in MLS for shots taken this season with 353, averaging 14 shots per game. The Timbers also have two players ranked in the top 15 for shots taken, with Fanendo Adi ranked ninth (66) and Diego Valeri at 11th (64).

TIMBERS INJURY REPORT OUT: Gbenga Arokoyo (achilles), Chance Myers (ankle) QUESTIONABLE: Fanendo Adi (hamstring), Liam Ridgewell (quad), Marco Farfan (ankle), Jake Gleeson (hamstring) * As of Aug. 22, 2017

UPCOMING MILESTONES With his next goal, midfielder Diego Valeri, who has scored 51 goals since joining the club in 2013, will record the most goals in club history across all eras (since 1975). In addition, with his next four assists, Valeri will tie John Bain for the most assists (55) in club history across all eras. Goalkeeper Jake Gleeson is four clean sheets away from recording the seventhmost shutouts across all eras in club history (since 1975).

EL MAESTRO Scoring for a fourth straight game in the Timbers 2-0 win against the Red Bulls on Aug. 18, midfielder Diego Valeri extended his MLS goal-scoring tally to 51, which ranks tied as the most in club history across all eras (since 1975). Valeri is just the 18th player in league history to record 50 goals and 50 assists. Scoring his 50th goal on Aug. 12 against Toronto FC, Valeri became the third fastest player (139 games) in league history to reach the 50-50 mark.

GOALS SCORED With 45 goals scored through 26 league games played so far this season, the Timbers have scored the fourth-most goals scored in MLS in 2017, averaging 1.73 goals per game.

Additionally, 16 of those 23 goals have been scored by three of the Timbers front four attacking players, with Fanendo Adi, Sebastián Blanco and Diego Valeri accounting for approximiately 70 percent of the goals scored by Portland during that stretch.

IRONMAN Midfielder Darlington Nagbe notched his 200th league appearance for the Timbers in the team’s 2-2 draw against Seattle Sounders FC on June 25. Drafted as the No. 2 overall pick in the 2011 MLS SuperDraft, Nagbe, who has played the most games across all eras in club history (since 1975), is the second-youngest player in league history to reach the 200 mark with one club, ranking behind Eddie Gaven.

BLANCO FINDS FORM Midfielder Sebastián Blanco has been one of the league’s top performers in recent weeks, with the Blanco scoring the game-winning goal, while also recording an assist, in Portland’s 2-1 win against Vancouver on July 23. In the past four games since the Vancouver win, Blanco scored in a 2-2 draw against Houston on July 29, before recording an assist against the LA Galaxy on Aug. 6. Blanco has scored four of his five goals in 2017 since June 10.
