LAST MATCH RECAP The Portland Timbers fell to the LA Galaxy 2-1 before 25,462 fans at the StubHub Center on March 4. After conceding two goals in a two-minute span in the first half, the Timbers scored their first goal of the season through midfielder Sebastián Blanco, who converted midway through the second half of Sunday’s match to record his first league goal in 2018.

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 six 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. In the collegiate ranks, Savarese enjoyed a four-year (1990-93) playing career with Long Island University after moving to the United States from Venezuela in 1990. Savarese has also served as a member of the media, working as an analyst for ESPN International and ESPN Deportes. Giovanni and his wife, Michelle, have two daughters, Valentina and Alessandra.

PORTLAND TIMBERS AT NEW YORK RED BULLS SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 2018 PREVIOUS MATCH - PORTLAND TIMBERS AT LA GALAXY (L 1-2) MATCH RECAP The Portland Timbers fell to the LA Galaxy 2-1 before 25,462 fans at the StubHub Center on Sunday night. The Timbers scored their first goal of the season through midfielder Sebastián Blanco, who converted midway through the second half of Sunday’s match to record his first league goal in 2018. Facing the Galaxy Sunday’s match marked the Timbers’ first loss to the Galaxy in their last four contests played at the StubHub Center, dating back to Oct. 18, 2015. Heading into Sunday’s game, the Timbers’ three-game unbeaten streak at the StubHub Center consisted of two wins and one draw against the Galaxy, including a 1-0 victory in Portland’s first away game of the 2017 season. MLS season openers The 2-1 result against the Galaxy marked just the second time the Timbers have fallen in a season opener since joining MLS in 2011. Entering Sunday’s fixture, the Timbers were unbeaten in six straight (3-0-3) season-opening matches. By the numbers With defender Marco Farfan and midfielder Cristhian Paredes both earning the start in Sunday’s game, Portland featured two 19-year-olds in the starting lineup for the match against the Galaxy, marking the first time in the Timbers’ MLS era that multiple players under the age of 20 have started in a regular-season contest. Timbers debut Kicking off the 2018 campaign, multiple players made their MLS debuts for the Timbers, including midfielders Paredes, Andy Polo and Andrés Flores and forward Samuel Armenteros. Earning his first start with the club, Paredes played 84 minutes before exiting the match for Flores. Polo also logged his first start for the Timbers, playing 72 minutes, before making way for Armenteros in the second half. Key plays Approaching halftime, the Galaxy managed to score two goals in a two-minute span, with forward Ola Kamara finding the back of the net in the 32nd minute, before midfielder Roman Alessandrini doubled the home side’s lead two minutes later. Twenty-one minutes into the second half, the Timbers managed to cut into the Galaxy’s lead when forward Fanendo Adi slipped Blanco into space in the box, with the midfielder driving at the goal, before carefully slotting his effort in between Bingham’s legs to provide Portland’s first goal of the season in the 66th minute.

Sebastián Blanco scored the first goal of the season for the Timbers. The goal was the ninth of his Timbers career. Fanendo Adi recorded his first assist of the season. The assist was the 13th assist of Adi’s MLS career. For the first time in club history, the Timbers started multiple players under the age of 20 in a league match, with 19-year-olds Marco Farfan and Cristhian Paredes both in the starting lineup. Andy Polo is the first Peruvian to play for the Timbers in the club’s 43-year history. Additionally, Paredes is the first Paraguayan to play for the Timbers in club history across all eras (since 1975), while Andrés Flores became the first player from El Salvador to play for the Timbers in the club’s MLS era. Paredes, Polo, Flores and Samuel Armenteros each made their Timbers debuts in the match. Giovanni Savarese made his MLS head coaching debut, becoming the first Venezuelan-born manager in MLS history. The Timbers outshot the Galaxy 15-14, including a 7-3 edge in shots on target.

NOTABLE QUOTES Portland Timbers head coach Giovanni Savarese On his takeaways from the opening match of the season… “It was definitely not the result we were looking for our first match. We knew it was going to be a tough match here, with a different Galaxy [team]. I thought that in the first half we did a lot of good things. I don’t think they were that dangerous, until the moment that they were able to score the goal, and then I think we collapsed a little bit during the end of the first half. We came with a different energy in the second half. I thought we created chances, we became dangerous. I thought we dominated the play in their half of the field, but the counters were difficult, because then all of a sudden we had to just make sure that we were in good areas for them not to find space. They had a couple of chances and we had a couple of chances. At the end, as I said, not the result that we wanted.” On what to focus on before next week’s trip to New York… “We have to be a little bit more balanced. When we’re attacking and we’re sending numbers, we’re still in good areas to recover the ball and not allow them to find the counter. I think that’s something we have to work on a little bit, but I was very pleased with the effort of the guys. They put everything in, and for the first match, it wasn’t the result that we wanted, but I think it was the energy that we want.” Portland Timbers forward Fanendo Adi On the team’s performance… “I thought the first half was a little bit up and down but in the second half we showed character. It was a tough place to come and play. It is a good field, good players, good team and we presented ourselves in a good way, especially in the second half we came out very aggressive…we take the good things out of the game today and we move on. I think the performance in general was something we are going to build on.” On what they did differently in the second half… “I don’t think anything specifically really changed, it is just the mentality. [Gio] said in the locker room that we just had to believe and if we believe we can come back into the game and that is how we just went about being aggressive, being more active and moving the ball quicker. I think those are the only things that changed but like I said it is just something we are going to build on.”

PORTLAND TIMBERS AT NEW YORK RED BULLS SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 2018 SCOUTING THE RED BULLS Parting ways with midfielders Sacha Kljestan and Felipe, the New York Red Bulls made key acquisitions to bolster their squad during the offseason, including Argentinian playmaker Alejandro Romero Gamarra, also known as Kaku, and MLS veteran defender Tim Parker. Kaku, the team’s 22-year-old Young Designated Player, was acquired via transfer, while Parker was acquired via trade with Vancouver Whitecaps FC, which sent Felipe to the Canadian-based club. Heading into Saturday’s match, the Red Bulls are one of three teams that had a bye during opening week, but enter the game coming off consecutive wins in CONCACAF Champions League play, recently defeating Club Tijuana 2-0 during a midweek contest on March 6. Bradley Wright-Phillips scored both goals for the Red Bulls in the win over Tijuana.

FACING THE RED BULLS Heading into Saturday’s match, the Timbers are unbeaten in their last two matches played against the Red Bulls, dating back to July, 10, 2016. Facing the Red Bulls at Red Bull Arena, the Timbers are also unbeaten in their last two games, dating back to May 24, 2014. In the only meeting between the two teams in the 2017 season, the Timbers took a 2-0 win at Providence Park on Aug. 18, with midfielder Diego Valeri and forward Darren Mattocks each scoring in the win. In Portland’s last match at Red Bull Arena, both teams battled to a 0-0 draw in the 2016 season. During the head-to-head series, neither team has won more than one game at their home stadium.

HEAD-TO-HEAD The Timbers have held the Red Bulls scoreless in their last two games played against the Eastern Conference club, dating back to July 10, 2016. Playing at Red Bull Arena, the Timbers haven’t lost a game against the Red Bulls since Aug. 19, 2012, winning their last two games away from home against the New Jersey-based club.

EASTERN CONFERENCE FOES In the last three seasons, the Timbers have recorded a winning record against Eastern Conference opponents, logging a 14-10-7 record against teams from the East since the start of the 2015 season, including a 5-3-3 record in 2017.

EXTENDED ROAD TRIP Due to the construction currently underway at Providence Park as part of phase one of the stadium expansion, the Timbers will play their first five league games on the road in 2018. During that stretch, Portland will travel nearly 20,000 miles, facing the LA Galaxy, New York Red Bulls, FC Dallas, Chicago Fire and Orlando City SC.

AWAY FORM Dating back to the start of the 2014 MLS season, the Timbers are tied for the fourth-most away wins (18) in the league, recording seven away wins in 2014 and also in their 2015 championship-winning season. Additionally, in 2017, the Timbers were tied for the fourth-most away wins (4) in MLS).

UPCOMING MILESTONES With his next assist, midfielder Diego Valeri will rank second for assists in club history across all eras (since 1975). Valeri currently has 53 assists, ranking tied with Willie Anderson. With a win in Saturday’s match, the Timbers will extend their unbeaten streak against the Red Bulls to three games in league play, dating back to July 10, 2016.

YOUNG TALENT With defender Marco Farfan and midfielder Cristhian Paredes both earning the start in the Timbers’ first game of the 2018 season when the club faced the LA Galaxy at the StubHub Center on March 4, Portland featured two 19-year-olds in the starting lineup, marking the first time in the Timbers’ history that multiple players under the age of 20 have started in a MLS regular-season contest. Acquired by the Timbers with the utilization of Targeted Allocation Money on Feb. 2, Paredes joined Portland from Liga MX side Club America. Farfan, the club’s the youngest player signing since its inaugural MLS season in 2011 and the first product of the Timbers Academy program to sign a Homegrown Player contract with the MLS club, has made seven appearances (6 starts) in two seasons with the first team.

TIMBERS DEBUT Kicking off the 2018 campaign, multiple players made their MLS debuts for the Timbers, including midfielders Cristhian Paredes, Andy Polo and Andrés Flores and forward Samuel Armenteros. Earning his first start with the club, Paredes played 84 minutes before exiting the match for Flores. Polo also logged his first start for the Timbers, playing 72 minutes, before making way for Armenteros in the second half.

NEW LEADER AT THE HELM Heading into the 2018 MLS regular season, the Timbers announced the club’s third head coach in its MLS era, naming Giovanni Savarese as the new man in charge for the club’s first team. 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 65-26-44 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.

REIGNING MVP Midfielder Diego Valeri enters the 2018 MLS season as the reigning Landon Donovan MLS Most Valuable Player, after becoming the first Timbers player to receive MLS MVP honors following a record-setting 2017 campaign. Valeri’s record-setting season was highlighted by a team-high 21 goals, a career-high for the midfielder, and a team-high 11 assists, marking the fourth time the midfielder has hit double digits in goals and assists in his five seasons in MLS.
