LAST MATCH RECAP Despite scoring in the fourth minute of the match, the Timbers fell 2-1 against FC Dallas before 10,381 fans at Toyota Stadium on Wednesday night after surrendering a pair of goals early in the second half. Pressing FC Dallas early in the game, the Timbers opened the scoring when midfielder Diego Valeri scored his second goal in the last three games and third of the 2016 season, carefully finishing forward Lucas Melano’s pass into the bottom left corner.
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.
