SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES vs PORTLAND TIMBERS BUCK SHAW STADIUM, Santa Clara, Calif. September 19, 2012 (WEEK 29, MLS Game #273) 7:30 p.m. PT (CSN-CA; KPDX) The San Jose Earthquakes will be looking to maintain their long home unbeaten run and their hold on the MLS Supporters’ Shield when they play host to the Portland Timbers on Wednesday evening at Buck Shaw Stadium. The Quakes are undefeated in their last 12 league games at home, leading the MLS overall table after their 2-0 win at Chivas USA last weekend. The Timbers are grimly holding onto their dreams of a first MLS Cup Playoffs trip, coming off a thrilling 1-1 home draw with Seattle last weekend. REFEREE: Armando Villarreal.

Goals from Danny Mwanga and Jack Jewsbury sent the Timbers on their way to a 2-1 win July 3 at Jeld-Wen Field. It was the first win by either team in the all-time series. The teams played to a pair of 1-1 draws in league play in the Timbers’ inaugural MLS season. They also met in the U.S. Open Cup, the Quakes winning 1-0 in a play-in game in Portland. Coaches record: Frank Yallop v POR: P3 W0 L1 D2 … Gavin Wilkinson vs. SJ: first game LAST MEETING (MLS): 7/3: POR 2, SJ 1 (Mwanga 29, Jewsbury 59 – Gordon 74) The Timbers took the lead on 29 minutes. From a counterattack, Franck Songo’o delivered a perfect cross from the right wing to a charging Danny Mwanga, and the hometown hero chipped in past Quakes goalkeeper David Bingham for his first goal for Portland. Portland doubled their lead in the 59th minute. Under pressure from Mamadou 'Futty' Danso while trying to reach a Songo’o free kick, Bingham wasn't able to secure the ball. Jack Jewsbury pounced and slid in to prod it over the line before Bingham could recover. The Quakes once again hit for a late goal. Alan Gordon redirected a long shot by Marvin Chavez past Timbers goalkeeper Troy Perkins in the 74th minute to cut the deficit, but this time they could not come all the way back.

MLS GAME INFORMATION
SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES The San Jose Earthquakes recorded a second win against Chivas USA in as many outings, this time a 2-0 result on Saturday evening at The Home Depot Center. The Quakes lead the Western Conference and the MLS overall table with 56 points from 28 games. LAST MATCH The Quakes took the lead five minutes before the intermission. After San Jose’s Alan Gordon was elbowed by Chivas defender John Valencia inside the box, referee Chris Penso conferred with his assistant and then pointed to the spot. Chris Wondolowski converted from the spot, and at halftime, Chivas USA head coach Robin Fraser was dismissed from the field. San Jose quickly doubled their advantage four minutes after the break. Justin Morrow slipped the ball across the penalty area towards Wondolowski, who laid the ball off to Gordon, and he powered a shot past an offbalance Dan Kennedy. Earthquakes head coach Frank Yallop made two changes to the team that rolled to a 4-0 victory against Chivas USA at Buck Shaw Stadium. Justin Morrow came in at left back for Ramiro Corrales and Mehdi Ballouchy replaced Marvin Chavez in the midfield. SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES (4-4-2): Jon Busch - Steven Beitashour, Ike Opara, Victor Bernardez, Justin Morrow - Mehdi Ballouchy (Ramiro Corrales 75), Sam Cronin, Rafael Baca, Simon Dawkins (Khari Stephenson 90) - Chris Wondolowski, Alan Gordon (Steven Lenhart 62). TEAM NEWS The Quakes have won three games in a row, matching their season-long set three times earlier. They are riding a 12-game undefeated streak at Buck Shaw Stadium. No matter where you go in our league, there is always a tough game. I thought we were good all-round and I think we could’ve scored more goals in the end,” said Quakes head coach Frank Yallop. “Winning brings confidence. I thought it was a tricky game tonight, we played them last game and actually I thought it was a pretty even game but we came out as winners.” Chris Wondolowski scored his first goal since Aug. 18, his second consecutive goal from the penalty spot, and extended his lead atop the MLS Golden Boot standings to four goals ahead of New York’s Kenny Cooper and Salt Lake’s Álvaro Sabório. The 19 goals are the most in a single MLS season since Landon Donovan scored 20 in 2008, and a singleseason career-high for Wondolowski. He led MLS with 18 goals in 2010. Alan Gordon scored his 12th goal in the win vs. Chivas USA; he and MLS Golden Boot leader Chris Wondolowski have combined for 31 goals entering the week. Gordon had 22 career goals in eight MLS seasons entering the season. A year ago, Wondolowski tied for the league lead with 16 goals, but finished second in the MLS Golden Boot standings to D.C. United’s Dwayne De Rosario, who had 12 assists to Wondolowski’s three. Wondolowski contributed his seventh assist of the season on Gordon’s goal – matching his career total from his first seven MLS seasons. “Chris is always in good spots, and I think he’s looking for his teammates now,” Yallop said. “They’re making good runs and he’s making good choices with the ball in the final third. It’s not always a shot for Chris. Obviously, he’s a goalscorer, but he’s adding another string to his bow, if you like, with his assist play this season.” Said Wondolowski: “It was just great movement, an easy job of laying it off and a heck of a finish by Alan. Those goals are a bit special because it involves six or seven guys that are intricate parts of it. I know only one or two guys get the assists, but it was one of those team goals.” The Quakes have scored 10 goals over their last three games, while they’ve recorded back-to-back shutouts for a third time this season. “The defense has done a fantastic job. I’m not sure of exact numbers, but a few goals have been scored in the last five games and that’s impressive,: said Wondolowski.” Throughout we’ve had a lot of different guys in there but I think it also comes with all 11 guys, we work hard we start with a lot of pressure and our midfield put in so much work and covered so much ground.” Mehdi Ballouchy made his first start for the Quakes, playing a wide midfield role with Marvín Chavez sidelined with a hamstring strain that could put him out 2-4 weeks. “It gives us a different look from normal wide players. I’m pleased with the game plan, and pleased with Mehdi’s contribution, for sure,” said Yallop. Said Ballouchy: “I think us coming in helps [Beitashour and Morrow] get wide and high. That’s what they like do and they can get off more crosses that way. ... When we start in the middle, combining [passes], it brings the opposition tight in the middle, which opens up the wide spots. And then we go back to our crossing game.”
MLS GAME INFORMATION
PORTLAND TIMBERS The Portland Timbers stretched their home unbeaten streak to four games, coming back for a 1-1 draw with Seattle Sounders FC on Saturday afternoon at Jeld-Wen Field. The Timbers are in a tie for eighth place in the Western Conference with 28 points from 28 games. LAST MATCH Mere seconds after Timbers goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts was forced off with an injury in the 57th minute, Sounders FC took the lead. From a restart by goalkeeper Michael Gspurning, Fredy Montero brought it down in the area and fired a right-footed missile from the right corner of the box on the turn that beat subsitute 'keeper Joe Bendik to the top corner. But the home side pulled even in the 78th minute. From a corner kick, Rodney Wallace skied to meet a Jack Jewsbury cross that pinballed in front of the goal before a Seattle defender’s attempt to clear it out of danger pushed the ball just over the line inside the post. Timbers interim head coach Gavin Wilkinson made one change to the side that dropped a 3-0 decision to the Colorado Rapids at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. Rodney Wallace came in at left back for the suspended Steven Smith. PORTLAND TIMBERS (4-2-3-1): Donovan Ricketts (Joseph Bendik 57) - Kosuke Kimura, Hanyer Mosquera, David Horst, Rodney Wallace - Jack Jewsbury, Diego Chara - Sal Zizzo (Kalif Alhassan 83), Darlington Nagbe, Franck Songo'o (Danny Mwanga 72) - Bright Dike. TEAM NEWS While the Timbers were not able to clinch the Cascadia Cup for this season, they did remain in the driver’s seat, now with eight points from four matches, with trips to both Seattle and Vancouver still ahead. “We’ll accept coming away with a tie, I think coming back from a goal down. If you’re a goal up, and you give that away, it’s three points lost. I think we salvaged a point today,” said Timbers interim head coach Gavin Wilkinson. “ … We gave the fans something to be excited about, and kept the Cascadia Cup very, very much alive, and benefiting us, I hope. We’ll go on the road, we have great fan support on the road, and we still get to bring it back to Portland, hopefully, if and when.” With Steven Smith suspended for the match with yellow card accumulation, Rodney Wallace made his first start since Aug. 15, playing at left back. “I thought Wallace tonight showed a lot of energy and defensively did a good job,” Wilkinson said. “He was very, very involved going forward. … I thought Rodney as a left back did a tremendous job.” Said Wallace: “Obviously there are things I can improve on every time, but from here on it’s just one of those things where I have just have to move forward and keep it going. This isn’t anything to be super excited about. We still have many games to go, and I still have to improve myself every single day.” After playing every minute of his first five matches with the club following his arrival from the Montréal Impact, goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts was forced from the field injured before the hour mark. Joe Bendik made his first appearance in a league game since April 28 vs. Montréal, when he came on for Troy Perkins at the three-quarter mark of the game. “We probably should’ve played with a little bit more of a stronger mentality in that situation. Charge the ball a little bit higher up the field and get him [Bendik] a touch on the ball. The first touch on the ball for him was picking it up out of the back of the net,” said Wilkinson. “I thought his mentality, his character showed, and his response. I think he made a fantastic save there, and it was positive from everybody.” Jack Jewsbury picked up his second assist in the last four games, his first assists since recording helpers on two of Portland’s first three goals on the season in the 3-1 First Kick win vs. Philadelphia. “I think we have a belief in one another that maybe we didn’t have earlier in the season, that we’re not going to put our heads down when we go down a goal, and give up a second and third,” said Jewsbury. “We have the belief in one another, and this is a confident group. I think we’re playing well, and maybe on another day, we get out of here with three points.”

Earthquakes’ Last Game Earthquakes 2, Chivas USA 0; Sept. 15, 2012; Home Depot Center, Carson, Calif. Chris Wondolowski set a new club record for goals in a single season and tied his own MLS mark for game-winning goals in a campaign as the San Jose Earthquakes knocked off Chivas USA 2-0 at the Home Depot Center. San Jose’s win was a memorable one for Wondolowski. The talismanic striker polished off a penalty in the 40th minute for his club-record 19th goal of the season. The goal was also his ninth game winner of the campaign, tying an MLS record previously reached by Wondolowski in 2010 and former LA Galaxy forward Carlos Ruiz in 2002. Wondolowski also linked up with Alan Gordon four minutes into the second half. Justin Morrow and Simon Dawkins opened the sequence with a give-and-go to spring Morrow down the sideline. The left back sent his cross low through the box toward Mehdi Ballouchy, who stepped over the ball and left it for Wondolowski. Wondolowski then laid a pass off for Gordon who smashed his shot on the run past Chivas USA goalkeeper Dan Kennedy for a 2-0 San Jose lead. Defensively, Jon Busch came up with a pair of diving saves to keep his seventh clean sheet of the season. Earthquakes’ Last Game vs. Portland Earthquakes 1, Portland Timbers 2; July 3, 2012; JELD-WEN Field, Portland, Ore. The San Jose Earthquakes pulled a goal back, but couldn’t quite overcome a two-goal deficit on the road, falling 2-1 against the Portland Timbers at JELD-WEN Field. Danny Mwanga gave the Timbers the lead in the 29th minute and Jack Jewsbury tacked on the game winner in the 59th minute. However, the Earthquakes didn’t go away without a fight. San Jose chopped the Timbers’ lead in half in the 74th minute. Marvin Chavez blasted a shot into the box that deflected off Portland’s Mike Chabala before Alan Gordon deftly flicked a shot past Timbers goalkeeper Troy Perkins. The goal was Gordon’s sixth of the season, tying him with Steven Lenhart for second-most on the team. The Quakes sent a barrage of crosses into the mix to close the match, but couldn’t find the equalizer.

San Jose Earthquakes vs. Portland Timbers, Sept. 19, 2012, 7:30 p.m. PT Earthquakes Reserves Win Fourth Straight The San Jose Earthquakes won their fourth-straight Reserve League match on Monday, knocking off Vancouver Whitecaps FC 2-1 on the road thanks to goals from guest player Matt Fondy and academy midfielder Jesus Morales. The Earthquakes are 5-2-2 in Reserve League play and wrap up their season at Seattle on Tuesday, Sept. 25. Quakes First in Western Conference, Supporters’ Shield Standings The Earthquakes (17-6-5, 56 pts.) remain atop the Western Conference and Supporters’ Shield standings following an idle weekend. San Jose holds a three-point advantage over Sporting Kansas City (15-7-6, 51 pts.) in the Supporters’ Shield race. Meanwhile, the Earthquakes are eight points ahead of Seattle Sounders FC (13-6-9, 48 pts.) in the Western Conference table. Top of the League Through 28 games, the Earthquakes are No. 1 in MLS with 58 goals scored and 60 assists. With 33 goals conceded, the Quakes are also No. 1 in the league with a +25 goal differential. Additionally, San Jose leads the league with 36 second-half goals and a +22 goal differential in the second half. All-Time Wins/Points Records The San Jose Earthquakes are two wins away from tying the club’s all-time mark for wins in a season, set in 1999. Of the team’s 19 wins in 1999, 10 came via shootout with only nine in regulation. With 56 points and six games remaining, San Jose is also closing in on the club record for points in a season, set in 2005. The team ended 2005 with 64 points and an 18-4-10 record. Keeping it Clean The Earthquakes have picked up headlines for their offensive output this season, but the defense has been just as impressive over the last two weeks. Saturday’s 2-0 win against Chivas USA was Jon Busch’s seventh clean sheet of the season and marked the second time this season the club has recorded shutouts in back-to-back weeks. Road Warriors Saturday’s 2-0 win against Chivas USA was the Earthquakes’ seventh road win of the season, second most in club history. San Jose’s Supporters’ Shield run in 2005 featured a benchmark 9-4-3 road clip. Earthquakes Win Player Lottery for F Marcus Tracy The Earthquakes won the rights to former Aalborg BK forward Marcus Tracy through a weighted lottery conducted last week at MLS headquarters. San Jose was one of eight teams vying for Tracy’s services and had a 4.6 percent chance of winning the lottery. Tracy won the M.A.C. Hermann Trophy, an award given to the most outstanding college player, in 2008 with Wake Forest. He was a Demon Deacon from 2005-08, suiting up alongside current Earthquakes Sam Cronin (2005-08) and Ike Opara (2007-08). Tracy finished his career No. 7 on Wake Forest’s all-time goals scored list with 30 and helped the Deacons to an NCAA title in 2007, scoring a goal and notching the game-winning assist in a 2-1 result over Ohio State. Following his accomplished college career, Tracy decided to take his talents overseas. The 25-year-old forward spent 2009-11 with Aalborg BK before signing with MLS. Unbeaten Streak Continues at Buck Shaw The Earthquakes extended their Buck Shaw Stadium unbeaten streak to 15 games after a 4-0 win over Chivas USA on Sept. 2. The Quakes last loss at Buck Shaw Stadium came against the Colorado Rapids on Aug. 13, 2011. The Quakes all-time home-unbeaten streak is 18 games, set from Sept. 25, 2004-Oct. 8, 2005 at Spartan Stadium. The Earthquakes are 9-0-3 at Buck Shaw this season and 10-1-3 at home including matches played at AT&T Park and Stanford Stadium. Quakes Set Single Season Goals Record With their four goals against Chivas USA on Sept. 2, the Earthquakes eclipsed the previous club record for goals in a single season (55) set in 1997. San Jose’s running total is up to 58 with six games remaining. More Goals The Quakes have scored 58 goals in 28 games for a 2.07 per game average. They are aiming to become the first team to score two goals per game since the Miami Fusion scored 57 goals in 26 games and the LA Galaxy scored 52 times in 26 games in 2001. Only 10 teams have averaged two or more goals per game for an entire season. Even More Goals With their four goals on Sept. 2 against Chivas USA, San Jose has scored 36 goals at home this season, placing them first in MLS in goals scored at home. They are three ahead of the D.C. United, who have netted 33 goals at home this year. Goals Aplenty The Earthquakes have only been held off the scoreboard twice in 2012, on March 17 in a 1-0 loss against the Houston Dynamo and July 7 in a 0-0 draw at FC Dallas. The club record for least times being shut out in a season is three in 1997. Free-Kick Goals The Earthquakes scored three free-kick goals against Chivas USA on Sept. 2, the most on record in a single game since Elias was hired as the official statistician of MLS in 2003. Victor Bernardez began the onslaught with a swerving free kick from 35 yards out in the 11th minute and Ramiro Corrales tacked two on in the second half as San Jose cruised to a 4-0 win.
San Jose Earthquakes vs. Portland Timbers, Sept. 19, 2012, 7:30 p.m. PT Double Digit Scorers Chris Wondolowski (19) and Alan Gordon (12) are the first Earthquakes duo to score double-digit goals in the same season since Ronald Cerritos (12), Lawrence Lozzano (10) and Jeff Baicher (10) in 1997. San Jose has a chance to match or surpass the 1997 trio if Steven Lenhart (8) can tally twice more and Simon Dawkins (7) can score three times more before season’s end. Quakes Linking Up San Jose leads MLS in team assists with 60 in 28 games, six more than the next-best on the list, the LA Galaxy. Marvin Chavez leads the club and is tied for No. 5 in MLS with nine assists. Veteran defender Ramiro Corrales is next on the team with eight while winger Shea Salinas and forward Chris Wondolowski is third with seven each. Right back Steven Beitashour led San Jose a year ago with seven. Wondo Doubles Career High Chris Wondolowski added another assist to his season total with a lay-off to Alan Gordon for San Jose’s second goal in a 2-0 win against Chivas USA on Sept. 15. He now has seven for the season, more than doubling his previous career high of three assists in a season. Race for the Budweiser Golden Boot Chris Wondolowski remains in front of the pack in the race for the Budweiser Golden Boot. The Danville native has 19 goals, five more than his closest pursuers, New York’s Kenny Cooper and Real Salt Lake’s Alvaro Saborio. Wondolowski’s Hit List Chris Wondolowski has scored at least one goal against every MLS opponent except for two: Portland and Houston. He has a chance to cross the Timbers off the list on Wednesday and in a return trip to Portland on Oct. 27. His high for goals against a single team is six against Chivas USA, Toronto FC and Vancouver Whitecaps FC. Wondolowski Ties MLS Single Season Record for Game-Winning Goals Chris Wondolowski’s 40th-minute penalty in San Jose’s 2-0 win against Chivas USA on Saturday tied the MLS record for game-winning goals in a single season. The result-decider was his ninth of the season, tying his own mark from 2010 as well as former LA Galaxy forward Carlos Ruiz’s 2002 output. Wondolowski has scored the game winner in nine of San Jose’s 17 wins to date. Wondolowski Closing in on Club Scoring Mark Chris Wondolowski is five goals away from matching Ronald Cerritos’ club record for career goals scored. Cerritos scored 61 goals in 148 games over six seasons in San Jose. Meanwhile, Wondolowski has 56 goals in 100 games over five seasons for the Earthquakes. Wondolowski Surpasses Club Record for Goals in a Single Season Chris Wondolowski’s 40th-minute penalty in San Jose’s 2-0 win against Chivas USA on Saturday was his 19th goal of the season, breaking a club record previously set by Wondolowski in 2010 when he won the Budweiser Golden Boot. The two-time league leader in goals is aiming to become the first to net 20 in a single season since Landon Donovan hit that exact mark in 2008. Only nine players have scored 20 or more goals in a single season since the league began in 1996. Century Mark for Wondolowski In addition to his goal-scoring feats, Chris Wondolowski made his 100th career appearance with the Earthquakes in Saturday’s 2-0 win against Chivas USA. He needs 15 more games played to catch former San Jose midfielder Eddie Lewis for No. 10 on the club’s all-time list. Late Goals in Bunches The Quakes pace the league in goals over the final 30 minutes with 33. That total is eight more than the next-best team, the LA Galaxy. The Quakes also lead MLS comfortably with an incredible 18 strikes over the final 15 minutes of contests, establishing a new club record. The Houston Dynamo are next on the list with 15. San Jose has also scored an MLS record seven second half stoppage-time goals. Stoppage-Time Shenanigans Steven Lenhart’s goal in the third minute of second-half stoppage (93rd minute) vs. Seattle Sounders FC on Aug. 11 was the seventh scored by San Jose in 2012, a new club and MLS record for such strikes. The Earthquakes have earned themselves an additional 11 points in the standings thanks to stoppage-time heroics this season. Of their seven goals, five were game winners and one was an equalizer. Late-Game Scoring Records The Earthquakes set a pair of club records pertaining to late-game scoring in the club’s 2-1 win against Seattle Sounders FC on Aug. 11. Steven Lenhart’s stoppage-time goal was the seventh scored by the Earthquakes in 2012, topping the club record of six. Additionally, that goal marked the 17th goal San Jose has scored in the final 15 minutes of normal time this season, one-upping the previous club record of 16 set in 1998. Rope-a-Dope The Quakes have a penchant for late-game heroics this season. The club is a league-best 4-4-4 when conceding first. Additionally, San Jose has scored six game winners – five in stoppage time – to go along with three equalizers in the 82nd minute or later.
San Jose Earthquakes vs. Portland Timbers, Sept. 19, 2012, 7:30 p.m. PT Earthquakes Approaching Club Record for Wins in Single Season The San Jose Earthquakes are two wins away from matching their club record set in 1999 for wins in a single season. At 17-6-5, San Jose has six games remaining to tie the record. In 1999, San Jose finished 19-13, but 10 of those wins came via shootout. San Jose was 18-4-10 in 2005 and finished the season with a club record 64 points. Yallop No. 4 on MLS Wins List Eighth-year Earthquakes head coach Frank Yallop is tied for No. 4 on the MLS regular-season coaching wins chart at 112. He became just the sixth manager in MLS history to reach the 100-win milestone with a 3-1 home victory over Real Salt Lake on April 21. He ranks behind Sigi Schmid (170), Bruce Arena (142) and Bob Bradley (124) and is tied with Steve Nicol (112) and former pupil Dominic Kinnear (112). Hernandez Moving Up Club Record Book Earthquakes center back Jason Hernandez is No. 8 in both starts (118) and minutes played (10,488) in club history. He is also tied for No. 9 on the club’s all-time appearance list with 120. Hernandez made his 100th career start in San Jose against Real Salt Lake in front of a home crowd at Buck Shaw Stadium on April 21. Busch Among MLS Career Leaders With a current mark of .745, Earthquakes goalkeeper Jon Busch is second on Major League Soccer’s all-time chart in career saves percentage. He trails only Brad Friedel, currently of Tottenham Hotspur of the English Premier League, who produced a mark of .756 over 38 games with the Columbus Crew in 1996-97. Busch picked up the 67th clean sheet of his 12-year MLS career on Sept.15 at Chivas USA, sixth-most among MLS’ all-time leaders. Busch has posted 21 shutouts in his three seasons as the starter in San Jose, to go along with his 21 during three seasons (2007-09) with the Chicago Fire, and 25 in five seasons (2002-06) with the Columbus Crew. Busch is also No. 8 all-time in saves in MLS history with 869 over his career. Corrales in Exclusive 200-Start Club Veteran defender and team captain Ramiro Corrales made the 200th start of his San Jose career against the Houston Dynamo on March 17.

GENERAL MANAGER/INTERIM HEAD COACH GAVIN WILKINSON Gavin Wilkinson, a long-time member of the Timbers organization and a former New Zealand international, serves as the club’s general manager; he was appointed on Jan. 18, 2010. On July 9, 2012, Wilkinson was also named interim head coach for the remainder of the 2012 MLS season. He was named coach for the MLS Team of the Week in Week 25. Wilkinson first joined the club as a player for the Timbers’ USL First Division side in 2001, before taking over as the head coach and general manager during the club’s final years in the second division from 2007-10. As head coach, Wilkinson assembled a 50-29-39 record over four seasons in the USL First Division/ USSF Division-2 Pro League and was a two-time USL First Division Coach of the Year (2007, 2009). He guided the club to three postseason berths, including its only semifinals appearances as a second division club in 2007 and 2009. Wilkinson is also a two-time recipient of the FieldTurf Coach of the Year for the USL First Division (2007, 2009). He led the Timbers to one of the best seasons in USL First Division history in 2009, which included a record-setting, 24-game unbeaten streak and winning the Commissioner’s Cup. The Timbers set a new single-season, league record with a 24-game unbeaten streak (14-0-10), surpassing the previous mark of 15 games set in 2005. The club’s record-setting streak also ranks among the longest in U.S. Soccer history. During the 2009 campaign, the Timbers scored a league-high 45 goals, shared the lead for the fewest goals allowed (19), and posted a league-best 6-1-8 record on the road. Finishing in first place at 16-4-10 (58pts), Portland was awarded the Commissioner’s Cup as the league’s regular-season champion and earned a berth into the USL First Division semifinals. In his first season at the helm in 2007, the Timbers advanced to their first USL First Division semifinals and set several USL franchise records, including fewest goals allowed in a single season (18) and shutouts in a single season (14). Over his four seasons as head coach, Wilkinson oversaw 39 shutouts in 118 regular-season matches and had two different goalkeepers win Goalkeeper of the Year honors. Wilkinson’s 13-year professional playing career included time with clubs in six different countries, including Portugal, Ireland, Hong Kong, Singapore and Australia. He joined the re-born Timbers for their inaugural USL First Division season in 2001 and played in each of the club’s first six seasons and was a player/assistant coach from 2005-06. He finished his career ranked among the Timbers’ USL franchise career leaders in games (124) and minutes played (10,181). A New Zealand native, Wilkinson earned 38 caps with the New Zealand National Team and competed in the 1999 and 2003 FIFA Confederations Cups. WALLACE GOAL HELPS TIMBERS DRAW SOUNDERS FC Defender Rodney Wallace scored a second-half equalizer to help the Portland Timbers to a comeback 1-1 draw with Cascadia-rival Seattle Sounders FC at JELD-WEN Field on Sept. 15. Portland goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts and midfielders Diego Chara and Franck Songo’o all left the match in the second half due to injury. After a scoreless first half, Montero scored his third career MLS goal against the Timbers, lashing home a long goal kick from Sounders FC goalkeeper Michael Gspurning in the 57th minute to give Seattle the initial advantage moments after Portland sent on goalkeeper Joe Bendik for the injured Ricketts. Bendik made two imperative saves to help keep the Timbers within striking distance and the team capitalized with the game-tying goal from a 78th-minute set piece. Jack Jewsbury recorded his fourth assist of the season when his corner was met by a leaping Wallace, whose downward header slipped through a crowded goal box and into the net. The draw keeps Portland unbeaten atop the Cascadia Cup standings with eight points from four games.

PORTLAND TIMBERS AT SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 19, 2012 TIMBERS VS. EARTHQUAKES IN THE MLS ERA The Timbers and Earthquakes meet for the fourth time in MLS play on Wednesday in the second of three 2012 regular-season matchups. It will be Portland’s only visit to Buck Shaw Stadium as the final game of the season series between the two clubs, which also serves as the final regular-season match for both sides, will be played at JELD-WEN Field on Oct. 27. Earlier this season forward Danny Mwanga and captain Jack Jewsbury scored their first goals of the season as the Timbers defeated the MLS-leading San Jose Earthquakes 2-1 at JELD-WEN Field on July 3. Mwanga finished off a 29th-minute counter-attack and Jewsbury, playing at right back, prodded home a loose ball in the 59th minute to give Portland a two-goal advantage. Former second-division Timbers forward Alan Gordon pulled one back for San Jose in the 74th minute. In 2011, the Timbers took first-half leads in both matches against the Earthquakes, but were pegged back each time in a pair of 1-1 draws. In the first MLS meeting on Aug. 6, forward Kenny Cooper gave the Timbers a lead in the 23rd minute on the road at Buck Shaw Stadium only to have Gordon equalize for the Earthquakes in the 67th minute. The two sides played to the same result 46 days later on Sept. 21 at JELD-WEN Field. Cooper gave the Timbers an early ninth-minute lead, scoring off a Darlington Nagbe cross before Khari Stephenson ended Portland’s 2011 season-high, 342-minute shutout streak with the leveler in the 70th minute. Portland and San Jose also met in a U.S. Open Cup play-in match on May 3, 2011, at JELD-WEN Field, with the Earthquakes’ Ike Opara netting the decisive goal in the final seconds of overtime in a 1-0 San Jose win. PORTLAND-SAN JOSE HISTORY HAS NASL ROOTS Portland and San Jose are two of only four current MLS clubs (Seattle and Vancouver the others) to have revived their original NASL monkiers. Dating back to 1975, the Timbers first season as a professional club, Portland and San Jose played one another at least twice a year until both organizations folded in 1982. The Timbers and Earthquakes squared off 18 times in the original NASL, with Portland eventually claiming a 12-6 overall record, including a 7-3 mark at San Jose’s Spartan Stadium. The largest margin of victory for either side in those days was a 5-0 home win for the Timbers in 1978. Timbers Ring of Honor inductees John Bain, Clyde Best and Dale Mitchell each scored four goals against San Jose during the Timbers’ NASL era - tops among NASL Timbers players. TIMBERS EXTEND HOME SELLOUT STREAK TO 32 MATCHES The Timbers extended their home sellout streak to 32 matches with a sellout crowd of 20,438 at JELD-WEN Field for the club’s 1-1 draw with Seattle Sounders FC on Sept. 15. The Timbers have sold out every home league match since joining MLS in 2011. A PLACE TO CALL HOME After spending the first three weeks of their inaugural 2011 MLS campaign on the road, the final stages of renovation work at JELD-WEN Field were completed in time for the Timbers to debut their impressively refurbished home on a national stage. The Timbers, in front of sold-out crowds of 18,627, scored seven goals on their way to opening up the stadium with a pair of wins over the Chicago Fire and FC Dallas in mid-April. JELD-WEN Field underwent a $40 million renovation that transformed the iconic downtown Portland venue into one of the most unique and intimate soccer venues in North America. JELD-WEN Field improvements include the addition of a new eastside seating section that houses the new KeyBank Club and premium club seats, the Widmer Brothers Southern Front deck behind the south goal that provides unique vantage points for casual group seating, a state-of-the-art video board that features high-definition technology for an enhanced fan experience and a FieldTurf playing surface well-suited for the variety of sporting and community events that are featured each year at JELD-WEN Field. Phase I of construction, which included foundation work for the new eastside seats, began in early 2010, while renovation on a larger scale began on Sept. 7, 2010, following the end of the seconddivision season. JELD-WEN Field was originally constructed in 1926 and has undergone a number of transformations over the years. The stadium has housed numerous memorable events over the course of its 85-year life, including presidential visits, an Elvis Presley performance in 1957, Pele’s last official game as a professional and the 2003 Women’s World Cup. It was home to the NASL Timbers from 1975-82 and most recently served as the home grounds for the USL Timbers from 2001-10.
SCOUTING THE EARTHQUAKES San Jose sit in first place in the Western Conference eight points clear of secondplace Seattle and also lead the race for the MLS Supporters’ Shield by five points over Sporting Kansas City. The Earthquakes have the best overall and home goaldifferential in the league at +25 and +21 respectively. The team is riding its fourth three-game win streak of the season and kept a clean sheet in each of its last two matches. San Jose hasn’t been shutout for nine straight games and has been kept off the board only once at home all season, by Houston on March 17. The 1-0 loss to the Dynamo early in the season is the only blemish on San Jose’s home record as the team has gone 10-1-3 at home and 9-0-3 at Buck Shaw Stadium (the loss to Houston came at AT&T Park). The Earthquakes boast an MLS-best four 2012 All-Stars, including the league’s leading goal-scorer Chris Wondolowski, who has 19 goals this term. Augmenting San Jose’s attack are former Timbers second-division striker Alan Gordon (12 goals) and forward Steven Lenhart (eight goals) as well as midfielder Simon Dawkins (seven goals). Honduran midfielder Marvin Chavez leads the team with nine assists while Earthquakes captain Ramiro Corrales has eight. At the back, all-stars Justin Morrow (2,430) and Steven Beitashour (2,415) lead the team in minutes played and have helped the club secure seven clean sheets in league play. In goal, MLS veteran Jon Busch’s 1.18 goals-against average is tied for third in MLS among goalkeepers who have played 25 games or more. GROUP GOALS With his goal against Seattle Sounders FC on Sept. 15, Portland midfielder/defender Rodney Wallace became the 13th player to score for the Timbers this season, giving the club one more goal scorer than it had in its inaugural 2011 season. Of the 25 players to score for the Timbers in their two MLS seasons, only five players have scored in both: Wallace, Eric Brunner, Bright Dike, Darlington Nagbe and Jack Jewsbury. The team has spread the goals around different positions this season with three forwards (Dike, Kris Boyd and Danny Mwanaga), four midfielders (Nagbe, Kalif Alhassan, Franck Songo’o and Sal Zizzo) and four defenders (Brunner, David Horst, Andrew Jean-Baptiste and Kosuke Kimura) all netting goals for the club. Wallace scored while playing at left back, but has seen the bulk of his playing time in midfield. Likewise, one of Jewsbury’s two goals came while he was playing right back although he has primarily played as a midfielder this year. TIMBERS PLAYER MILESTONES Goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts marked his 100th MLS game against Seattle on Sept. 15; he is only the 20th MLS goalkeeper to reach a century of league games played. Ricketts is 17 saves away from recording 300 in his MLS career. Forward Danny Mwanga could make his 75th MLS regular-season appearance if he features for Portland against San Jose, while Timbers captain Jack Jewsbury will mark the 200th regular-season start of his MLS career should he start against the Earthquakes. Jewsbury became the first player to surpass 5,000 minutes played for the MLS club on Sept. 5 and has played a total of 5,105 minutes in 58 matches (57 starts) for Portland. With his next goal, Darlington Nagbe will tie Jewsbury as Portland’s all-time MLS goal-scoring leader with nine goals. Nagbe’s next goal will tie him with striker Kris Boyd as Portland’s scoring leader this season; Boyd has recorded 15 points from seven goals and an assist in his first season with the club. LEAGUE POOL GOALKEEPER SCOTT ANGEVINE ADDED TO ROSTER Due to injuries to goalkeepers Donovan Ricketts and Jake Gleeson over the weekend, the Timbers have added league pool goalkeeper Scott Angevine to the roster. Angevine, 23, was recently with the Columbus Crew, serving as the backup during a 2-1 win over Philadelphia on Aug. 29, and has also spent time with Sporting KC this season. The Overland Park, Kansas, native played the final three seasons of his collegiate career (2009-11) at Coastal Carolina University, where he was a two-time All-Big South first-team selection and set a school record with 16 shutouts. A LONG-AWAITED DEBUT Timbers forward Jose Valencia made his club debut in Portland’s 3-2 MLS Reserve League triumph over Seattle Sounders FC Reserves on Sept. 16. Eight months after undergoing surgery to remove damaged cartilage in his left knee, Valencia took the next step in his rehabilitation by playing in the MLS Reserve League match. During his 20 minutes on the field, Valencia forced Sounders FC goalkeeper Josh Ford into a difficult save at his near post. Regarded as one of Colombia’s top young players, Valencia was acquired by the Timbers on Dec. 15, 2011. He made his professional debut at the age of 16 and played four seasons (2008-11) for Colombian first-division club Independiente Santa Fe.
PORTLAND TIMBERS AT SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 19, 2012 TIMBERS RESERVES CONCLUDE MLS RESERVE LEAGUE SEASON WITH A WIN The Portland Timbers Reserves finished their 2012 MLS Reserve League season on a winning note by defeating Seattle Sounders FC Reserves 3-2 at JELD-WEN Field on Sept. 16. The Timbers Reserves (4-5-1, 13pts) scored all three goals within the first 15 minutes of play and saw Jose Valencia debut for the club as a 70th-minute substitute as his rehab continues apace after undergoing knee surgery in February. The Timbers Reserves got on the board less than five minutes in when Kris Boyd looped the ball toward the penalty spot where it fell to Mike Fucito, who volleyed a low-lined shot through a crowd to give Portland a 1-0 lead. Four minutes later, midfielder Kalif Alhassan played a through ball to Boyd and the Timbers striker chipped it home to extend the advantage. The third goal for the Timbers Reserves came in the 15th minute when midfielder Eric Alexander played defender Ian Hogg down the left side. Hogg’s cross was deflected at the penalty spot and set up perfectly for Brent Richards, who rounded Sounders FC goalkeeper Josh Ford before placing his shot into the back of the net to make the score 3-0. Sounders FC Academy players Jordan Morris and Isidro Prado-Huerta grabbed second-half strikes in the 49th and 78th minutes, respectively, but the Timbers Reserves held firm to secure the win. DIKE NAMED TO USL PRO ALL-LEAGUE SECOND TEAM While playing in only 10 games while on loan with the L.A. Blues of USL PRO, Timbers forward Bright Dike made a direct impact with the club, and was named to the USL PRO All-League Second Team. Dike scored six goals and added two assists in his time with the Blues, which stretched from May until July 10. Since being recalled, Dike has scored two goals, including his first career game-winner Aug. 31 against Colorado, in five games with the Timbers this season. NAGBE LISTED ON “24 UNDER 24” LIST FOR SECOND STRAIGHT YEAR Timbers midfielder/forward Darlington Nagbe made MLSsoccer.com’s “24 Under 24” list of the best young players in the league, slotting in at No. 15; he was voted No. 13 in the fan poll. Nagbe is second on the Timbers in scoring this season with six goals and one assist. He was listed at No. 10 in the 2011 edition of “24 Under 24.” NAGBE A CANDIDATE FOR CUSTOM COVER OF FIFA Soccer 13 EA Sports and MLSsoccer.com have teamed up to create custom covers for the 2013 edition of the videogame FIFA Soccer.
