#SKCvPOR: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting Kansas City returns home for their final match at Children’s Mercy Park in 2019 this weekend when the side hosts the Portland Timbers on Sunday night. Sporting was eliminated from postseason contention following Wednesday’s 2-1 loss at Minnesota United, but can still play spoiler against Portland and FC Dallas in the final two weeks of the season. Sporting KC is 7-4-4 all-time against the Timbers in the regular season, and have lost just three of their last 14 matches in all competitions against the Oregon-based side. Sporting fell to a late 2-1 defeat in the match at Providence Park on Sept. 7, 2019, as Jeremy Ebobisse and Brian Fernandez tallied late to overturn Benny Feilhaber’s opener. In 2018, Sporting took the regular-season series 1-0-1 following a scoreless draw at Providence Park on June 9, before claiming a commanding 3-0 victory at Children’s Mercy Park on Aug. 18. A first-half brace from Diego Rubio put Sporting in the drivers’ seat, before Johnny Russell put the exclamation point on the result late in the match. The two sides met once again in the postseason in the Western Conference Championship. Sporting played to a 0-0 draw in the First Leg at Providence Park on Nov. 25 before returning home for the decisive leg on Nov. 29. Despite a dominant first half that saw SKC take the lead through Daniel Salloi, Portland struck three times in the second half through Sebastian Blanco and Diego Valeri (2) to claim a 3-2 win despite Gerso Fernandes’ late goal to advance to MLS Cup. #SKCvPOR: Recent Meetings (SKC leads 7-4-4 in regular season)

Sporting KC Game Notes | September 29, 2019 vs. Portland Timbers | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

PENULTIMATE GAME SLATED FOR SUNDAY

AWARD WINNERS HONORED AT PITCH BLACK

Sporting Kansas City is in the midst of a four-game losing streak for the first time this season following defeats to the Portland Timbers (Sept. 7), the LA Galaxy (Sept. 15), the Colorado Rapids (Sept. 21) and Minnesota United FC (Sept. 25) - coming on the heels of a three-game home winning streak from Aug. 17-31. Sporting were mathematically eliminated from postseason contention following Wednesday’s loss at Allianz Field, as the side trails the seventh and final playoff spot by eight points with only six left up for grabs.

Sporting KC’s annual awards night, Pitch Black, was held on Friday night at Children’s Mercy Park, with award winners named for multiple categories: • Most Valuable Player, presented by Audi: Felipe Gutierrez • Offensive Player of the Year, presented by Ivy Investments: Johnny Russell • Defensive Player of the Year, presented by Fire Door Solutions: Tim Melia • Goal of the Year, presented by Heartland Coca-Cola: Benny Feilhaber at POR

Sporting will feel a sense of missed opportunity over the course of the current four-game losing streak, as Peter Vermes’ side took the lead in each of those four matches. It’s the first time in MLS history that any team has taken the lead and conspired to lose four consecutive matches. In addition to taking the lead on Wednesday, Sporting also spurned multiple chances to add to their tally - forcing Minnesota goalkeeper Vito Mannone into seven saves on the night while also rattling the woodwork on two occasions through Ilie Sanchez and Gianluca Busio.

Sporting will also honored Ilie Sanchez and Daniel Salloi with the Humanitarian of the Year award, while Felipe Hernandez was named Swope Park Rangers MVP, Brandt Betts was named Academy Player of the Year and Sporting St. Louis was named Sporting Club Network Member of the Year. In 2018, Ilie Sanchez was named Most Valuable Player, Johnny Russell was voted Offensive Player of the Year, Tim Melia and Graham Zusi split the Defensive Player of the Year title, Felipe Gutierrez was named Newcomer of the Year, while Yohan Croizet’s Open Cup stunner against Dallas was named Goal of the Year.

Wednesday night’s defeat to the Loons extended Sporting’s non-tying streak to 17 games - dating back to a 2-2 draw with Toronto on June 7. Since that draw, Sporting has gone 7-10-0 in regular-season play, setting a new record for the longest run of games without a draw in club history.

RUSSELL CLOSING IN ON HISTORY

Sporting Kansas City winger Johnny Russell recorded another assist on Botond Barath’s opening goal in Wednesday night’s 2-1 defeat to Minnesota United FC at Allianz Field. It was Russell’s eighth assist of the campaign in MLS regular-season play, putting him on nine goals and eight assists on the year.

Sporting will now have the opportunity to play spoiler in their final two matches of the season, starting on Sunday when the side hosts the Portland Timbers at Children’s Mercy Park. Portland’s standing in the playoff chase is precarious, as Gio Savarese’s men are just one point above the playoff line in a tie for sixth place.

Should Russell tally one more goal and two more assists over the final two matches of the season, he would join club legend Preki as just the second player in team history to record double digit goals and assists in consecutive seasons. The aforementioned Preki notched double digit goals and assists in three straight campaigns from 1996-1998. Russell finished his debut season in Kansas City with exactly 10 goals and 10 assists in 2018.

SPORTING SET FOR FINAL HOME GAME OF 2019

Sporting Kansas City returns home for the club’s final home game of the 2019 season on Sunday as the Portland Timbers visit Children’s Mercy Park. Sporting will close out the campaign on the road at FC Dallas on Sunday, Oct. 6. Sporting has a strong 7-4-4 record against the Timbers in the regular season, but fell to defeat earlier this month in a 2-1 loss at Providence Park on Sept. 7.

Scotsman Russell has been a revelation since joining Kansas City ahead of the 2018 season, recording 21 goals and 23 assists in 69 competitive appearances across all competitions. That includes two hat tricks coming in sensational performances against Vancouver Whitecaps FC on April 20, 2018 and Seattle Sounders FC on May 26, 2019.

Benny Feilhaber gave Sporting the lead in that match, only for the Timbers to fight back and score twice in the closing stages as Jeremy Ebobisse equalized in the 83rd minute before substitute Brian Fernandez notched the winner in the fourth minute of second-half stoppage time.

BARATH BAGS FIRST SKC GOAL

Sporting Kansas City center back Botond Barath opened the scoring in Wednesday’s 2-1 defeat to Minnesota United FC at Allianz Field with his first goal for the club since arriving this past offseason from his hometown team, Budapest Honved FC. Barath got on the end of Johnny Russell’s teasing delivery and prodded the ball beyond goalkeeper Vito Mannone and into the back of the net.

In 2018, Sporting took the regular-season series with a 1-0-1 record. Following a 0-0 draw at Providence Park on June 9, Sporting made light work of the Timbers in the return fixture at CMP on Aug. 18 - cruising to a 3-0 win behind Diego Rubio’s brace and Johnny Russell’s late insurance goal.

Barath, 27, now has a goal and an assist on the season for Sporting in all competitions, having also set up Krisztian Nemeth’s game-winner against Club Atletico Independiente in the Concacaf Champions League Quarterfinals Second Leg back on March 14. Barath has started 20 of 22 appearances in 2019 for Sporting KC across all competitions, while he also missed time over the summer with a back injury.

However, the Timbers had the last laugh as Gio Savarese’s side dumped Sporting out of the MLS Cup Playoffs in the Western Conference Championship, overcoming a secondleg deficit to top Sporting 3-2 at Children’s Mercy Park following a 0-0 draw in the first leg at Providence Park.

OFFICIALLY ELIMINATED

Sporting Kansas City was officially eliminated from postseason contention with Wednesday night’s 2-1 setback against Minnesota United FC at Allianz Field. It pulls the curtain on Sporting’s club-record eight-year streak of participation in the MLS Cup Playoffs, as the side can no longer finish any higher than eighth place in the Western Conference standings.

The Hungarian international has cemented himself as a fulltime starter for his country since joining Sporting, earning five of his eight caps to date since heading across the Atlantic last December.

RANGERS THREE-GAME UNBEATEN STREAK SNAPPED

In the midst of a difficult season in the USL Championship, the Swope Park Rangers recently embarked on a three-game unbeaten streak to climb off the foot of the overall USL Championship standings. However, that streak came to a halt with a 4-1 defeat on the road at Loudoun United FC on Wednesday night.

Sporting’s eight-year postseason streak was tied for the fourth longest in the league’s history, with only Seattle Sounders FC (11 straight, 2009-2019), New York Red Bulls (10 straight, 2010-2019) and the LA Galaxy (10 straight, 1996-2005) bettering Sporting KC’s recently snapped streak. Sporting last missed the MLS Cup Playoffs in 2010, meaning that the side had participated in the postseason every year since the club rebranded to Sporting Kansas City and moved into Children’s Mercy Park.

The Rangers are 2-1-1 over their last three contests, posting shutouts in three of the four contests. The Rangers saw out a 0-0 draw with the Charleston Battery at home on Sept. 11 before topping playoff-bound North Carolina FC at Children’s Mercy Park 1-0 on Sept. 14. The Rangers continued that fine form with their first road win of the season - cruising to a 3-0 victory over the Charlotte Independence on Saturday night.

SPORTING PARTS WAYS WITH CROIZET

Sporting Kansas City and midfielder Yohan Croizet have mutually agreed to part ways, the club announced on Monday. Croizet had not appeared for the club since the July 26 match against New York City FC at Yankee Stadium.

Key to the recent run has been Sporting KC Academy forward Wilson Harris who has four goals in his last three games and seven goals in his last eight appearances. The 19-year-old continued his fine form on Wednesday, netting a first-half penalty to momentarily make the score 1-1 before Loudoun pulled back ahead.

Croizet recorded three goals and two assists in 20 MLS matches this season. The 27-year-old Frenchman ends his two-year stint at Sporting with eight goals and five assists in 62 competitive appearances after arriving from KV Mechelen in the Belgian top flight in late 2017.

This current mini-run of form puts the Rangers at 5-17-7 (22 points) on the season, sharing a spot on the foot of the Eastern Conference with Hartford Athletic, but two points ahead of the Tacoma Defiance in the West. Wednesday’s loss to Loudoun officially put an end to any ambitious playoff hopes for the Rangers, as the side is now 17 points outside of a postseason berth with only 15 points left up for grabs.

“We appreciate Yohan’s service to the club over the last two seasons and wish him the best of luck moving forward,” Sporting KC Manager and Sporting Director Peter Vermes said in a statement on Monday.

Sporting KC Game Notes | September 29, 2019 vs. Portland Timbers | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes MLS ANNOUNCES ST. LOUIS EXPANSION

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

2026 WORLD CUP HEADING TO NORTH AMERICA

Major League Soccer Commissioner Don Garber officially announced on Aug. 20 that MLS has awarded an expansion team to the city of St. Louis. The team will begin MLS play in 2022 in a new soccer stadium located in the Downtown West district of St. Louis.

The United Bid of Canada, Mexico, and the United States was selected to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup on Wednesday, June 13, 2018 by the 68th FIFA Congress in Moscow. Kansas City is one of 23 Candidate Host Cities in the United Bid.

The owners of the St. Louis club include Enterprise Holdings Foundation president Carolyn Kindle Betz and six other female members of the Taylor family, making it the first female majority-owned club in MLS history, and one of few in professional sports. The ownership group is completed by Enterprise Holdings executive chairman Andy Taylor, and World Wide Technology CEO Jim Kavanaugh.

The vote, which occurred a day before the start of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, also marks the first time three nations have been selected to co-host a FIFA World Cup and the first time the FIFA World Cup will be played in North America in 32 years. The United Bid offers FIFA and its 211 Member Associations unity, certainty, and opportunity as they prepare to host the largest FIFA World Cup in history.

With the announcement comes an exciting opportunity for Kansas City and St. Louis to fuel their long-standing sports rivalry. Separated by 250 miles on Interstate-70, Sporting has faced USL Championship side Saint Louis FC once: claiming a 1-0 victory in the U.S. Open Cup at Children’s Mercy Park in 2015.

With the FIFA Congress decision to award the 2026 FIFA World Cup, to the federations of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, the three nations will jointly manage preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup until FIFA establishes their operations to manage the competition. Among other decisions, FIFA will make the final selection of host cities for the 2026 competition from the 23 candidates proposed in the United Bid.

Sporting has taken the field in St. Louis for exhibition matches during the club’s early days and later for a 2009 SuperLiga match against Mexican side Atlas.

Each of the United Bid’s 23 proposed stadiums are fully built, occupied and operational, ensuring long-term use following the 2026 World Cup. The United Bid has 150 existing world-class training facilities, millions of hotel rooms, and advanced infrastructure. The United Bid is expected to generate more than $14 billion in revenue and $11 billion in profits for FIFA, which will be shared with the 211 FIFA Member Associations, helping further develop and expand the game of football across the globe.

VERMES IN MIDST OF 11th SEASON

Now in his 11th season at the helm of Sporting KC, Manager and Sporting Director Peter Vermes continues to guide his side in 2019. Vermes is the longest tenured coach that is currently in charge of a team in MLS, having led Sporting KC since 2009 - one year longer than Ben Olsen has been at the helm at D.C. United. Vermes became the longest tenured coach in MLS when then LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena took the U.S. National Team job in late 2016.

PLAYOFF STREAK COMES TO AN END

In 2019, Sporting KC saw its historic playoff run come to an end after eight straight years in the postseason. LONGEST MLS PLAYOFF STREAKS Club Seasons Seattle Sounders FC 11 (2009-2019) *active LA Galaxy 10 (1996-2005) New York Red Bulls 10 (2010-2019) *active Sporting KC 8 (2011-2018) LA Galaxy 8 (2009-2016) NE Revolution 8 (2002-2009) Real Salt Lake 7 (2008-2014)

With almost 10 years of service at Sporting KC, Vermes is one of the longest serving managers in world soccer. Among all 18 leagues with an average attendance of 10,000+, Vermes ranks second, only behind 2. Bundesliga side FC Heidenheim’s Frank Schmidt (Sept. 17, 2007 - present). Among the top 51 leagues in the world as denoted by the CIES Football Observatory, Vermes’ tenure at Sporting KC ranks as the fifth longest active run. Vermes has guided Sporting KC to four titles under his watch, winning three Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups in 2012, 2015 and 2017, and the MLS Cup in 2013. His trophy haul ranks as the second highest among active MLS coaches - only trailing Toronto FC’s Greg Vanney’s five championships. On a local level, Vermes’ 11 years with SKC is the second longest tenure by a head coach in the history of major KC professional sports behind Super Bowl champion and Pro Football Hall of Famer Hank Stram, who was Chiefs head coach from 1963-1974.

Vermes has compiled a 178-135-101 record in all competitions with Sporting KC, including a remarkable 20-7-3 mark in U.S. Open Cup contests. Vermes’ 143 wins in MLS regular-season action ranks fifth all-time and second among active coaches in MLS, trailing Los Angeles FC’s Bob Bradley.

VERMES VERBATIM

RECORD-SETTING 2018

See below for comments from Sporting KC Manager and Sporting Director Peter Vermes following the 2-1 loss to Minnesota United FC at Allianz Field on Sept. 25.

Sporting Kansas City enjoyed a historic 2018 season that saw the club set new records in multiple attacking categories. Most notably, the club shattered the franchise’s all-time goalscoring record by tallying 65 goals in 34 games, eclipsing the 61 goals the then Kansas City Wizards tallied in their inaugural season in 1996.

Thoughts on the game: “You’re going to expect that a team is going to push like that at the end of the game and go for the win like they did. I’m not saying that we should give up two goals by any means, but I will tell you that we should’ve scored four or five goals. It just puts the pressure on the team. As much as I think that we’ve given up a bunch of bad goals this season, I think that the biggest thing is that we’ve had a ton of chances in a lot of games where we could be up, and we’ve just shot ourselves in the foot. When you miss those chances, you play differently. When you’re up 1-0 or 2-0, it’s a different game from the other team. We’ve done that way too many times this season, and then late giving up the goals like we have, then you lose confidence in trying to close out a game. The bottom line is we’ve had more than enough chances to close the game out tonight, and we didn’t, and that’s been the story of this season. No doubt we’ve given up a lot of silly goals, but there have been a lot of chances where we haven’t scored, and that’s put a lot of pressure on the team. As far as play and the way we played in the game and chances, all of that’s good, but that doesn’t get you the three points that it should. I think it’s a big lesson from the season, because it’s not like we’ve only had one game where we’ve missed too many chances, it’s been far too many games this season.”

As well as their overall goalscoring exploits, Sporting Kansas City also set new club records in five other offensive categories: Road Goals (31), Goal Difference (+25), Assists (69), Shots (583) and Corner Kicks (206). Peter Vermes’ side also found multiple goals in 25 of the club’s 40 matches in all competitions last season and was only shutout seven times. Sporting KC finished the regular season as the fourth highest scoring team in MLS with 65 goals, while the side scored 79 goals when including the MLS Cup Playoffs and U.S. Open Cup play. Sporting had 16 different goalscorers last year in MLS play - which was tied for the second highest number of goalscorers across a single squad this season. In 2018, SKC found goals from Daniel Salloi (14), Johnny Russell (10), Diego Rubio (10), Felipe Gutierrez (7), Gerso Fernandes (6), Ilie Sanchez (5), Ike Opara (3), Yohan Croizet (3), Roger Espinoza (3), Khiry Shelton (2), Graham Zusi (2), Jimmy Medranda (2), Cristian Lobato (2), Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal (1), Krisztian Nemeth (1) and Gianluca Busio (1).

On how well the defense held up tonight for the first 70 minutes: “The defense was great, don’t get me wrong. That’s why I said overall we were fantastic. We really were. I mean defensively, we were tremendous. They have a very potent team going forward. When you don’t score like that when you’re playing away from home, you can pull those games out and win 1-0, because the other team just can’t find it, but in this situation we gave up way too many opportunities by not scoring the ones we created. That’s where the difference in the game was.”

The 6-0 triumph over Vancouver Whitecaps FC on April 20, 2018 tied club records for largest margin of victory and most goals scored in a competitive match. Sporting KC finished the year with 65 goals in 34 regular-season matches, having scored 40 in all of 2017. The last time Sporting KC hit six goals in an MLS match was on June 20, 1999.

Sporting KC Game Notes | September 29, 2019 vs. Portland Timbers | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes Manager | Peter Vermes

Assistant Coach | Kerry Zavagnin Assistant Coach Kerry Zavagnin first joined Kansas City in 2000 as a holding midfielder and was an integral part of the club’s midfield for the next nine seasons, during which time he helped lead the Wizards to MLS Cup (2000) and U.S. Open Cup (2004) Championships. He was named to the MLS All-Star team and the Best XI in 2004. Zavagnin’s primary duties as an assistant include scouting, developing Sporting Kansas City’s younger players, breaking down film and assisting with training sessions, among others.

Peter Vermes is in his 11th season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2019 and is the longest-tenured active head coach in MLS. He is the team’s longest-serving manager and his 178 coaching victories in all competitions are the most club history. During his tenure, he has won four major trophies – the 2012, 2015 and 2017 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups and the 2013 MLS Cup championship – and finished atop the Eastern Conference regularseason standings in 2011 and 2012, as well as the Western Conference in 2018. His three U.S. Open Cup championships are the third most in Open Cup history. He is the first coach in club history to lead Sporting KC to eight straight postseason appearances, as well as the only person to ever win the MLS Cup as both a player and a coach with the same team. His 143 regular-season wins top the club’s all-time chart and rank fifth most in MLS history. He passed his former coach Bob Gansler as the winningest manager in team history with a 3-1 win over Real Salt Lake on Aug. 12, 2015, his 109th victory in all competitions.

He started his professional career with the New York/New Jersey MetroStars, where he played in 39 games over two seasons. After spending one season with the Lehigh Valley Steam (USL-1), Zavagnin came to Kansas City in 2000. He played 237 games (228 starts) and logged 20,516 minutes for Kansas City, setting team records in both categories before both were overtaken by Matt Besler early in 2018. He scored eight goals and added 22 assists in his nine seasons in Kansas City blue. Zavagnin was named Team Defender of the Year in 2001.

On August 4, 2018, Vermes coached his 302nd MLS regular-season game with Sporting KC, becoming the league’s all-time leader in games coached for one club. He was named the first-ever MLS Sporting Executive of the Year by his peers in 2018. Vermes has coached 414 total games during his Kansas City coaching career, most in club history.

On top of his club success in Kansas City, Zavagnin also appeared 21 times for the United States Men’s National Team. He recorded one assist for the U.S., who went 15-2-4 when Zavagnin featured. He married his wife Mirriam prior to the 2009 season, when he became an assistant coach at the club.

With over 10 years of service at Sporting KC, Vermes is one of the longest serving managers in world soccer. Among all 18 leagues with an average attendance of 10,000+, Vermes ranks second, only behind 2. Bundesliga side FC Heidenheim’s Frank Schmidt (Sept. 17, 2007 – present). Among the top 51 leagues in the world as denoted by the CIES Football Observatory, Vermes’ tenure at Sporting KC ranks as the fifth longest active run.

Assistant Coach | Zoran Savic Assistant Coach Zoran Savic joined Sporting Kansas City late in the 2009 season after a 30-year career at all levels of the game in the United States. A native of Gornji Milanovac, Yugoslavia, Savic began his journey through American soccer with the Buffalo Stallions of the Major Indoor Soccer League in 1980. Savic would go on to star for several MISL teams, with his most prosperous period coming with the Kansas City Comets, with whom he scored 70 goals in just over 100 appearances from 1982-1984.

Vermes oversees all soccer operations for Sporting KC, including the active roster, the Swope Park Rangers (USL Championship) and the Sporting KC Academy. Vermes entered MLS ahead of its inaugural season in 1996 and retired from the league in 2002, closing out his playing career in Kansas City after stints with the New York/New Jersey MetroStars and Colorado Rapids.

After retiring as a player in 1991, Savic turned his attention to coaching in the indoor game. Savic led the Kansas City Attack from 1992-1996, winning Coach of the Year honors for the 1994-1995 season while also serving as the team’s General Manager. Savic later coached the Kansas City Comets from 2000-2005.

Following a standout high school career in which he was named New Jersey Player of the Year, Vermes was a star forward and All-American at Rutgers University. After college, Vermes represented the United States in the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Korea, and was named 1988 Chevrolet U.S. Male Soccer Athlete of the Year for his efforts.

In 2007 Savic switched to the outdoor game, joining Chivas USA as an assistant to then-head coach Preki before moving into the commentary booth for Kansas City matches in 2008 and 2009. Savic’s career as a commentator was cut short, however, when newly installed Manager Peter Vermes tabbed Savic to be part of his coaching staff late in the 2009 season.

Vermes was an integral part of a young U.S. team at the 1990 World Cup in Italy, where he nearly scored against the host Azzurri. It was the first time the U.S. had qualified for the World Cup in 40 years and set the stage for the progress of the U.S. National Team. In 1989 and 1990, Vermes became the first American to play in the Hungarian and Dutch First Divisions, playing for Raba ETO and FC Volendam, respectively. He later spent five years with Figueras of the Spanish Second Division.

Goalkeeper Coach | Alec Dufty Goalkeeper coach Alec Dufty enters his third season with Sporting Kansas City having been introduced to the organization as the Swope Park Rangers goalkeeper coach in the side’s inaugural season in 2016. In his first season working with Sporting KC’s goalkeepers, starting goalkeeper Tim Melia enjoyed a record-breaking season where he was named the 2017 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year.

For MLS’s inaugural season in 1996, Vermes served as captain of the New York/New Jersey MetroStars. In 1997, he was traded to the Colorado Rapids for current Sporting KC Assistant Coach Kerry Zavagnin and played in Denver through the 1999 season, leading the Rapids to the 1997 MLS Cup Final. Vermes joined Kansas City in 2000 for what would be the most successful seasons of his MLS career. During his first year in Kansas City, he anchored one of the best defenses in league history and won MLS Defender of the Year honors in helping lead the Wizards to the 2000 MLS Cup Championship. He retired in 2002 after appearing in 209 MLS matches (including playoffs) and playing more than 18,000 minutes. In 2013, Vermes was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame. Year

A former MLS player, Dufty began his playing career with the New York Red Bulls in 2009, making one appearance before joining the MLS reserve goalkeeper pool. In 2010, Dufty joined USSF D2 Pro League side AC St. Louis, making 30 appearances before returning to MLS with the Chicago Fire in late 2010. He announced his retirement at the conclusion of the 2011 season. Dufty then took to coaching, first working with Florida Gulf Coast University and then the University of Illinois at Chicago. In 2015, Dufty served as goalkeeper coach for Toronto FC II in their inaugural USL season.

BOX SCORE

The Portland Timbers received a second-half brace from Jeremy Ebobbise, earning a 2-2 draw against the New England Revolution at Providence Park on Sept. 25 Key plays In the 22nd minute, Diego Chara won the ball near midfield and played the ball into space for Valeri running down the right side of the field. Valeri dribbled into the box and fired a shot that went just wide of the right post. Jorge Moreira came up with a key block in the 26th minute. New England’s Carles Gil was able to connect with a cross near the edge of the six-yard box, but Moreira got a touch to push the ball wide. One minute later, the Revolution’s Gustavo Bou lined up a free kick from the top of the box on the left side. Bou attempted to curl the ball around the Timbers wall, but the ball took a deflection, forcing Timbers goalkeeper Steve Clark to dive back to his left to get a touch and push the ball wide of the target. Sebastián Blanco unleashed a long-range strike in the 35th minute, sending a left-footed shot toward the right corner of the goal, but Revolution goalkeeper Brad Knighton made a diving stop moving to his left at full extension. The Timbers took a 1-0 lead in the 49th minute. Jorge Villafaña dribbled down the left side of the field and played a pinpoint cross to center of the box for Ebobisse, who deposited a diving header into the back of the net. Off a short corner kick in the 57th minute, Valeri served the ball to Blanco making a run to the right post. Blanco sent a looping header toward the near post that was saved by Knighton. Clark was called into action in the 80th minute when Scott Caldwell hit a dipping volley from distance, but Clark jumped and tipped the ball over the crossbar. The Timbers doubled their lead in the 82nd minute as Ebobisse recorded his second goal of the match. Blanco crossed the ball from the left side to the near post. Ebobisse dove forward and directed the ball with a quick flick off the back of his foot into the net from close range. New England pulled a goal back to make it 2-1 in the 87th minute. Teal Bunbury received a pass running to the edge of the box and slotted a cross to the six-yard back for Bou, who finished near the left post. New England was awarded a penalty kick in the 97th minute after the video assistant referee (VAR) was used to determine the Timbers committed a foul in the box. Gil stepped to the spot and converted the penalty kick to level the match at 2-2.

NOTABLE QUOTES Portland Timbers head coach Giovanni Savarese On the Timbers scoring goals after three games of struggling to find the net… “I think we deserved it today. Played very well. Created chances. Put the ball in the back of the net. I just think that they’re going to make us suffer all the way to the end because today was a very good game. We played well. We moved the ball well. I thought that we did things right. The system was right. The guys performed the plan in a good way. We deserved the three points. I think these three points were stolen from us.” Portland Timbers forward Jeremy Ebobisse On his feeling after the result… “Definitely disappointed. Anytime you give up a goal at the end in a game that you’re in control of, you can’t help but feel disappointed. After seeing how some of the other results went and where we stand in the table, I think we have to remain hopeful. We’ll take the good things out of it and fix the lapses that we had and take it forward because we control our own destiny. We’re in a good spot moving forward still.” On his first goal from Jorge Villafaña’s assist… “I found myself on the right side in the flow of the game. When I saw Jorge breaking down the left side, I knew I wouldn’t be doing my job if I didn’t try to get into the box, so I read Bill’s [Tuiloma] movement. Bill was a little bit ahead of me and I saw the flight of the ball was going to go over him, so I was hoping he knew I was there and didn’t try too hard to get a touch on it and then from there I just committed to the ball. Luckily, I got great contact and it was far enough away from [Brad] Knighton.” Portland Timbers goalkeeper Steve Clark On the team’s belief in making the playoffs… “We’re fine. We’re going to lick our wounds, get back out there and be hungry. I thought it was a great game; it felt like us in a lot of ways. So we’re going to be ready to go on Sunday, I can promise you that.”
