Goals & Saves: Portland Timbers @ Sporting Kansas City - April 27, 2013

Ryan Johnson, Timbers @ SKC, 4.27.13

1' - Only :42 seconds into the match, KC's Chance Myers heads in a goal from a long Matt Besler throw-in.







25' - But the Timbers come storming back. After some sustained offensive pressure, forward Ryan Johnson heads in a perfectly placed corner from Diego Valeri to make it 1-1.







29' - Chance Myers strikes again for only his second career MLS goal to make it 2-1. Goal came via a Sporting set piece outside the box.







33' - Not to be outdone, the Timbers strike again to make it 2-2. Valeri feeds a beautiful ball to a streaking Ryan Johnson. Johnson beats his defender in a footrace before cutting it back to wide open Darlington Nagbe. Nagbe balletically taps it in.







58' - After some spectacular work by Diego Chara in the midfield, he slides the ball to an onrushing Rodney Wallace. Wallace goes in free and scores to make it 3-2.







Then, in stoppage time, Donovan Ricketts has a game-saving and potential MLS Save of the Week stop on a last gasp Aurelien Collin header.
