Timbers with five players on 2017 MLS Team of the Week (Wk 15)

Timbers celebrate #2, Timbers vs. Dallas, 6.10.17

Fanendo Adi provided two goals for the Portland Timbers in a win over the weekend, and his strong Week 15 performance earned him a place in the MLS Team of the Week.


Adi's brace–the 13th of his MLS career–gave the Timbers a 2-0 victory at home over FC Dallas, but he was not the only Portland player to impress. Diego Valeri, Dairon Asprilla, Lawrence Olum, and Jake Gleeson also turned in notable shifts during this light week of MLS action, giving the Timbers five players on this week's team. Portland defender Vytas earned a spot on the bench reserves as well.


Note: Team of the Week is voted on by the MLSsoccer.com editorial staff.
