Week 27 saw terrific performances worthy of recognition in the Team of the Week presented by Audi with three coming from Portland Timbers midfielders.


Portland Timbers midfielder Diego Valeri's last-minute assist on Brian Fernandez's game-winning header plus Diego Chara's gut-busting run upfield to tee up Jeremy Ebobisse's tying goal put the pair on the TOTW Week XI, while fellow midfielder Eryk Williamson's incredibly strong play in the center of the pitch snagged him a spot on the TOTW bench.

Coach: Dome Torrent (NYC)


Bench: Stefan Frei (SEA), Lamine Sane (ORL), Andrew Farrell (NE), Keegan Rosenberry (COL), Eryk Williamson (POR), Latif Blessing (LAFC), Alejandro Pozuelo (TOR)
