Quakes Foil Timbers Comeback At Santa Clara

At Santa Clara, California:

Goals from Victor Bernardez (PK-55') and Steven Lenhart (58') enabled the San Jose Earthquakes to hold off the visiting Portland Timbers 2-1 in Saturday night Major League Soccer action, despite finishing the contest with ten men (they lost Marvin Chavez, whose second yellow card in the space of two minutes resulted in a red-card ejection in the 86th minute).

Darlington Nagbe scored the lone Portland goal in the 84th minute.

The Timbers will play host to the Vancouver Whitecaps in a Cascadia Cup clash this coming Saturday at 8:00 PM Pacific Time.
