Another game, another Portland Timbers player named to the Best XI of the week.
This time defender Bill Tuiloma was named to the MLS Team of the Week. Tuiloma notched the game-winner against Austin FC last Saturday with a powerful, diving header off of a set piece in the second half. His stalwart defending also helped the Timbers earn their first clean sheet of the season, to go along with their first win.
In addition, Timbers midfielder Diego Chara was named to the bench for the TOTW, a recognition for the defensive work he put in in the midfield to keep Austin off the board.
