Mustafa Abed, the inspirational teen who spent the last year in Portland receiving treatment for a prosthetic leg following a war injury in Iraq when he was only two, visited Providence Park last week to simply say thanks.
Now a soccer loving teen, Abed had many visits with the club having attended Timbers training last spring, witnessing Portland’s 1-0 triumph over Seattle Sounders FC in the historic 100th meeting between the clubs, watching a number of Thorns FC games and the club also invited them to Atlanta as a special guest to see the Timbers in the 2018 MLS Cup.
