Yimmi Chara and Felipe Mora score for the second straight match to secure back-to-back road victories for the Timbers. Portland beat the Dynamo 2-0, claiming their first MLS victory in Houston.
It’s amazing what a boost of confidence after a derby win will do for you. Coming off the back of a signature win in Seattle, the Portland Timbers posted yet another 2-0 shutout win on the road, this time against the Houston dynamo. A goal from Yimmi Chara would open things in the first half for the Timbers, followed by a well-earned and well-dispatched penalty kick from Felipe Mora.
