KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) Daniel Salloi scored his first career MLS goal in the second half and Sporting Kansas City remained unbeaten at home with a 1-1 draw with the Portland Timbers on Saturday night.

Salloi’s goal was the only shot on target for Sporting KC (8-4-7), which leads the Western Conference and is 6-0-3 at home.
