Match Report
América Rallies Past Timbers 3-1 in Leagues Cup
Club América pulled away from Portland Timbers with a 3-1 win at Providence Park, and it was Brian Rodríguez's early free kick that set the tone for the night. His curling strike in the 5th minute had América dreaming of a quick statement, though the Timbers refused to fold right away.
Kristoffer Velde leveled things up in the 19th minute after pouncing on a shaky moment from goalkeeper Luis Ángel Malagón, sending the two sides in level at the break. América regained control after halftime, with Isaías Violante restoring the lead in the 63rd minute before Óscar Perea capitalized on a Portland turnover to finish on the counter in the 88th. Yellow cards went to Diego Chará and Ramón Juárez, but no one saw red.
The result keeps Club América perfect through two Leagues Cup matches and pushes them firmly toward the knockout rounds, while Portland Timbers now face a tougher road to advance out of the group stage.
