US Open Cup: Timbers Knock Off Goats

At Portland, Oregon:

Jack Jewsbury (84') and Eric Brunner (86') provided the late scoring that carried the Portland Timbers to a 2-0 home win over Chivas USA in a play-in game for a berth in the qualifying rounds of this year's US Open Cup tournament.  The Timbers will take on the San Jose Earthquakes on the road on a date to be determined.

It was Portland's first victory in any competitive match since joining Major League Soccer.
