Portland Timbers Newcomers Velde, Rojas Connect for Goal in Win over Red Bulls

- The Portland Timbers defeated the New York Red Bulls 2-1 on Saturday night at Providence Park, ending a home winless streak.

- New signings Kristoffer Velde and Matias Rojas played key roles, with Rojas scoring a header and Velde assisting the first goal before his offside call.
- In the 73rd minute, Antony netted the decisive goal off a Juan Mosquera assist, bringing his season total—and his tally with the Timbers—to eight.
