PORTLAND TIMBERS vs MONTRÉAL IMPACT JELD-WEN FIELD, Portland, Ore. March 9, 2013 (WEEK 2, MLS Game #15) 7:30 p.m. PT (KPTV-FOX/Estrella; TVA) Two teams which gave new head coaches buoying results in their season openers meet as the Portland Timbers entertain the Montréal Impact on Saturday evening at Jeld-Wen Field. The Timbers came back from two goals down in their opening match to secure a 3-3 home draw with New York in Caleb Porter’s professional coaching debut. The Impact kicked off their Pacific Northwest swing with a 1-0 win in Seattle, the MLS victory for Marco Schallibaum. REFEREE: Edvin Jurisevic.

LAST YEAR (MLS): 4/28: MTL 2, POR 0 (Corradi 76; Ubiparipovic 84)  This is the only league meeting between the teams this season.  The teams met for the first time in MLS last April at Stade Olympique in Montréal. But the teams met 15 times in the North American second division, between 2001 and 2010, with Portland winning eight and Montreal four (with three draws).  Coaches record: Caleb Porter vs. MTL: first game… Marco Schallibaum vs. POR: first game PORTLAND TIMBERS The Portland Timbers once again came roaring back for a great result to open a season, getting a pair of second-half goals to secure a 3-3 draw with the New York Red Bulls on Sunday afternoon at Jeld-Wen Field. LAST MATCH  The Timbers gave away an early lead after just nine minutes when Portland goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts was unable to control an ill-advised back pass and Fabian Espíndola was right there to pot the easy open-net goal.  But Portland responded quickly. Diego Valeri took a pass from Kalif Alhassan in the area, cleverly volleyed past Olave and slotted a perfectly placed right-footed shot past New York goalkeeper Luis Robles inside the right post in the 14th minute.  The Red Bulls opened up a two-goal lead within a five-minute span. Espíndola finished off a long pass from fullback Kosuke Kimura in the right side of the area in the 24th minute, then Jamison Olave snuck in at the back post to finish off a Heath Pearce pass across the face of goal from a corner kick.  The Timbers pulled a goal in the 56th minute. Valeri hit a screaming blast that forced Robles into a diving save which he could not hold, and Darlington Nagbe swooped in clean it up into the open net. Then the equalizer came in the 83rd minute when Jose Adolfo Valencia's attempted crossing pass from the right bounced off Olave into the goal.  Diego Valeri was given the job to pull the strings in the Timbers midfield by Caleb Porter, with European veteran Mikael Silvestre making his MLS debut in central defense. New signings Will Johnson and Ryan Johnson were also installed in the first XI.  PORTLAND TIMBERS (4-2-1-3): Donovan Ricketts - Ryan Miller (Sal Zizzo 72), Mikael Silvestre, Andrew Jean-Baptiste, Michael Harrington - Will Johnson, Diego Chara (Rodney Wallace 82) - Diego Valeri - Kalif Alhassan (Jose Adolfo Valencia 72), Ryan Johnson, Darlington Nagbe. TEAM NEWS  The Timbers ended the match with a 21-9 advantage in attempts at goal, 13 of those coming in the second half as they overcame the 2-goal deficit.  “The first thing I told them is you can’t do anything about the mistakes,” Timbers head coach Caleb Porter said. “But we needed to put it behind us and focus on what we’re going to do to pull the goals back and get a result and mentally they did that. It doesn’t happen very often down two goals to come back, but this group continues to show they have the mental toughness.”

“To outshoot them 21 to nine is pretty remarkable,” Ryan Johnson said. “I know we want to keep building on this draw, to go down twice and come back twice is a big thing.” Darlington Nagbe started on the left side of the Timbers front three and netted his first goal of the season, for his former college coach at University of Akron. “Sometimes with Darlington you have to give him a kick in the ass, in a positive way, you know, pump him up,” said Porter. “… Part of it is just telling Darlington, instead of a midfielder, he needed to play more like a striker and get at their right back and go after (right back Kosuke Kimura). We knew that was perhaps a matchup we could win. The light bulb went on. And he was a handful in that second half. I felt he was a big part of us turning the game around.” “He’s been telling me the same thing since I was 17,” Nagbe said of Porter. “He’s a great coach, a great guy and he knows how to motivate every single player, which is what I think is great about him.” The club’s new Designated Player, Diego Valeri, opened his MLS account in style with a 14th-minute goal. “He was tremendous. He is worth every penny. He’s gifted. He’s capable of pulling a rabbit out of the hat at any given moment. He’s very clever in tight spaces and he can unlock teams. He’s going to be a handful this year as well,” said Porter. Said Ryan Johnson: “He’s a pleasure to play with. All I have to do is time my runs and make sure I’m onside and he’s going to find me.”

MONTREAL IMPACT The Montréal Impact opened their second MLS campaign with a terrific result, getting the game’s only goal for a 1-0 victory against Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field. LAST MATCH  The only goal came after 35 minutes. Felipe chipped the ball over a pair of defenders for Davy Arnaud to run onto, and from just outside the area he floated a half-volley over Seattle goalkeeper Michael Gspurning after he wandered a bit too far off his line.  New signing Andrea Pisanu was given the start wide on the right by Marco Schällibaum – making his own MLS debut – the only newcomer to the club to be featured in the first XI.  MONTREAL IMPACT (4-1-4-1): Troy Perkins - Hassoun Camara (Dennis Iapichino 84), Matteo Ferrari, Alessandro Nesta, Jeb Brovsky - Patrice Bernier - Andrea Pisanu (Calum Mallace 69), Felipe Martins, Davy Arnaud, Justin Mapp (Sanna Nyassi 46) - Marco Di Vaio. TEAM NEWS  A year ago, the Impact won just two games on their travels in their inaugural MLS season, taking just nine points total from their 17 away matches.  “You saw tonight what Troy (Perkins) brought in the goal and Alessandro (Nesta) was like a wall. They bring a lot of experience. It's nice to have no goals allowed,” said Impact head coach Marco Schällibaum.  “We’ve got a lot of guys with experience, we have a full season under our belt and our new coach insists a lot on staying mentally focused, staying strong,” midfielder Patrice Bernier said. “And the four guys we have at the back show those characteristics that allow you to play well defensively. Today, we showed that we’ve grown. That we’ve learned our lessons.”  With Marco Di Vaio lined out as the spearhead in attack, Felipe and Davy Arnaud provided the midfield thrust from the center of the park – and combined on the first Montréal goal of the season.  “I wanted the midfield to go deep and there was the perfect timing of Felipe and Davy to score the goal,” said Schällibaum.  “Scoring goals on the road is tough, and especially against them. They score a lot of goals here at home, but I think this year in preseason we've been really solid defensively,” said Arnaud. “If we can continue to score one goal and get points on the road, we're going to be OK.”  Bernier was installed into a deeper-lying role in the center of midfield, behind Felipe and Arnaud.  “It’s a position I’ve played before, and it’s not that I can’t play well there, but I know that there are other things I can bring to the table,” Bernier said. “But the coach is showing me that he’s fully confident that I can start plays there, and it went well.” Said Schällibaum: “It is important for us to have a player like him, who recovers the ball well and doesn't lose it much.”  Justin Mapp was given the start wide on the left of midfield, before giving way to Sanna Nyassi at the halftime interval.  “I don’t think that, at any point, we panicked,” Arnaud said. “We held a good shape, had our moments where we kept the ball and we created some good chances. They were pressing the game at times, but the way we handled it was very good.”

HEAD COACH CALEB PORTER One of the most successful coaches in NCAA history, Caleb Porter was named the Timbers head coach on Aug. 29, 2012, and joins the club following seven seasons as the head coach at the University of Akron from 2006-12. He finished his time at Akron with a career mark of 123-18-17 and owned the highest winning percentage (0.832) among all active Division I coaches. Porter built Akron men’s soccer into a perennial national championship contender, leading the Zips to five consecutive trips to the NCAA tournament’s Round of 16 (2008-12), back-toback NCAA College Cup appearances in 2009 and 2010, and the school’s first national title in any sport in 2010. In all, he guided Akron to seven Mid-American Conference (MAC) regular-season championships and five MAC Tournament titles. Porter set multiple NCAA records at Akron, including a 48-match, home unbeaten streak (44-0-4) from 2008-11 and a 47-match unbeaten streak (44-0-3) in conference play from 2006-12. From Kalamazoo, Mich., Porter garnered numerous honors while at Akron, including NSCAA National Coach of the Year in 2009. He was a three-time NSCAA All-Ohio Coach of the Year (2008-09, 2011) and received MAC Coach of the Year honors six straight years from 2007-12. Porter became the fastest coach in program history to reach 100 career wins, accomplishing the feat in just 126 matches. He is also among the fastest all-time in NCAA history to the century mark, reaching the milestone in fewer games than collegiate Hall of Fame and current MLS coaches Bruce Arena (140; Virginia) and Sigi Schmid (136; UCLA). While at Akron, Porter recruited and developed more than a dozen Zips players who have gone on to professional careers, many plying their trade in Major League Soccer. He had an MLS-record five former players selected in the first round of the 2011 MLS SuperDraft and seven selected overall that year. Under Porter’s guidance, Portland’s Darlington Nagbe and former Akron standout Teal Bunbury were recipients of the MAC Hermann Trophy, awarded to the nation’s top collegiate player. Porter also served as the head coach of the U.S. U-23 Men’s National Team during 2012 CONCACAF Olympic qualifying and spent three years as an assistant coach on the U.S. U-18 National Team from 2009-11. Prior to joining Akron, Porter was an assistant coach for six years (2000-05) at Indiana University, helping the school make six NCAA tournament appearances, win back-to-back national championships in 2003 and 2004 and claim five Big Ten Conference titles. As a player, Porter was the 27th overall pick by the San Jose Clash in the 1998 MLS College Draft. He spent time with San Jose and the Tampa Bay Mutiny before a knee injury ended his playing career in 2000. Porter also played for the U.S. National B Team from 1996-97, winning a bronze medal at the 1997 World University Games. He had a successful collegiate playing career at Indiana, where he was a three-year captain, a threetime All-Big Ten honoree and a four-year letter winner. Porter led the Hoosiers to four conference titles, four NCAA tournament appearances – twice advancing to the College Cup. As a senior, Porter captained IU to 23 consecutive wins before losing to eventual national champion UCLA in the national semifinals and was the runner-up for the 1997 Hermann Trophy. Porter graduated from Indiana in 1998 with a degree in sports management. He and his wife, Andrea, have three children – two sons, Colin and Jake, and a daughter, Stella Jane.

MATCH DAY PREVIEW Portland is set to take on the Montreal Impact for the first time at JELD-WEN Field as MLS clubs on Saturday. Following an exciting two-goal comeback against the New York Red Bulls in the team’s 3-3 draw on opening night, the Timbers now turn their attention to a Montreal side featuring a new head coach, Marco Schällibaum. The Impact earned a 1-0 win on the road against Seattle Sounders FC on March 2 as captain Davy Arnaud latched onto a lofted pass from Felipe Martins and chipped a shot over Sounders FC goalkeeper Michael Gspurning. Italian defender Alessandro Nesta marshaled the defense for Montreal and helped secure the clean sheet in the debut of new head coach Marco Schällibaum. The Timbers, who engineered a two-goal comeback, the largest deficit the club has overcome in its MLS history on March 3, are expected to face Troy Perkins in goal on Saturday against Montreal. Perkins, who came to Portland in a trade prior to the 2011 season, appeared in 51 games for the team and is the club’s career leader in every goalkeeping category. Perkins was traded to Montreal on Aug. 7, 2012.


MONTREAL IMPACT AT PORTLAND TIMBERS SATURDAY, MARCH 9, 2013 ALL-TIME SERIES NOTES Dating back to the USL second-division era from 2001 to 2010, the Timbers and Impact squared off against each other 15 times with Portland earning an 8-4-3 overall record against their French Canadian opponents. In eight home dates, the Timbers registered a 4-3-1 record with 11 goals scored and five goals conceded.

Montreal followed suit with its acension to MLS in 2012 and renewed competition against the Timbers at Stade Olympique in April 2012. Just three players (Jack Jewsbury, Diego Chara and Darlington Nagbe) who started in an injury-marred, 2-0 loss against the Impact on April 28 remain on Portland’s current roster. The Impact, likewise, hired a new coach during the offseason and brought in several new faces while heading back to their pipeline of Italian talent with the acquisition of midfielder Andrea Pisanu on loan from Serie A side Bologna.

MOVING UP THE CHARTS Timbers midfielder/forward Darlington Nagbe moved into first place on the club’s all-time shots list with three in a 3-3 draw against the New York Red Bulls on March 3. Nagbe’s three shots, two of which were on frame, brought the thirdyear pro’s career total to 83 shots, besting Jack Jewsbury’s previous high of 82 shots. The winner of the 2011 MLS AT&T Goal of the Year and a finalist for the same award in 2012, Nagbe is also the club’s all-time leader in fouls suffered (89). Nagbe now has nine goals, one shy of Jewsbury (10) as the team’s MLS career leader. Midfielder Kalif Alhassan’s assist on Diego Valeri’s first career goal for Portland was the ninth of his career with the MLS Timbers, moving him to within three of tying the club’s all-time mark of 12 held by Jack Jewsbury.

SCOUTING THE IMPACT On March 2, Montreal earned a season-opening 1-0 win on the road against Seattle Sounders FC in a tough environment as team captain Davy Arnaud lifted a shot over goalkeeper Michael Gspurning in the first half and the Impact defense held on for the shutout to award new head coach Marco Schällibaum with a win in his MLS head coaching debut. Featuring former Timbers goalkeeper Troy Perkins, the Impact back line is marshaled by the Italian duo of Alessandro Nesta and Matteo Ferrari while the attack is keyed by former Bologna and one-time Italian National Team forward Marco Di Vaio. In midfield, Canadian international Patrice Bernier and 22-year-old Brazilian Felipe Martins help link up the offense. Last year marked Montreal’s first season as an MLS club and the learning curve was harsh at times as the Impact endured winless streaks of five games to start the 2012 season and six games ending the year, dropping the team out of playoff contention. Montreal finished its first year 12-16-6 overall with 42 points.

PROTECTING PORTLAND Dating back Aug. 5, 2012, in a 1-1 draw against FC Dallas, the Timbers have gone an MLS club-record seven straight matches without defeat at JELD-WEN Field. Portland has compiled a record of 2-0-5 during the run, which eclipsed the team’s previous six-game, regular-season unbeaten streaks that ran from July 30 to Sept. 21, 2011 (4-0-2 record) and April 21 to July 3, 2012 (4-0-2).

WAITING ON THE CALL The Timbers have gone a club record stretch of 35 matches without receiving a penalty kick (3,184 minutes since the team’s last penalty kick attempt). Portland was last awarded a shot from the penalty spot during the 2011 season finale against Real Salt Lake on Oct. 22, 2011, at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah. Jack Jewsbury’s 56th-minute attempt went over the crossbar, but the Timbers were able to steal a point at the end with a stoppage-time equalized from defender Futty Danso. Since the conclusion of the 2011 season, 73 penalty kicks have been awarded in league play. According to Elias Sports Bureau, the team’s 35-game stretch without a penalty kick ranks sixth all-time in MLS history. Chivas USA leads the record books with a 54-game streak between August 2010 and April 2012.

ALHASSAN ASSISTS On March 3, Kalif Alhassan became the latest player to record an assist in three straight home openers. According to Elias Sports Bureau, the last player to record an assist in three straight home openers before Alhassan was Shalrie Joseph from 2009-11 with New England. Jason Kreis is the only player ever to record an assist in four straight home openers from 1998-2001.

Midfielder Kalif Alhassan is on track to reach 50 career MLS appearances in Saturday’s match against Montreal. Alhassan started the season-opening match against New York and recorded an assist. The Ghanaian joined the Timbers during the club’s final season as a second-division side in 2010 from Ghana’s Liberty Professionals. Third-year midfielder/forward Darlington Nagbe’s next goal will be the 10th of his MLS career. It would also put Nagbe into a tie with Jack Jewsbury as the club’s all-time career goal scoring leader. Nagbe scored his ninth career goal with a rebound in the 56th minute against New York on March 3. Team captain Will Johnson’s next assist will be the 10th of his career. Johnson earned the second assist on midfielder Diego Valeri’s first career goal in a 3-3 draw with New York on March 3. The seven-year MLS veteran has registered an assist in each of his last five seasons.

TIMBERS BATTLE BACK FOR DRAW In a thrilling home-opening match against the New York Red Bulls on March 3, the Timbers overcame a two-goal deficit in the second half to earn a 3-3 draw and a share of the points in front of 20,764 fans at JELD-WEN Field, the largest regular-season crowd in Timbers MLS history. Designated Player Diego Valeri registered his first career goal in the 14th minute, leveling the score, 1-1. Following two unanswered goals before halftime, Portland was able to climb back into the match with a goal from Darlington Nagbe in the 56th minute and an own goal, forced by forward Jose Valencia, in the 83rd minute. The deficit was the largest overcome by Portland in the club’s MLS history and marked a positive start in head coach Caleb Porter’s first game on the bench. Portland now has a 2-0-1 record in home openers.

ZIZZO SURGERY SUCCESSFUL On Monday, midfielder Sal Zizzo underwent successful surgery to repair a medial meniscus tear in his left knee. Zizzo sustained the injury Monday in training and is expected to be out four weeks. In his third season with the Timbers, he played in the club’s season-opening draw against the New York Red Bulls on March 3. He has appeared in 51 matches, recording one goal and eight assists since joining the club in a trade with Chivas USA on Feb. 16, 2011.

SOCCER CITY, USA The consecutive sellout streak at JELD-WEN Field is one thing, but the Timbers run of a 97-percent season-ticket renewal rate in back-to-back years is equally as notable. The club currently has a Season Ticket Waiting List of more than 6,500 fans and even increased the season-ticket allotment by 500 during the offseason, raising the total number of season tickets to 15,250.

TIMBERS ACADEMY UPDATE Major League Soccer and the French Football Association announced a partnership earlier this week that will provide MLS Academy coaches with world-class training through an extensive development course to earn their Elite Formation Coaching License (EFCL). Timbers Academy Director and U-16 Academy head coach Mike Smith is currently in Paris as part of the MLS delegation hosted by the FFF at the federation’s Clairefontaine national training facility, where they will guide the youth directors through the same program as the one it provides its domestic coaches. The EFCL program, however, also will include customized features developed by MLS, the United States Soccer Federation and the Canadian Soccer Association TIMBERS U-18 NOTES The Timbers U-18 Academy defeated the Surf 1-0 on March 2 at San Diego Polo Club in Rancho Santa Fe, Calif. Forward Christian Desir (Portland, Ore.) scored the game-winner in the 63rd minute, logging his fifth goal of the season. On March 3, the Timbers U-18s defeated Nomads 3-1 at Kinsell Field in San Diego. Desir scored his second and third goals of the weekend and midfielder James Nosack (Vancouver, Wash.) tallied his ninth goal of the season to help lead Portland to a third straight road victory. The Timbers U-18s improve to 8-8-2 (26pts) and sit in fifth place in the Northwest Division. TIMBERS U-16 NOTES The Timbers U-16 Academy earned a 2-0 victory over the Surf on March 2. Forward Alex Segovia (Beaverton, Ore.) scored his third goal of the season and midfielder Octavio Hermasillo (Portland, Ore.) scored in a second straight match. The U-16s had a season-high, six-goal outburst on March 3, defeating Nomads 6-0 behind two-goal performances from midfielder Jacob Kempf (Camas, Wash.) and defender Peter Prescott (Vancouver, Wash.). Unbeaten in their last four matches and the winners of three straight, the Timbers U-16s are 7-6-5 (26pts) and sit in fourth place in the Northwest Division for their age group.
