Portland Timbers Off-Season Report | Pre-Season Results, Concussion, Game Schedule

Portland Timbers 2012 SeasonBy Will Conwell

Timbers Draw Newcomers Montreal; Beat Houston

On Friday the Portland Timbers faced off against the Montreal Impact in the Timbers second preseason game of the season. Neither team was able to find the net as the match finished at a 0-0 draw. Of note for the Timbers was keeper Joe Bendick who made several strong saves while playing the full 90 minutes of the game.

Trialists Lance Davids, Sebastian Rincon, and Franck Songo'o all saw time on the field, as did draft pick Miguel Ibarra. Songo'o had perhaps the greatest impact on the game as a field player, providing good service from the corners, which the Timbers were unable to convert.

Two days later the Timbers once again took to the field, this time facing John Spencer's former club, the Houston Dynamo. The Timbers managed a 2-0 victory over last year's MLS Cup Runners Up with goals coming from Jack Jewsbury and James Marcelin. Jewsbury's game winner was typical of the Timbers captain who received the ball inside the box and calmly slotted it into the net. Marcelin's goal, his second of the preseason, was a rocket fired from 25 yards out that struck the crossbar before ending up across the line. Read the rest of this entry »
