The Portland Timbers would stage a miracle comeback from a 3-0 deficit, earning three second half goals and a 3-3 draw on the road with Sporting Kansas City.  Evander<\/strong>, Felipe<\/strong> Mora<\/strong>, and Eric Miller<\/strong> would score for the Timbers, while Willy Agada<\/strong> scored twice for he hosts, with Daniel Rosero <\/strong>also scoring.<\/span><\/p>\n

But it was two unfortunate deflections that would cost the Timbers in the 14th minute, with a pass being deflected by Cristhian Paredes<\/strong>, then a shot from the top of the box by Willy Agada<\/strong> deflected by Miguel Araujo<\/strong>, but the deflected shot was into the top left corner of the net past Maxime Cr\u00e9peau<\/strong>, and Sporting had a 1-0 lead.<\/p>\n

In the 38th minute, Sporting would double the lead, this time off a corner by Memo Rodr\u00edguez<\/strong> when Daniel Rosero<\/strong> was left unmarked as he charged into the penalty area, and he would get to the ball just before Cr\u00e9peau, and the hosts lead was now 2-0.<\/p>\n

Sporting would add another goal in first half stoppage time, a long ball to Robert Voloder<\/strong> appeared to have Rosero also involved in the play in an offside position, and Voloder headed to Agada, who scored easily to make the score 3-0 at the break. <\/p>\n

In the 61st minute, Sporting were awarded a penalty on a foul by Claudio Bravo<\/strong> at the corner of the box, but Agada shot well wide left on the penalty attempt.<\/p>\n

Just a minute or so later, Felipe Mora<\/strong> was fouled in the box by Tim Leibold<\/strong>, with another penalty being awarded, this time to the Timbers.  Evander<\/strong> took the kick, and scored easily with Tim Melia<\/strong> going the wrong way, and the Timbers had pulled a goal back and now trailed 3-1.

And just a few minutes later, the Timbers pulled another goal back when Jonathan Rodr\u00edguez<\/strong>‘s low cross found Mora, who one-timed the shot just over the line as Melia couldn’t keep the ball out, and suddenly the score was 3-2 Sporting.<\/p>\n

In the 77th minute the Timbers came within inches of tying the score when Rodr\u00edguez had a header attempt the was just inches past the post.<\/p>\n

Then in the 81st minute, the Timbers did tie it up, when a powerful header attempt from Paredes was saved by Melia, but the rebound fell to defender Eric Miller<\/strong>, who put his shot into the net for his first goal in his 11-year MLS career, and the score was level at 3-3.  Both teams would have good chances late, but neither team would find the net again and the score after 10 minutes of stoppage time would end up in a 3-3 draw.<\/p>\n
