NATIONAL WOMEN’S SOCCER LEAGUE CHALLENGE CUP Portland Thorns move on to semifinals HERRIMAN, Utah (AP) — Rookie Morgan Weaver scored in the 68th minute to send the Portland Thorns into the semifi nals of the National Women’s Soccer League’s Challenge Cup with a surprising 1-0 upset victory over the two-time defending league champion North Carolina Courage on Friday. The win was eighth-seeded Portland’s fi rst victory at the tournament, and it came with the team’s third-string goal- keeper Britt Eckerstrom in goal. The top-seeded Courage had won all four of their Challenge Cup games going into the match. Eckerstrom had a stunning game, fi nishing with eight saves. Weaver took a cross from Raquel Rodriguez and beat Courage goal- keeper Katelyn Rowland, putting North Carolina behind for the fi rst time in the tournament. It was the fi rst professional goal for Weaver, who was the No. 2 pick in this year’s NWSL draft out of Washington State. Portland was hampered by injuries going into the game. Starting goalkeep- er Adrianna Franch hasn’t played in the tournament because of a right knee injury. Backup Bella Bixby, who played in the fi rst four games, was ruled out for Friday’s game because of a knee injury Portland’s backup for the game was goalkeeper coach Nadine Angerer, the former German national team standout. Blazing Fast Internet! Imagine The Difference You Can Make DONATE YOUR CAR LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) — Jeremy Ebobisse and Diego Valeri scored and the Portland Timbers clinched a spot in the knockout round of the MLS is Back tournament with a 2-1 victory over the Houston Dynamo on Saturday night. With a pair of wins to open the World Cup-style tournament, the Timbers have secured one of the top two spots in Group F going into Thursday’s match against the Los Angeles Football Club. “It feels good to win. Our fi rst goal was to reach the knockout stage,” Portland coach Giovanni Savarese said. “At the beginning, we were too conservative and made sure we had enough numbers to cover but once we had players going forward we were able to take more chances. We were able to control the match the majority of the time.” Alberth Ellis scored on a penalty kick for the Dynamo, who have one point through two matches. They would need a win over the LA Galaxy on Thursday to have any hope of advancing. Valeri’s score in the 61st minute not only gave the Timbers breathing room, but puts him one goal away from becoming the third player in MLS history to record 80-plus goals and 80-plus assists in their career during the regular season. Valeri took a crossing pass from Eryk Williamson at the top of the box, shook off pressure from Houston’s Aljaz Struna and placed a left-footed shot into the bottom right corner. It is the Argentine’s third goal of the season. The Dynamo pulled within a goal in the 86th minute when Elis converted a penalty kick, which was awarded after Portland’s Jorge Villafaña was called for a handball in the box. Ellis received his second yellow card of the match two minutes later as Houston played a man down the remainder of the match. Portland opened the scoring in the 35th minute when Sebastian Blanco split the midfi eld in transition and lofted a pass to Ebobisse to the left side of the box. The Timbers forward then beat two Houston defenders and fi red a left-foot strike that eluded Houston goalkeeper Marko Maric and found the bottom right corner. It is Ebobisse’s second goal in the tournament and his second in fi ve career matches against Houston. DON'T JUST KINDA TV. DIRECTV. Where sports fans call home.
