An ugly trend reared its head for the Crew again, and the result was a 1-1 tie with the Portland Timbers.
After Kevin Molino gave the Crew a 1-0 lead against the Portland Timbers in the 37th minute on Sunday, the Crew clung to that lead all the way until stoppage time. But in the 94th minute, almost exactly at the end of the four added minutes, Santiago Moreno's shot sailed just past the outstretched arm of goalkeeper Eloy Room to tie the game.
After both Orlando City and FC Cincinnati, the two teams immediately ahead of the Crew in the standings, won their games Saturday, the Crew needed to win against Portland to. And after Columbus was unable to close out its past two games in Montreal and in Miami, Porter emphasized the importance of turning in a complete performance against the Timbers.
Molino opened the scoring in the 37th minute with a nearly effortless finish as he ran unmarked through the left side of the box. The sequence began with Cucho Hernandez switching the ball across the field to Pedro Santos, who found Lucas Zelarayan just inside the 18-yard box.
