Portland Timbers Start the League’s Cup With a 2-1 Come Back Win vs Club León

The Portland Timbers’ first minutes in the 2024 League’s Cup started on the wrong foot, conceding a goal in the 12th minute from Alan Medina. Club León seemed to control the game and The Portland Timbers never lost faith was trying to bring danger to the goal defended by Alfonso Blanco, especially using their height advantage, where Portland defender Zac McGraw seemed to own. Zac would have his efforts paid off in minute 41, following a corner kick by Evander Ferreira. The same formula would be repeated in stoppage time, Evander executing a corner, and Zac McGraw owning the air and heading the final 2-1.
