On Saturday night, Santiago Moreno scored in the 10th minute, leading the Portland Timbers to a 1-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City, with Maxime Crépeau recording his first shutout of the season with three saves. After struggling early in the season and dealing with injuries, Crépeau’s performance was pivotal as Kansas City suffered their third shutout this season. This win came after Portland’s seven-game unbeaten streak was broken by a loss to San Jose, and they previously defeated Kansas City 4-2 on April 13.
