Moreno’s fireworm, on April 26 for FC Cincinnati 2-1 home win Kevin Denkey’s acrobatic installment after three games against Sporting Kansas City scored the second goal.
Maxime Crepeau made three savings to protect the first clean page and the four of the season for Portland (6-3-3, 21 points). Kansas City was held for the third time without a score, and the temporary head coach Kerry Zavagn took over Peter Vermes, who was fired six matches before.

Moreno, 10 minutes into the unforgettable effect.
After David also joined the Costa and Antony on the left side of the penalty area, a short cross was carved towards the penalty point.
Moreno was pulled near the 6 -yard box to keep the ball in the air with his left foot, and then fired a striking right foot throw in the left pole beyond the diving of John Pulskamp.
From there, Moreno ran to the distant edge line, where his mother went down the stairs to meet him to embrace the stands of the stands.
The target was the third of the season’s season and made it the fourth Timbers player with three or more.
Sporting’s most dangerous player was Daniel Salloi. Crepeau saved him in the 15th and 16th minute, and then Salloi expanded from a good position in 25 minutes.
Crepeau blocked Salloi from the 61st distance, and more than one goal of wood (total of 11) helped an extension of four MLS matches on a row.
