ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Robin Lod scored the equalizer in the second half and notched an assist Sang-Bin Jeong’s winner as Minnesota United rallied for a 2-1 victory over the Portland Timbers on Saturday night.
Portland (3-7-4) jumped in front in the 17th minute and took a 1-0 lead into halftime after Jonathan Rodríguez used an assist from David Ayala to find the net for the fifth time this season. Rodríguez scored two of the Timbers’ four goals after the 70th minute in a come-from-behind 4-2 victory over the San Jose Earthquakes on Wednesday.
Lod pulled Minnesota United (7-2-3) even in the 65th minute with his fourth goal — to go along with nine assists — this season. Joseph Rosales picked up an assist on the equalizer.
Jeong came through with the go-ahead goal in the 82nd minute, using assists from Lod and DJ Taylor to score his first of the campaign. Jeong, a second-year forward, had one goal and one assist in nine starts and 23 appearances last season.
