Austin FC Beat the Portland Timbers 4-1

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Jon Gallagher scored the first MLS goal at Q2 Stadium and Austin FC beat the Portland Timbers 4-1 to snap an eight-game winless streak. Austin won for the first time since back-to-back victories on April 24 and May 1. Gallagher opened the scoring with a sliding finish of a give-and-go with Tomás Pochettino in the 28th minute. It was Austin’s first goal since a 1-1 tie with Sporting Kansas City on June 12. Austin, which went into the game with just six goals this season, had 69.3% possession and the Timbers had just five shots, one on target.
