According to the Timbers front office, more than 15,000 fans were in attendance for the game at Jeld-Wen Field.

The Timbers were down by one goal until the 78th minute, when Ryan Kawulok knocked in a goal off a corner kick to tie the score.

Next up is the Swedish team AIK at Jeld-Wen on Sunday, which will be the Timber's final preseason game before the regular season begins March 12.
