Ojediran and Herrington score 1st MLS goals, Rapids beat Timbers 2-0
COMMERCE CITY, Colo. (AP) --- Hamzat Ojediran and Lucas Herrington each scored
their first career MLS goal on Saturday to help the Colorado Rapids beat the
Portland Timbers 2-0.
Zach Steffen stopped three shots and had his first shutout of the season for
Colorado (1-1-0).
Ojediran opened the scoring in the seventh minute, when the 22-year-old
midfielder ripped a straight-away shot from 35 yards that deflected off
defender Finn Surman and rolled into the net.
The 18-year-old Herrington, at the back post, headed home a corner kick played
in by Dante Sealy to make it 2-0 in the 53rd.
Jimer Fory was shown a straight red card in the 77th minute and Portland
(1-1-0) played a man down the rest of the way.
The Rapids are 12-15-7 against Portland, 10-3-5 in Colorado.
James Pantemis had eight saves for the Timbers.
