Fanendo Adi Enters Portland Timbers History Books

Fanendo Adi etched his name into Portland Timbers folklore after scoring a brace in their 2 - 1 win over Columbus Crew on Sunday morning .

His 28th and 50th minute goals took his tally this season to 12 goals and set a club record for the highest number of goals netted by a player in a single - season in the MLS.

After playing 29 games in the league, the Nigerian striker has notched up four braces, the same tally he had as at this time during the 2014 season.

Also, Adi’s pair of goals today at MAPFRE Stadium saw him surpass his personal scoring record in a single season which he set during the 2013 - 14 campaign after netting 10 goals cumulatively in the colours of AS Trencin and FC Copenhagen.

The 24- year - old and Portland Timbers will next take to the pitch on Sunday, October 4 when they face Sporting KC.
