In between, Andreu Fontas and Erik Thommy also both found the back of the net.

Portland managed a late goal by Sebastian Blanco.

Sporting has seen an offensive resurgence as of late with 11 goals over a three-match stretch. The club has also won two of those three matches.

Sporting returns home to play the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday at Children's Mercy Park at 7:30 PM.
