After both athletes put on impressive displays in a 2-1 victory over LAFC, Portland Timbers strikers Felipe Mora and midfielder Diego Chara were named to the MLS Team of the Week for Week 14. It is the second time this week that the Timbers have been represented on the team, with Jeremy Ebobisse earning honorable mention on Monday.

Mora hit the game-winner at the death in the 93rd minute to give Portland the victory over LAFC on Wednesday. It is the second time that Mora has scored in the waning minutes of a match this season to give Portland a win. Chara, meanwhile, was flying all over the field on Wednesday, once again being a strong presence on both offense and defense.

The Timbers are back in action this weekend with their match tomorrow against Minnesota United. Kickoff is set for 5 p.m. Pacific. For the full MLS Team of the Week, you can click here.
