Portland Timbers 1 New England Revolution 1: Nguyen salvages point for visitors

Lee Nguyen cancelled out Diego Valeri's stunning volley as New England Revolution earned a late 1-1 MLS draw at Portland Timbers.

Nguyen equalised with six minutes remaining to ensure the Revolution left Portland with a share of the spoils on Sunday.

The Timbers had opportunities to double the lead but they were punished for wasting their chances when Nguyen tucked away Teal Bunbury's rebound.

Portland improved to 10 points from five matches in the west, sitting a point ahead of Houston Dynamo.

Meanwhile, New England - eighth in the Eastern Conference - drew for the first time this season.
