André Luiz scores 2 goals for Sporting KC in 3-3 tie with Timbers

André Luiz scored two goals, becoming the first player in Sporting Kansas City's history to achieve seven goals in their first seven appearances, during a 3-3 draw against the Portland Timbers on Saturday night. This historic feat came just a day after Luiz's acquisition from Olympiacos in a record-breaking deal worth $18 million plus add-ons.

Luiz's goal came in the 73rd minute, a powerful rolling shot inside the back post that showcased his exceptional skill and determination. The Portland Timbers, who had endured a three-game losing streak, are currently winless in five consecutive matches. In the first half, David Da Costa put the Timbers ahead with a goal in the 10th minute, followed by Vincent Janssen converting from the penalty spot to make it 2-0.

The game saw additional scoring from Vincent Janssen and Ariel Lassiter, who both found the back of the net for the Timbers. Justin Reynolds, on the other hand, scored his first goal of the season for Sporting Kansas City in the 70th minute, cutting the deficit to 3-2.
