PORTLAND, Ore.—Felipe Mora scored the tiebreaking goal on a 90th-minute penalty kick as the Portland Timbers rallied from a late two-goal deficit to defeat the 10-man San Jose Earthquakes 4–2 on Wednesday and snap a nine-match Major League Soccer winless streak (0–6–3).

Evander scored on a penalty kick in the 74th minute and assisted on Jonathan Rodriguez’s goal in the 80th minute for the Timbers (3–6–4), who won for the first time since March 9. Rodriguez added an insurance goal in the final minute of second-half stoppage time.
