(Reuters) - Portland defender Nat Borchers turned the ball into his own net with six minutes left as the defending Major League Soccer champions were held to a 1-1 draw with Los Angeles Galaxy on Sunday. Fanendo Adi took a pass from Diego Valeri before slotting home to put the Timbers ahead in the 52nd minute, and that goal looked as if it would be enough until Borchers tried to clear a cross from Galaxy’s Sebastian Lletget and scored an own goal. Portland have now won just one of their first five games and are second from bottom in the Western Conference.
