Fanendo Adi has stated the reason why he had to celebrate his first goal of the season, which came against LA Galaxy, with Head Coach Caleb Porter. <br /><br />Early this morning, the 24 - year - old netted his fifth brace in the uniform of Portland Timbers, scoring either side of the half before a late goal from Alan Gordon denied The Timbers the maximum points.<br /><br />&ldquo;Because he gives me a lot of motivation. He tells me I can do it and I shouldn&rsquo;t think about the goal, I should just think about going in there and fighting, helping the team. <br /><br />&ldquo;And, for me, that brings a lot of courage. When I scored the goal the only thing that came to my head is to show him my appreciation,&rdquo; Fanendo Adi said to the official website, timbers.com.<br /><br />Only Clinton Dempsey (Seattle Sounders ) and Blas Perez ( FC Dallas) have scored more goals than Fanendo Adi in the MLS after two rounds. <br />
