Portland Timbers lost 2-1 to New York City FC at Providence Park on Sunday evening despite dominating the Major League Soccer fixture, with Fanendo Adi netting his eighth goal of the season.<br /><br />Adi , who struck ten minutes out of his intermission, had to be replaced in the 58th minute after picking up a hamstring injury.<br /><br />And coach Caleb Porter has suggested that the injury sustained by the Nigerian striker may have cost them, as it disrupted the flow of the game. <br /><br />&nbsp;&ldquo;Losing (Fanendo) Adi with a hamstring hurt because we have the run, the flow, we level game and he scores and then he goes out with hamstring. <br /><br />&ldquo;I do think, and I told the guys this, that second goal that was the killer, &rdquo; said Caleb Porter to timbers.com.<br /><br />He added : &ldquo;But in this case, talking about this game, I don&rsquo;t think it had anything to do with anything other than us giving up that second goal and losing Adi didn&rsquo;t help for sure.&rdquo;<br /><br />The 25-year-old Fanendo Adi has scored seven goals at Providence Park in the ongoing season.<br /><br />Igho Kingsley <br />
