J.C. Ngando News: Three tackles in loss

Ngando won all three of his tackle attempts and had one block in Saturday's 1-0 loss versus San Jose.

Playing only his second match of the year Ngando appeared to be finding his footing. The midfielder played only 65 minutes but was a thorn in the side of San Jose players all afternoon. After missing the last two matches, Ngando was lifted for a late sub, a trend that could continue on Saturday versus Portland.
