74 Portland had the edge on 74 duels to the Red Bulls' 35 in the match. The 74 duels won is the second-most ever by the Timbers in an MLS match and the second-most by any MLS team in a match this season. 


0 With the shutout, the Timbers have recorded clean sheets in back-to-back road matches. It is the second time that Portland has recorded consecutive road shutouts in one season in MLS play. 


7 The Timbers have moved their unbeaten streak to seven games, which is the second longest active undefeated streak in MLS. The seven games is also the longest regular-season unbeaten streak Portland has had since a 10-game unbeaten streak that bookended the 2013 and 2014 seasons.
