RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Venezuela coach Rafael Dudamel almost left his job for political reasons after his team beat Argentina 3-1 in March in a friendly game in Madrid. One day before he faces Lionel Messi again — this time in the quarterfinals of the Copa América — Dudamel was more relaxed Thursday about his own future despite his concerns about the troubles at home.Three months ago Dudamel threatened to resign after a representative of Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaidó published pictures showing Dudamel and players with the representative after the match in Spain. The images were politically used as a sign of support of the players for the movement against Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.Dudamel was persuaded to stay on by Venezuelan soccer federation executives. One of them is Pedro Infante Crystal Dunn Jersey , who is also Maduro’s sports minister. To end the crisis, the coach said later he also met with representatives of the incumbent president in Spain, claiming he works for “the national team of all of Venezuela.”When the team known as Vinotinto secured its spot in Copa América’s knockout stage, both Maduro and Guaidó — who is recognized by the U.S. and several dozen other nations as Venezuela’s interim president — congratulated the coach and the players for their achievement. Neither tried to use the country’s national team for their own gain, as happened in the past.Asked on Thursday if he faces any political risks in the match against Argentina at the Maracanã Stadium on Friday, Dudamel said the situation was different from the time of the friendly game in Madrid.“Those that make politics have understood that the national team is a separate space to build the country, to unite our people,” he said. “From that moment onward Kelley O'Hara Jersey , all has been better. Each character in his own space.”Venezuela players have avoided talking politics during Copa América. Sitting next to Dudamel, midfielder Jeferson Soteldo chose not to reply to any questions about politics. But several have already used social media to criticize Maduro, including the team’s main star, striker Salomón Rondón.Dudamel is instead focusing on upsetting Argentina and Messi. He thinks a victory at the Maracanã could produce “the most important result of Venezuela’s soccer history” and bring some happiness to a nation in economic and political turmoil.“We suffered for a long time. We know what this could bring to all of our people,” the coach said. “We are in a good moment to do it, no matter who is the adversary. We feel secure and we are aiming high.”And Venezuela has reasons to believe it can beat Argentina, the same team that three years ago thrashed the Vinotinto 4-1 at the Copa America Centenario in the quarterfinals of the tournament. In the last six matches between the two, there were two wins for each and two draws.“The realities of each national team are different https://www.thetopsoccer.com/uswnt/lindsey-horan-jersey ,” Dudamel said. “Our moment is much better than in World Cup qualifiers or in that friendly in Madrid.” PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Marvin Loria and Jeremy Ebobisse each scored second-half goals to give the Portland Timbers a 3-1 victory over the Vancouver Whitecaps in a rainy Cascadia Cup rivalry match on Saturday night.Sebastian Blanco also scored for the Timbers, who were playing the first of a 10-match homestand at Providence Park. Portland (10-9-4) extended its unbeaten streak at home to six games.“Overall we managed the game really well,” Portland captain Diego Valeri said. “In the end, collectively, a strong performance.”Article continues below ...The Cascadia Cup, created by supporters of the Timbers, Whitecaps and Seattle Sounders Alyssa Naeher Jersey , is awarded to the winner of the head-to-head competition between the three teams each season, based on points.The Whitecaps, who beat Cincinnati 2-1 on the road last weekend, were undefeated in their last two matches after a five-game losing streak. Vancouver (5-12-9) has won just twice on the road this season.“I think today we did enough offensively on the road to get goals,” Vancouver coach Marc Dos Santos said. “We scored one, we could have easily scored two, and unfortunately it didn’t happen.”The Timbers were coming off a 2-1 loss in a U.S. Open Cup semifinal match to Minnesota United. It was the second straight loss to the Loons at Allianz Field: Portland lost 1-0 in an MLS match last Sunday.“Overall a very good performance and now we need to make sure we keep on working, we keep on getting better Rose Lavelle Jersey , and now we have another one on Wednesday,” Portland coach Giovanni Savarese said.The Timbers played without top scorer Brian Fernandez, who Savarese said was sore after the trip to Minnesota. Fernandez was expected back at training on Monday. Portland hosts Chicago on Wednesday.Blanco put the Timbers up in the 28th minute. Whitecaps goal keeper Maxime Crepeau got his hands on the blast from outside the penalty box but he couldn’t keep it out of the net. It was Blanco’s fourth goal of the season.The goal came with the Timbers playing a man up on Vancouver after Ali Adnan went down on a hard collision in front of the Whitecaps’ goal. Vancouver subbed in Brett Levis, but not until the 30th minute.The Whitecaps knotted the score about 10 minutes later on Theo Bair’s volley past Portland goalkeeper Steve Clark. It was the 19-year-old Ottawa native’s first career MLS goal.The Timbers were angry at the end of the first half because of what appeared to be a missed handball that would have given the team a penalty kick. Savarese jawed at the refs as they prepared to walk off the field.Loria put the Timbers back in front in the 55th minute with another strike from outside the box. Two minutes later Yordy Reyna chipped the ball past Clark and into the net but it was ruled offside.Ebobisse’s 90th-minute goal in the pouring rain was his eighth of the season.“We love the rain, when I walked out I was jazzed, and so was everyone else,” Timbers defender Zarek Valentin said.The Timbers will play 11 of their final 12 games at home. The team started the season with a 12-game road trip because of construction to expand Providence Park.The Whitecaps defeated the Timbers 1-0 back on May 5 in Vancouver. The team returns home to face D.C. United next Saturday.
