Preston Judd scored twice in the opening 12 minutes as the San Jose Earthquakes won for the first time in 20 trips to Portland in the MLS era, defeating the Timbers 3-1 Saturday night.

Daniel Munie also tallied and Jack Skahan had two assists for the Earthquakes (10-3-2, 32 points), who entered the match 0-14-5 at Providence Park since Portland joined the league in 2011. Goalkeeper Daniel De Sousa Britto made six saves as San Jose snapped a four-match winless streak (0-2-2) in MLS play and remained tied with Vancouver atop the Western Conference entering the six-week break for the FIFA World Cup.

Antony Alves Santos scored for Portland (4-8-2, 14 points) and goalie James Pantemis made four saves.

Judd opened the scoring in the second minute on a counterattack. Beau Leroux stole the ball just outside his own penalty area and sent a pass ahead to Skahan, who dribbled over midfield and threaded a pass to Judd on the right wing. With two defenders in front of him, Judd pulled up at the top of the 18-yard box and put a right-footed shot into the lower left corner of the net.

The Earthquakes doubled their advantage in the 12th minute as Nick Fernandez stole the ball on the right wing about 35 yards from the Portland net to start a 3-on-2 rush. Fernandez fed Judd just inside the top of the penalty area and he put a 16-yard shot into the upper right corner of the net, his team-leading 11th goal of the season.

Portland got one back in the 18th minute after a free kick in its own half of the field. Jimer Fory passed to David Da Costa, whose through ball sent Antony on a breakaway. Anthony slipped a low shot past a hard-charging Daniel from just outside the top left of the 6-yard box.

The Earthquakes restored their two-goal edge in the 24th following a corner kick on the right wing. Skahan got the ball back following a short corner to Benji Kikanovic and sent a low pass toward the net that Munie redirected past a sprawling Pantemis from a sharp angle just outside the right post.
