Diego Chara’s legacy in Major League Soccer isn’t just the fouls that he’s so frequently called for. It’s his longevity.
And that smile.
Chara and the Portland Timbers will host longtime Cascadia Cup rival Seattle on Sunday. It will be the 38-year-old Colombian midfielder’s 33rd career regular-season league match against the Sounders.
“Loyal is a great word to describe me,” he said. “Playing this many years for the Timbers, I think it has been fantastic. We have great fans. The support from them, that means a lot for me.”
Chara set the MLS record for regular-season appearances with a single club two weeks ago when he started against LAFC. It was his 377th match with the Timbers, surpassing Chris Wondolowski’s record of 376, set with the San Jose Earthquakes.
He also was handled a pair of yellow cars in the match and was sent off, which meant he didn’t play last weekend when the Timbers fell 2-0 to Charlotte.
