CF Montreal suffered a second loss this week, this time by a score of 2 to 1 against the New York Red Bulls on a rainy Saturday night in the Big Apple.
The Montreal XI was outshot 16-5.
The Red Bulls imposed their rhythm at the start of the match and they multiplied the attacks in Montreal territory. The many Red Bulls offensives were successful in the 23e minute, when defender Andrés Reyes netted his second of the season.
The visitors replied six minutes later, after Canadian Joel Waterman threaded the needle for the first time this season. The native of Langley, British Columbia, deflected a header off Rudy Camacho’s cross.
The crowd favorites were undeterred and capitalized late in the first half. Cory Burke jumped on a loose ball at the mouth of the net and it only had to beat CF Montreal goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois.
Hernan Losada’s men will return to action against Forge FC on Wednesday in the Canadian Championship semi-final at Stade Saputo. They will then receive a visit from Inter Miami FC on Saturday.
