“CF Montreal suffers second loss this week against New York Red Bulls: Highlights and Analysis”

CF Montreal suffered a second loss this week, this time by a score of 2 to 1 against the New York Red Bulls on this rainy Saturday night in the “Big Apple”.

The Montreal XI was outshot 16-5.

See the highlights of the meeting in the main video.

The Red Bulls imposed their rhythm at the start of the match and they multiplied the attacks in Montreal territory. The Red Bulls’ numerous offensives were vindicated in the 23rd minute when defender Andrés Reyes netted his second of the season.

The visitors responded six minutes later after Canadian Joel Waterman threaded the needle for the first time this season. The Langley, B.C. native deflected Rudy Camacho’s cross with a header.

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 resume action on Wednesday against Forge FC in the Canadian Championship semi-final at Stade Saputo. They will then receive a visit from Inter Miami FC on Saturday.
