Oct 1st features a match where DC United will travel to Montreal to battle Montreal Impact in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Major League Soccer teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 17 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. 2nd placed Montreal Impact is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against New England Revolution. Alistair Johnston scored the first goal for Montreal Impact in the 72nd minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster At the end of 90 a dissapointed New England Revolution couldn’t manage to score, and Montreal Impact took the shutout win. Montreal Impact is on a hot streak lately, with only 1 loss in their last 10 matches, while 14th placed DC United is fresh off their 2-3 loss against Inter Miami. Christian Benteke struck first for DC United in the 22nd minute on a feed from Christopher Durkin, then Leonardo Campana got the equalizer for Inter Miami in the 39th minute on a feed from Aimé Mabika But fortunately they were able to complete the comaback in the 94th minute on a goal by Gonzalo Higuaín. DC United looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 6 of their last 10.
In their last match together, in Audi Field, Montreal Impact won by a score of 2 to 1 in front of a crowd of almost 16000 spectators. Romell Quioto scored the first goal for Montreal Impact in the 1st minute, then Romell Quioto added another in the 35th minute on a feed from Joel Waterman.
Birnbaum and Ola Williams Kamara are the top scorers for DC United in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Kei Kamara has been the most effective weapon for Montreal Impact lately. The attacker has netted 3 goals in his last 5 matches.
