CF Montreal, D.C. United each score in first half of 1-1 draw
(Photo credit: Eric Bolte-Imagn Images) Luca Petrasso scored late in the first half to help CF Montreal extend its point streak to three matches with a 1-1 draw against visiting D.C. United on Saturday. It's the first time this season that Montreal (4-15-8, 20 points) has earned points in three straight. D.C. (4-15-8, 20 points) snapped a five-match losing streak but remains winless in its past 10 (0-8-2). Petrasso pulled Montreal level in the 41st minute. Caden Clark deflected a pass attempt by D.C. defender Aaron Herrera, creating a rush with Prince Owusu. Owusu maintained possession of the ball inside the top of the box and then sent a feed to Petrasso, who put it by the right arm of goalkeeper Luis Barraza on the near side. Jackson Hopkins gave D.C. a 1-0 lead in the 28th minute. The 21-year-old kept pace with a bouncing ball high in the attacking third, catching up with it at the arc before firing a right-foot strike past the outstretched arm of goalkeeper Thomas Gillier. Owusu appeared to put the hosts in front 2-1 in the 58th minute when Petrasso repaid the favor with a feed to the German striker deep inside the box, but the offside flag was raised, nullifying the goal. Jared Stroud came within inches of putting D.C. back in front late in the second half, taking a pass from Herrera near the spot in the 85th minute, but his attempt rolled just wide of the left post. D.C. had the better of the chances and spent more time in the final third early on but couldn't convert. Montreal started to find its game as the half progressed and had one of its best chances in the 37th minute off a free kick opportunity, but Barraza dived to get his hand on the ball to punch it away. Then, seconds later, Hennadii Synchuk put one over the net. Montreal defender Jalen Neal returned from injury as a substitute late in the second half, his first appearance since June 25.

Vilsaint scores in Toronto FC debut to tie visiting Crew 1-1
TORONTO – Canada's Jules-Anthony Vilsaint made an immediate impact in his Toronto FC debut. The Montreal native secured the late equalizer in a 1-1 draw against the Columbus Crew on Saturday at BMO Field mere moments after stepping onto the pitch. Vilsaint, wearing No. 99, darted toward the right side of the net, accepted a long cross from fellow TFC newcomer Djordje Mihailovic and stuffed it into the middle of the net to level the score in the 77th minute — just two minutes after entering as a substitute. TFC received a scare soon after when Columbus midfielder Daniel Gazdag appeared to restore the Crew's lead, but the goal was ruled offside after a review. Columbus' Diego Rossi opened the scoring in the eighth minute after a pass from captain Steven Moreira in the box deflected to him off TFC's Sigurd Rosted. Rossi made no mistake, depositing the ball under the outstretched arms of TFC goalkeeper Sean Johnson for his team-leading 14th goal of the season. Johnson made a pair of clutch stoppage-time saves to preserve the Major League Soccer draw, which marked the second straight game in which TFC earned a late tie against a top opponent. The Canadian side also battled the league-leading Philadelphia Union to a 1-1 result one week earlier. Thanks to Vilsaint, who was acquired from his hometown club on Wednesday in a deal for midfielder Matty Longstaff, TFC (5-8-13) maintained its slim playoff hopes alive with the late point. Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. Meanwhile, Columbus (13-9-5) missed the chance to leapfrog Nashville and Cincinnati, who were both idle, for second in the Eastern Conference. Columbus' Jacen Russell-Rowe, a Toronto native, entered the game for the Crew to begin the second half. The match marked Toronto's first home game since July 12 when it hosted Atlanta in a 1-1 draw. Toronto's next outing comes next Sunday on the road against Atlanta, which entered the day tied with TFC for 12th in the East. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Aug. 16, 2025.
