Giroud, Delgado each score for LAFC in 2-2 tie with Montreal

Olivier Giroud and Mark Delgado each scored a goal for Los Angeles FC on Saturday night in a 2-2 tie with CF Montreal. Montreal scored multiple goals in the same game for the first time since a 3-2 loss to Atlanta in the season opener on Feb. 22. Hugo Lloris stopped five shots for LAFC (6-4-5). Montreal defender Dawid Bugaj redirected a ball-in but it Giroud was there for a one-touch finish from point-blank range to make it 2-2 in the 77th minute. Prince Owusu had his shot from the top of the area blocked but the loose ball rolled seemingly directly to Giacomo Vrioni, who held a defender on his hip before spinning and rolling a shot inside the right post in the fifth minute and Owusu converted from the penalty spot in the 22nd to give Montreal a 2-0 lead. Mark Delgado put away a cross played in by Nathan Ordaz, blasting a one-touch shot from near the penalty spot that deflected off goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois into the net in the 38th minute. Sirois finished with seven saves for Montreal (1-9-5). Montreal rebounded from a 6-1 loss to Toronto last week.

Bernardeschi, Corbeanu score twice to lead Toronto FC to 6-1 thrashing of CF Montreal

MONTREAL (AP) — Federico Bernardeschi and reserve Theo Corbeanu each scored two goals and Toronto FC dismantled CF Montreal 6-1 on Saturday. Tyrese Spicer opened the scoring when he broke away on the left sideline and converted a left-footed shot from left of the box past defenseless keeper Sébastian Breza for a 1-0 lead at 14 minutes. At the 21st minute, Ola Brynhildsen drew a red card on Montreal's Joel Waterman after Waterman took him down on the Toronto (4-7-4) side of the field. Nine minutes later, Bernardeschi took a pass from Deybi Flores, outran a defender and scored with the right boot from the right side of the box. Toronto broke it open at 33 minutes when Brynhildsen scored with the right foot from the center of the box. Bernardeschi scored at 55 minutes with a left-foot laser from the right-half space outside the box which found the top left corner. It was Bernardeschi's eighth-career goal against Montreal (1-10-4) in a Toronto uniform. Only former Toronto players Sebastian Giovinco and Jozy Altidore have ever scored more goals against Montreal than Bernardeschi. Montreal got on the board when Giacomo Vrioni tapped in a pass from Luca Petrasso who put a ball through the legs of a defender setting the table for Vrioni at 64 minutes. Four minutes later, Corbeanu punched in a loose ball generated off the keeper's block off a Bernardeschi to make it 5-1. He ended the scoring in stoppage time. ___ AP soccer:
