DC United 7 Toronto FC 1
History was made in Toronto FC’s loss to DC United, with a 7-1 result it was the worst loss in club history.
With goals in the second and eighth minutes, there was a hint of bad things to come, but the Canadians were still in the match until Ralph Priso-Mbongue’s own goal made it a three-goal deficit in the 21st minute.
Despite pulling a goal back through Ayo Akinola in the 39th minute the writing was on the wall and after Eriq Zavaleta’s second yellow card in the 78th minute, Toronto conceded another four goals in the final nine minutes of the match.
The loss was so bad it finally spelled the end to Chris Armas’ tenure as Head Coach of Toronto FC, he’ll have an interesting footnote in club history as he’s sure to be the only Toronto FC Head Coach to never lead the team in a match in Canada.
CF Montreal 1 Inter Miami CF 0
Miami was spared having to be the away team in its own stadium for this match due to DRV PNK hosting the Concacaf Gold Cup Preliminary Rounds meaning CF Montreal hosted Inter Miami CF at Red Bull Arena.
Mathieu Choinere scored the only goal of the match in the 42nd minute as he put away Djordje Mihailovic’s pass and shot across the face of the goal for his first professional goal.
Miami pushed hard in the second half to try and find a second goal but just couldn’t find the goal they needed to pull back into the match.
The win was Montreal’s first since May.
Orlando City SC 1 New York RedBulls 2
A goal 11 minutes from time gave the New York Red Bulls a hard-fought win against Orlando City SC for the second time this season, the result kept Orlando from jumping to the top of the conference.
It took just six minutes for NYRB to open the scoring. Patryk Klimala played the ball for Cristian Casseres Jr who beat his defender and then hit his shot from outside the box past the keeper. That allowed the visitors to control the match but after the 15-minute mark, Orlando came back into the match.
Three minutes before the break Orlando had a golden opportunity as Mauricio Pereyra stepped up to take a penalty. His shot was saved by Carlos Coronel to keep New York in front at the break.
The Lions’ equalizer came just before the hour mark Daryl Dike won possession and crossed in for Pereyra to play it on for Chris Mueller who poked it home.
After that goal, the match became a fight and in the 72nd minute, Fabio found the winner as he ran on to a pass and slammed it home close in goal.
