Even if it was already guaranteed to participate in the playoffs, CF Montreal did not intend to play extras in New England on Saturday. The Impact put an end to the Revolution’s chances of participating in the fall tournament by virtue of a 1-0 victory.

The two teams showed up at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough in two diametrically opposed contexts.
On the one hand, CFMTL wanted to keep up the pace and prepare for the playoffs. On the other hand, the Revs absolutely had to win the game to keep the hope of seeing their season continue.
However, Wilfried Nancy’s team continued to excel on the road by snatching a tenth victory, including a sixth in a row, on opposing grounds.
It was Alistair Johnson who scored the only goal of the game. The Canadian fullback scored his fourth goal of the season thanks to a brilliant side pass from Romell Quioto in the 72e minute.
More details will follow.
