With a well-crafted goal from Alexander Callens (6′), New York City thrashed Montreal 4-1 at home on the third date of the MLS Eastern Conference.
The New Yorkers are the reigning MLS champions, however they arrived without knowing of triumphs, following the defeat once morest LA Galaxy and the draw once morest Vancouver.
Today, the person in charge of opening the scoring was the Peruvian Callens, who found himself with a ball in the area, and with a powerful shot he sent it to save. Later, Rodríguez (19′), Magno (63′) and Andrade (82′) increased for the locals, while Guillard discounted at 51′.
New York City’s next duel will be a visit to Guatemala Communications, for the second leg of the Concacaf Champions League. In the first leg, our compatriot’s club won 3-1.
