MONTREAL (AP) — Josef Martínez scored in the first half and picked up an assist on Ariel Lassiter’s match winner in the second as CF Montreal held off FC Cincinnati 2-1 on Saturday night. It was a scoreless first half until Martínez found the net in the fourth minute of stoppage time for Montreal (3-3-1). Raheem Edwards picked up an assist when Martínez sent a left-footed shot from the center of the box to the bottom right corner of the net. Martínez subbed in for an injured Matías Cóccaro in the 26th minute before scoring for a second time this season. It was his seventh career goal against Cincinnati (3-2-3). Yuya Kubo took a pass from Luciano Acosta and found the net for the third time this season, pulling Cincinnati even in the 58th minute. Montreal retook the lead for good four minutes later when Lassister used an assist from Martínez — his third — to score his first goal of the campaign. |
