NEW YORK (AP) — Prince Owusu scored the game’s only goal and CF Montreal defeated New York City 1-0 on Saturday for the visitors’ first win of the Major League Soccer season.

Montreal’s Jonathan Sirois made two stops for the clean sheet and Matt Freese made seven saves for NYCFC.

In the third minute of the second half, Owusu scored with a difficult left-footed shot from the right side of the box to the top left corner. Victor Loturi assisted.

NYCFC had 60.5 per cent possession but was outshot 22-9 overall and 8-2 on target.

The victory ended Montreal’s 11-match winless streak.
