After an epic 1-0 win over DC United on the road, the Impact was coming back home with a suitcase full of confidence and aspirations.
Cheered on by 17K+ fans at Stade Saputo, Montreal faved a familiar Eastern Conference foe in the Columbus Crew.
After a disastrous first half , as Meram scored 2 goals caused by both his genius and avoidable defensive mistakes, Montreal started a comeback to tie the game 2-2.
Goals from Ignacio Piatti and Anthony Jackson-Jamel seemed to be enough to get a tie or even more.
But in stoppage time, Meram leads a 3v2 counter attack to score his hat trick and send the Impact packing home with zero points.
