There may not have been much at stake, but this was a better watch than Stade Saputo regulars have been used to this season, as the Impact ensured the Red Bulls dreadful Montreal record continued apace.
The men from Harrison, New Jersey have not won on their last ten visits in all competitions to Quebec, losing eight times. A 2-1 success at the Olympic Stadium in May 2012, the Impact then just a couple of months an MLS outfit, the Red Bulls’ sole success to date.
Today they needed to win and hope DC didn’t, at home to Cincinnati, to secure a home date in the Play-offs.
