DC United almost handed the Impact its second consecutive home loss if it wasn't for a late equaliser by Hassoun Camara. His glorious header, from a perfect pass by Marco Donadel, was required to beat Bill Hamid, who seemed unbeatable..almost.
Donny Toia tripped (or not) Patrick Nyarko in the box, gifting DC a penalty kick. Lamar Neagle, ex-Impact midfielder, would convert the penalty kick to give the visitors a 1-0 half-time lead.
Having trouble to settle in, many feared that Montreal would get trapped by DC , the same way they did vs the Chicago Fire.
