After a draw last week versus the Seattle Sounders that felt more like a loss, the Montreal Impact pulled off a draw this week versus NYCFC that felt more like a win. New York dominated for the first half and the Impact retreated to the locker room lucky to be down by only a goal; it could easily have been a two or three goal gap. However, the Impact turned things around in the 2nd half.
IMFC came out with more conviction and started moving the ball around much more confidently. Their efforts were finally rewarded when Patrice Bernier spotted Dominic Oduro in the box in the 68th minute and the Ghanaian skillfully converted to tie the game at one.
