Sporting KC loses lead in final minutes, plays to 1-1 draw with Montreal

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Matteo Mancosu scored a late goal to help the short-handed Montreal Impact to a 1-1 draw with Sporting Kansas City on Saturday night.

Evan Bush had four saves — including a diving stop of Benny Feilhaber’s shot in the opening minutes — for Montreal (4-4-5). The Impact are without seven players on international duty.

Mancuso ran after a free ball and, from just inside the box, chipped it over the head of a charging Tim Melia into the corner of the net to make it 1-1 in the 82nd minute.

Ike Opara on the late goal allowed by #SportingKC: “It shouldn’t have come to that, and it’s a missed opportunity tonight.
