MONTREAL — After managing to steal a point in a game against Houston earlier this week with a goal deep into added time, CF Montreal now faces a must-win scenario against the Portland Timbers on Saturday night at Stade Saputo.
Montreal currently sits in ninth place in Major League Soccer’s Eastern Conference -- the final play-in position -- with 38 points, staying ahead of New York City FC by having the tiebreaker of more wins.
“Thankfully, there have been a few times where when we drop points, the teams behind us have as well. This next game is crucial, so we’ll be going in guns blazing and see where we stand after that.” The Timbers have also been far above the league standard for performance on the road during that run. In their last five away games, they have taken six points and lost just once. Good results notwithstanding, their defence on the road still leaves much to be desired, ranking towards the bottom of the league.
