Reyes, Burke lead Red Bulls to 2-1 MLS win over Montreal

The two clubs have alternated wins in the last eight matchups. Montreal beat the Red Bulls 2-0 earlier this season. Montreal has beaten New York twice in the same season just once — in 2019.

Carlos Coronel turned away one shot in goal for the Red Bulls. Jonathan Sirois saved four shots for Montreal.

Montreal managed just five shots against the Red Bulls, who have allowed a league-low 39 on the season. Montreal entered play averaging 9.8 shots per match — lowest in the league.

The Red Bulls (3-4-7) improved to 3-0-1 in all competitions under new coach Troy Lesesne. Waterman’s goal was the first allowed by the Red Bulls since Lesesne replaced Gerhard Struber.

Montreal has lost seven of its last eight on the road, the first six by shutouts.
