MONTREAL (AP) --- Tai Baribo scored a goal for the fifth consecutive game and
Sean Johnson had six saves Saturday night for D.C. United in a 1-1 tie with CF
Montreal.
Montreal (4-10-5) is winless in eight consecutive games.

Baribo, who scored a career-high 16 goals for Philadelphia in 2025, has six
goals in the last seven games and 12 this season. Nicols Fernndez, Petar Musa
and Hugo Cuypers each had 13 goals, the most in MLS this season.
Kimito Nono, around the right corner area, played a first-touch cross to the
near post and a charging Baribo flicked home a header to make it 1-1 in the
67th minute.
Prince Owusu converted from the penalty spot in the 50th minute to open the
scoring. Keisuke Kurokawa conceded the penalty and was shown a yellow card
after VAR confirmed his hand ball in the area.
Thomas Gillier stopped one shot.
Montreal had 62% possession and outshot D.C. 19-8, 7-2 on target.
The teams played to a 4-4 tie on May 23 in Washington.
D.C. United is 10-9-13 against Montreal in the regular season, 4-7-6 at Stade
Saputo.
