LAFC Rallies to Draw CF Montréal 2-2 in MLS Match

CF Montréal secured a surprising 2-2 draw against LAFC, ending a difficult run with their first multi-goal game since February. Giacomo Vrioni and Prince Owusu gave Montréal a strong start with goals in the first 22 minutes, including a cleverly taken penalty by Owusu. LAFC fought back with Mark Delgado scoring before halftime and Olivier Giroud, who came off the bench, leveling the match in the 77th minute with a tap-in after a deflection off a Montréal defender. Despite controlling possession for much of the match and outshooting Montréal, LAFC was unable to find a winner, with Montréal goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois making seven saves. The result helps to ease growing tensions among Montréal supporters after a poor start to the season, with club president Gabriel Gervais set to address the situation publicly. LAFC extended their unbeaten streak to eight games but had to settle for a draw after surrendering a two-goal lead.
