Reserves lose third straight, 1:0
August 21, 2012 (Official Game Summary)
A goal by forward Andrew Wenger in the second half lifted the Montreal Impact to a 1-0 shutout win against the New York Red Bulls Tuesday afternoon in Reserve League action at the Claude-Robillard Sports Complex.
Wenger scored the game-winning goal in the 60th minute when he was played in alone down the right side with a long ball from midfielder Josh Gardner. Wenger took a low shot, short side, which beat the New York Red Bulls goalkeeper Luis Robles to his left along the ground.
Impact goalkeeper Evan Bush made two key saves. The first came when Red Bulls midfielder Brandon Barklage curled a free-kick around the wall from about 25 yards out, but the Impact goalkeeper caught the ball as he dove to his right. Then in the 81st minute, Red Bulls midfielder Josh Janniere fired a high shot from a tough angle, just five yards out that was pushed out of bounds by Bush to preserve the clean sheet.
