Late Lodeiro, Bruin goals give Sounders 2-2 draw; spoil Impact home opener
MONTREAL — It was a draw that felt like a defeat for the Montreal Impact.
Leading by two goals with just under eight minutes to go, the Impact saw the Seattle Sounders score from the penalty spot and then get the equalizer from veteran Will Bruin in extra time in a 2-2 draw on Saturday night before 34,373 shocked fans at Olympic Stadium.
“It’s disappointing that we let them back in this game,” said still steaming Impact coach Mauro Biello after the match. “We have to be able to manage the game in the last seven or eight minutes.
“It was a lack of concentration in the final minutes and a good team took advantage of that. It was like our team was waiting for the final whistle.”
