Teenager Cavan Sullivan makes MLS history in Union’s 2-0 win over Montreal

CHESTER, Pa. (AP) — Cavan Sullivan scored in a third straight match to become the first teenager with a goal contribution in five straight and the Philadelphia Union beat CF Montreal 2-0 on Saturday night to extend their unbeaten streak to eight.

The 16-year-old Sullivan added an insurance goal — unassisted in the 75th minute for his fourth marker of the Major League Soccer campaign.

Neither team found the net until Danley Jean Jacques scored for the third time — unassisted in the 57th minute to give Philadelphia (7-10-6) the lead. The midfielder matched his career high set last season in 31 appearances.

Andre Blake had a save on a penalty kick by Prince Owusu to keep it 1-0 in the 68th minute. Blake made two saves to earn his fourth clean sheet this season and his 24th in 288 career starts with the Union.
