Victor Wanyama started from the bench as his side CF Montreal got a 3-0 thrashing from Cincinnati in a Major Soccer League (MLS) match played at the TQL Stadium in Ohio on Thursday morning.Ahead of the game, Montreal were on a six-match winning streak, their best ever in history, and were out to overcome Cincinnati, who were second in the log before kickoff but moved to the top after thrashing the Canadian giants.##NAJAVA_MECA_7261504##Montreal got off to the worst possible start when Joel Waterman conceded an own goal in the second minute after deflecting a free-kick into his own net. Luciano Acosta then made it 2-0 in the 36th minute before the rout was sealed by Brandon Vasquez in the 65th minute.Wanyama was introduced at halftime by coach Hernan Losada. He replaced George Campbell but could do little to prevent his team from suffering a rout.FC Cincinnati head coach Pat Noonan termed his team’s performance in the game the best overall show this season.”Excellent performance. That was probably our strongest overall in every way. Good, strong start, which we had talked about—how we could get a little bit better with the first 10-15 minutes of a game—and certainly they responded in a good way there. And I just thought about the discipline on the defensive side of the ball, which we talked about. There are certain things in this particular game that maybe could cause us problems,” he said.”I thought our front three were excellent in how they directed the ball in certain ways, aerial duels; our backline did excellent when they played direct; and we picked up a lot of turnovers and won some balls in some really good areas.”Following the win, Cincinnati are now at the helm of the log with 27 points after 12 matches while Montreal are 18th with 15 points having played the same number of matches.Next for Montreal is an away match against the New York Red Bulls on Sunday 21st May.
