Entrusted with the armband once again, Kenyan international Victor Wanyama successfully skippered his CF Montreal side back to winning ways after a narrow 1-0 victory against Inter Miami in a Major League Soccer match played on Sunday morning at the Saputo Stadium,Despite boasting of experienced players like Blaise Matuidi, Gonzalo Higuain and combative defender Ryan Shawcross in their ranks, the David Beckham partly owned franchise could not do anything to prevent themselves from succumbing to a fifth straight defeat.+3 dans le classement 📈 @Videotron | #CFMTL pic.twitter.com/Ao2pnpOLvm— CF Montréal (@clubdefootmtl) July 4, 2021 Montreal had the brightest start to the game, asking questions of the Miami backline time and again. However, the side could just not find the telling touch in front of goal early on in the game forcing Miami only to a goal line save once in the opening fourty minutes. In the 41st minute of the game, Montreal’s persistence finally paid off when 22 year old Mathieu Choiniere, cool as you like, finished off beautiful build up play by Montreal as he slotted the ball into the bottom corner for his first ever goal at the club.Un choix assez évident.Mathieu Choinière est votre Joueur du match @Videotron 👊#CFMTL pic.twitter.com/vw0ducYD6P— CF Montréal (@clubdefootmtl) July 4, 2021 Miami coach Phil Neville then introduced Higuain at the start of the second half in a bid to tinker the game’s score line. Despite a much improved second half from the opponents, the ball could not fall cleanly to the former Juventus man and the game’s clearest chances once again fell to Montreal who were spraying the ball beautifully in the middle of the park.That solitary Mathieu first half goal proved the difference between the two sides in the end, Montreal jumping up to eight on the log on 16 points while Inter Miami stayed second bottom on the log with 8 points.
