Teenager Cavan Sullivan makes MLS history in Union's 2-0 victory 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 netter of the 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.
Sbastian Breza saved six shots for Montreal (5-12-6). He had allowed one goal
in each of his four starts this season.
The Union improve to 4-3-4 at home, while Montreal falls to 2-9-1 on the road.
