Owusu scores 2 goals, Montreal beats Cincinnati 3-1 to snap a 5-game losing streak

Prince Owusu scored two goals, one from the penalty spot and another from the center of the area, as Montreal FC edged out FC Cincinnati 3-1 in a match that ended their five-game losing streak. Daniel Ríos also found the back of the net, adding a goal and an assist to his tally. Owusu's third multi-goal game of the season marked a pivotal moment for Montreal, who had been winless in seven straight matches.

The 29-year-old forward has now netted 15 goals this season, tying his career-high tally and joining Marco Di Vaio, Ignacio Piatti, and Romell Quioto as the only players in Montreal's history to register at least 15 goals in a single regular season. Ríos opened the scoring in the 25th minute with a volley. Cincinnati's Tom Barlow equalized in the 64th minute, and Roman Celentano saved one shot for Cincinnati.
