  "account": "CF Montreal experienced a nine-game winless streak at home after suffering a 2-0 defeat to Columbus Crew at Stade Saputo on Saturday night. Mohamed Farsi and Brais Mendez scored for Columbus (7-14-5) in the match. Despite Montreal controlling the tempo and midfield, they were unable to capitalize on the opportunities. In the 57th minute, Farsi broke the deadlock with a low driven shot that escaped goalkeeper Sebastian Breza. Columbus extended their lead in the 68th minute through a precise free kick from Brais Mendez. Montreal's next match is against FC Cincinnati on September 26, while Columbus faces Lionel Messi and Inter Miami on the same day.",
