CF Montreal kicks off final road trip of 2026 with 4-0 defeat to Charlotte FC

Charlotte FC secured their postseason berth with a dominant 4-0 victory over CF Montreal at Bank of America Stadium on Wednesday night. Idan Toklomati opened the scoring in the seventh minute before Liel Abada sealed the win with a 16-minute hat trick in the second half. The defeat extended a tough stretch for Montreal, managed by interim boss Philippe Eullaffroy, who saw his side register seven shots with none on target against Charlotte.

CF Montreal started 17-year-old goalkeeper Samsy Keita for his second consecutive match behind a struggling defensive line. Meanwhile, reports suggest key departures could loom this winter, with Alexis Sanchez reportedly considering triggering an exit clause and leading scorer Prince Owusu linked to clubs in Saudi Arabia and Germany. Owusu missed the contest due to a lower-body injury.
