USL-1 in Review: Impact 0-0 Rhinos

Montreal and Rochester played to a scoreless draw Wednesday night, making the Impact tied with seventh-place Vancouver for points. Montreal is still out of the playoffs due to goal differential.

An off-field altercation took place just before half. Montreal coach Marc Dos Santos and Rochester midfielder Tiger Fitzpatrick got into a dust up during a throw in on the sideline. Both teams described it differently.

Impact head coach Marc Dos Santos was ejected from the game in the 42nd minute, after making a friendly contact with Rhinos midfielder Tiger Fitzpatrick, who was attempting to complete a throw-in.


At least it didn't escalate Mexico-Panama style.

Austin is now three points behind both Montreal and Vancouver for the seventh spot.
