Bassett's initial attempt from distance went off the far post, but he was first to the rebound for a shot into the back of the net. Kevin Kelsy also scored for Portland in the 21st on a redirection of Kristoffer Velde's cross to tie it at 1-all. Portland (4-6-2) was coming off a 6-0 victory over Sporting Kansas City, with Kelsy recording two goals and two assists in his third straight start. The 21-year-old's six-point performance versus Kansas City tied a club record last achieved by Sebastin Blanco in 2022. Montreal (4-7-1) had a four-game winning streak at home come to an end. Daniel Rios opened the scoring in the 11th, and Wiki Carmona gave Montreal a 2-1 lead just before halftime. Rios turned with the ball at the top of the penalty area and sent a curling effort into the top corner. Carmona ran past the defense for Matty Longstaff's through ball and he placed it past goalkeeper James Pantemis. ___ AP soccer: https://apnews.com/soccer
