MONTREAL (AP) — Patrice Bernier scored from the penalty spot and added another goal late in the second half and the Montreal Impact defeated D.C. United 3-0 on Saturday.
The victory extended the Impact's winning streak to five games and moved the club to within a point of the fifth-place United for the final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
D.C., which hasn't won back-to-back games since late May, has three games in hand.
Marco Di Vaio also scored for Montreal (12-13-3).
