Shea's late goal gives FC Dallas narrow win

FRISCO, Texas (AP) -- FC Dallas got another late goal, this time from Brek Shea in the 88th minute to beat the Montreal Impact 2-1 Saturday night.
Montreal scored the game's first goal in the 61st minute, but Dallas tied it in the 77th on Blas Perez's team-leading third goal of the year.
The expansion Impact are winless in five road games, though this one was closer than the others, in which they were outscored 10-2.
After leading Dallas in scoring with 11 goals last year, Shea hadn't yet found the back of the net this season. But after receiving a short pass from Fabian Castillo in the middle, Shea charged into the penalty area and drilled a 15-yard shot underneath Montreal goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts, who came out to challenge him
On Perez's goal, Daniel Hernandez's free kick from about 20 yards out on the right flank found George John on the far side of the penalty area for a leaping header that bounced off the top of the crossbar. The ball ricocheted right to Perez five yards out for a header that made it just inside the right post.
FC Dallas goalkeeper Kevin Hartman made a spectacular diving save in the 87th minute, punching out a 25-yard blast from Zarek Valentin, preserving the tie game and setting the stage for Shea's winner a minute later.
Montreal went ahead on a penalty by Bernardo Corradi. It was called in the 60th minute as John and Zach Loyd covered Montreal's Davy Arnaud in the penalty area. Just as a long cross sailed in their direction, Loyd's legs appeared to clip Arnaud, who went down and drew the call.
Moments later, Corradi stepped up to the dot and drilled the ball into the upper left corner for his first goal of the season.
Dallas stormed back after that, generating several top-notch scoring chances, including one in the 66th minute when Bobby Warshaw's 15-yard shot was blocked just off the goal line by Montreal defender Shavar Thomas.
FC Dallas goalkeeper Kevin Hartman seemed to injure his right hand just before the final whistle blew after getting his hand kicked while corralling the ball.
Dallas controlled the play for much of the first half, generating several scoring chances while outshooting the Impact 3-1.
Their best chance of the half came just eight minutes in when Hernandez's corner kick found Perez on the far side of the goalie box for a header that bounced down and on its way back up, Ricketts got just enough of it with his right hand to deflect the ball just over the crossbar.
Dallas had another prime opportunity in the 45th minute when Castillo chased down a long pass from Perez, and rushed into the right side of the penalty area, but Ricketts charged out at him and made a nice save swallowing up Castillo's point-blank shot.
