MONTREAL (AP) — Patrice Bernier scored from the penalty spot in the 80th minute, and the Montreal Impact tied Chivas USA 1-1 on Sunday night.

Bernier’s goal came after Mario De Luna took down Sanna Nyassi on the left edge of the penalty area.

Eric Avila scored for Chivas (3-10-4), the last place team in the Western Conference. Chivas has gone 13 games without a win, dating to a 2-1 victory over Vancouver on March 30.

The East-leading Impact (9-4-4) are winless in three games and have allowed eight goals in that span. Montreal’s recent defensive woes surfaced again when low-scoring Chivas took a 1-0 lead in the 55th minute.

Montreal reached the halfway mark of its second season. The Impact were 5-9-3 as an expansion team last year at the midpoint.
