FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Fredy Montero scored twice as the Seattle Sounders beat the New England Revolution 2-1 Saturday night for their fourth straight road victory.

The Sounders (16-6-9) have scored 16 goals while winning five of their last six overall and improved to 8-3-5 on the road.

Montero, who now has 11 goals on the season, has five goals and three assists over the last six matches.

Diego Fagundez scored for New England (5-14-12), which dropped to 4-5-6 at home while totalling just 16 goals. The Revolution are also 1-5-5 over their last 11 outings.

New England led 1-0 after the 16-year-old Fagundez headed in Benny Feilhaber’s corner kick in the 35th minute.

Montero tied the score from 20 yards out in the 36th minute and then gave Seattle the lead in the 47th.
