First win comes over CF Montreal

FORT LAUDERDALE, Florida – The first day of Jaap Stam's second year on the job at FC Cincinnati saw the club produce arguably its biggest tangible sign of progress since he signed on as manager.

Stam, who on Friday celebrated one-year since he was introduced as FC Cincinnati's head coach, saw FCC (1-3-1) earn a comeback, 2-1 road win against CF Montreal (2-3-2) at DRV PNK Stadium.

Trailing 1-0 in the second half, Jürgen Locadia and Gustavo Vallecilla scored in the 70th and 86th minutes, respectively, to claim FCC's first victory of the 2021 campaign.

The match was played at Inter Miami CF's home stadium due to pandemic-related restrictions. 

“It’s been a good first half. I think we played very disciplined," Stam said afterward. "Did what we needed to do defensively, we’re not giving away too much. On the ball, we came out a couple of times, very good in transition and creating opportunities as well and at certain moments we could have been a little more composed on the ball but that’s what happens at times.
