MONTREAL -- A match against the last-place Montreal Impact was exactly what Toronto FC needed to get out of its funk. Jim Lee Hunt Jersey . Toronto scored early and never looked back, beating the rival Impact 2-0 at Saputo Stadium on Saturday for their first win in five league games, and first road win since April. TFC manager Ryan Nelsen, whose team was coming off back-to-back losses against Sporting KC and D.C. United, knows just how important a win over a rival city can be. "Ive been on the wrong end of a few, and they dont feel good," said Nelsen. "It was nice to come into Montreal and get a win. Theyre a bit of a wounded animal, and they have some really dangerous players. They have a very good team and a very good coach who knows the league well. "Were not celebrating -- we didnt just win the Champions League. Well tick the box, and well move on." An early strike by Gilberto was all Toronto needed to cruise to victory on Saturday, before Luke Moore added an insurance goal for the visitors in the second half. With the win, TFC (8-7-5) leapfrogged the New England Revolution and now sit third in the Eastern Conference standings. The Impact (3-13-5), meanwhile, have lost a franchise-high six games in a row. Theyve been in the Eastern Conference basement for four months. Playing against the team they beat in the Amway Canadian Championship in early June did not give Montreal that much-needed spark. Instead, the Impact chased much of the ball in the first half, and went to the dressing room at the interval without a shot on target. Montreal made fewer passes, won fewer duels and had less possession than TFC throughout the game. Montreals three yellow cards were the product of late and frustrated tackles. "I thought we would come out with more fire," said Impact captain Patrice Bernier. "Its a derby, and youre playing TFC. They were in a bad spell, and were in a bad spell. We lost a lot of the battles, and we found our feet too late." Montreal put up more of a fight in the second half, but none of its four shots on target could beat goalkeeper Joseph Bendik. "I understand that not everybody understands the derby, but some guys have been here for three years," added Bernier. "You know how these games are intense and aggressive. Its frustrating and its difficult." Gilberto scored in the 11th minute when his shot from inside the 18-yard box rang off the crossbar and landed a foot across the goal-line. Impact goalie Troy Perkins smothered the ball, but the linesman confirmed it was a good goal. Perkins got the start in net, his first match since July 12 when a defensive mistake in the games final minute handed Sporting Kansas City the road victory. Backup keeper Evan Bush started between the uprights in the Impacts following three games -- all losses. Moore doubled Torontos lead in the 54th minute, beating Perkins to a loose ball in front of the net for an easy tap-in. U.S. international Michael Bradley got the play going when his stunning through ball from deep in his own half found a streaking Dominic Oduro. Impact defender Krzysztof Krol blocked Oduros shot, but the ball fell right into Moores path. "There was a little bit of space, and we all know that Dominics strength is his ability to run and get in behind guys," said the playmaker Bradley. "He did a great job of setting the guy up and made it a really easy decision for me. The movement was good. That was the goal that finished off the game at that point." Star striker Jermain Defoe missed the game with a possible sports hernia he may have sustained during Torontos midweek clash with D.C. United. "Hes been feeling his groin for a few weeks now," said Nelsen. "Remember, hes been going for over a year, pushing on. Its just to get these little niggles of your body, being worn down. Hopefully its nothing too bad, nothing too major." The former Tottenham Hotspur forward, acquired by TFC in January, will undergo a scan on Sunday to determine the severity of the injury. Defoe will likely miss this Wednesdays Major League Soccer all-star game. But Toronto didnt need its leading goal scorer on Saturday, relying on its two other forwards Gilberto and Moore for the goals. "In some ways, we were a bit desperate tonight," said Bradley, who finished the game with an assist and two shots on target. "After two games in a row, where for different reasons we didnt walk off the field with the results that we wanted, we really wanted to make sure that we gave a good performance tonight. The performance reflected that." This was Montreals first game since a midweek management shuffle that saw sporting director Nick De Santis moved to an administrative role. De Santiss demotion gave manager Frank Klopas full control of the squad. On Saturday, Klopas took full responsibility for the loss against Toronto. "At the end of the day, its tough because I know we put a lot into it," he said. "We were very flat. Im ready to do whats in the best interest of the club. Just from an energy standpoint, we didnt do enough. We did too much, we were tired, the heat - those are all excuses." Of the 16,665 people in attendance at Saputo Stadium on Saturday, several hundred donned red and white TFC jerseys and made a lot of noise throughout the match. "The support was absolutely amazing," said Nelsen. "If theyve travelled up from Toronto -- or wherever theyve come from -- all the guys and the coaching staff are so appreciative of what they did and they really made themselves heard. When you play on a Wednesday, in hot conditions, that really helps." Montreal plays its first CONCACAF Champions League match against El Salvadors FAS at home on Tuesday. Notes: Dilly Duka, 24, acquired from the Chicago Fire in exchange for Sanna Nyassi on Tuesday, came on as a substitute in the 74th minute. à Forward Anthony Jackson-Hammel, who will be 21 on Sunday, made his first appearance with the Impact since signing a professional contract on Friday. à The last time these two clubs faced each other, Montreal recorded a 1-0 victory at home to repeat as winners of the Amway Canadian Championship. Corey Dillon Jersey .5 million contract, according to a person familiar with the deal. Hatcher agreed to terms Thursday, according to a person who spoke on condition of anonymity because the contract had not been signed. John Brodie Jersey . Irving played 10 minutes Sunday night before going to the locker room. He had two points and four assists, missing all five of his shots.

LOUIS - The St.WILLIAMSBURG, Va. -- Lizette Salas didnt have to wait long to be tested in her latest attempt at a breakthrough victory on the LPGA Tour. The challenge came on the first hole Sunday in the Kingsmill Championship, after she was overly cautious with her first putt, leaving it nearly 10 feet short of the cup with a sliding, downhill test to save par. She made it, the start of a day when she did little wrong on her way to a four-shot victory. "Yeah, that was a big putt just to start off the day," Salas said. "Downhill slider to the right. I mean, I even threw in a fist pump because I knew how important that was for me mentally and on a confidence standpoint." The 24-year-old Salas made it look easy the rest of the way, even while shooting just an even-par 71 on the River Course. Salas started the day with a three-shot lead, doubled it with birdies on the par-5 third and par-3 fifth. A bogey on the par-4 eighth was her only hiccup -- and only her third bogey in four rounds -- until she three-putted the par-3 17th. She finished at 13-under 271 and earned $195,000. Yani Tseng, Kraft Nabisco winner Lexi Thompson and Sarah Jane Smith tied for second. Salas was never really challenged in the final round on the River Course, and when her final putt fell on the 18th hole, she cupped her head in her hands and covered her face in celebration. Her winning moment was quickly interrupted, however, when four fellow players arrived and doused her with champagne, water and wine. The victory came after Salas flirted with victory several times in her three years on tour. It also came after she missed the cut two weeks ago and realized she needed to change her mental approach to give herself a fighting chance. "I felt like I wanted to be perfect all the time," she said. "I felt like I needed to play like a top tier golfer every week. Thats not it. Its about feeling confident. Golf is a sport where you cant control everything. ... I just took a step back and looked at golf differently. I just tried to have fun this week. That was the most important thing." This year, she tied for third in the season-opening event in the Bahamas and shared the lead after three rounds in the Kia Classic in her home staate of California, but Anna Nordqvist closed with a 5-under 67 -- to Salas 70 -- to win by one. Ken Willard Jersey. Last year, playing alongside winner Inbee Park in the final group of the Kraft Nabisco, Salas shot 79 to tie for 25th. Two weeks later, Salas lost a playoff to Suzann Pettersen in the LPGA LOTTE in Hawaii. Salas chunked her approach into the water on the first extra hole after closing with a tournament-record 62. The daughter of Mexican immigrants, Salas was introduced to the game when her father, the head mechanic at Azusa Greens west of Los Angeles, did some handyman jobs for the club pro and, instead of pay, asked him to teach his daughter to play. She went on to star at Southern California, where she was a four-time All-America selection and helped the Trojans win the 2008 NCAA title. The victory came on a rare weekend when her parents didnt come to the tournament, but watched from their home in California, and it brought tears to the eyes of Hall of Famer Nancy Lopez, who has been a mentor of sorts for Salas. "Im crying. Im so proud of her," Lopez said by telephone after watching the celebration on the green. "She looked great out there, just very confident and swinging great. ... Like she said on TV, she was ready. It was time." Salas expects "some tears of happiness" when she sees her parents Monday. Tseng, seeking her first victory since 2012, got within three with three birdies in a four-hole stretch on the back nine, but she finished with two pars and a double bogey for a 69, expanding Salas lead to five shots. Thompson had a 69, and Smith shot 66 -- the best round of the day. Tseng nearly made it very interesting at the par-5 15th, but her eagle putt stopped just short of the cup. "One more roll it will be in," she said. "I know if I make that I have a good chance." The tournament also featured a golf rarity, a double eagle. It was scored by Frenchwoman Joanna Klatten on No. 15. Klatten said her drive left her a perfect distance away for her 3-wood, and she had a feeling something great was coming. "Its intuition. I had a good feeling about that shot," she said. "Of course there is a little bit of luck in that." ' ' '
