MONTREAL, April 27 (UPI) -- Andres Romero netted his first MLS Saturday and the Montreal Impact posted a 2-0 victory over Chicago.

The Argentine striker gave the Impact all the scoring they would need in the 57th minute when he took a pass from Andrea Pisanu on the left wing, got past a Chicago defender and put it in the top right corner.
