Didier Drogba show continues at Montreal Impact after DC United win

Didier Drogba continues to dominate the MLS after netting a brace in the 2-0 win over DC United to bring his total to seven goals in five starts for Montreal Impact.

Didier Drogba maintained his flying start in the MLS by scoring both goals in Montreal Impact's 2-0 win over DC United at The Saputo Stadium.

The Chelsea legend made it six goals in five starts after his free kick found the top corner within just four minutes of kickoff against United.

It was two seven minutes later when Drogba drilled past Bill Hamid at his near post to fatten Impact's handsome lead.

In a fast and furious start, the visitors almost threw up an instant riposte when goalkeeper Evan Bush kept out striker Fabian Espindola at the other end moments later.

Markus Halsti looked certain to reduce the arrears in the second minute of stoppage time, but the DC defender managed to blaze over from point-blank range.

Drogba, 37, led Montreal's pursuit of a third and killer goal, and the veteran marksman almost found one when his curling effort whistled wide of Hamid's post just before the hour mark.

Victory ensured that the Impact have now won four and drawn one of the five games in which Drogba has started.
