Bjorn Johnsen s first two goals of his MLS career lifted CF Montreal to a 2-0 victory over host Inter Miami on Wednesday night in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Johnsen, a 29-year-old Norwegian international who was born in New York City and raised in North Carolina, ended a scoring drought for the Impact (2-1-2, 8 points), who had been shut out in their previous two matches.
Montreal snapped a three-match winless streak despite enduring a two-hour, 21-minute weather delay after the game was halted in the 47th minute. Miami finished with a possession edge for the first time this season (51.9 percent), but Montreal had the advantage in shots (11-6) and shots on goal (4-1).

Despite solid performances to open its second MLS season, Inter Miami is still seeking its first victory at home as it prepares to face CF Montreal on Wednesday night in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.
Both squads enter the match tied in the standings, but trending in opposite directions.
Inter Miami (1-1-2, 5 points) is on a three-match unbeaten streak thanks to the heroics of Lewis Morgan, whose goal in the 77th minute on Sunday salvaged a 1-1 draw against Atlanta United.
Since a season-opening victory against Toronto FC, Montreal (1-1-2, 5 points) has failed to win in three consecutive matches and hasn t scored in its past two. The Impact dropped their most recent match last Saturday at Vancouver 2-0.
