Luca Langoni had a pair of goal contributions, keeper Matt Turner made five saves for the clean sheet, and the New England Revolution picked up a 3-0 victory over visiting CF Montreal on Saturday.


Langoni scored in the first half and set up Mamadou Fofana's first MLS goal as New England (2-3-0, 6 points) remains undefeated at home.


Peyton Miller had the other goal for the Revolution, which improved to 10-6-2 all-time in Foxborough against Montreal.


Montreal (1-5-0, 3 points) has dropped three straight with the loss at New England. Keeper Thomas Gillier made two saves.


Leading 1-0, Fofana doubled the Revolution's lead in the 77th minute, redirecting a through ball from Langoni past Gillier.


Then, in second half stoppage time, Miller chipped a strike up and over Gillier.


Montreal had a couple of glorious chances for the equalizer early in the second half.


Dawid Bugaj hit the crossbar with his strike from outside the area in the 58th minute, and Hennadii Synchuk forced Turner to make a save with a header off the rebound to keep Montreal off the board.


Langoni opened the scoring in the sixth minute, putting in the rebound off Dor Turgeman's strike for his first goal of the season. Gillier made the initial save off Turgeman's strike but was unable to corral the loose ball.


Montreal's first good chance came six minutes later as Efrain Morales put his header from the center of the area over the woodwork.


Turgeman nearly gave the Revolution a 2-0 lead in the 16th minute but put his strike from the center box off the post.


Then, in the 33rd minute, the header from Montreal's Brandan Craig was corralled by Turner.


Revolution head coach Marko Mitrovic was sent off with a red card in the 34th minute for coming out of the technical area to dispute the yellow card handed to Will Sands.


Saturday was the first of two meetings between Montreal and New England -- the two sides will reconvene north of the border on Aug. 1.
