Scores 96th minute equaliser in 4-4
Synchuk scored one goal to go with five shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 4-4 draw against D.C. United.
Analysis: Synchuk came on with 23 minutes to go in the game at 3-2 and scored the 86th-minute goal, which put the scoreline to 4-4. He was assisted by Prince-Osei Owusu, who scored the other three Montreal goals. This was the youngsters' first goal of the season, having taken part in eight games so far this season.

Features off bench
Synchuk (undisclosed) came off the bench for five minutes in Saturday's 2-0 loss against Chicago, contributing one shot, four crosses and three corners in his return to competitive action, the club posted.
Analysis: Synchuk had been sidelined for two consecutive matches with an undisclosed issue, making his return to the matchday squad a welcome development for CF Montreal. The attacking midfielder should push to regain his starting role on the right wing heading into the last week of MLS before the World Cup break.
Trains with therapist
Synchuck (undisclosed) was training with the assistance with the team training on Wednesday, per Maxime Truman of DL Coulisses.
Analysis: Synchuk remains doubtful for Saturday as he required assistance during training. His injury has yet to be disclosed, missing the last two matches because of it. The midfielder will look to train fully this week as the team remains optimistic on his return in May.
