Dealing with psoas discomfort
Owusu felt a small discomfort in his psoas at the end of the match in Philadelphia, according to manager Philippe Eullaffroy, who added it does not appear serious and that Owusu is doing well, with the issue seemingly linked to his recent accumulation of minutes, per Maxime Truman of DL Coulisses.
Analysis: Owusu missed Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Charlotte and is a doubt for Saturday's clash against Colorado. He leads Montreal with 13 goals and six assists across 22 appearances this season, though he has now gone two consecutive matches without a goal contribution, including a missed penalty in the recent loss to Philadelphia Union, and his status will continue to be monitored as the club approaches the weekend fixture.
Denied from penalty spot
Owusu registered three shots (two on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Philadelphia Union.
Analysis: Owusu registered three shots (two on target) in Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Philadelphia, having a second-minute goal ruled out for offside before seeing his stutter-step penalty saved by Andre Blake in the second half when his side were still in the match at 1-0. The Ghanaian forward leads Montreal with 13 goals and six assists across 22 appearances this season but has now gone two consecutive matches without a goal contribution, with the penalty miss the decisive individual moment of a match his side could have made very different.
Scoring streak continues
Owusu scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal), two crosses (two accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Los Angeles Galaxy.
Analysis: Owusu continues to pile up the goals for Montreal, finding the net again Saturday for his fourth straight match with a goal. He now has 13 goals on the season, matching his total from 2025 and putting him on pace for a career year. Over his last six league appearances, the forward has averaged 3.6 shots per game while creating 10 chances and recording 10 shots on target.
Scores opener Saturday
Owusu scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal), two crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 2-1 win against Columbus Crew.
Analysis: Owusu started the scoring early with a goal in the 5th minute assisted by Hennadii Synchuk. It marked his 12th goal of the campaign and he's now scored in three consecutive matches. He also recorded two accurate crosses and one chance created but was unable to add to his tally of six assists on the season. He was subbed off in the 79th minute for Alexis Sanchez.
Finds back of net in draw
Owusu scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus New England Revolution.
Analysis: Owusu nodded home a perfect cross from Luca Petrasso to even things up for Montreal, completing a comeback and snatching a point after going down 2-0 in the first half. Owusu is putting up even better numbers than last year. He had 13 goals and three assists in 34 appearances (32 starts) in 2025, but he's up to 10 goals and six assists in just 17 contests (16 starts) in 2026.
Available again after suspension
Owusu is no longer suspended after serving his one match ban during Thursday's 0-0 draw against Toronto.
Analysis: Owusu's suspension stemmed from yellow card accumulation after his hat trick performance against D.C. United, and with the ban now served, he is available to regain his spot in Montreal's starting lineup. His return gives the club back its most dangerous attacking option after Daniel Rios filled in during his absence, and Owusu should slot right back into the front line now that he is available.
Hat-trick before yellow card
Owusu scored three goals and provided one assist in Saturday's 4-4 draw against D.C. United before picking up a yellow can that will make him serve a one-match ban due to yellow card accumulation. He will miss the clash against Toronto on July 16 following the World Cup break, according to the league.
Analysis: Owusu was brillant on Saturday, scoring a hat-trick and providing one assist before picking up a yellow card. He is an undisputed starter in the front line for Montreal and his absence will force a reshuffle in attack, with Daniel Rios expected to take on a larger role in his place during the suspension. Owusu is set to return to the starting lineup once the ban has been served and MLS action continues after the tournament.
Offensive effort Saturday
Owusu generated three shots (one on goal) and three chances created in Saturday's 2-0 win against Orlando City.
Analysis: Owusu registered three successful dribbles in addition to his finishing and playmaking numbers, but it wasn't enough for him to get involved in the scoring, ending a run of three league games with at least one goal or assist. The striker has posted multiple shots in two consecutive contests and is expected to remain Montreal's primary threat up front. He's still the team's leader in the most important attacking categories, having found the net six times and assisted five goals over 11 matches played in the 2026 MLS campaign.
Earns assist
Owusu assisted once to go with three shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-1 loss against Atlanta United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 44th minute.
Analysis: Owusu added to his amazing 2026 goal contribution tally on Saturday, as the forward earned an assist on Matthew Longstaff's sixth-minute goal. This is now a third straight match with a goal contribution for the forward, with two goals and four assists during that span. He is now up to six goals and five assists this season.
Another goal Saturday
Owusu scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 win versus New York City FC.
Analysis: Osei-Owusu continues to tear it up in the league with another goal, which ultimately decided the win Saturday. Through six games, the forward has six goals with four assists, collecting 11 shots with nine chances created and making six tackles in the process as he is on his way to break his season total from 2025 at this current pace.
