Games played on Aug. 8, 2015

COMMERCE CITY, Colo. (AP) - Kei Kamara scored twice in the second half to regain the MLS goals lead in the Columbus Crew's 2-1 comeback victory over the Colorado Rapids on Saturday night.

Kamara has 17 goals in 24 games to move a goal ahead of Toronto FC's Sebastian Giovinco.

The Crew (9-8-7) tied it in the 52nd minute when Kamara made a diagonal run to the left side of the area and fired a left-footed, turn-around shot inside the far post. He slotted home Hector Jimenez's cross 12 minutes later.

Bobby Burling scored for Colorado (5-8-9) in the 42nd minute, rising high to head in Vicente Sanchez's free kick.

D.C. UNITED 1, IMPACT 0

MONTREAL (AP) - Chris Rolfe scored early and Bill Hamid was strong in goal in D.C. United's victory over Montreal.

Eastern Conference-leading United (13-7-5) won its third straight, and ended Montreal's unbeaten streak at three games. The Impact dropped to 8-9-4.

Rolfe scored in the 13th minute.

With central defender Laurent Ciman sitting out a one-game suspension, the Impact started a young back line that was victimized early when Victor Cabrera mishandled a ball under pressure and Jairo Arrieta slid it to Rolfe, who went in alone and beat Evan Bush. It was Rolfe's third goal in two games.

WHITECAPS 4, REAL SALT LAKE 0

VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) - Cristian Techera scored twice and Octavio Rivero and Pa-Modou Kah added goals to help Vancouver beat Real Salt Lake.

Vancouver (13-8-3) stretched its Western Conference lead to four points over FC Dallas and tied a franchise mark for victories in a season with 10 games left. Salt Lake dropped to 7-9-8.

Techera made it 3-0 in the 50th minute from a tight angle off a pass from Jordan Harvey that Rivero just missed poking in himself. Techera added his second in the 68th minute from distance, blasting a shot past Attinella after a free kick for his fourth of the season.

Feilhaber opened the scoring on the penalty kick in the 20th minute for his eighth goal of the season.

Micheal Bradley tied it for Toronto in the 22nd, and Kansas City pulled ahead in the 29th on Krisztian Nemeth's header off Feilhaber's free kick. Nemeth also has eight goals this season.

Jacob Peterson completed the scoring in the 87th minute.
