The Montreal Impact ended their pre-season stint in California with a 0-0 draw against the NCAA's UCLA Bruins, followed by a 3-1 win over USL's Ventura Country Fusion on Friday.
Brazilian midfielder Felipe opened the scoring against the Fusion at the 18th minute when he pounced on a loose ball in the 18-yard box. Midfielder Sinisa Ubiparipovic doubled the Impact's lead when he got on the end of a Miguel Montano cross, in the 44th minute.
Young forward Steven Miller scored the third goal, when he was put through on goal by Felipe, in the 64th minute.
The Fusion pulled one back with a well-taken free-kick by Danny Berreira in the 83rd minute.
Despite the earlier draw, Impact coach Jesse Marsch thought the Impact ended the camp in California on a positive note.
"UCLA came out well organized," Marsch said. "It was hard for us on a hot day to continue the tempo of the game and break them down. We did get a lot out of it in terms of fitness and competitiveness.
"We found more space in the game against Ventura County Fusion. We were able to create more chances and I think that the play and movement was better. To get the result and score some goals was obviously good as well."
Defender Calum Mallace, who took part in both games, explained that the team fatigue influenced the first result, but praised his teammates on putting in a good display today.
"You could see that there were some tired legs but everyone gave their all," Mallace said. "We would have liked a better result in the first game, but overall, it has been a great camp."
The Impact concluded the camp in Los Angeles with a record of 2-2-2, scoring six goals and conceding four.
The team will return to Montreal on Saturday before heading to Orlando to play the Walt Disney Pro Classic tournament, beginning Feb. 21.
