Impact announce sellout of 61004 for MLS playoff game against rival TFC

The post Montreal Impact Dominic Oduro excited with win over Toronto FC in the first leg of MLS Eastern Conference finals appeared first on Football Ghana. “That means they did better than us during the season”, Biello said.

Didier Drogba has confirmed he will be leaving Montreal Impact, when his contract expires in December this year.

Perhaps the best opportunity fell to Justin Morrow, who stormed down the left side late in the first half and forced Montreal keeper Evan Early in the second half, Victor Cabrera made a vital block as the Italian worldwide found space in the Montreal area.

The 38-year-old former Chelsea striker spoke to reporters following Tuesday’s Eastern Conference Championship first leg victory over Toronto FC.

“I don’t know. In the end, it was a great night for the league and the two cities”. “I don’t think we’ll be afraid or in awe of the 60,000, we’ll just try to use it as motivation because if we play well, the 60,000 will give us an extra push”. “But I still think we have a good team”.

“I had one and a half years of good emotions”, he said of his time in Montreal. Road goals are the first tiebreaker in the semifinals, so the fact Toronto scored twice at the Big O could end up being huge. When we talk about history, that’s what this series can bring to soccer in this country. There weren’t a lot of things going well for us during the game, [but] we managed to find a few margins we could tilt it in our favor, and get a couple goals.

“Nothing went how we would have liked tonight. But there’s still some room to break some more records”.

Drogba is now on his way out of the club after all, though, with the Ivorian confirming he will leave once the MLS season reaches its conclusion. Montreal looking confident were unprepared for the arrival of Tosaint Ricketts and Will Johnson into the game.

Asked about his future after Tuesday’s win, he said: “There’s still one or maybe two games to go”.

A second return to Chelsea couldn’t happen, could it? If Toronto scores an away goal, NYCFC will have to score four goals to advance.

“You see, it depends how you see it”, said Drogba, who came off the bench to replace Mancosu in the 71st minute. “We love our fans and it’ll be more full than it’s ever been and the noise will be in our favour this time”.
