Impact 1 – Railhawks 1
By: Franck |

It’s nice to lose 2 needed points on a clumsy defensive play, but I guess a point is better than a loss.
The team came out to play, but it seemed to me that it was quite difficult to get any real offense going. A well-placed kick from outside the box by Adam Braz was good [...]

Pre-Game: Impact vs Railhawks
By: Franck | No Comments
The first of two home games against the Carolina Railhawks. We haven’t played them yet this season, and it’s almost September. As my dear colleague Lee over at the Whitecaps Offside has stated in some posts a short while ago, the USL schedule is plainly fucked.
It is what it is, I suppose.
The Railhawks bring [...]

Bear with me here folks, I’m feeling as giddy as a teenage girl.
We won! We like, totally, like, won! Peter Byers(making a totally rare start) scored! OMG really? And so did Mauro Biello?
We like, totally played awesomely. Cleveland just couldn’t match our overwhelming coolness. And anyway, our uniforms were like waaay more stylin’! Like, [...]

By: Franck | No Comments
One tiny mistake and the Timbers ran off with 3 points.
Thanks to a defensive error on behalf of Simon Gatti and Cédric Joqueviel, the Impact conceded a late second-half goal in an otherwise perfect match defensively. Adam Braz kicked one scoring attempt on the goal line and made a few key tackles in a [...]

Tonight’s a big match, folks: we face the USL-1 leaders Portland Timbers in the first game of the final third of the season. We’re one game under .500, at 7-8-5, with 22 Goals For and 23 Goals Against. The Timbers, on the other hand, are 11-1-9, with 32 GF and only 11 GA. This [...]

We did it. We won. We beat the Minnesota Thunder.
We now stand alone in the 6th spot in USL-1, with ten games to play.
The Impact had a boatload of chances, missing most of them, but scoring one when it counted. Roberto Brown’s goal in the 51st minute was the decisive marker in a [...]

Well, we somehow tied River Plate.
In a Saputo Stadium full of Argetine fans, many of whom apparently made the trip from New York, and who braved the downpour. River fielded 8 6 out of 11 starters for this friendly, which lost a bit of pace due to the slippery conditions.
It rained like a bitch, [...]

Time for another morale-boosting match.
After tying our last three road matches, with the last two being games we should have easily won, our club will try to play a decent friendly against a team much much stronger than ours, CA River Plate of Buenos Aires. The goal will be the same as with last week’s [...]

Ughh.
30 seconds.
Just like Santos Laguna.
We needed three points, we got one. Blowing it in the final minute of extra time in the second half, the Impact gave up a tying goal to prevent our team from getting three points and moving ahead of Miami FC. On the bright side, that’s our third road tie in [...]
