The Montréal Impact managed to sell out the brand spankin’ Saputo Stadium last Monday but Mother Nature didn’t want to collaborate. The Vancouver Whitecaps held the Impact to a 0-0 draw on opening day. No team found the net, so Saputo Stadium’s cherry has yet to be popped. The rain didn’t help at all, The sold out East End Stadium was Sold out but only about 10,000 people showed up and left gradually during the game. (After only 1 game, I’m pretty sure the Impact is the USL’s attendance leaders) However, Section 114 was chanting and dancing all day cheering on the hometeam. The Impact created many opportunities on offence but lacked finishing, however, the defence held the fort down well, with Matt Jordan making sure Eduardo Sebrango wasn’t going to be the 1st player to christen the Saputo Stadium. Nick Desantis’s boys showed some great spirit. New boys Pato Aguillera and Cedric Joqueviel played very well and Antonio Ribeiro is still an excellent option on the bench. All in all, the Impact managed to create a lot, it’s looking good for the future but we definitely need to start seeing some results from now on.
Allez L’Impact
L’Impact a fait face à Mère Nature en plus des Whitecaps Lundi dernier. Le Stade Saputo, sold out, a été témoin d’un match nul de 0-0 pour son inauguration. Par contre, la pluie et le mauvais temps a fait en sorte que plusieurs partisans sont restés à la maison et que les conditions climatiques rendaient le terrain lourd, ainsi affectant négativement le jeu au sol de l’Impact. Par contre, L’Impact méritait quand même la victoire ; la défensive a été solide tout au long de la rencontre et l’attaque a reussie a créer beaucoup d’occasion, malheureusement la finition ne s’est pas pointée au rendez-vous. AU moins la troupe a DeSantis commence à démontrer de belle chose. Di Lorenzo continue à bien gérer le milieu de terrain et Pato Aguillera semble être l’acquisition surprise. Il est solide sur les coups franc et possède une bonne vision du jeu et sait quand se lancer à l’Attaque. Stefano Pesoli et Cedric Jocqueviel démontre qu’ils sont d’excellent remplacant en défense. Les deux ont joués un match splendide et on voit bien que leur temps de réaction et d’anticipation est formé à l’européene. Il ne reste qu’à transformer ses aptitudes en points au classement !
Let’s go L’Impact !

Nice an Impact blog. I have to say I love the bilingualism of your posts. Why do you hate the French? Is it because you are Italian and Québécois?

Yes they indeed are, and I expect them to stay that way (been the USL attendance leader for a few years now). Here are my USL attendance numbers up to the Montreal vs Vancouver game at Saputo last week (I will update them about once a week from now on).

JUlien ; I don’t Hate the french, i just can’t stand them that’s all, being QuĂ©bĂ©cois and Italian kind of helps i agree
Lucas : 2 games 25 000 people have shown up. Let’s just see if this holds up.
