I know this will not be the most popular thread here on MERB. But I want to reach the few soccer fan like me out here.

Soccer is growing a lot in america and that is good. Soccer is the ONLY true worldwide team sport played in every country, and most important, accessible to all (poor, rich, black, yellow, whatever...).

Of course I am a Montreal Impact fan (holding season ticket since their entry in the MLS). In a few days they will play in semi-final against Toronto. I am a bit torn because myself and my youngest son (who is an 8 years old 2-3 goals a game soccer player :) ) are both big fan of Toronto's Sebastian Giovinco as he is just stellar. This short player at 5' 4'', along with Messi wich is 5' 6'', my height, are proof that soccer can be played at the highest level even for short people. I love that!

So let's exchange here if there is any soccer fan like me. And let's root that Impact win the first Canadian MLS cup :)

Cheers,

p.s. Mods, I search and have not found an MLS thread, if there is well just merge that post.

Will root for Impact but curious to see who gets the crowd that night as Habs play in Bell Centre at the same time as Impact in Olympic Stadium

Also while I know its freezing out I think they should play in Saputo versus the decaying mess that is Olympic Stadium

2 nil for Impact after 12 minutes! 2 magistral goal wow!

Those who know soccer, look at the pass Bernier delivers to Oyoungo on the first goal, you cannot get it better than this!

Gut check time for Impact

3-0 to 3-2 with 20 minutes to play

Road goals are huge so a 3-3 tie would be a disaster

Exactly! So the disaster is limited with the 3 - 2 win. They now need to win or draw a tie next game in toronto. It was a great game but down the road Toronto still gave themselve a chance to win this.

For those of you gamblers out there, Impact are +1.25 -110 tonight which I personally think is a nice bet

What Toronto did in the second half in Montreal (scoring 2 goals), shifted the momentum around. They gave themselve a chance. And not being at home, I would say the 1 goal advantage Montreal has right now is very slim. This is an historic game for Canada. Go Impact!!

It hurts right now, but what I game!! :) Bring Drogba in, only him can make a difference for Montreal right now. Toronto's Giovinco has not scored in 2 games, he will soon...

It's a squared at 2 right now. Toronto must win by at least one goal in order to win the series. Go Toronto!!

(but easy on the smoke whenever TFC scores)

No, at 3 - 2 TFC they go into overtime because it's the same score as game 1 in Montreal. Then in Overtime first who scores goes to the final.
