Montreal’s new defensive tactics pose familiar problems for Columbus

The Montreal Impact remain a counter-attacking team, but as the side travels from Quebec down to MAPFRE Stadium for an MLS battle with Columbus Crew SC on Saturday, it is in the early stages of a recent shift from head coach Mauro Biello.

On June 10, on the road at Sporting Kansas City, Biello sent his team out on the field with three center backs for the first time all season, and the Impact have not changed that since.

The expectation is it will be more of the same on Saturday against Columbus, making it four games in a row.
