The Montreal Impact played their season opener on Saturday versus the Seattle Sounders at the Olympic Stadium in front of nearly 35,000 spectators. The Impact showed an important improvement from last week’s performance against the Quakes. The Bleu-Blanc-Noir seemed alert this week and the accuracy of their crosses drastically improved from last week. In fact, last week we connected on 17% of our crosses while this week we connected on over 70%.
Our improved play allowed us to grab a 2-0 lead but then we slowed down in the final minutes of the match and that allowed the Sounders to equalize the score at two.
