CF Montreal continues at home with it’s pre-season training camp before completing in Florida and moving on to Mexico for the club’s first competitive game of the season.
It’s quite unusual in world terms that any club’s season-opener should be one of it’s biggest games of the season, a high-profile round of 16 tie in continental competition.
To put it into a European context it’s like Chelsea going up against Real Madrid in a UEFA Champions League last 16 tie in their first match of the season. Absolutely unthinkable! Would never happen!
But such is life in CONCACAF.
