Rivalry Or Not?: Even Altidore Is on the Fence

A week and half after the Montreal Impact’s win against Toronto FC, it seems that the banter is not over. Armen Bedakian of theScore released a statement from the American forward Jozy Altidore:

Altidore on the 401 Derby/Impact:

"That's not a rivalry though. To be a rival, you've got to win stuff, you know what I mean? Just saying. I love Montreal. It's a great city. I love going there and hanging out. It's cool. But you gotta win something ... No disrespect though."— Armen Bedakian (@ArmenBedakian) March 27, 2018

With reason, the comment is not sitting well with Impact fans; most times when you say no disrespect it is because the comment is disrespectful.
