ROONEY TEST, AS IMPACT CONCLUDES PRE-SEASON
Impact’s last meeting with Wayne Rooney & Co was quite a daunting one ....The countdown is almost complete. One more game, seven more days, and then … we’re off!
The new MLS season is just around the corner, and despite preferring to play top-class foreign opposition in their final pre-season game, Impact coach, Remi Garde is happy at least that his team will face a formidable opponent in DC United.
The men from the capital have had mixed fortunes at the Suncoast Invitational so far. They defeated hosts, Tampa Bay 1-0, then succumbed 1-2 to Philadelphia Union, Rooney scoring the consolation, off a through ball from Luciano Acosta.
