Impact-Whitecaps FC Preview

Following an impressive victory at Vancouver over the weekend, the Montreal Impact won’t have to wait long for a chance to repeat that accomplishment against one of their national rivals when they visit the Whitecaps again on Wednesday night.

After Vancouver went up 1-0 on Theo Bair’s goal in the seventh minute Sunday, Montreal (5-4-1) roared back. Orji Okwonkwo scored eight minutes later to level the match and Saphir Taider, who also recorded two assists, put the Impact ahead for good via a penalty kick right before halftime. Samuel Piette made it 3-1 in the 51st minute and assisted on Romell Quioto’s goal on the hour to help send the visitors to a 4-2 triumph.

Since the resumption of the regular season, Montreal has gone 3-2-0 while playing all of its matches against Canadian rivals Vancouver and Toronto FC. Sunday’s result also left the Impact one win away from advancing
