New England Revolution a familiar, formidable foe for Montreal Impact
MONTREAL — The Montreal Impact know exactly what they’re up against as they begin their Major League Soccer playoff journey, and coach Thierry Henry says the path forward isn’t easy.
“It’s going to be a tough one again,” he said on a video call Thursday. “That’s the story of our season.”
The Impact (8-13-2) are in the playoffs for the first time since 2016, but in order to move on from the play-in round, they’ll have to beat the New England Revolution (8-7-8) on Friday.
Montreal faced New England four times in regular-season action. Just one of those games resulted in an Impact win.
