The Impact are coming off a 1-0 loss to Toronto in the Nutrilite Canadian Championship and that result lead to the firing of John Limniatis the next day. Considering the form they have been during the early part of the USL-1 season (one point in four matches) and the result of the CONCACAF Champions League quarter-finals exit in the hands of Santos Laguna you can see why the front office let him go. They hired Marc Dos Santos as their interim head coach of the team. But there is no rest for him and the Impact as they take on the Charleston Battery tomorrow evening at 6:45 pm CST and then 2 days later against the Aztex.
Meanwhile the Aztex (6 points in four matches) need to get their 2nd win of the season. One of the issue that they need to prepare for Montreal is to not to start slow and conceded the goals early in the games that the Aztex have to come back to find the equalizer. That resulted in the 3 draws that the Aztex produced and you can not afford to drop points at home. Plus they need to get their players fit as there are rumors that some players won't make the trip due injuries. So their roster depth is put to the test. So lets hope they can get a massive 3 points on the road against a struggling (hopefully still after Friday's match) Montreal team.
In other Aztex news, the Austin Aztex U-23 PDL team won their first match of the season (4 points in 3 matches) in Waco as they defeated the DFW Tornados 4-2. You can check out the match report from Chantico Army member that made the trip to Waco yesterday.
What a bunch of lovely fellas. ;-)
