Montreal Impact kicks off crucial homestand against streaking Real Salt Lake
MONTREAL — With the Impact entering a stretch of three home games in eight days, midfielder Samuel Piette believes this is a pivotal point in Montreal’s season.
The Impact (6-6-3) open their longest home stand of the year against the streaking Real Salt Lake (6-6-1) on Wednesday night.
Montreal then hosts Orlando City on Saturday and the Seattle Sounders on June 5.
“I was talking with (defender) Zak Diallo and we said that we need at least seven points (from the next three games),” said Piette before training on Tuesday. “We don’t want to lose here. We need to win two games and make sure we don’t lose a game at home.”
