MONTREAL – FC Montreal will play its eight game of the season and first one at the Complexe sportif Claude-Robillard this Saturday, May 21, at 3pm, when the New York Red Bulls II will be visiting.
The fans entrance and ticket sales will be made on the Southwest side of the field starting at 2pm. The cost is $5, with $1 going to the Montreal Impact Foundation. Admission is free for season ticket holders on presentation of their membership card. Fans will be allowed to sit on the West side in general admission.
FC Montreal will play its next 13 regular-season home games at Complexe sportif Claude-Robillard, which becomes the new home of the club’s USL team. Before arriving in MLS, the Impact first team played at Complexe sportif Claude-Robillard from 1993 to 2007.
In 2015, the Montreal Impact joined the USL with its FC Montreal team. The team is mostly composed of players coming from its Academy, which is part of the club’s development philosophy. This is the final step for the older Academy players before joining the first team.
FC Montreal’s head coach Philippe Eullaffroy is in his seventh season as Academy director in charge of the players’ development. He was head coach of the Trois-Rivières Attak in 2009, before being in charge of the Montreal Impact U21 and U23 team, and then FC Montreal after its foundation.
FC Montreal will then play its next home game on Saturday, June 4, at 3pm, against the Rochester Rhinos.
