Re: MONTREAL IMPACT (Impact de Montréal FC) New field at Stade Saputo ready for game day Laying grass was a successful project And the grass, cultivated and grown at the Gazonnière Bastien in Terrebonne for nine months, was even put in ahead of schedule, with just one week between sod and bulldozer to playing surface, culminating with the final placement of sod last Friday. “This is one of my biggest successes in terms of speed. All that’s left for the next few days is to correct some of the imperfections of the surface using a 6,000 lb. asphalt compactor,” added Roch Poulin, whose experience in grass resurfacing for golf courses all across Quebec is vast. “And now we have two extra days to perfect the pitch as we are ahead of schedule.” http://www.impactmontreal.com/en/news/2012/06/new-field-stade-saputo-ready-game-day

Re: MONTREAL IMPACT (Impact de Montréal FC) Loss in L.A. Felipe scored for a second consecutive game , California – The Montreal Impact, playing its second game in a series of five in 15 days, lost 2-1 (1-1 at half) to Chivas USA, Wednesday night, at the Home Depot Center. Chivas opened the scoring in the 14th minute off a corner kick from Cesar Moreno, when striker Juan Agudelo got a right foot volley on the ball near the six yard box that deflected off of the thigh of Alejandro Moreno, which beat Impact goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts to his right. Felipe then brought the Impact even in the 42nd minute from near the six-yard box. He put the ball down the right wing to Davy Arnaud, who slowed up and played a low cross to the short post, where Felipe was waiting to deflect the ball past Kennedy low, far post, for his second goal in as many games, and a second assist for captain Davy Arnaud this season. http://www.impactmontreal.com/en/news/2012/06/report-impact-loses-2-1-chivas-usa-home-depot-center

Re: MONTREAL IMPACT (Impact de Montréal FC) Impact reach verbal agreement with Nesta on 18-month deal MONTREAL – Alessandro Nesta was at Impact training on Thursday. He was wearing team colors. He is not, however, officially a member of the squad just yet. With the former AC Milan center back clad in Montreal blue and sharing a laugh with Marco Di Vaio in the background, sporting director Nick De Santis confirmed on Thursday that Nesta and Montreal had reached a verbal agreement on an 18-month deal. De Santis added that the club could make an official announcement in the coming hours once the paperwork is complete. The Italian center back’s contract will not be stamped with the Designated Player tag, and the Impact are hopeful that it will become effective in time for Nesta to take part in his first full training session with the team on Friday. Both parties came to an agreement in Miami last Saturday. Nesta, who had made the trip north to Stade Saputo the previous Wednesday for Marco Di Vaio’s MLS debut – a 3-0 loss to Toronto FC – entered talks with the Impact the next day. http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2012/07/05/impact-reach-verbal-agreement-nesta-18-month-deal
