MONTREAL — CF Montreal will have to put their depth to the test this weekend.
Strikers Matias Coccaro, Josef Martinez, Kwadwo Opoku and Jules-Anthony Vilsaint are all out as Montreal hosts Orlando City SC in Major League Soccer play Saturday night.
Martinez, who had a goal and an assist after replacing Coccaro in the match, then limped out of training Wednesday. Head coach Laurent Courtois said his injury is less serious but the team is being cautious with the 30-year-old veteran. Despite the necessary changes to his starting lineup, Courtois said his game plan won’t change against Orlando — and he’s comfortable with his options.
“What makes a team good in MLS is your depth. I've been a part of some really good teams and that was the main thing,” he said. “There's guys that can step up and do a good job. So in the striker position it’s the next man up and I have full confidence in our strikers."
