All three Canadian teams are playing in the MLSisBack Tournament's round of 16, which kicks off tonight. How can the trio advance even further? GalindoPW breaks down one key to victory for each of VWFC, IMFC and TFCLive 👇
The only issue entering the round of 16 for the Impact is the attack. Against D.C., a lot of the team’s buildup was generated on the left flank. Eventually, the right side became more involved but 0.61 xG from seven shots is not acceptable.
Even though they lost to Toronto FC, that was the Impact’s attacking display of the tournament. The forwards were connecting, the entire team was executing dangerous runs into the box and it led to three goals. The second half also saw a formation switch from three to four at the back, which coincided with an increase in shots.Key for round of 16: Utilize the Piatti-Pozuelo connection
Pozuelo leads all players in key passes and shot-creating actions , with Piatti racking up six and 10, respectively. With Pozuelo operating as the central playmaker, he’ll rack up stronger stats but Piatti is still integral.
