When the Montreal Impact made a loan move for Matteo Mancosu earlier this season, no one thought he would be their hero in the playoffs. With Didier Drogba out of the team picture, the Italy international has stepped up his game. He is the unlikely hero that may lead this club to a deep run in the postseason.
Mancosu has scored three goals in Montreal’s first two playoff games. In their first game on the road, he scored two goals and recorded one assist against D.C. United in a game Montreal won 4-2.
