The postponement and rescheduling of CF Montreal’s Concacaf Champions League game against Santos Laguna of Mexico spells good news for Orlando City.
The Lions would have been the fresher side heading into Sunday’s MLS opener anyhow, but now that advantage comes into even sharper focus with Montreal’s huge game just 4 days previously, which has the potential to go to 120 minutes and penalties.
The circumstances are beyond anyone’s control seemingly, except for the Man above, inclement weather being the cause.
The delay was confirmed shortly after 6pm on Monday evening with concerns over freezing rain combined with restrictions on the weight of the roof.
