It is only Wednesday and the New York Red Bulls don't play Montreal Impact until Sunday, so today's knock in training is little more than tomorrow's check-up with the physiotherapy team.
Still, Matteo Mancosu is Montreal's red-hot striker of the moment. He scored twice (and assisted once) in IMFC's opening win of the 2016 MLS playoffs: a surprisingly emphatic 4-2 win on the road against D.C. United. And it is his quite special goal that sends L'Impact to play RBNY at Red Bull Arena carrying a 1-0 lead in the two-game series.
