I actually <i>went</i> to the Montreal Olympic stadium to watch the first leg: everyone was so happy the Impact won, singing their praises bla bla bla. The sad reality of things is that a team which is incapable of holding the ball and manages to concede 4 goals in 20 minutes does not <i>deserve</i> to be in the semi-finals. Absolute disgrace.

Their defending was slack. I thought the Impact played decent football, but they were outclassed. Santos has serious quality passing, skills on the ball, and striking. And Santos always *knew* they should win, they knew they were so much better they could take the game in a moment, and basically they did. Criminy, though, how could Montreal have thrown it all away?! The Impact *knew* they had it in the bag and they were walking. Their defending was slack.

This was the first CL game I watched and was about to turn it off around the 50th minute, but something in way that Santos was playing kept me glued till the end. What a game! To be fair, the Impact are in preseason and have only played one other 90 minute game. It definitely showed in the last 20 minutes. What an amazing second half.
