“Everyone will be in the stands, there will be nobody in Saint-Alex, but we won’t shout it too loud,” explained Mathieu Choinière, laughing.
The reason is simple, we should be entitled to a first confrontation between Mathieu, 23, and his brother David, 25, a former Impact who plays at Hamilton’s Forge FC.
In the box that the group will occupy, the mood should be good-natured because it is shared.
“My friends will wear CF Montreal’s jersey and my brother’s will be orange,” said Mathieu.
“I was told by the family that they cut sweaters in half and sew them together. They say so after I don’t know if they did. »
The secret hovers
The two brothers had hoped to cross swords last year but Mathieu missed the meeting through injury.
“I hope to play and compete against my brother. I think it’s something everyone wants to see. I can’t wait.. to see [si ça va arriver] ‘ Mathieu realized.
Coincidence sees David developing into the right lane, which would put him against Mathieu, who plays on that side when he’s off to the side. But we can’t count on Wilfried Nancy to solve the mystery.
The CF Montreal head coach did not clearly answer journalists’ questions on the matter, but did not shut the door on a confrontation between the two brothers on Wednesday night.
