¡Razones para ir a un partido del Montreal Impact en el Estadio Saputo este verano!

  With the Montreal sports market being predominantly dominated by the Montreal Canadiens, the Montreal Impact are generally considered to be a secondary or tertiary option (Alouettes) for Montreal sports. While the Canadiens sellout win or lose, it is a different story with the Impact. Coming from a smaller market the team is heavily dependant on performance for ticket sales. The Impact has had a couple of difficult past seasons and with Impact superstar, Nacho Piatti leaving Montreal for his childhood club, and a vacant position for a coach, there wasn’t much room for optimism for the upcoming 2020 season so management had to make some key decisions.   The Impact decided to bring in probably one of the best strikers of this generation as head coach with Thierry Henry (and if you don’t know him, check out his highlights on youtube, you will not be disappointed, we promise.). In addition to having such a prolific coach like Thierry Henry, his stardom alone creates a gravitational pull which makes other good players naturally gravitate towards him to play for the team he is building. This “Henry Effect” managed to sign two new players who offer quite a bit of promise in Luis Binks and Victor Wanyama from the Tottenham Hotspurs (a very popular and famous English Premier League team). As opposed to the last couple of seasons, the Impact was a more defensive team but Henry style demands more offense to be played and who doesn’t enjoy seeing more goals? Given these reasons, this season promises to be an exciting new chapter for the Montreal Impact.

¿Qué experiencia de asientos es la mejor para ti?

Lo bueno del Estadio Saputo es que hay 3 formas distintas de disfrutar el partido, sin importar la edad ni las preferencias.

Family Corner - Nutrilait

Esta sección del Estadio Saputo normalmente se reserva para que los niños y las familias disfruten los partidos a su ritmo. Se encuentra en las secciones 116-118. Ofrece una gran vista desde la esquina del estadio, un excelente lugar para ver toda la acción. Lo bueno de estos boletos es que, si los presentas en el mostrador de conserjería, te ayudarán si olvidaste cosas para tus hijos como bloqueador solar, cobijas, ponchos, gel antibacterial, etc. Estos boletos también son accesibles, así que es una gran forma de pasar una tarde o noche en familia disfrutando de un ambiente relativamente tranquilo y amistoso.

Asientos casuales

Estos son los asientos normales que se pueden comprar, aparte de la sección 132, de la que hablaremos en un momento. Los boletos disponibles aquí varían de precio según la sección. Naturalmente, los boletos más cercanos al centro de la cancha costarán más, alrededor de 70-95$ (según el precio en Stubhub), mientras que fácilmente puedes conseguir buenos asientos en otras secciones por 30-40$ por persona. Estos boletos son ideales si no tienes nada que hacer una tarde o noche y quieres pasar el rato con amigos o con tu pareja. También puedes organizar salidas corporativas en las que la organización trabajará contigo para que todos se sienten en una misma fila. Lo mejor de todo es que te da una excusa para salir de casa y disfrutar el dulce verano de Montreal y desconectar un poco el cerebro mientras te entretienes con buen fútbol profesional.

Sección 132/Impact Ultras

The Ultras are the hardcore die-hard Montreal Impact fans. The group was founded in 2002 and still live by their motto of “always faithful” as they follow the Impact all over North America when they play away from Saputo Stadium. The group’s primary goal is supporting the club by chanting, jumping, standing for the whole 90 minutes of the game. The section is clearly noticeable because of the sea of the blue-white and black Impact and the general ambiance and party atmosphere they create. The use of drums and other instruments alongside visual animations such as enormous flags, banners, and cheers is quite the spectacle to see especially if you have never seen it in person before. The Ultras try to replicate the European-type soccer fans which are considerably larger in Europe. If you manage to get a seat in this section, be prepared to stand for 90 minutes and expect to join in on the chanting and jumping (Even if you don’t know the chants, you will pick them up fairly quickly as they are simple.). If your goal is to have a good time with some of the Impact’s most passionate fans this is the section for you.   What’s really great about the ultras is that they try to include the rest of the stadium with the chants so even if you are not sitting in section 132 there will always be people chanting along so why not join in on the fun?    Currently, the Montreal Impact are off to a promising start so far this season and we can only hope for great performances this season because Montreal deserves a good soccer team.
