MONTREAL - The Montreal Impact will begin play in the 2019 Canadian Championship against York 9 FC on Wednesday, July 10, at York Lions Stadium, in North York, for the first leg in the quarter-final of the tournament. The Impact will then host the Canadian Premier League club on Wednesday, July 24, at Stade Saputo, at 7:30pm (TICKETS). This game is already included in the annual IMFC Membership.
Despite losing 1-0 Wednesday night in Edmonton, York 9 qualified for the next round by defeating FC Edmonton 3-2 on aggregate. In the previous round, Jim Brennan's men edged out AS Blainville 1-0 after a home-and-away series.
