2016 Team of the Week - DL

The Montreal Impact have split the points with a lot of teams over the past couple of months, but that wasn't the case against the Philadelphia Union on Saturday night.


The Impact dominated their Eastern Conference foe to the tune of 5-1 on the back of standout performances from their star players.


Didier Drogba broke out of his slump to net a hat trick and Ignacio Piatti pulled all the strings on the way to a 1-goal, 2-assist evening. Left back Ambroise Oyongo even got in on the act, providing two assists of his own.
