The village of Saint-Alexandre, in Montérégie, will be quiet Wednesday evening. A busload of residents will be at Stade Saputo…
“Everyone will be in the stands, there will be no one at Saint-Alex, but we’re not going to shout it too loud,” explained Mathieu Choinière with a laugh.
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 with Forge FC in Hamilton.
The atmosphere is likely to be good-natured in the box that the group will occupy because it will be divided.
“My friends are going to wear the CF Montreal jersey and my brother’s will be more orange,” Mathieu said.
“The family, I was told that they cut sweaters in half and sewed them together. That’s what they say, after that I don’t know if they did it. »
The mystery hovers
The two brothers hoped to be able to cross swords last year, but Mathieu missed the meeting due to an injury.
“I hope to play and face my brother. I think it’s something everyone wants to see. I can’t wait to see [if it will happen],” Mathieu acknowledged.
By chance, David evolves in the right lane, which would oppose him to Mathieu who plays on this side when he is lateral. But we must not count on Wilfried Nancy to dispel the mystery.
The head coach of CF Montreal did not clearly answer questions from journalists on this subject, however not closing the door to a confrontation between the two brothers on Wednesday evening.
