    We've also shown to be effective in absorbing pressure for periods of the game within the 3-5-2 and not conceding. We did that a lot last year, then spring and score.

    We need to play strong up front. They had great possession of the ball, and midfield control, but their defense was a major weakness and it showed with all of the chances we had.

    Almost positive this game is in fact at 11:00PM, not 10:00PM.
    If you google "TFC Schedule" it says 11:00PM as well as the fact that the game is listed as a 9:00PM local time start on Ticket Master Mexico...
    Monterrey is usually 1 hr behind us, meaning 9:00PM Local is 10:00PM here, however, they will be 2 hrs behind us next Tues as their daylight savings time isn't until early April...

    We can do this. If a a 0-9 2012 TFC team can take a 2-1 lead vs. Santos Laguana anything is possible. Key is not to concede early. The longer we can keep it at 0-0 the more likely that we catch Tigres on the break.

    I feel like Zavaletta needs to be benched. His passing was woeful last night. I can see him costing us the game with a silly giveaway. Can VDW play right CB?

    ....
    Both TFC & the official CONCACAF site say 10 pm ET

    All 4 CONCACAF quarter finals have been 8 pm eastern equivalent starts followed by 10 pm starts


    Its the 2 hour window that is important here.


    That having been said, it wouldn't put it past CONCACAF to not remember that its DST this weekend & not adjust the timing mentionned to US & Canadian markets.

    CONCACAF site says 10:00PM at the bottom where all fixtures are listed, but if you click the TFC match and click preview, it brings up this https://www.concacafchampionsleague....=match-details
    Where it says "23:00"

    Yeah, I just saw that after I typed my quick response. Somebody needs to seek a response from the team on this.

    My thread title went with what I saw on both sites yesterday morning but the admins will change it once clarification occurs.

    They are on CST, so currently one hour behind us. We turn our clocks ahead on the weekend, putting us 2hrs ahead of them because they don't do DST until April 1st.

    Thus they are going to kick off at 8PM local time, 10PM EST in North America.

    That sounds correct. All CCL games so far have kicked off at 8 AFAIK.

    MLSE just sent out an email saying 10 pm.

    What makes you think they have any intentions of kicking off at 8pm local time? Here is the official verified link from TicketMaster to buy tickets to the game http://www.ticketmaster.com.mx/tigre...005363C5AFB600
    Quite clearly: Tigres v. Toronto

    Why are so many people finding this surprising? Take any run of the mill MLS youngster with a bit of potential, have him train with superior players every week, provide a great coach with a clear system of play and put him in a competitive and winning environment. As long as that player is willing to work they'll get more confident and consistent.

    Well, Ticketmaster may not be the official agent of Tigres like they are for MLSE, so Ticketmaster may be wrong.

    Obviously either MLSE is wrong or Ticketmaster Mexico is wrong.

    Timing will work itself out and we will know well before kickoff.

    *******

    We should not be favourites but we are in with a chance here I think.

    Proud of the boys for the work they put in.

    Don’t think you change Delgado or Oso. But maybe Auro for VDW and Hagglund for Zavs. Otherwise come into the game with the same mentality. If we concede then bring on Ager and Vazquez to chase a draw/penalties in the last half hour.

    I’m not surprised about the players, I’m happy that we have a deep team.

    Speculation is both teams will put out youth squads.

    Hopefully Tijuana can pot a goal in, forcing Tigres to keep the big guns on the whole game

    Vargas and Sosa played a little over an hour. Gignac still on the field (who scored the game's only goal so far - a screamer from outside of the box).

    There are 11min youtube highlights that are pretty good for each league match. Seems like Tigres won their last two league matches but didn't play that great according to the highlights.

    There's also a couple more youtube videos of Gignac vs Giovinco and its remarkable how many similar goals they both scored for their teams.

    Great goal. Gignac is definitely a threat. Hagglund needs to stick to him like glue.
