Prediction: 1-3
DC United
Toronto and DC United go head to head at BMO Field in the last game of the regular season. The Reds are not enjoying a season to remember, and, as a result, they failed to book their place in the playoffs. Since Toronto have nothing to play for in Sunday’s clash, home win should not be considered. To make things even worse for the hosts, key player Soteldo misses the last game of the regulation season.
DC United, on the other hand, need a big over Toronto if they are to keep their playoffs hopes alive. Considering that the capital club want this win more than the Reds, we are tempted to put our money on the away side. Peru international Edison Flores remains in the recovery room, but he should be the only absentee in the away team.
Highlighted Player (Laurent Ciman):
Laurent Ciman is a Belgium international who plays for Montreal Impact in Major League Soccer. The defender who was born in Farciennes on August 5, 1985 played for Charleroi from 2004 to 2008 and he made no less than 85 league appearances for the Belgian outfit.
During the 2007/2008 season he was on Club Brugge’s radar and in the summer of 2008 he joined the Blauw-Zwart. After ending his loan spell with Kortijk Laurent Ciman joined fellow Belgian club Standard Liege and he spent five seasons at Stade Maurice Dufrasne. On January 22, 2015 the defender signed a three-year contract with MLS club Montreal Impact and he has been playing for the Canadian outfit ever since.
Ciman represented Belgium at the 2008 Olympics and he did remarkably well to make Belgium 2014 FIFA World Cup squad. However, he was unused at the showpiece tournament in Brazil. The Montreal Impact footballer scored his first ever goal for Belgium in June, 2016 in a 3-2 victory over Norway.
