The game stopped and then the rain stooped.
IMFC’s icon and figure, Didier Drogba, made himself present in the 3rd minute of the first half at Saputo Stadium.
This event put everyone under the rain. It is important to note that Nacho Piatti converted himself as the star of the match, with plays going back and forth, attacking and defending, like the old school days in San Lorenzo.
Both teams gave a very good show this evening of May 14th, 2016, in Montreal.
