puskas Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 How many u-20 World Cup games will be played in each city? Why are they selling the tickets on July 15 when qualifying is not yet over and the schedule is not clear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the qualifying doesn't end in some regions until early next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puskas Posted July 10, 2006 Author Share Posted July 10, 2006 Granted but has there been an announcement on how many games each city gets besides knowing that the final is in Tor and semis are in Edm and Tor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Montreal gets 8 games - 6 groups, a round of 16 and a quarter. Expect Ottawa and Victoria to be dropped for the quarters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurosawa1555362267 Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 But we still don't know if the Montreal games will be played at Claude Robillard or at Molson Stadium at Mcgill Unniversity... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they can put some grass in Molson Stadium for the time during the cup. That is would be a great stadium to watch the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not the case of Molson Stadium. Playing there would add nothing for the soccer community in Montreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is there going to be a CCR revival (couldn't resist that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is would be a great stadium to watch the games. 400,000 dollars worth of new Fieldturf™ will do the trick. or maybe that gets spent for upgrading the Big O. With the Saputo Park move east, could be. And once the U-20 is over- move the turf 2000 yards and there is your surface for the Impact. And before the detractors come out- it is home to the largest gate in Canadian soccer history- 72,000 and it may be a lousy baseball stadium, but as a former Manic fan, a great place to soccer game. The sightlines are great and when even half full-- a very loud venue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
