It is not a national team game so why would you bring a Canadian flag?

 
To support the Canadian player America might field. Just kidding
 

Just hoping they're still alive at that point. 0-2 or 1-3 or something instead of things getting real ugly. I wish it was just a one game final at a neutral stadium like in Uefa.

I see national flags at club matches all the time.

 

I see Beckham jerseys (because I don't give a fuck about soccer but love celebrities so I should wear this to a soccer match), Bayern Munich jerseys (because I visited Germany once and only have one soccer jersey so I should wear it to the match even if it is the same colours of the opposition team though of course I did not know what their colours were before the match), Paris Saint Germaine jerseys (Montreal is French so we must all be PSG fans) etc. etc. In other words you see all sorts of jerseys/scarves/shirts etc. at games here and even in Europe where also many people are just as ignorant as here about the match even though they have every opportunity to understand the culture of the game.

 

When we are in Mexico we are representing Canada, Quebec, Montreal and the club so no problem with any of the flags at the away game. But in Montreal it should be the colours of the club, ie. Olympic Stadium should be blue, white and black.

  Being  a  TFC  supporter   I  am  wishing  you  guys  the  best  of  Luck   in  this  tie.   It  will  not  be  easy    but  it  is  not  Impossible.  if  MTL   can  at  least  play  America  to  a  draw  or  a  even  if  they  lose down  at  Azteca  maybe  by  a  goal   it  will  be  a great  second  leg..

Well I'm going to wear my Messi jersey so you can see my superior football knowledge and eye for talent.

I do agree that technically national flags have no business in CCL. But Mexicans don't seem to have a problem bringing their flags in our stadiums even though it's club football. Just sayin'

Its probably beacsue theyre not real America fans, just mexicans who find it a great place to show national pride.
