Three players make the starting 11 and 1 more on the bench. IMFC is well represented on Week 3 Team of the Week.

MLS: Toronto FC at Montreal Impact Eric Bolte-USA TODAY Sports

The Impact put on an impressive tactical performance of Saturday against bitter rivals Toronto FC. Many players had important roles to play in the victory but a few stood out above the rest. Three players made the starting 11 of the team of the week: Nacho Piatti, Saphir Taider and Rod Fanni. These three players were dominant from the beginning of the match to the end. Honorable mention must go out to Evan Bush who made the bench; he was aware and made many instrumental plays that lead the Impact to a shutout win.
