The Toronto-Montreal rivalry is the most natural one in MLS

As an American, this is definitely the best MLS rivalry. No question. It’s centuries of history and culture that no other rivalry has. 2016 was really the pinnacle of it all.

Extremely underrated rivalry. People often forget it in the conversation of the best rivalries in the league.

The only rivalry in the league that's fuel with true cultural differences and hate. And the best. (Don't tell Portland and Seattle)

One of the best rival in the league and i just love the hell out of it🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥

This is why I’m disappointed MLS has gone to single elimination for the playoffs. That 2016 series, was one of the most exhilarating playoff series I had ever seen.

1: Montreal vs Toronto 2: Earthquakes vs Galaxy 3: Seattle vs Portland 4: NYCFC vs Red Bulls 5: Rapids vs RSL Best rivalries in the MLS Honorable Mention: NERevs and an MLS Cup

People who don't call this the best rivalry in the league just don't know what it's like to live it Allez Impact

This is literally the Canadian el Classico (barca vs Madrid)

When there's one national anthem I think that's when things get intense Michael Bradley - 2019

The "401 Derby" or "Canadian Classique" - whatever you call it, its magic. And its made better by the fact that it unfolds both in League play and through the Canadian Championship. There was even a " proxy battle" going on last night in the York 9- Montreal game. For me these games are always a highlight of the season, both home and away.

Best rival in the MLS

This is by far the best derby/rivalry in the MLS. It’s fueled on the injustice the anglophone majority of Canada brought upon Québec for centuries, and that injustice still exists to an extent today from some anglophones, mainly west of Québec. This rivalry is by far the most meaningful, well rewarded derby in the MLS by far. The rest are just pettiness between either two new and old clubs from the same area, or two clubs relatively close to each other that only occurs because why not hate a team near you for no reason based on no prior incidents

This rivalry, the Hudson Derby and the El Trafico are always so fun to watch

Candadian Bloods Vs Crips Toronto Vs Montreal American Bloods vs crips NY Redbulls vs NYCFC 😂😂

LOVE THIS. Hope we get to see docs like this on Cali Clasico, Atlantic Cup, Hudson River Derby, Cascadia, and the budding El Trafico. So cool that our still-pretty-young league has such intense rivalries

Excellent video MLS.

Best Canadian rivals in the mls!!

*LOVE AND SUPPORT TO TORONTO FC FROM COLOMBIA!* 🇨🇴 🇨🇦 🔴⚪🔴🔥🔥🔥

Best rivalry in the MLS

1:51 "The New York of the US" Wouldn't that be New York?

I'm from Ottawa and we're in the middle, but we're Toronto all the way even though the NHL and CFL rivalry are tense between the two of us. But when it comes to soccer, we Ontario repping.

That makes me miss Drogba.

Montreal vs Toronto games will always be intense and physical. You'll never have a dull game.

it's quite interesting that the colours are the opposite in hockey and in football/soccer

Love this rivalry!

They totally forgot to highlight the 2008 CanChamp that Montreal won.

Extremely well made video. Kudos to the MLS Media Team.

Come on Montréal!

They put the 6-1 win by TFC in the VCup, but what about the IMFC's 6-0 win in 2013?

Good video! Be a great rivalry for years to come!

This was great! A+ work by the creator

I love the rivalry it's amazing and it's growing.

Admit it.. MLS has a great editing team!! Love the videos especially these short ones on rivalries!! 🔥🔥👌👌

Shoulda got Ciman to talk about the rivalry

I love these kind of videos. Keep it going!💪

It’s not important...it’s Montreal vs Toronto Nobody cares...it’s Montreal vs Toronto It’s irrelevant...it’s MONTREAL VS TORONTO Excited for the game

Fantastic Video please do more

I’m so happy they mentioned how the rivalry transferred over from hockey to football.

I’m a northern NY’er who lives near both the Ontario and Québec borders but my love goes way back with the Montréal Expos. I’m always going to support Montréal teams. I love visiting Montréal and believe it’s the greatest city in the world. I just wish I knew French well enough so I could work and live there. I think the language laws are too uptight for businesses and work, otherwise I could see Montréal being the financial capital of Canada.

Really glad the MLS has brought real stars over the years: drogba, giovinco Huge for MLS. Made me start watching mls rather than european leagues.

I am a Seattle fan and I went to a game against Portland. It was complete madness, there were fights in the street after the game (which I don't think belongs in football). I will always remember just the march to the match and the police closed down the streets and we all had our scarves up and were chanting like crazy people. I need to go back to Seattle because damn I love this sport. Seattle won btw, goddamn I hate Portland. I remember I was at work when they were playing Atlanta FC for the title and cheering when Atlanta won and people were asking me 'Are you from Atlanta?' "No I just hate Portland." Mad respect though for giving me one of my favorite football experiences in Seattle in the pouring down rain. Rivalry days are the worst and best thing ever.

Hahaha “it’s just passion against eachother” 🤣

Bank of Montreal, proud sponsors of Toronto FC. XDD

SAY IT WITH ME TORONTO! *TIC TAC TABERNAC,* *WHO THE FUCK’S THE IMPACT?*

We are rivalry not enemy... Sport is all about love and respect I believe..

Allez Montréal :) De france ;)

2:10 aw Rachel nice to see you on this channel again.

Its argueably the best rivalry in mls. Both made it to the CCL final, imagine if they both won it? Then this rivalry would be even more intense !!

One of the real true blood North American rivalries along with the original I-95 Derby DCU v. NYMS/RB and Seattle v. Portland! Neighbor against neighbor.

Toronto vs Montreal fighting for the best team of Canada, everyone conveniently forgot about Vancouver lol

Only difference is one team has a record Canadian championship titles and a domestic treble after losing at home

Best rivalry in the league. Portland Seattle close second.

🇨🇦 > 🇺🇸?

My favorite is Canadian Derby and El tráfico.

Wish we could also have an NBA rivalry.

There’s also LA Galaxy vs LAFC, ATL vs NYRB, and Portland vs Seattle. They’re all entraining to watch imo.

Ok I’m hyped now

Nice video!

Pls do one on Portland and Seattle

proud to say toronto fc is the best team in canadian history

6:00 i still have goosebumps whenever I see this game

What is the song name that’s in the background at 0:40

5:06 Lex Luther of the MLS 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Member when Innebriati jumped that defenseless Montreal kid?

Team Montreal is here

If only the rest of the mls could have good derby’s like this. Only other is portland v Seattle v Vancouver all in the same region yet different lifestyles etc it would be great

6:05 - poor defending by the Toronto team. Letting a player like Drogba all alone in the box like that. Of course Toronnoes deserved to lose. Long live Drogba, such a great talent!

Every Time im going to live that rivalry live i watch this vidéo and cut it at 7:56 the rest is too hard to watch specialy the enormous amount of extra time that was given by the ref to allow Toronto to tie on aggregate Always been the french vs America Wont change anytime soon see the Stanley cup finals how Bettman rigged and bought the refs for market and marketing reasons

Hahaha wow Toronto sure is living rent free in Montreal's heads eh :) Must be all of the hard L's you've taken over the years!!! What a great rivalry, and the best game I've attended in my life in any sport was Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact in November 2016, the 5-2 TFC win!

Montreal is the Champions of Canada 2019!! Love my city!!

I will be at the game

Red Vs Blue BMO Vs BMO?

Great rivalry but being from Houston I’m bias towards the Texas Derby. Houston Dynamo vs FC Frisco um I mean Dallas. 😄

As a Canadian it's definitely a different feeling when it's only our anthem. There is history in this rivalry, lots of bad blood and literal blood across centuries. That being said at the end of the day we are brought together as Canadians since nothing can unite the anglophones and francophones like showing the Americans.

9 tabernacs disliked this video..... TFC!!!!

Good to see Rachel Bonnetta again.

United by nation, Separated by blood

MLS, do a Doc on the Hudson River Derby plz?

can't you bring Rachel Bennetta back or least let her visit the new this week on MLS set please

2016 eastern finals in Montréal was way more Electric with 60 000 people at the olympic stadium

On the soccer pitch English Canada doesn’t have to coddle Quebec or worry about “offending” them.

Montreal arrivate the North America in 1642 Toronto i just arrivate 1739 Montreal the best city vs Toronto

8:15 and 10:34 are just insane

So how is laurent ciman seen in Montreal ?

It’s clear that being out of the US gives it that energy. I’m the US they care more of that handball nfl and baseball, which is why mls will never carry that weight like other leagues.

Well Toronto is more English/American Canada where Montreal is French

I guess when you've never won the MLS Cup, you have to hold on EXTRA TIGHT to those Canadian Championship wins LMFAO

Vive le Québec et Montréal

Small team" while they have Piatti and Drogba lol

Montreal has nothing to be compared with Toronto. TORONTO means a lot than a city

TFC Supporters: "WE'RE NOT YOUR GUYS BUDDIES!!!" Impact Supporters: "WE'RE NOT YOUR BUDDIES FRIENDS!!!" TFC Supporters: "WE'RE NOT YOUR FRIENDS GUYS!!!" Impact Suppoters: "WE'RE NOT YOUR GUYS BUDDIES!!!" TFC Supporters: "WE'RE NOT YOUR BUDDIES FRIENDS!!!" Impact Supporters: "WE'RE NOT YOUR FRIENDS GUYS!!!"

It's the toronto raptors that won the championships

Half of these so proud Toronto or Montréal whatever have Italian family names 🤣

Portland vs Seattle best rivalry

That last clip with Drogba was clean. who else agrees

Come on you Redsssssssssss

0:46 dude got knocked out, I remember watching it live

Battle for Canada

Allez Montreal
