Montreal Impact 'will be ready' for Alajuelense return - Tissot

Maxime Tissot insists Montreal Impact will be fully prepared for their trip to Alajuelense.

The Canadian side will meet the Costa Rican outfit in Alajuela in the CONCACAF Champions League semi-final second leg on April 7 following their 2-0 win at home on Wednesday.

Early goals from Ignacio Piatti and Victor Cabrera have given the Impact a comfortable lead going into the second leg and midfielder Tissot suggests the Impact are planning to be just as prepared as they were for the 2-2 quarter-final draw against Pachuca.

"No, no [we're not scared]," said Tissot.

"We did it in Mexico, and we can do it in Costa Rica. We're ready, and it'll be a similar challenge.

"We know what to expect. We'll be ready."
