Toronto, ON – What a night for TFC at home, 3-0 over Philadelphia Union at BMO Field.
After some weeks of absence, The “International” Victor Vazquez, is back and well with a score at 28′ , one more time, Barcelona FC style, with a great assist by Nick Hasler.
The Phillies went to the front shooting on the Alex Bono door several times, but the Cerberus was there to be the hero one more time at home.
Somebody was very focused on the match, which was “Il Capo” Sebastian Giovinco, who scores a golazo at minute 65′.
The coach, Jim Curtin, wasn’t licking the numbers, then he sent the full team on the front, closing in on TFC to penetrate the rival area.
Unfortunately the efforts of the Phillies, wasn’t what all their guests hoped or deserved for a team, who is on the 8th position on the table.
On the minute 89, the young Canadian, Jay Chapman opens his goal account in the MLS competition and killing the hopes of the United States team for minimum a point on ontarien soil.
