Toronto, ON – The Quakes of Matias Almeyda turn the score winning 2-1 over a weaker TFC who exhibited its deficiencies.
One more time, the situation everytime a little more difficult for Greg Vanney, especially when everything painted for another easy match facing a team with only 15 points.
In the middle of a constant fire for the ball, Richie Larye scores his first goal wearing the t-shirt of the Ontario team at minute 28’.
From this moment on, something happened with the Canadian group, the ball possession changed and allowing Chris Wondolowski to score twice at 37′ and 81′ burying any aspiration of the Vanney Boys to get at the very least one point.
This time the goalkeeper showed more security and even the hard work of the defensive line, luck was simply not on the side of the local team.
