Tough game to lose. Dominated the whole game but lost it on the two lapses that led to an NYC goal. Loved the intensity from TFC players, unfortunately it didn't lead to a goal.

 

[SenorDingDong]

They crushed Montreal last night 3-1. Amazing game to be at.

Great game yesterday to watch as a casual fan.

 

[Pilky01]

Yeah that was a great game last night.

 

[topched]

I'll venture to say Giovinco is the most watchable, exciting athlete in this city right now. He's get out of your seat awesome when he's on the ball (hon mention to Josh Donaldson)

If TFC can keep this up I can see a ton of casual fans being converted for a playoff run,how can you not the man is dominant

Agreed. Giovinco or Donaldson for sure.

Donaldson a top 5 position player in MLB

Giovinco IS the best player in MLS imo.

Soccer is gaining momentum... Even the national team is on a high

We call it soccer and not football for a reason, because it matters way less to us than those who live in Europe. I don't think even winning the cup will bring a whole lot of fan to soccer team. Not sold on that at all.

So 'football' matters but 'soccer' doesnt?

Ignoring stupid opinions....Giovinco was damn impressive last night. I had gotten so used to seeing TFC play like a childrens team, I was blown away last night watching Toronto actually string passes together, connect on long crosses, and of course Giovinco handling the ball like it were on a string.

That stadium will be full come September/October if TFC can avoid their annual mid-summer nosedive.

 

[Clark4Ever]

I don't think I've ever seen TFC dominate possession and create chances at will like they did last night. This team has potential.

 

[Quarter]

Giovinco is magic.

No, it's because we have our own football (gridiron) that's more ingrained in our culture than soccer is. Same goes for the United States and Australia.

 

[kfernandes29]

It really is amazing to see this team playing like an actual team. The quality is way above anything we've seen from any TFC team. Very excited to see what these guys can do.

Giovinco is way too good for this league btw. Best player in the league right now, hands down.

The weather has hurt attendence for this game. Attendance is 16382, which is a lot more than it seems like.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Sucks it ended in a tie but oh well. Couldn't finish but the wet conditions certainly didn't help.

 

[Pilky01]

It feels like TFC has the worst luck for weather; and not even just bad lake shore weather, just bad weather in general.

Being right by the lake makes it a lot worse as well. The roof is coming next year at least.

Yeah, but its not just lake effect weather...the high winds and cold temperatures are fine, but the amount of games they have played in torrential downpours (obviously not localized, lakefront weather) just seems so disproportionate.

 

[Quarter]

West coast games, man.

 

[Auston Matthews]

Zavaleta is awful

 

[Auston Matthews]

If i were the coach I would start Hagglund at CB instead of Zavaleta, he has been so shaky. Almost scored an OG right now, and gave it away against New York City FC that resulted in a goal as well...

Hagglund starting. When do Bradley and Altidore come back? It'll be a tough game against NYCFC, Giovinco will have to play amazing.
