Toronto, ON – Tsubasa Endo, Alex Pozueko and Jonathan Osorio were responsable for the 3 home points this afternoon at BMO Field.
Finally the team of Greg Vanney is getting the solution to qualify in the playoffs this season.
With 45 points, TFC is just behind the current MLS Champion, Atlanta United, the Vanney Boys are ready and with a full roaster to face the playoffs.
Keegan Rosenberry and Sam Nicholson made the goals for Colorado Rapids, who with 36 points look like they won’t be able to reach the classification zone with the matches they have left.
With this result, the hope and courage is back in the home of the Reds after a hard season full of obstacles for the Canadian team.
From the MLS franchise in this country, Toronto keep being the most “goleador” and strong of the three (Montreal Impact & Vancouver Whitecaps)
