Toronto FC vs. Charlotte FC: 3 takeaways

Toronto FC didn't offer much of a response this weekend after suffering a heartbreaking loss earlier in the week.

Rather than come out strong following a 2-1 home loss to the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday, TFC put in a rather tame and uninspired showing in a 2-0 defeat to Charlotte FC on Saturday.

"I mean, clearly, based on the way we played midweek, we would have expected more tonight. ... There were spurts, but not enough. Not enough," coach Robin Fraser told reporters in the post-game press conference.

Here are my three major takeaways from Saturday's match.
