TORONTO – Beating up one of the worst clubs in MLS with the man advantage is one thing. Earning a result against the fourth-best team in the Eastern Conference at even strength is quite another.
It’s a lesson that Toronto FC learned the hard way as it crashed down to earn on Saturday in a hard-fought 2-1 home loss to Nashville SC at BMO Field before an announced crowd of 19,504.
TFC (3-8-4) were coming off a historic 6-1 road win over CF Montreal last weekend. They found the going much tougher against Nashville (8-4-3) who are now unbeaten in six MLS games (with four wins). Captain Jonathan Osorio came off the bench in the second half to score his 50th career regular season goal for the Reds. He missed the previous four contests with a dislocated shoulder.
This was Toronto’s 600th regular season match in club history, but there were no celebrations on this special night for Robin Fraser’s side. The Reds have an all-time regular season record of 180 wins, 265 losses and 155 draws. Their all-time home record in regular season play is 123-97-79.
