Toronto FC vs. Nashville SC: 3 takeaways
Another come-from-behind effort allowed TFC to get the better of the Supporters' Shield leaders at BMO Field.
Toronto FC gave its playoff hopes a major shot in the arm with a dramatic 2-1 win over Supporters' Shield leaders Nashville SC on Wednesday at BMO Field.
Dániel Sallói scored a second-half equalizer before substitute Emilio Aristizábal bagged the winner in injury time for Toronto (6-7-11) who extended its unbeaten streak to seven games. TFC also moved up one spot to 10th in the Eastern Conference, level on points with New York City FC who hold down the ninth and final playoff berth with 10 games remaining in the regular season.
"Given where we are – where we are in the league, and how many games are left – all these games, everything feels like a playoff game right now to be quite honest," coach Robin Fraser said.
Here are my three major takeaways from Wednesday's match.
