D.C. United is looking to combine results and performance as they take on Toronto FC today at BMO Field. United won its first two games of the season without playing particularly well, while possession that drew praise from head coach Hernán Losada resulted in a shutout loss at home last week against Chicago. They’ll face a TFC side that has just one point from their opening three games, but amid a significant rebuild, the Reds have shown flashes of some serious promise.
Key player: Julian Gressel
TFC are down their preferred left back Jacob Shaffelburg due to injury, and just traded Kemar Lawrence to Minnesota.
