The new era under new manager Nico Estevez got off to a shaky start Saturday night as FC Dallas and Toronto FC traded first half goals in route to a 1-1 draw.
FC Dallas broke the deadlock in the 9th minute thanks to Jader Obrian. The new-look attack split up the Toronto defense as Paxton Pomykal found Paul Arriola on the left wing. The US national teamer played a ball across goal that found the run of Obrian for the first goal of the season.
Dallas nearly doubled their lead in the 30th minute as Jesus Ferreira took a weird touch to get by a Toronto defender before finding the back of the net.
