Toronto FC defeats Red Bulls to seal MLS Supporters' Shield for best record

Toronto FC secured the first MLS Supporters' Shield in club history with a 4-2 victory over the New York Red Bulls on Saturday night.

Victor Vazquez's 80th-minute penalty put Toronto ahead for good before Justin Morrow competed his hat trick as the Reds clinched the league's best regular-season record.

Morrow was on hand to score the opener in the 32nd minute after Luis Robles blocked Tosaint Ricketts' initial effort, then added his second goal five minutes later by tapping home after Michael Bradley's shot deflected through the Red Bulls' defense and into his path.
