Well, that wasn’t what I was hoping for out of that game, plain and simple. Orlando City fell to Toronto FC 2-0 at home in a game the Lions certainly should have gotten more out of based on the team’s first-half performance. Instead, a mini streak of home victories is broken ahead of a particularly tough part of the schedule. What follows are my five takeaways from the match.
I felt bad for Brian Rowe after the match. He had seven saves on the day, including a stellar save with an outstretched left hand to deny Chris Mavinga and keep things scoreless.
