Alex Bono isn’t quite sure why he lost his job as starting goalkeeper for Toronto FC. And it’s clear some three months later that emotions are still raw on the subject.
Difficult, disappointing, discouraging and frustrating are some of the words the 25-year-old Bono uses to sum up the current situation.
Bono, who started the season as No. 1, played six of the first nine games of the 2019 Major League Soccer campaign. Veteran Quentin Westberg, who joined TFC in February after a long career in France, has started the last 15.
“Obviously there’s shock value to it when it comes and it first hits you,” Bono said on Monday of his drop down the pecking order.
