Poor refereeing has long been a criticism of Major League Soccer, and this weekend it may have cost Toronto FC a deserved away point.
Every time the match notes arrive in the email inbox the day before a match, the first scan is never for the proposed starting elevens. The referee assignment is always the first item examined. So, when the match notes for last night's game at Children's Mercy Park arrived on Saturday with the name Baldomero Toledo listed as the referee in charge for Toronto FC's lone visit this season to Kansas an eyebrow raised and the first thought was that this could get interesting.
