Defending champs tough test for short-handed TFC

After surviving steamy Orlando, Toronto FC faces another challenge in defending MLS champion Atlanta United on Wednesday.

Once again, Toronto (5-2-1) will have to play without veteran defender Drew Moor (calf) and star striker Jozy Altidore (hamstring), both of whom remain at home working their way back from injury.

After surviving the heat of Orlando, midfielder Alejandro Pozuelo and his Toronto FC temamates face a new challenge in Atlanta United on the road.
