Injured Toronto FC striker Jozy Altidore needs ‘a little bit of a miracle’ in order to be ready for MLS Cup date with Seattle

Toronto FC striker Jozy Altidore thinks he will need “a little bit of a miracle” if he is to play in Sunday’s MLS Cup final against the Seattle Sounders.

The forward said Monday he was feeling “better and better” after suffering a quadriceps strain in a win over Columbus Crew on Oct. 6, the final game of the regular season. But he downplayed the likelihood he would play a part in Toronto’s third final in four years.

“That’s where I am and I’ve just got to try to keep trying to get myself there,” Altidore said.
