Toronto FC II hit the road this week for an Independence Day clash with the Tampa Bay Rowdies in Florida on Wednesday night.
On the back of that impressive come-from-behind 3-3 draw against FC Cincinnati at Lamport Stadium last Wednesday, TFC II were hoping that their return to BMO Field, in the back-end of a Canada Day double-header with the first team, would see them build on that result.
It was not to be. Having gone toe-to-toe with a stingy Charleston Battery side for nearly an hour, TFC II came undone in the end, conceding twice in a six-minute spell and twice more in the final eight minutes of a 4-0 loss.
