With Sunday’s 1-0 win over the Richmond Kickers at BMO Field, Toronto FC II find themselves in an unfamiliar position.
Through their last three matches, a team that had gone winless through the season, has won two of those games, and the loss in between was by a single goal to one of the top sides in the Eastern Conference.
Jordan Hamilton scored the game’s only goal against Richmond, played in by a wonderful long ball from Liam Fraser in the 48th minute. And where TFC II has struggled to keep a lead in the past, this time, as with the 2-0 win against Nashville SC, there was little concern as the clock ticked down.
