TORONTO, Canada—“It was 4-1” is a phrase that will haunt Toronto Maple Leafs fans for decades, recalling the team’s 5-4 OT loss to the Boston Bruins in 2013. While 1-0 is no three-goal lead, the feeling is similar for TFC II, who saw three points ripped away in the dying moments of Saturday’s match against North Texas.
Coming off a mid-week loss to FC Tucson, Toronto FC II was looking to re-enter the win column against North Texas in Arlington, TX. The Young Reds came close within two minutes but ended up leaving the former home of the MLB’s Texas Rangers with only a point.
