TORONTO - Having lost one cup final this week in a painful penalty shootout, Toronto FC now sees itself facing 12 more.
That’s how many games left Toronto (6-12-4) has left in the MLS regular season. Bob Bradley’s team currently sits in 13th place in the Eastern Conference — six points and six teams out of the playoffs.
There is no room for margin of error if TFC has any hope of making the post-season.
Toronto flew back immediately after Tuesday’s Canadian Championship final loss in Vancouver, arriving home around 7 a.m. Wednesday. On Thursday, the team took what it could in reviewing the 5-3 penalty shootout setback against the Whitecaps and started looking ahead.
