Toronto FC’s coach switches up formations, move pays off in 3-0 victory over Chicago fire

Second-half goals by Jozy Altidore, Jonathan Osorio and Sebastian Giovinco gave Toronto FC a much-needed 3-0 win Saturday over the Chicago Fire.

After a poor first half, Toronto hit high gear and began to play with some of the swagger that marked its 2017 championship season — much to the delight of the sellout crowd of 29,190 at BMO Field.
