Altidore, Bradley shake off USA boos as Toronto FC wins at Red Bull Arena

The U.S. national team veterans heard the jeers after failing to qualify for the World Cup, but they still helped deliver a postseason win

HARRISON, N.J. — The boos came early and often.

Every single touch, every pass and every dribble. Any time Michael Bradley and Jozy Altidore took possession of the ball Monday night, a half-full Red Bull Arena rained down the boos — louder boos than perhaps have ever been aimed at any player in this stadium. And the fouls? Any time Bradley and Altidore committed a foul the boos hit their peak, filling the stadium and even leading to one particularly pointed chant aimed at the striker.
