Recap: Quintero’s three fireworks are enough for Loons to top Toronto

Manager Adrian Heath rolled out a 3-5-2 formation again in the hopes that it would function better than his usual standby, a 4-2-3-1. Francisco Calvo and Miguel Ibarra returned to the lineup from the World Cup and red-card suspension respectively. Calvo, the captain, joined Michael Boxall and Brent Kallman on the back line. Ibarra started at right wingback, replacing Tyrone Mears and Alexi Gómez served as his counterpart on the left. Ibson, Rasmus Schuller, and Collen Warner filled up the central midfield, while the tandem Christian Ramirez and Darwin Quintero started up front.
