In victory, Toronto FC showed the first signs of defeat. Or, more specifically, Sebastian Giovinco did.
Through their run of one win in six games to start the season, Greg Vanney and most of his players have remained pretty level-headed. They insisted that they felt good about their performances despite the results and maintained that, in MLS, it was more important to peak in October than to make a hot start.
But if you thought Giovinco was cool, calm and collected and keeping faith in the process, it was pretty clear on Friday night against the Chicago Fire that you were mistaken.
