5 things noticed in Toronto FC’s 1-1 draw at New York City FC

After a slow start for the Reds, Toronto FC finished strong en route to a 1-1 draw against New York City FC at Yankee Stadium Wednesday night. Here are five things we noticed shortly after the match tonight.

Forgettable first half

I’m not sure if it was the smaller Yankee Stadium pitch, or perhaps tired legs from the weekend, but the amount of stray passes or bad touches I counted from Toronto FC in the first half were more than I’ve seen from the Reds in the past month. Quite frankly, TFC were lucky to escape into the break tied at one, and that was thanks to Altidore’s physicality and willingness in the box.
