Just. Win.
The goal is clear for Toronto FC on Wednesday night when they host the Montreal Impact. Win (and don’t let the Impact score more than once), and the MLS Cup will be played at BMO Field. Any other result, and they’re out.
TFC salvaged the first leg of the Eastern Conference final last Tuesday by scoring two critical away goals at the Olympic Stadium. A 3-2 result after going down 3-0 felt almost like a victory to the players and travelling fans. The team had no business being in this fixture, but now they have a glorious second chance.
