July 9.
That was the last time the Seattle Sounders had lost at CenturyLink Field, in a 1-0 reverse against the LA Galaxy, until today.
It’s hard to overstate just how remarkable an effort that was from Toronto FC, who left four key men at home, had another out injured and gave three players their first starts of the season in Washington but came away with a 1-0 victory.
Toronto were on less than 72 hours of rest and had flown across the continent for this match but picked up a fourth consecutive win courtesy of Jozy Altidore’s first-half penalty after he had been fouled in the area by Roman Torres.
