TORONTO, CANADA—Union Omaha nearly won the league last year, while Toronto FC II didn’t get to kick a ball. On Wednesday, in their first-ever matchup, the two sides with the most differing experiences from the past year battled to a hard-fought 1-1 draw.
Coming off a loss against FC Tucson and a weekend draw at North Texas, TFC II were hoping to find their way back into the win column and avoid a three-match winless streak. For part of the evening, it looked like they may just do that, even against an Omaha side with tremendous depth.
