Where do you start with a game like that?
To label it a game does not begin to tell the full story; Wednesday night was an event, a landmark moment both for Toronto FC and the wider Canadian soccer landscape.
The Reds are MLS Cup finalists and the talk of the city. The crowd of 35,000 was the highest ever for a Toronto game at BMO Field. The TV ratings, at an average of 1.4 million viewers, were the highest ever for an MLS game in Canada. Kevin Pillar of the Toronto Blue Jays was in attendance and Kyle Lowry donned a TFC hat for his interviews after the Raptors’ game.
