Greg Vanney was as riled up as we’ve seen him this season.
After bemoaning the way Toronto FC “played into [FC Dallas’] hands”, were “asking for trouble” and repeatedly did things that were “a recipe for a gift for a team that wants to play in transition”, he complained that Dallas’ Roland Lamah should have been sent off after 15 minutes having committed, in his view, two bookable offences.
Vanney could have shrugged his shoulders, noted the absences he had to deal with and pointed out that Dallas are a very good team, even without a few important players of their own.
