There was an extra special energy in the air today at BMO Field ahead of an always exciting clash with the Montreal Impact. In front of their arch-rivals, Toronto FC were presented with the most significant piece of silverware they have won to date: the 2017 Supporters’ Shield.
Toronto FC had initially clinched the shield with a 4-2 win over the New York Red Bulls back on September 30. However, the trophy itself was not at BMO Field on that date and therefore the celebrations felt a little incomplete.
The club certainly got their moment in the sun today, however, soaking in being named the league’s best regular season team this season.
