It’s not often that Toronto FC go 210 minutes without a goal.
But after playing out 0-0 draw in a season opener similar, in many ways, to December’s MLS Cup final - only without an ending of crushing disappointment - the Reds remain off the scoresheet since the Eastern Conference final.
Play like they did here against Real Salt Lake and on December 10, however, and more often than not Toronto will win. We have seen enough from Sebastian Giovinco and Jozy Altidore to know that this team does not have a problem in terms of taking its chances in front of goal, and the likelihood is this ‘drought’ will end when Toronto take on the Philadelphia Union next weekend.
