Nail meet Coffin. Toronto FC put New York City FC seven goals under tonight on aggregate, advancing to their first ever Conference final where they will meet their rivals: the Montreal Impact.
Toronto FC came into this match needing only not to lose in order to book a ticket to the third round of the playoffs. They could have parked the bus, frustrated NYCFC, and left Yankee Stadium with a 0-0 draw that would have done the job.
But this Toronto FC team has proven that they aren’t about half measures. Instead, the result was never in doubt as they lay a heavy beating on the host side en route to a dominating 5-0 victory.
