Philadelphia Union snapped a five\u002Dgame league winless run in dispatching Toronto FC 4\u002D2 in MLS play Saturday.
Insigne and fellow Italian Federico Bernardeschi both started for Toronto for the first time since the season opener. Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty slotted into TFC’s starting lineup with Jordan Perruzza and Alonso Coello dropping to the bench.
There was more suspect defending in the 20th minute after Toronto failed to clear a Philadelphia cross. Johnson kept the ball in play but couldn’t get through Carranza to gather it. The ball came back in front of goal and Uhre’s shot deflected in off the unfortunate MacNaughton. TFC was without injured captain/midfielder Michael Bradley, fullback Cristian Gutierrez, centre back Matt Hedges, midfielder Victor Vazquez and forward Adama Diomande.We apologize, but this video has failed to load.Philadelphia threatened early with Carranza off-target with a header and shot in the eighth and ninth minute.Article content
Toronto coach Bob Bradley withdrew MacNaughton and Bernardeschi, who had been listed as questionable before the game with a lower body injury, at halftime. Shane O’Neill and Perruzza came on.
