TORONTO — Sergio Santos scored in the 93rd minute Saturday as FC Cincinnati defeated Toronto FC 4-3 in a wild affair to extend its winning streak to a club-record seven games.
Argentina playmaker Lucho Acosta helped create the goal, driving into the Toronto penalty box and chipping it in front of goal for Santos to knock home. It was a gut-wrenching loss for Toronto, which kept clawing its way back in an entertaining back-and-forth Major League Soccer affair.
Luca Orellano's second goal of the game in the 79th minute had seemed to have secured three points for high-flying Cincinnati at 3-2. It came from a well-worked attack that saw Orellano take a pass from Santos and find the corner of the goal. Herdman was able to start close to his best lineup with Osorio returning from a three-game injury absence.
BMO Field has been a happy hunting ground for Cincinnati. Its most recent visit, last September, was a 3-2 win that clinched the Supporters’ Shield.
