Toronto FC looks to build off three\u002Dweek break as CF Montreal comes to town
“We as a club know we owe the fans a performance,” said Dunfield. “And I don’t think there could be a better game than Montreal at home.”Firing Bob Bradley as coach and sporting director on June 26 did not arrest TFC’s nosedive. Toronto lost six straight in July in all competitions while being outscored 13-0.
Both Montreal and Toronto are coming off lengthy layoffs after failing to get out of the group stage of the Leagues Cup. Montreal has been off since July 26 while Toronto last played July 30.Article content“On the physical side, last week we hit some new personal bests, which is great,” he said. “On the tactical side, we’ve continued to grow nicely. And then I think on the culture side, we’re working hard to become more of a united team. And hopefully you’ll see that on Sunday.
On the plus side, Montreal has won three straight over Toronto and is 5-1-0 in the last six league meetings. Toronto has lost twice already to Montreal this season, beaten 2-1 on May 9 at BMO Field in Canadian Championship play and 2-0 on May 13 in league play at Stade Saputo. “One thing that’s nice about the squad now is there’s competition for places,” said Dunfield. “Tomas was pushing Sean on the training pitch. I thought he was excellent against St. Louis . So I think he’s ready for this opportunity.”Article content
