Toronto FC put in deep freeze by Panamanians in Champions League series Globe_Sports
A report from The Canadian Press said Altidore and TFC agreed to a new long-term contract on Tuesday, which means the team will at least have some scoring power this season. But a Champions League loss to an unheralded opponent does not bode well for the Major League Soccer season.
“We have to play a little bit of the long game,” Vanney said. “We can’t come out racing headless at the beginning of the game, trying to seek four goals. We have to play smart.” But at -9 C, the cold temperatures were bound to give even the North American players on TFC pause. Something else that slowed the Reds attack was the BMO pitch. The field looked like you would expect grass in sub-zero February to look, threadbare with the dirt showing through all over the place.
