Toronto FC extends unbeaten streak to five games, tie Nashville MORE:
Toronto is now 2-0-3 under the Spaniard, who took over July 4 after Chris Armas was fired in the wake of a six-game losing streak. TFC has drawn all three of its games at BMO Field — all by a 1-1 score — since returning home last month.
Toronto was without Spanish playmaker Alejandro Pozuelo, who was held out of the game as a precautionary measure after feeling"some discomfort" in his leg. A club spokeswoman said it was not thought to be serious. Toronto went ahead in the 20th minute on a Gonzalez header off a Yeferson Soteldo free kick after Michael Bradley was taken down by Brian Anunga. Soteldo took the free kick seconds after Bradley placed the ball on the ground, catching the Nashville defence off guard and finding the six-foot-five Gonzalez for his first goal since Sept. 29, 2019.Castellanos evened the score in the 41st minute off a long Dave Romney throw-in.
The visitors came on the final minutes of the half with Canadian fullback Alistair Johnston's diving header forcing a good save from Bono after Castellanos' goal. Johnston, part of Canada's team at the Gold Cup, had a fine game down the right flank. Coming into play Sunday, Nashville ranked second in the league in goals conceded and was tied for sixth in goals scored . Goalkeeper Joe Willis had a league-leading seven shutouts.Nashville had 24 goals in 15 matches this season, matching its total from the 23-game regular season last year.
