While others stumble, Toronto FC continues to find its feet at MLS tournament. MORE:
The MLS champion Seattle Sounders could thank the Vancouver Whitecaps for keeping them out of the Group B basement prior to their meeting Sunday night.
Toronto, in contrast, has already found its feet. And while still a work in progress, it has shown resilience and a deft scoring touch despite missing star striker Jozy Altidore as he works his way back to full fitness. With tournament group games counting in the regular-season standings, there is an added incentive to notch another win Tuesday.
Captain Michael Bradley, coming off ankle surgery, has looked rejuvenated at the heart of the Toronto midfield. "I think guys are naturally trying to find little moments where they can kind of catch their breath and deal with the heat and the humidity and the fatigue factor of our games coming quickly. Guys are resting at the wrong times ... We're getting a little disconnected on the defensive side."
"But we're still working towards that collective 90-minute game that we've haven't hit yet. Not many teams have."
