Canouse struck first for DC United in the 10th minute on a feed from Nigel Robertha, then in the 24th minute, Michael Bradley sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Pozuelo Melero Finally they completed the comback in the 53rd minute on a goal by Osorio to cap off a wild match.

In their last match they recorded a 0-2 loss against Philadelphia Union. Alejandro Bedoya struck first for Philadelphia Union in the 12th minute, then Daniel Gazdag added another in the 33rd minute on a feed from Harriel In the end, New York City couldn’t muster any offence and Philadelphia Union ran away with the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 2 of their last 10.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season these teams were evenly matched with 2 draws apiece.
Valentin Mariano Jose Castellanos Gimenez and Thiago Eduardo de Andrade are the top scorers for New York City in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. For Toronto, their top scorers are Jesús Jiménez and Jonathan Osorio, each having 2 goals in their last five matches.
