Paying Anything To Roll The Dice

Paying Anything To Roll The Dice

I’ll admit, I thought Toronto was going to get slaughtered on Tuesday night.

With all the goings-on that have surrounded this club over the past couple of weeks, it seemed inevitable that TFC would get crushed by Cruz Azul in Mexico. Doubly so when considering the fact that The Reds handed the Mexico City giants an embarrassing 2-1 loss at BMO Field last month in the opening game of the CONCACAF Champions League group stage.

What a difference a month makes.

Before May, many TFC fans needed to be talked off the ledge, as the Reds struggled out of the gate under the new Preki regime. As the month comes to a close, some are now preparing the parade route.

Of course, the reality is that while Toronto is a good, hardworking club that has found its stride over the past four weeks, it’s still far too early to know which version of the team is the real one. That said, it’s hard not to be optimistic.

A complete shambles.

Those three words can be used to describe a couple of things about TFC’s latest visit to the barren, inhospitable land known as Gillette Stadium. The second half, for example, was most definitely a complete shambles. As was allowing the fastest hat-trick in MLS history (13 minutes) to be scored by a player who had previously notched a grand total of zero goals.

That Nick Garcia’s night was not a complete shambles may surprise even the staunchest of his defenders (assuming they existed, of course. Which they don’t, not any more.)
