After losing 3-0 midweek at league-leading FC Cincinnati, Toronto FC will find itself in equally hostile territory Saturday when it visits New England.
Cincinnati entered the MLS record books with Wednesday's victory, tying the 2002 San Jose Earthquakes in winning the first 10 home games of the season. Now Toronto faces a New England Revolution side that has yet to lose at Gillette Stadium in nine games this season .
New England has won two straight, is unbeaten in five games and did not play midweek. It has scored three goals in each of its last three home wins. “They're a good team and they are especially difficult to play against in their stadium,” said Toronto coach Bob Bradley. “The turf, they adapt well. Some good players. They go forward in good ways. Some dangerous attackers. So for us, a big test against a good team.”
And yet Toronto, despite sitting 14th in the 15-team Eastern Conference, is just four points out of a playoff berth. Midfielders Michael Bradley and Victor Vazquez and forwards Adama Diomande and Hugo Mbongue are out injured. Petretta and Franklin both left the midweek game early with Petretta suffering from a stomach ailment and Franklin aggravating a shoulder issue after falling awkwardly. Coello, a 23-year-old Spaniard who has impressed in his rookie season, has been out since suffering an injury in a May 9 Canadian Championship loss to CF Montreal.
