Coach John Herdman welcomes the six-week interval between the two legs of Toronto FC's Canadian Championship semifinal against Canadian Premier League champion Forge FC.
Toronto will get captain/midfielder Jonathan Osorio and fullback/wingback Richie Laryea back from international duty next week. The secondary transfer window opens July 18 with Herdman eager to add talent to a thin squad. Forge is missing injured forward Terran Campbell while Mexican fullback Daniel Parra is suspended for yellow card accumulation.Both Toronto and Forge have been struggling of late.
Forge has won just one of its last five outings and sits fifth in the eight-team CPL, holding on to the last playoff spot. It's well below where the four-time league champion normally finds itself. TFC made it to the semifinals by blanking League1 Ontario's Simcoe County Rovers 5-0 in the single-game preliminary round and Ligue1 Quebec's CS Saint-Laurent 11-1 in the two-legged quarterfinal.
Toronto has won the tournament eight times and finished runner-up five times. But it has not lifted the trophy since the 2020 competition.
