With the Major League Soccer playoffs out of sight and the season near its close, Toronto FC is looking to finish on the right foot when they host post-season hopeful Inter Miami CF on Friday.
Toronto is eliminated from post-season contention for the second year in a row while Miami sits in the seventh and final playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.
It’s been a difficult stretch for the Reds of late. The team has not won a game since they defeated Charlotte on Aug. 27 and have been plagued by goalkeeping and defending issues.The Reds had a run of success after the arrival of Italian players Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi in late July. The two international stars quickly made their mark, leading Toronto on a five-game unbeaten streak that was halted by a 2-1 loss at the hands of Miami on Aug. 20.
“I’d say came at kind of a perfect time,” Nelson said after Wednesday’s practice. “Obviously we’ve been disappointed with the results we’ve been getting, and we had big … expectations the second half of the season, and I don’t think we’ve followed through with that.”Miami, meanwhile, will enter BMO Field on a two-game winning streak.
