There will always be trials & tribulations, what matters is how Toronto FC reacts to the recent disappointments
For a third straight week, a controversial refereeing decision proved costly for Toronto FC as they fell 1-0 in Colorado, a match many would have circled on the calendar as a winnable one.
First there was the David Villa handball that allowed him to put NYC FC ahead by two – not to mention Tommy McNamara's penalty 'win' moments earlier (it was definitely a pen, but he did sell it with relish); then there was the non-call on Brad Davis, bundling over Justin Morrow on the edge of the box to steal possession and swoop in for the decisive goal; finally, a pair of calls went against TFC in Colorado: first, the two yellow cards in quick succession to Benoit Cheyrou and finally a blown off-side call that allowed Luis Solignac to break in behind the back-line and score what proved to be the game-winner.
