Well, I asked for bold predictions for Wednesday, and you guys delivered. It turned out pretty heartbreaking in the end, but there’s a lot for Toronto FC to be proud of from their CONCACAF Champions League run. Their 2-1 win over Chivas also gave a lot of you a really nice sum of points — since it was a double point game, all of you who picked a 3-1 TFC win got six, and a couple people who predicted a 2-1 victory for the Reds got eight.
Nobody picked TFC to lose on penalties, but that’s understandable — it was a brutal ending that nobody really wanted to imagine. If somebody had, I might’ve given them a consolation bonus point.
Anyway, the Reds are looking to get back on the horse in MLS today as they host the Chicago Fire at BMO Field. Last time the Fire visited, TFC won 3-1, and that was in one of Bastian Schweinsteiger’s first games for Chicago. The Reds won by the same scoreline later in the year when they visited the Windy City.
What do you think? Will TFC be exhausted from all the travel and emotion, and thus come out flat? Or will they be motivated by their loss, looking to return to MLS with a vengeance?
Here are the current standings.
