Toronto FC beat the Vancouver Whitecaps FC 1-0 in their second of two back-to-back games at BMO Field.


Toronto came out strong, eager to prove that they could put together another strong performance with just two days in between games. In the 15th minute, Pablo Piatti took a shot that deflected off of Alejandro Pozuelo and went straight to the feet of Richie Laryea at the top of the 18. Laryea blasted it past Vancouver goalkeeper Thomas Hasal to put the Toronto up 1-0. It marked Pozuelo's seventh assist of the season in as many games.


Vancouver struggled to get their offense going throughout the first half and while they were able to get more going in the beginning of the second half, they ultimately couldn't do enough to get on the scoreboard. Toronto FC goalkeeper Quentin Westberg earned his third clean sheet of the season.
