The South Couch Report : New England v Toronto

I wonder how the Ref is gonna Fagundez us tonight? Kidding, they’re beyond criticism. Toronto lines up in a 4-4-2 and in their away kit. Because all red clashes with navy and white. Sure. New England have Alex Bunbury’s son. On to the match : 2’ – Lee Nguyen gets a gift from the defenders and breaks in one on one with Irwin, Clint coming up with a big stop. 6’ – Morrow and Rowe, woah, throw for Morrow...
