28 ’- GOAL! Toronto FC 1-0 FC Cincinnati: Patrick Mullins with a great first arrival after a fantastic job from Richie Laryea on the right side to bring him back to his striker This is another assist for Canada international & Pozuelo also gets an assist on the game to bring out Richie This is the 10th of the season at the top of the Spanish league

24 ’- LUCK! Pozuelo nearly folds one at the far post after an excellent preparation play from the Reds, but his shot just outside the box goes far The Spaniard kicks himself after missing that one

20 ‘- It was definitely a foul on Liam Fraser in a 1v1 call, but we will take the no-call Fraser has done well in the 20 minutes so far He’s had a real impact on the game on both sides of the ball Yellow card now to Jonathan Osorio for a pretty stupid foul Useless extra-curricular tricks after an initial foul by the Canadian midfielder

15 ‘- The longer Cincinnati can stay in this game, the more his confidence will grow He’s rusty, admittedly, but at first Patrick Mullins has to be better He doesn’t give Pozuelo much to work with centrally and there is had real opportunities to create a high-risk scoring chance or two that came to naught Like Akinola this is an audition for Mullins for more playing time even when / if Altidore returns

8 ‘- As expected, every TFC early on I’d love to see the Reds get one here early to open the game Cincinnati basically gives up everyone behind the ball (to anyone’s surprise) As I hit this, Cincy catches TFC asleep on the counter and Omar Gonzalez is called out for the foul on the edge of his own box First yellow card to Gonzalez here No problem from FK, because the wall is doing its job Must have been Vanney shouting at them profusely

4 ’- Once again I’m super excited to see what Jayden Nelson has up his sleeve tonight Nice little taste of it from the start of the left side involvement

1 ’- Players take one knee before kick-off to protest racial injustice And we’re off Come on you reds

7:38 pm EST: from cbeaulieu in the comments: “Let’s see what PM (Patrick Mullins) can do with most of the first team with him Glad to see LF (Liam Fraser) take another departure Hopefully EZ (Eriq Zavaleta) can keep it together there « 

7:36 pm EST – Not sure if it’s a hot plug or not, but Pratt & Whitney Stadium & Rentschler Field looks prettier than FC Cincinnati Stadium

7:34 pm EST – Shout Nick Hagglund who starts FC Cincinnati tonight He has recovered from COVID and is healthy enough to fall back to the side of CB against his former team However, with the way TFC is playing right now – winner of four straight games – there probably won’t be much room for error

7:24 pm EST – It’s quiet here tonight Everyone too busy stuffing their faces before game time or what? I hope the TFC are still hungry

7:17 pm EST – Friendly reminder to get those pre-kick-off score estimates in our Prediction League! While you’re at it, check out who’s near the top! Come on folks, you can’t let me win Don’t worry, for what it’s worth, if I finish first second place will still get me a prize 🙂

I’m feeling great just a forced rest but will be back with the squad for the next game #TFCLive @TorontoFC

7:08 pm EST – How are we feeling tonight? I can’t wait to see how Jayden is doing tonight He’s really in a position to pull off starting on the left side against Cincinnati, as opposed to how we’ve seen him used in the past I’m expecting something special

6:50 pm EST – This Isn’t Just Any Sunday Night Game Against FC Cincinnati A lot is at stake tonight as the Reds have the opportunity to become MLS First Team to land a playoff berth If that isn’t appealing enough to you, how about a glimpse into the future as some of the young guns (Jayden Nelson, Liam Fraser and perhaps the youngest signatory from TFC, Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty who is on the bench) are involved tonight for Greg Vanney’s side Thanks for joining me, Happy Thanksgiving everyone, and go you Reds

The young guns! Jayden Nelson takes the start, while Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty finds a spot on the Toronto FC bench

TORONTO, Canada – Toronto FC head to Ohio in great shape to face FC Cincinnati for only the third time in MLS

The Reds land at Cinci looking to win seven straight undefeated games as their hot streak puts them in charge of the Supporters Shield and a win far from coming back to the MLS Cup Playoffs

TFC just won a tough 1-0 away result of the New England Revolution thanks to yet another bulldozer race Ayo Akinola The future 20-year-old Canadian international was a revelation at the top in Jozy’s place Altidore, often injured this season

Cincinnati struggled in their second season, especially offensively, scoring just eight times in sixteen games, a low in MLS in that department They enter this one in a four-game dry spell after being held off the scoresheet since their 1-0 win over the New York Red Bulls on September 19.

Greg Vanney will again be deprived of the services of a trio of key Altidore veterans Michael Bradley and Justin Morrow As Morrow and Bradley appear to be moving towards fitness in the near future, news on Altidore is a lot less encouraging, although not shocking at the moment

#TFCLive Vanney says Michael Bradley (knee) just breaks through a few final hurdles but he’s right there Just reading between the lines here it doesn’t look like he’ll be involved on Sunday against Cincinnati, but he’s very close

For Cincinnati, the story is much the same as three team members in Siem De Jong, Andrew Gutman and Jimmy McLaughlin were sidelined with injury Former TFC defenseman Nick Hagglund is Also out of action for a few weeks after testing positive for COVID-19 The 28-year-old Ohio native has made 88 appearances for the Reds in five years with the club

After playing on an artificial surface at Gillette Stadium midweek, TFC are back on the pitch at Nippert Stadium on Sunday although the team’s rotation is very likely given the crowded fixture list that Toronto face, the group makes sure not to dismiss their opponent despite their place in the standings

#TFCLive CB Omar Gonzalez on lack of complacency to FC Cincinnati on Sunday: « I think we know what can happen more than anyone We have lost points this season against teams, we shouldn’t have lost of points We’re still mad at these it’s on us It’s up to us to show ourselves « 

In their previous two MLS clashes, TFC are a perfect two-for-two against the Orange and Blue A 2-1 win at BMO Field last July was followed by a 5-1 win over the road during the reverse match in September

For the trilogy game, it’s a battle between two teams with very different motivations For Toronto, anything but three points would be a setback in their quest to reclaim the supporters’ shield they held in 2017 Conversely, Cinci will be content to find the back of the net and progress to get out of the cellar of the Eastern Conference.

We anticipate a LOT of changes tonight for Greg Vanney’s starting xi against a struggling FC Cincinnati team

Kicks off at 7:30 p.m. EST tonight and Canadians can watch on TSN 2 or stream it on all TSN digital platforms
