Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - Toronto FC concluded its home campaign in
disappointing fashion, playing to a 0-0 draw with the Montreal Impact at BMO
Field on Saturday.
Scoring chances were at a premium in the stalemate, though Marco Di Vaio
produced the best opportunity of the day. The Italian striker latched on to a
low cross from Davy Arnaud in the dying minutes and fired a one-time shot that
looked destined for the back of the net, but Toronto defender Richard
Eckersley made a brilliant reaction block.
Toronto (5-20-8) remains bottom of the Eastern Conference despite improving to
23 points. The Reds will conclude their abysmal season on Oct. 28 when they
travel to Crew Stadium to take on the Columbus Crew.
Montreal (12-15-6) improves to 42 points and will wrap up its debut season in
MLS with a home match against the New England Revolution on Oct. 27.
