There's been little loot from Toronto's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 13 away games in the Major League Soccer. Toronto only have 1 win to counter their 8 defeats and 4 draws.

There might be some fixture complaints from Toronto as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous game, 1-2 against Inter Miami.

Insigne scored one goal, hit two key passes, dribled past the opponent 2 of 4 times and had 61 successful passes (of 72 total).

A draw for Toronto before that, at their own venue hosting New England (2-2).
