MLS is returning to action over the course of the weekend. We have two games on tonight, beginning in...
New York, as the Red Bulls host Toronto FC. Joe Bendik and Luis Robles are in goal. Toronto picked up a yellow card in the eleventh minute on a Justin Morrow foul. New York opened the scoring with a thirty-sixth minute goal by Peguy Luyindula, assisted by Ambroise Oyongo Bitolo and Thierry Henry. Toronto tied it in the fifty-fifth minute as Jermain Defoe scored, thanks to Dominic Oduro and Jonathan Osorio. Toronto took the lead with a seventy-second minute goal by Gilberto, going in unassisted. The Red Bulls salvaged a tie three minutes into stoppage time as Bradley Wright-Phillips scored, with the help of Tim Cahill and Matt Miazga. The man of the match was Wright-Phillips for his late equalizer, making it a 2-2 final.
Out west, the other match is the Portland Timbers hosting Sporting Kansas City. Eric Kronberg and Donovan Ricketts are the keepers. Kansas City was first to score in the twenty-fourth minute on a goal by Lawrence Olum, set up by Kevin Ellis and Seth Sinovic. Sinovic also found himself in the book in the thirty-sixth minute for an off the ball foul, Sporting's first yellow card of the game. Kansas City had another yellow card in the sixty-fifth minute for a foul by Ellis. The teams traded yellow cards in stoppage time, with Paulo Nagamura getting one for time wasting for Sporting, while Portland got one for a Will Johnson foul. Kansas City picked up another yellow card after that as Dominic Dwyer committed a foul. The final stood at 1-0, with Kronberg being the man of the match for a clean sheet with three saves.
