Dominic Oduro’s team-leading ninth MLS goal of 2013 was not enough to prevent a late Toronto FC comeback, as the Columbus Crew (6-10-5, 23 points) fell to the Reds (3-10-8, 17 points) on Saturday afternoon at BMO Field. Oduro’s goal came in 17th minute, with Matias Sanchez providing the assist. The Ghanaian forward beat TFC goalkeeper Joe Bendik at his near post, giving the Black & Gold a 1-0 lead heading into halftime.
Unfortunately that score would not last, as the home side came storming back with two late goals. Jonathan Osorio made it 1-1 in the 87th minute, before Andrew Wiedeman netted the go-ahead goal in stoppage time. The loss is the Crew’s first at BMO Field since the club’s inaugural visit in 2007, moving Columbus’ overall record in Toronto to 3-1-5 all-time.
Robert Warzycha’s side looks to get back on track against Eastern Conference foe Houston Dynamo on Saturday, August 3 (9:00 p.m. ET / FOX Sports Ohio) at BBVA Compass Stadium.
