By Oscar Cortes
The team finds themselves at a pivotal moment in the season, having managed their matches well thus far.
In this early stage of the season, they've already played 10 MLS games with highly positive results, raising expectations of returning to the MLS Playoffs higher than ever.
In May, the team will have to contend with a tight schedule, playing 6 MLS matches. The aim is to secure several points out of a possible 18 in the month.
Here are the fixtures Toronto FC will face in May:
- Toronto FC vs Dallas (May 4th)
- Toronto FC vs New York City (May 11th)
- Nashville vs Toronto FC (May 15th)
- Toronto FC vs CF Montréal (May 18th)
- Toronto FC vs Cincinnati (May 25th)
- Philadelphia Union vs Toronto FC (May 29th)
Of these 6 matches, they will play 4 at home and only 2 away, which is a positive advantage for Toronto FC. Reduced travel means they can focus on leveraging their home advantage to gain points in these 6 fixtures in May.
Key Sporting Work at TFC
Their footballing quality appears to be on the rise, with coach John Herdman doing an excellent job with the squad, aiming to strengthen both their defense and offense on the field. While it seems the attacking solution is resolved, thanks to the effectiveness of Prince Owusu and the support provided by players like Federico Bernardeschi, Jonathan Osorio, and others to complement the team's strong attack.
The Reds have a great mentality this season, and there's evident dedication to playing well to secure victories based on their sporting level and a winning mindset, which is crucial for achieving their goals of competing in the MLS this season.
