Toronto Lynx News Release
(Toronto, ON) Miami FC have confirmed that Brazilian superstar Romario has accompanied the team to Toronto in advance of tomorrow's match against the hometown Toronto Lynx at Centennial Park Stadium and the striker will be in the line-up when the two teams kick off at 11:00 AM.
"It's always a pleasure to see a player like Romario on the field - whether you're playing with or against him because he's such a special player", said defender Lynx Tony Menezes who also played with Romario in 2003 with Fluminense in Brazil. "He's difficult to defend because if you give him a metre, he'll find the net. It's like being in the jungle with lions - if you close your eyes for just a second you'll get caught. I enjoyed playing with him much more than I will playing against him."
Grass seating remains available and tickets may be purchased at the gate prior to the match. Centennial Park Stadium is located in Etobicoke northwest of the intersection of Rathburn Road and Renforth Drive.
