TFC vs Colorado Rapids: Match Preview

June 1, 2007 - Major League Soccer (MLS)
Toronto FC News Release


SCOUTING REPORT - Match Presented by Unico

After earning a 2-2 draw on the road against the Columbus Crew, TFC (2-5-1) will return to the friendly confines of BMO Field where they will meet the Colorado Rapids (4-2-3). The game in Columbus this past Saturday marked a few firsts for TFC. It was the clubs first-ever draw, first-ever points away from home, and first-ever goal away from home. We will build on the result from last game, but will be forced to do so without a few familiar faces. Sutton's absence will mean Srdjan Djekanovic (we call him Serge!) will get his first-ever start in goal for Toronto FC.

Colorado is currently sitting in 2nd place in the Western Conference with 15 points in nine games. Colorado will look to attack through their skilled front players, Herculez Gomez (#10), and Terry Cooke (#11). Gomez has three goals and one assist on the year so far, and leads the team with 28 shots. On their roster you will find former TFC players Conor Casey and Jose Cancela.
