Toronto FC secured a much-needed 1-0 victory against San Diego FC, driven by Theo Corbeanu's penalty goal. This win marked their fifth of the MLS season and helped the team bounce back from a 3-1 defeat previous to New York City FC. With eight points earned in five fixtures, Corbeanu expressed a desire to prove the team's worth. Head coach Robin Fraser praised Corbeanu's growth in confidence. Looking ahead, Fraser emphasized the need for continued momentum in upcoming matches, starting with a challenge against Nashville SC, who recently ended a losing streak with a significant win.
"We felt like we had a point to prove today," said goalscorer Corbeanu shortly after the win at Snapdragon Stadium.
"We're seeing a lot of maturity in Theo, in his decision making, and in his belief that he is going to be dangerous," said Fraser.
"We asked them to do some unusual things and to stay disciplined. It was a really good game from the guys. The level of engagement has to carry on now."
Nashville's loss to Miami brought their club-record 12-game unbeaten run to an end, though head coach B.J. Callaghan is keen to get a similar stretch up and running.
