Here are the updated standings:
Toronto FC
We Won! 4-1!! Against DC United, oh. Against DC United’s B/C squad, ohh. Bright
Dike scored his first, Alvaro Rey scored his first and created an own goal, and
Darel Russell had an incredible turning volley goal that is up for Goal of the
Week honours. But
against any other team this game would have been completely different. DC was resting their squad for a game later
tonight in the US Open Cup where if they win they will not only win hardware
and a spot in the 2014-2015 CONCACAF Champions League but they will pull as I like
to call it a “Toronto” where even though you are in last place in your league
you are a part of the “Champions” League.
Really though with the defensive lineup put out there of Morgan,
Agbossoumonde, Henry, and Bloom any team could rip us to shreds. So let’s enjoy the win and see it for what it
was a meaningless game that is one step, winning games you are supposed to win,
of the thousands of steps needed to turn this club around.
Movers of the Week
Both Portland and Seattle got 6 points closer to clinching a
playoff spot in the West through winning their respective games this week while
Vancouver gave them the other three points through their loss. While Vancouver and FC Dallas both got 3
points closer to being eliminated from the playoffs through their losses. While in the East a rather inactive week occurred
with New York, Montreal, and Houston all getting 2 points closer to clinching
through draws gaining them 1 point and the highest max points of a non-playoff
team dropping by 1. Chicago was the
biggest loser in the East with a draw dropping 2 points and then the 5th
place points total moved up 2 for a total of 4 points closer to elimination.
It really is getting close with all teams in the bottom of
half of the west being less than 10 points away from being eliminated. In the East though it is much more likely for
one of the currently non-playoff teams to fight their way into the playoffs my
money is on Columbus to beat out Philly for that last playoff spot in the East.
