Some Soccer News for Oct 15, 2015
Sebastian Giovinco played on Tuesday in Rome for Italy, got on a plane the next morning, flew to Toronto, went straight to the stadium, came on as a sub in the 71st minute and did this!!!! (The goal clinched the teams playoff berth in their miserable 9 year history too)
Here's a slightly longer version:
After 8 years of near total ineptitude TFC finally found the Atomic Ant who has led them to the playoffs for the first time. That means a lot to a city that has clung to a miserable team all these years.
Oof! You know whats kinda funny though, with the Blue Jays making a strong run in the Major League Baseball the city has their attention diverted elsewhere and no one except the die-hards has seemed to notice.
Jozy Altidore on the other hand did all he could to sabotage his team, getting a red card in the 34th minute, while SITTING ON THE BENCH! Word is that he abused the referees so bad that he got sent to the showers. Let see how long his suspension is!!!

What the USMNT needs is a dose of humility. By Grant Wahl of Sports Illustrated.
Who was good in the Costa Rica game for the USA? Howard, Evans, Cameron, Woods and Ream. Everyone else was terrible.
