Toronto FC have built up a winning tradition in recent years under current head coach Greg Vanney, but there's one record the Reds have amassed that could be a very good omen for their 2019 MLS Cup clash against the Seattle Sounders on Nov. 10 (3 pm ET | ABC, Univision, TUDN, TVAS, TSN).
With this MLS Cup set to take place at CenturyLink Field in Seattle instead of BMO Field in Toronto, what's TFC's all-time record in the Audi MLS Cup Playoffs in the United States? Believe it or not, the Canadian side have an unbeaten record of 4-0-1 in five games played south of the border in the postseason.
- 2016 Eastern Conference Semifinals, Leg 2: 5-0 win over NYCFC
- 2017 Eastern Conference Semifinals, Leg 1: 2-1 win over RBNY
- 2017 Eastern Conference Championship, Leg 1: 0-0 draw at Columbus Crew SC
- 2019 Eastern Conference Semifinal: 2-1 win over NYCFC
- 2019 Eastern Conference Final: 2-1 win over Atlanta United
While the first three games on American soil came in two-legged playoff series, the most recent pair – coming this year in the new single-elimination format in all rounds – were do-or-die clashes. Can Toronto FC keep their unbeaten record alive in the US in the postseason at MLS Cup? Be sure to tune in on Nov. 10.
