Toronto FC hosts New York City FC in MLS Playoffs Conference Semifinals action on Sunday evening. All the information to tune into the Easter Conference playoffs match is listed below.
Toronto FC dispatched the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday night to win the franchise’s first MLS Playoffs match. Now they face a tough task as New York City FC comes to town. In its previous playoffs game, Toronto was able to exploit their opponent’s defense to score three times.
If they can repeat that performance on Sunday, then TFC will be in good shape as the series heads to New York City. TFC definitely has the talent to make a deep MLS Playoffs run, but the stars must align at home in order to produce as expected.
NYCFC secured the second seed and earned a bye from the knockout round. As a result, the NYCFC players hold the advantage when it comes to rest. However, they had to travel for this game. David Villa’s and Frank Lampard’s play are key to the expansion club reaching the playoffs in the second season.
The MLS Playoffs knockout round match between Toronto and NYCFC will be broadcasted live on Fox Sports 1 in the United States and TSN1 and TSN4 in Canada. Fans can stream Sunday’s MLS Playoffs match on Fox Sports Go, which requires cable authentication in order to use the service.
