Toronto FC advances to champions league semis
Toronto FC defeated the LA Galaxy on wednesday night in the return game of the CONCACAF champions league by the score of 2-1, to advance to the American (the continent) champions league semifinal.
Unlike last week, Toronto FC was able to hold their lead. In the 89th minute of the game in Toronto, David Beckham produced a beautiful corner kick, after almost receiving a beer bottle on the head from a drunk fan, to help Landon Donovan tie up the game at 2.
Ryan Johnson and Nick Soolsma scored for the winners, who become the first canadian team to reach the champions league semifinal.
Toronto FC will now face the Mexican team Santos Laguna, who had no problem defeating the Seattle Sounders by an aggregate of 7-3.
