FC Dallas’ Jack Stewart heads home the winner against Toronto FC in the first half – CCL News 
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Toronto-FC-c40744, on Thursday, August 25.
The game got off to a slow start and the first attempt at goal came as late as the 15th minute, when left-winger http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Brek-Shea-c8033 tried his luck. His try failed to trouble the goalkeeper as it flew high and wide of the goal.
Later on, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Torsten-Frings-c35477 tried to win the ball from the visitors and fouled Shea in the attempt, winning a yellow card for his troubles.
In the 39th minute, Joao Plata received a pass from Gianluca Zavarise and fired a shot from outside the box. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Kevin-Hartman-c20728, however, was up to the task.
The Canadians continued with their physical approach and finally paid for it. Richard Eckersley, who had been playing a physical game since the start, dragged Marvin Chavez down in the penalty area. The referee pointed to the penalty spot right away and
showed the Reds’ defender a yellow card.
The Toros skipper, Daniel Hernandez, stepped forward, but his attempt was predictable and Milos Kocic parried his shot away.
The Hoops did not give up and were rewarded for their efforts as the match entered the first half stoppage time. Jack Stewart headed home from a http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ugo-Ihemelu-c35675 cross from the left flank.
The visitors entered the second half with a 1-0 lead and focused on keeping possession of the game. The team created good openings in the second half as well but failed to add further to the score line.
The original first leg of Group C match was scheduled for the Wednesday night, but harsh weather conditions had forced the game to be postponed to Thursday and as per CCL rules, it had to be restarted.
The Toros now lead the group with two wins, while the Canadian’s drop to second spot after recording their first defeat.
