“I knew there was no pressure on Justin so I busted my ass to get there and I was at the right spot at the right time,” Nyassi said.

To put that in perspective, Dwayne De Rosario won the Golden Boot last season... with 16 goals. Wondo has already surpassed that total. In July.

Toronto FC confirmed Monday that leading scorer Danny Koevermans will miss the rest of the 2012 season with an ACL tear in his left knee

Despite picking up three points the Reds did suffer a big loss with Danny Koevermans injuring his left knee late in the first half and had to be stretchered off the field.

Koevermans has had a deadly strike rate in MLS having scored 17 goals in just 25 matches since joining Toronto midway through last season.
