Toronto FC thumps FC Dallas 4-0

Recap:
Toronto FC:
Edu (22)
Dichio (25)
Robinson (65)
Cunningham (92+)

Dallas:
NO SCORING

Summary:
A tired looking FC Dallas squad posed little resistance to the Toronto FC attack as the TFC rolled to a convincing 4-0 victory in front of a raucous Father's Day crowd at BMO Field.

TFC Midfielder Carl Robinson put in a brilliant performance, earning two assists and scoring his first ever MLS goal, as he lead the attack and distributed the ball from his position at centre. Ronnie O'brien played an intense game against his former club, and FC Dallas had no answer for the combination of Cunningham and Dichio up front. Even after Dichio was substituted due to an apparent ankle injury, his replacement, youngster Andrea Lombardo, was given acres of space to roam free, undoubtedly due to the attention paid to Cunningham's skill and speed. Backup goalkeeper Srdjan Djekanovic earned the clean sheet for TFC.

TOTAL TFC MotM: Carl Robinson
