I wish there was a highlight clips of these games or at least box score.

Anyway, congrats to both teams. Having two team in the finals is huge and shows where we stand in MLS. :scarf:

Toronto lost 5-4 tp philly in the U17 final on PKs. Hamilton and Wadid scored for TFC.

Toronto lost 2-1 to chivas in the U15 final. Ucello got the goal fot TFC as well as the golden boot with 5 goals in 5 games.


"Toronto FC made history on Thursday at the 2012 Generation adidas Cup, but it was not enough for the Reds to lift any hardware at Starfire Sports Complex.The Canadian club became the first academy to send both of its teams to the finals of the six-year-old MLS youth competition.
Ultimately, Toronto FC came up just short in both contests with a 4-3 defeat in penalty kicks to Philadelphia Union in the U17 final and a 2-1 overtime loss to Chivas USA (http://www.topdrawersoccer.com/club-soccer/club-soccer-team-rankings/club-soccer-team-profile/men/u16/tid-3534/chivas-usa) in the U15 championship match.
TFC, the lone MLS club without representation in the USSF Development Academy, impressed many coaches and scouts this week with sound technical play from every player on the roster.
“Toronto FC is a good team,” Philadelphia Union U17 head coach Jim Curtin told TopDrawerSoccer.com. “Their U15 team is very good too. It was good competition.”
