66:15 – Every Way You Want It

Roldan, Svensson and Marshall all get schooled as TFC volleyball it up the field. Seba’s placement and weight on this ball are perfection, otherwise it’s offside. Jozy does his bit to cleverly stay onside, and is running at top speed on a bad right ankle, which is his plant foot.

Jozy

We have had seven incredible, game saving or game changing, series winning, championship winning, massive playoff goals for us over the last two years, and Jozy has five of them, and was a key part of the two others.

It is impossible to exaggerate how great he has been

Besides 66:15, here are the other six goals....

NYCFC first leg last year. Nervous, edgy game, nothing like the second leg blowout. We couldn’t find a way though. 84th minute. If we go back to NY at 0-0, that’s a very different second leg. This is where the magic started, in retrospect:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NkNFLSf8ZZA

Montreal first leg: we were dead, until he scored. Dead. (That's a nifty little ball from Seba, btw. It would have been easy to just blast it, nobody would have blamed him.)

Montreal second leg: one of the all time TFC goals. The skill Seba and Jozy show here is unreal. Interesting to realize that much of Seba’s value to TFC in the last year has been in his service to Jozy in key moments.

12-13-2017, 05:25 PM
Cheyrou’s goal and Ricketts’ goal against Montreal leg two last year also belong in here. Jozy is in on both of them, and of course did a lot of the work alone on the Ricketts clincher.

Columbus last week. Maybe the best goal in TFC history, from a team skill perspective. Also from a wounded warrior perspective.

Bonus content. Here is Jozy’s story as put out by TFC in 2015. A lot of great stuff in this. The USMNT highlights really say something about what quality he has always been, and what a bunch of ingrates USMNT fans are. (btw check out who provides the service on Jozy’s first USMNT goal at 5:30)

I agree, really unbelievable how clutch Jozy has been in the playoffs.

For me, Jozy's goal from Saturday is tied for top team-skill goal. Reason: starting with Marky's interception/pass at the edge of our own box, there were 5 one-touch passes; then 2 touches each by Seba & Jozy; then the ball in their net 13 seconds after Marky's touch at the opposite end.

I know there's a cleaner version of this skycam view out there. I saw it embedded in one of the 99+ articles I've read in the past few days. Maybe somebody can find it. In the meantime, this is good enough to show how awesome the whole sequence was:

Indeed. What I love about this club is that we always seem to eventually get redemption.

Miss out on the first Canadian Championship after tying USL-level Montreal at home and watch them celebrate (how Julius James missed that tap-in, I do not know) at BMO only to pull the 1-6 Miracle in Montreal win the next season.

We miss out on the playoffs by getting thrashed by the Red Bulls on the last day of the season, but our first ever playoff clinch is against that same club, only a few years later.

The first playoff game we ever play we get destroyed by Montreal but the following year we are the ones that knock them out in dramatic fashion.

And of course Seattle.

Fantastic collection - thanks for putting together.

I had completely forgotten about Ricketts terrible swing-and-a-miss in the NYC game last year before Jozy put it in. Ricketts absolutely has NO left foot abilities, and that moment completely summed it up.

Vazquez seems to enjoy doing this huh? I remember him doing the same thing to Robles (ironically on a goal that was called back) earlier this year, and I could've sworn he did it on another occasion as well... check him at 3:05.

So many great videos here. Great idea to do this, @ensco

The Jozy goals and involvement in goals for us during our runs cannot be understated. The guy has been a playoff giant for us and is a legend.

Michael Bradley. Everywhere.

Giovinco pulling strings and setting up plays.

Vazquez doing his thing.

Cheyrou making the big veteran plays in key moments.

Alex Bono making those saves this season to keep us in games (that stop on BWP is one for the ages and may have saved our season).

We could go down the list of players and likely pick a big moment for each of them. Mavinga stepping up with a huge defensive game against NYRB springs to mind. Hagglund's smashing header. Edwards' blocked shot late. Cooper's tricky ball skills killing off games and his huge fake on Frei that lead to the Vazquez goal, plus mixing things up in the middle and making big plays to keep the ball. Osorio's tenacity and fight in the final, as well as his almost perfect passing record...

Those are just a few of the moments I'll treasure from not just this year, but last year's run as well. What a team. What a run. What great memories to cherish for a lifetime.

The passing between Vazquez and Giovinco on that Columbus goal, followed by Jozy's finish, is some real top class shit.

We've come a long way from balls aimlessly pinballing around peoples' shins, and strikers who just kicked the ball as hard as they could in the general direction of the net.

Enjoy !!
MY TFC works!
It’s the reason I can’t sleep
It’s the middle of the nite
I’m not alone
That my thoughts-they might be right
I feel it may work
Greg Vanney’s plan works
Our Reds make it work
Formations and switches
Give the Players a break
But when the sun hits KIA Training Grounds
They’ll gravitate
Bradley dons his Shirt
He knows it will work
They assemble from afar
Coming in by planes
To take it past the bar
Setting a brand new record pace
Our Reds are hard at work
Altidore will work
Osorio since birth
Vasquez will work
Tim B says Don’t Hate!
We are here to play
The Grounds Crew works on that pitch
every single fricken day
Lieweke was berserk-he knew it would work
Our Reds made it work
We PROUDLY wear our Shirts
We broke through all the pain
No matter where you are
In love with Toronto, I remain
Giovinco proved his worth
Gold Star on Red Shirts
TFC’s REBIRTH !!
TFC’s REBIRTH !!
Na NaNaNa Na Na
Na NaNa NaNa
Na NaNaNa NaNa
Na NaNaNa Na Na Na Na
The reason I lost sleep
In the middle of the nite
I wasn’t alone
That the Sounders - they weren’t right
I knew that it would work
Greg Vanney’s plan worked
Our Reds made it work
With Fellow Supporters
We all made it work
Scarves up ‘til it hurts
We all made it work
Day 1 Fans were heard
My Reds made it work
TFC’s Rebirth !!
TFC’s Rebirth !!

Athough the in stadium attmosphere was amazing and it will equal any of the big 3 sports teams in in stadium atmosphere if any of those big 3 teams won a championship in their arenas and stadium, I found the outside stadium celebration to be a bit underwhelming. I left BMO about 45 minutes after the final whistle and it wasn’t as crazy as I would have imagined it if TFC would have ever won the MLS Cup at home. Even walking through Liberty Village was not as celebratory as I thought, walking a long King Street it was pretty quite , I thought I would hear and see some honking and flags but I saw nothing. Moreover , on my way home up Bathurst Street all the way north to Steeles, nothing not one car flag or any evidence of a TFC MLS Cup win,not even the odd car flag or anything. Moreover, you walk into any sports clothing store and finding any TFC championship merchandise is like trying to find gold in my garden . It just shows that TFC is still a very niche team that has its followers but hardly anything outside of the niche following.

I freely admit that I was wiped after the game. I'm not sure if it was all the emotional energy that went into these playoffs combined with the sheer joy (and relief) of finally, finally getting to the top, but I was drained. I went to Shoeless Joe's for a while, ate something and had a couple of beers and sort of just basked in the glow. It almost felt surreal.

We left probably 10 minutes after the final Viking clap near the supporters and got caught up in the toothpaste going through the Go tunnel. Lots of singing and chanting and impromptu TFC claps going on. I thought it was pretty good atmosphere.
