10' Goal - Robbie Findley - So far, so good!
Only 1-0 up against a HS team??
Bez and Vanney out
Wish they posted the lineup, would've been a good indicator of the formation Vanney might prefer.
The match is being played with three sets of 30 minutes.

Best part of the tweets for today's match is watching Duane Rollins having a mental meltdown.
Is Grapes on in the second intermission?

I know it's a friendly and it's not supposed to matter ... but lol, it's a little sad to let in two goals against a high school team.. 2 - 2 right now.
Hamilton scores his second. 3 - 2
Cracking ball from Oso on the first. Jay Chapman assisting on the last 2.
Nice.

Does anyone know the formation and lineup Vanney used?
The guys have been in Florida for what - three or four days, with half the likely starters either off on national duty or still in transit. Consider this as the footie equivalent of taking that first bucket of balls to the driving range to work on that crappy slice that you developed at the end of last golf season, and to see just how much rust crept into your swing over the winter.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
It looked like they played mostly the newcomers and depth players in this game. Not bad I guess. Was it just me or did those players seem to be older than high-schoolers? I'd like to see a whole game against decent opposition at the Suncoast Pro classic before commenting on TFC's 2015 chances. And why are they going back to Toronto, then back to Florida again for the tournament?
Nobody wants to be away from the wife and kids and girlfriends for 3 weeks straight.

“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”
-Eduardo Galeano
The schools they played today has a high performance athlete program, it's not your average HS.

The coverage reflects the match importance. An academy team helped our club with an early scrimmage. We're all just gagging for the season to start.
This is akin to the Iceland friendlies last month. Just a team looking for games in good weather.
