    Frei was their entire team. Credit to him. But this was TFCs game. I've waited a decade for this. I'm fucking thrilled

    Thanks man.

    You know what’s funny? Everyone’s prediction was right. We effing walked all over them, and yet it was still a nailbiter.

    Bradley was insane today. I've always held his very first game for us, away to Seattle in 2014, as the best game I've ever seen him play, but he surpassed it tonight. It seemed like every time Seattle got the ball going forward, they ran into Bradley. He was everywhere. Monster performance.

    Supreme classy move by the Gregfather to bring in Cheyrou at the end before his retirement.

    Altidore and Vasquez will get most of the credit for this win but Giovinco made both goals happen. I hope he isn't overlooked.

    Dempsey and Bruin were alternating getting stripped silly by Bradley & Co, or getting slide tackled by Mavinga. It was glorious.

    Agreed, I hoped it would happen. Great ending for Uncle Ben.

    That being said, I really think he still holds some value if he can keep fit. I'm curious if he see through the CCL or calls it a day. Either way, big fan of his!

    Incredible I’m 53 been following all incarnations of pro soccer since my dad started taking me to whatever Soccer there was back in the day as a kid, and he is the reason I love this game so much. This is a championship for all those years spent watching , playing and coaching this crazy game in this city, to win it in our stadium and our city with these incredible fans in our stadium is truly amazing, season ticket holder since day one , to be in that stadium and witness TFC win it all just amazing. Bradley is the heart he is the engine that keeps this team going, in any sport if you want to win you have to have a Michael Bradley. What a season , what a team , every time I doubted them they kept proving me wrong, I was afraid that we would never have the chance to ever win it at home if we did not win it this year, but we did, just incredible what a feeling, I will never forget this game and this season, we did it Champions baby we are the champions baby !

    Seattle was well down in the lower half of teams I watched us play at BMO this year. They were thoroughly outplayed from whistle to whistle.

    Nice call Ensco.

    Well, after 11 years we are finally here.

    From the "worst team in the world" to Champions. Still have a hard time believing it.

    Excited to see what this team can do in CCL.

    Watched the MLS 4 min highlight, was pretty much TFC scoring chance after chance, nothin for Seattle.

    Won't speak of any individual player, everyone played out of their minds and the coaching was perfect.

    The high press with Vazquez bursting down the middle to pressure Frei overwhelmed them.
    Bradley & Delgado/Osorio hunted down Lodeiro to smother him any time the ball was sent his way.
    Vazquez exploiting the space behind the slow Marshall with laser precise throughballs ...

    Just amazing.

    Congrats on the win....not an easy feat and considering where we started it still feels a bit dreamlike. Hard to describe.

    Was Vasquez given a yellow for taking off his jersey, or is that no longer a card worthy infraction? Maybe the ref just didn't care with 5 seconds left anyways.

    MLS stats show one yellow was given to TFC, perhaps that was the one to Vazquez? I can't remember any other yellows.

    Happy for our players. Can't wait for Champions League, thankfully we don't have to wait that long.

    I just noticed that Benoit, in his few minutes on the pitch, got the interception and setup the play that led to the 2nd goal!

    Captain America. Captain Toronto. Man of the match for me tonight. Last time a player in Toronto was this good his name was Roberto Alomar.

    Such a historic night.

    Osorio was awesome too, I have to give him a shout out. Highest passing percentage in the game, 95.7%! He was great on the ball all night.
