Vancouver crowded the midfield to stop the advance to the wingers and then took advantage of a slow responding centre back and another extremely slow left back. This was amateur football on behalf of TFC. It wasnt until TFC switched to a 5-3-2 and crowded the backfield that they were able to stop Vancouver progressing freely to the wide areas.

Post Game Conclusion:

No reliable Left back to push forward, Sturgis was horrendous as a defensive midfielder and Harden absolutely has to be dumped. I don't see how he can hold on to a job after this display.
