TORONTO — Everything is new these days for Toronto FC's Tyrese Spicer, from scoring his first MLS goal to seeing himself in a video game. And the rookie wingback from Trinidad and Tobago can't stop smiling. The 23-year-old is enjoying Toronto on and off the field. "It's been really good," he said in his lilting accent. "I think I've really adapted to the culture here. It's a very multicultural place, Toronto. I really like it." Spicer, the first overall pick in the 2024 MLS SuperDraft, made his

Toronto FC's search for a forward to complement Italian stars Lorenzo Insigne and Federico Bernardeschi continues as the MLS transfer window nears its close.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Toronto FC showed resolve in coming back twice at Charlotte FC on Saturday. But once again it paid the price for what coach John Herdman called "self-destruct moments." Goals by substitute Prince Owusu helped tie the game at 1-1 and 2-2, with Toronto appearing to have secured a point with the German forward's second in the 78th minute. But woeful defending cost Toronto (3-4-1) in a 3-2 loss, its third straight defeat. "It's been three weeks, two particularly, of self-destruct m
