Gameday Report: August 9, Week 20 By USLLeagueOne.com Staff, 08/09/19, 6:04PM EDT Big first half powers Triumph SC to victory against Toronto and into top four in standings Toronto FC II (1), Greenville Triumph SC (3) Greenville Triumph SC rode three first-half goals to a third consecutive victory as it defeated Toronto FC II at the BMO Training Ground and moved into fourth place in the League One standings to kick off the weekend’s action. Key Events: Greenville took the lead in just the seventh minute when Dominic Boland cleaned up the rebound from Omar Mohamed’s shot from the edge of the penalty area after TFC II goalkeeper Yann-Alexandre Fillion made the initial save. Triumph SC doubled its lead just past the half-hour mark as Jake Keegan redirected a challenge at the edge of Toronto’s penalty area to Xavier Gomez. The initial shot by Gomez was saved, but he took the rebound and centered for Keegan to tap home his ninth goal of the season. Keegan’s goal moved him into a tie for the league-lead alongside North Texas SC’s Ronaldo Damus. Three minutes later Mohamed added his name to the scoresheet when Gomez cut back a low cross from the right toward the penalty spot that picked out the late-arriving midfielder, earning Gomez his second assist of the contest. Toronto’s Ayo Akinola pulled a goal back in the 64th minute after coming on as a halftime substitute as he ran onto a through-ball from Matt Srbely for a first-time finish past the advancing goalkeeper. Greenville twice almost restored its two-goal lead soon after as both Paul Clowes and Aaron Walker had chances denied by Fillion. Triumph SC goalkeeper Dallas Jaye also made an important save with 14 minutes to go to keep out a low shot by TFC II’s Jordan Perruzza that took a deflection on its way to goal. Greenville would see out the remainder of the contest, however, to end the day in the playoff positions in League One. 4-5-1 4-1-4-1 Toronto FC II Greenville Triumph 1 3 August 9, 2019 4:00 PM Venue BMO Training Ground Attendance 153 Referee Carly Shaw-MacLaren Toronto FC II 30 Fillion GK 90+1' Yellow card 37 Waja DF 57 Mohammed DF 60' Yellow card 61 Romeo DF 42 Bunk-Andersen DF 35 Essoussi MF 45' subbed out 39 Petrasso MF 59 Okello MF 43 Ovalle (C) MF 70' Yellow card 58 Faria MF 45' subbed out 77 Perruzza FW 83' subbed out Substitutes 40 Klenofsky 81 Antonoglou 85 Carlini 50 Srbely 45' subbed in 20 Akinola 45' subbed in, 64' GOAL 64 Hundal 83' subbed in Manager Rabasca Greenville Triumph SC 22 Jaye GK 5 Hemmings DF 3 Polak DF 23' Yellow card 12 Lee DF 14 Seiler DF 6 Clowes MF 75' Yellow card, 79' subbed out 2 Boland MF 7' GOAL, 62' subbed out 8 Walker (C) MF 18 Mohamed MF 34' GOAL 9 Keegan FW 31' GOAL 10 Gómez FW 89' subbed out Substitutes 19 Quezada 13 Choi Sang-Ryeong 4 Politz 79' subbed in 7 Bermudez 21 Guediri 89' subbed in 31 Robinson 62' subbed in 88 Ward Manager Harkes TFC II GREENVILLE 54.4% Possession 45.6% 38.0% Duels success rate 62.0% 38.1% Aerial duels won 61.9% 9 Interceptions 21 2 Offsides 4 4 Corners 4 453 Passes 373 48 Long passes 85 82.1% Passing accuracy 75.6% 75.3% Passing acc in opp half 65.5% 9 Crosses 13 22.2% Crossing accuracy 23.1% 1 Goals 3 13 Shots 12 6 Shots on target 8 2 Blocked shots 1 9 Shots outside the box 4 4 Shots inside the box 8 46.2% Shooting accuracy 66.7% 13 Tackles 29 92.3% Tackles success rate 79.3% 9 Clearances 5 19 Fouls conceded 10 3 Yellow cards 2 0 Red cards 0
