Toronto FC II (4W-5L-2T, 14 points) dropped to a 1-3 result to New York City FC II (6W-3L-3T, 22 points) at York Lions Stadium on Wednesday evening.

TFC II Head Coach Gianni Cimini made four changes from Sunday’s starting eleven against New York Red Bulls II with Tristan Pusztahegyi, Lazar Stefanovic, Theo Rigopoulos and Nathaniel Edwards coming in for Marko Stojadinovic, Ythallo, Hassan Ayari and Jesús Batiz.

Moments from the half-time interval, NYCFC II capitalized when the hosts were unable to clear their lines, striking first as captain Taylor Calheira’s effort found the net in the 43rd minute.

Late into first-half stoppage time, TFC II were reduced to 10 men when captain Julian Altobelli was shown a second yellow card in the 48th minute.

The visitors doubled their advantage when Ronald Arévalo picked out Taylor Calheira in the 50th minute, who finished a swift counter-attack move for his second goal of the evening.

NYCFC II added a third in stoppage time through Julien Lacher’s solo effort before the Young Reds scored a consolation goal in the 94th minute through an own goal off Steven Bednarsky to make it 1-3 on the night.

Following an upcoming bye week, the Young Reds return to action to host Inter Miami CF II on Wednesday, June 26. Kick-off from York Lions Stadium in Toronto, Ontario is set for 7:00 p.m. ET and will be available to watch on MLSNEXTPro.com and the MLS YouTube channel.
