Toronto FC II (1W-2L-0T, 3 points) fell to a 4-0 road loss against the New England Revolution II (2W-0L-1T, 8 points)
on Friday afternoon in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
TFC II Head Coach Gianni Cimini employed a pair of changes from his side that started against Chicago Fire FC II just
over a fortnight ago. Lucas Olguin and Antone Bossenberry entered the starting eleven in place of Tim Fortier
and Malik Henry.
The hosts struck first through Brazilian attacker Marcos Dias’ direct free-kick in the 17th minute.
Toronto FC II found the back of the net eight minutes before the half-time whistle through Antone Bossenberry,
only for the TFC Academy product to be denied his first professional goal courtesy of the linesman’s offside flag.
New England Revolution II doubled their advantage when substitute Liam Butts was on hand to tap home from close-range
after Adisa De Rosario denied Gevork Diarbian’s initial attempt in the 65th minute.
New England added a third when Marcos Dias found Olger Escobar at the top of the box, before the substitute’s
left-footed strike was deflected into the net in the 75th minute.
Revs II scored their fourth and final goal of the afternoon in the 88th minute, when Liam Butts’ side-footed
Marcos Dias’ short pass home to secure the 4-0 result and all three points from Gillette Stadium.
The Young Reds complete their four-game road stretch to begin the 2025 MLS NEXT Pro campaign with a visit
