MLS Review: New York City edge Toronto in Torrent's first game
In Domenec Torrent's first game at the helm, New York City overcame Toronto in MLS.
A Jo Inge Berget brace helped New York City to a 2-1 win over Toronto in Domenec Torrent's first game in charge on Sunday.
Torrent, who took over from Patrick Vieira earlier this month after the Frenchman's move to Nice, led his side to a hard-fought win at Yankee Stadium.
After David Villa came off injured for City approaching the half-hour mark, Victor Vazquez opened the scoring for Toronto.
Vazquez got on the end of a long pass from Auro before lobbing onrushing goalkeeper Sean Johnson.
Berget equalised six minutes after half-time with a neat back flick, before the Norwegian scored the winner.
