Le Toux sinks Toronto with late PK

Soccer Betting Lines

07/17/2010 - Chester, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sebastien Le Toux's penalty kick in the 94th minute helped the Philadelphia Union claim a dramatic 2-1 win over Toronto FC at PPL Park on Saturday.

Toronto equalized nine minutes from time through Chad Barrett to cancel out a 61st-minute goal from Philadelphia's Michael Orozco Fiscal. But the Union's Jack McInerney had his shot blocked by the hand of Toronto's Maksim Usanov in the dying minutes inside the penalty area, giving the Union a penalty kick.

And Le Toux made no mistake from the spot, sending Toronto goalkeeper Stefan Frei the wrong way to secure all three points.

The result snaps TFC's eight-game unbeaten streak, while Philadelphia continues its good run of play at home this season, winning for the third time in five games.

Philadelphia's Stefani Miglioranzi handed Toronto the first real chance of the match in the 15th minute when his poor pass allowed Barrett to get into the penalty area and fire wide of the upper-left corner of the net.

Le Toux danced past two defenders on the left and cut toward the top of the box before driving a low shot wide, but he set up the best chance of the half for either side in first-half stoppage time.

He collected a throw in near the six-yard box and pulled the ball back to Jordan Harvey, but Harvey's lunging effort came back off the post.

The Union put together a good period of pressure early in the second half and they were rewarded just after the hour mark when Le Toux's corner kick was headed inside the upper-right corner of the net by Orozco Fiscal.

The Reds equalized 20 minutes later as a long throw from Dan Gargan made its way close to the six-yard box and was flicked inside the far post by the head of Barrett.

However, the Union was not satisfied with just one point, and after conceding a stoppage-time winner in a 2-1 loss to the San Jose Earthquakes last time out, they provided some late heroics of their own to climb off the bottom of the Eastern Conference table.
