MLS Week 22: Results & Standings
- by Soccer America , Aug 7, 2016
Toronto FC moved to within one point of Eastern Conference leader New York City FC with its fourth straight win, all at home, a 4-1 decision over New England.
On Sunday, Clint Dempsey matched Sebastian Giovinco's hat trick against the Revs with three goals of his own the Seattle Sounders' 3-1 win at Orlando City.
In the weekend's wildest game, the LA Galaxy came back from 2-0 down to tie the New York Red Bulls, 2-2, on late goals by Mike Magee and Ashley Cole, his first in MLS. The Red Bulls had three starters exit with injuries -- Damien Perrinelle, Connor Lade and Bradley Wright-Phillips -- and their head coach, Jesse Marsch, was tossed for arguing two non-calls on penalty kicks.
