Game Central
Pride Night presented by Cub
The boys in Black & Blue return to Allianz Field this weekend to face Toronto FC for the first time since 2019. The two teams have only ever met three times during the regular season, but every game has been a tight and high-scoring battle, with 19 goals scored and one-goal margins deciding each game. Both teams are making their way to Minnesota after close midweek games that resulted in less than the desired three points. Toronto faced Chicago at home and came out with one point after a 0-0 draw where the Canadian side outshot their opponent by 15. Minnesota, on the other hand, is coming in fresh off a tight 2-1 loss to Austin, where they saw two goals ruled out due to offside. With both sides ready for redemption and a history of tight, high-scoring games, Saturday's match is one you won't want to miss. Can't make it to St. Paul? No problem! You can stream the game for FREE on Apple TV or tune in to 1500 ESPN to see which team comes out on top.
