TORONTO -- In hosting Inter Miami CF on Tuesday, struggling Toronto FC could do well to take a page out of the second-year MLS team's book.After a 2-8-2 start, Miami has recorded three successive clean sheets, is unbeaten in five and has only lost one of its last 10 games . In contrast, Toronto languishes in the 27-team league's basement, having lost five straight and gone winless in eight . Javier Perez's team has not won since July 24, a 2-1 decision in Chicago.
"Mentality, attitude, intensity -- being able to handle adversity, I think, has been the biggest thing that we've been absolutely sensational with. The ability to take punches, the ability to bounce back from disappointments, the ability to support each other in difficult moments was something that I think has been our most impressive thing.''
"It's more about how you can give support and build the confidence of the players. Because at the end of the day, the games are coming very fast? We need to get these guys back very quickly into some kind of condition to win games.''"It obviously doesn't feel good to be in the state that we're in right now,'' he said."So we're trying a lot of very different things and hoping it helps us and moves us in a better direction.
Forward Ayo Akinola and midfielder Ralph Priso are both gone for the season after undergoing their own surgeries. Miami won 3-1 when the clubs met in August in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. But Neville is not taking Toronto lightly, repeating what many opposition coaches have said this season.
