It was great team-play as Luca Petrasso delivered a tremendous cross, just like he did for the first goal. Not only did Osorio drift to the ball, but he also slid and made solid contact with the ball, which ended up in the back of the net. This was also Osorio\u2019s 50<sup>th<\/sup> goal for TFC, which means a lot for the Brampton native who has been with the team since 2013.<\/p>\n<p>Toronto would play good defence the rest of the way to preserve the win. DC United did not really threaten Toronto after Osorio\u2019s goal. For example, MacNaughton came up with a good defensive play in the 60-minute. Jahkelle Marshall-Rutty then made a good defensive play in the 67-minute. Achara had a really good chance in the 68-minute, but he could not finish the play.<\/p>\n<p>Salcedo made a terrific defensive play in the 68-minute of play. The only time that United looked threatening was when Alex Bono got to the ball from Grissel\u2019s cross. \u00a0A vital play was made by Bono to get the ball and not give D.C. a scoring opportunity. Also, the TFC\u2019s wall did a good job late in the game to block a DC United free-kick and the game was over.<\/p>\n<h3>Game summary<\/h3>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Bob Bradley on Luca Petrasso: &quot;I think Luca is showing that he&#39;s got really good qualities &#8230; today the biggest part that you want to give credit to is the mentality in that type of tough game.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Michael Singh (@MichaelSingh94) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MichaelSingh94\/status\/1505294332026400769?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">March 19, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>TFC did not start the game well but was able to come from behind for the 2-1 win at home.
