Aziel Jackson scored in the 50th minute as St. Louis City SC downed Toronto FC 1-0 on Saturday night to hand the struggling Canadian side its fifth straight loss.
The 21-year-old midfielder took advantage of a sloppy sequence around the TFC's penalty area before sliding home his first-career Major League Soccer goal early in the second half.
St. Louis , meanwhile, is now unbeaten in three as the expansion club continues to build on a solid campaign atop the Western Conference. Lorenzo Insigne missed a second straight match with a lower-body injury, while fellow Italian star Federico Bernardeschi sat out after being sent off against Orlando.
Romero made a big stop on St. Louis leading scorer Nicholas Gioacchini in the 18th minute before TFC defender Kobe Franklin flashed an effort just wide at the other end in the 32nd. Marshall-Ruty had another opportunity to break TFC's goal drought early in the second half — Toronto entered with three goals in its last seven matches — but couldn't find the range from just outside the 18-yard box.
