Toronto has won once and recorded five draws since conceding goals in a season-opening 3-2 loss at D.C
Toronto FC extended its unbeaten run to six games and Nashville SC posted its fifth shutout of the season as the two teams battled to a 0-0 draw in MLS play Saturday.
Former TFC winger Jacob Shaffelburg was in the Nashville starting lineup for the sixth time in seven games this season. Both sides looked to their attacking talisman to lead the way: German attacking midfielder Hany Mukhtar for Nashville and Bernardeschi for Toronto. The home side had a chance to go ahead in the first minute only to see C.J. Sapong’s powerful header hit Toronto centre back Matt Hedges flush in the face. The veteran defender finished out the half but was replaced at the break by Lukas McNaughton, making his first appearance of the season.
Willis almost dug a hole for himself in the 56th minute with a poor clearance but Toronto’s Brandon Servania lost his footing and could not take advantage.Bernardeschi has also carried much of the offensive load for Toronto this season. The 29-year-old Italian has been involved in 10 of Toronto’s last 17 MLS goals dating back to Aug. 27, 2022.Mukhtar, with one goal and three assists coming into Saturday’s game, had been involved in four of Nashville’s six goals this season.
