00:00actually in the starting 11 of the team who started that final in nashville

00:03bush gets his back and fresh on the paris olympics diego gomez comes straight in

00:07it's all about getting the front players on the ball martinez on the floor is

00:11really strong the question how do they handle the mobility and the quick passes

00:14of miami but tfc they can cause problems

00:17themselves going forward now the defending champions

00:21hosting toronto and hoping to progress on this journey which gets underway

00:27right now from chase stadium self-sufficient without their stars but

00:32big names tell me they like big games big giveaway though and an early chance

00:36and a shot is saved so i didn't really get hold of that that was one of the big

00:40names how much longer he'll be here in miami

00:43of course a big question

00:46reports firming up of a move to the premier league for him as this ball's

00:49played into the box that was redondo arriving

00:51this is gonna fall for a brilliant finish from rojas

00:55an electric start in miami

01:03with confidence but it's a different look to ronald side tonight and just

01:06look how portretta he gets tangled in on top of long and

01:10that just leaves rojas completely on mark at the back stick he

01:13still has a little bit to do look at this first touch

01:15how he settles it onto his left and off that bounce

01:18i have bells gets over top of it what a pure strike that is

01:23you felt they could get more from and they've gone over the top though miami

01:26here again and it's alba oh he sets it up and it's

01:30put wide by gomez that really should have been two nil this is a

01:34different type of intensity and you think of a fair-skinned

01:38yorkshireman like maddie longstaff you sympathize with them tony i

01:42sympathize to a degree i'm just watching there's gomez through

01:47the middle another go another goal two nil miami

01:51oh they're making this look very easy and they may already be well on their

01:57way to the round of 16 in the defense of

02:00their league's cup trophy

02:05right now just no shield in front of that toronto back four

02:10weigand oh that's a mistake and then it's a penalty

02:13and it is the way back into the game contemplative moment as well

02:18where does he go this time one big exhale one big run up

02:22insigne scores and toronto are right back in it

02:25we hit 15 minutes played at chase stadium this one

02:29very much that's the most obvious conclusion to make from

02:33a substitution like this what a shame on a night where some big

02:38stars were out still got a few on the field but one of

02:41them just saw when bernadeschi was coming

02:44coming off herdman was bellowing instructions into his team saying to

02:48keep things tight centrally

02:54played over the top for suarez by alba off suarez is through

02:57he chips it past johnson and miami restore a two goal advantage

03:02three one we haven't even played 20 minutes

03:05just his movement as soon as he sees there's a little bit of space to get

03:08into but watch this touch here long thinks he's safe

03:12maybe not even a touch a body swerve that goes around the other side it just

03:15thought initially does he get a touch to flick it around

03:17the corner but it's enough that he lets it go that it surprises long

03:21even that last second the way that suarez pulls out of it long it catches

03:24them out suarez from there it's an easy lift

03:27over johnson

03:30it's an easy three goals it's played in for suarez

03:34i had redondo in the middle i'm marked for a moment there

03:37and trying to set up for rojas and then the shot

03:40is saved as it came in from the left hand side

03:44from redondo it's all up for grabs again flores

03:47it's true for a wushu they could get another one oh is he brought down i

03:50think he might well have been yes penalty as far as he just drives

03:55right through past redondo and he threads a lovely ball

03:59i will so he's on side as he's going he's just squaring up to

04:03is there a little push there is

04:09it's going to be a red card you know he's off and miami are down to 10

04:13and now we have real drama in this round of 32 game

04:17miles and 100 meters of the paris olympics and it's just this side of the

04:21line so it's not a penalty but miami are down

04:24to 10 men toronto know they will play against 10

04:28men for over an hour and from 18 yards here he goes

04:33and it's just clawed away by calendar for a corner

04:39for jonathan azorio i haven't mentioned him too much there's such a better side

04:42when he's around awuso no into the box another challenge and it's

04:46another penalty awuso more stepping on top of alba

04:51and it's more as albert's going in he pulls out at the last second and it's

04:55a booster reaching back i don't think that's a penalty

05:00another spot kick for the italian another one

05:03against drake calendar here we go again and he slots it in it's three two

05:09it's a remarkable first half he's got rojas available

05:13sweet strike remember gave miami the lead in this game

05:16rodondo forward and then the shot is absolutely sensational

05:22wow what a finish

05:29rojas hit a sweet one in the first half and that one has exceeded it

05:34and the 10 men go four two up now it's no wonder that there's an

05:40embrace with alba because watch alba's movement

05:43he starts out wide left but then as he starts to come in he drifts into a

05:46little pocket now for toronto see wingo is too late

05:50coming off and alba he prepares that ball knowing

05:53that rojas wants to hit it first time just caress it he doesn't fizz it into

05:57him just lays it on to rojas his favorite left foot

06:00it doesn't even make that look easy queues it up

06:03it's gone to insignia and he'll call it in awuso's there with

06:08the header and it's four three and the substitute

06:12scores but it all starts with a great ball into insignia

06:15gets out to him quickly then nobody's closing down they're too slow to get to

06:19him he's got two touches to prepare it

06:24two nil three one four two they trailed and this is a brilliant strike from

06:30distance from kevin long it's not a very good touch from the

06:33substitute mobica and so here's campana and he's got

06:38runners he's got redondo is it five he takes his time

06:43oh he hits the post would you believe it it's over

06:48miami goes through they've made it without messy but my

06:55was it close here in south florida tonight
