Toronto FC

D.C. United
BMO Field, Toronto, Ontario

He's back...love him or hate him, Dwayne de Rosario is back at BMO Field for another late afternoon clash (and he's brought a certain Maicon Santos back with him), the first half of a home-and-home series with D.C. United. History usually has a way of kicking the Reds in the behind when ex-Reds return (see:
Carl Robinson

Montreal Impact

Meanwhile, DC is coming off a 5-3 loss to the
San Jose Earthquakes
last week, ending a seven game unbeaten run -- and you know that DeRo and his crew will want to restart another chain of undefeated matches. While Canadian
Dejan Jakovic

Josh Wolff
will likely not be available, TFC will have to contend with
Maicon Santos

Jeremy Hall
