Just what I would want, start my job with the playoffs, raise performance with a big gap between games is not so bad though is it?

Upon further review...Jozy is out of the games and the roster now sits at 25. This would rule him out for the game facing Canada at his home field, BMO in Toronto. He is no less than the 2nd player to be lost due to injury on Decision Day in MLS. Who if anyone will be the repalcement? Like the rest of us, he may now watch the game, Friday with Cuba from Audi field at 7 ET on FS1, UniMas & TUDN. I am pretty sure he will be present for the game on the 15th at 7:30 ET, but for the rest of us it will be on ESPN2, UniMas & TUDN. No word on it impacting his play in the MLS playoffs.

More FIre pressure lead to another goal scoring opportunity as Akindele had a tremendous chance.
