FC Cincinnati begin Shield defense vs. Toronto FC
FC Cincinnati begin their defense of the 2023 MLS Supporters’ Shield on Sunday when they host a Toronto FC side that massively underperformed expectations a season ago. Behind Luciano Acosta’s MVP-winning season, in which he scored a career-high 17 goals and assisted 14 more, Cincy eased to a Shield victory by six points. The team clinched the honor for the best regular season with three matches to play after winning 3-2 at Toronto on Sept.
