COLUMBUS, Ohio - The Columbus Crew had its five-game win streak snapped on Saturday as it tied Toronto FC ,0-0, at BMO Field in the second leg of the inaugural Trillium Cup. Although Columbus had its five-game streak snapped, the Crew is still unbeaten in its last six games, with a 5-0-1 record in that span. Both sides had their share of chances on the day, but neither club was able to find a first goal, thanks in part to quality goalkeeping by the Crew's William Hesmer and TFC's Greg Sutton.
Notes:
• The Crew's record now stands at 6-1-1 after its first tie of the season and it has now gone unbeaten in six consecutive games. It is off to the best eight-game start in club history.
• Goalkeeper William Hesmer recorded his third shutout of the season. He now has eight shutouts since joining the Crew prior to the 2007 season.
• Hesmer also tied his current season-high for saves, with six.
• Midfielder Brad Evans made his first-ever MLS start, and went the full 90 minutes.
• Forward Alejandro Moreno saw his streak of consecutive matches with either a goal or assist snapped at five.
• The Crew is now 2-1-1 on the road this season. It will return home to the friendly confines of Crew Stadium next week when it hosts the New England Revolution Saturday, May 24, at 7:30 p.m. ET on Fox Soccer Channel.
