2025 Zips in the Pros

[TennZip]

For the 2nd straight game, there are 6 or 7 paragraphs written about the unselfishness and talent of Richie Laryea

comments from their coach

 

"I thought he was great. I thought he was very good. Again, Richie's understanding of what's dangerous, what's not, when to close, when to close hard, when to be patient, I think all of that [was good]. I knew Richie [when] he first came to TFC in 2019, and he was young and naïve then, and I feel like he's a completely different person now," Robin Fraser said.  

"He is a seasoned pro who we've obviously asked him to play in a number of different positions in the last couple of games, and he just does what's asked of him because it's what the team needs. So, I thought he put in a really incredible shift."

Hope you enjoyed. That is an excellent stadium with a beautiful view. I need to get over there and see a game with Beto.

Beto was the highest rated riverhound in the game...despite being clobbered by a Rhode Island vicious elbow during the game.

Jacquesson was on the end of an exquisite diagonal ball from Beto Ydrach.

“It was a very good ball from Beto (Ydrach),” Jacquesson said.

 

In a moment that was emblematic of physical nature of the match, Rhode Island’s JJ Williams was sent off in the 68th minute for delivering a vicious elbow, which floored Hounds’ defender Beto Ydrach right on the sideline by the bench.

Here is an article from an Toronto FC fan site

I like one of the comments below the article

 

The good news was Henry. He changed the match with three or four impressively good passes, including the assistance. He is very fast and anxious to play.
