Nashville SC beats Toronto FC 1-0 at Sam Surridge-Tor


Sam Surridge temporarily lost his place on the MLS goal list. Then he got it back – and also put Nashville SC first place.

Nashville (14-5-5, 47 points) defeated FC (5-12-6, 21 points) on July 19 in Geodis Park 1-0, when Surridge scored his 18th season goal at a tap-in 29th minute. The Englishman is connected to Inter Miami-Star Lionel Messi in the Golden Boot Race, who came into the night behind Surridge, but scored twice in a 5-1 win against the New York Red Bulls.
