WATCH: Genius! Federico Bernardeschi scores direct from corner to give Toronto the lead in MLS clash with Charlotte
- Bernardeschi scores direct from corner
- Third goal in six games
- Helped Toronto in a 2-2 draw
WHAT HAPPENED? Bernardeschi has already helped Toronto FC out with four goal contributions in six games so far and on Sunday night he scored a spectacular 'Olimpico' goal against Charlotte in the sixth minute. The former Juventus man took a left-footed corner on the right of Charlotte's goal and managed to slot the ball into the opposite corner of the goal over the helpless George Marks.
