TORONTO (AP) — Tyrese Spicer marks his first MLS start with a goal, and substitute Prince Owusu notches his inaugural MLS goal as Toronto FC clinches a 2-0 victory over Atlanta United. Both teams had absentees; Toronto (3-1-1) due to injuries and Atlanta (2-2-0) due to international duties. Lorenzo Insigne and defender Shane O’Neill failed to complete the first half for Toronto. O’Neill, who dealt with concussion issues last season, had to be assisted off in the 27th minute following a head injury. Insigne limped off during first-half stoppage time, endeavoring to avoid putting pressure on his right leg.
