Robin Fraser called it progress, but not perfection.
TFC’s new head coach thinks Toronto FC ‘will probably regret missed chances’ after season-opening draw at D.C. United.

The Robin Fraser era begins with a fightback in D.C. 🔥⚽
A Bernardeschi penalty, an Osorio finish, and some Benteke bullying leave Toronto FC with a point in their season opener.

When it come to the penalty, it was a soft penalty awarded to Toronto. Both teams leave Audi sharing the spoils. #DCvTOR
Full-Time: D.C. United 2-2 Toronto FC:
In much rougher second half, Toronto proved to be the better team offensively, D.C. created some opportunities in front of goal, however not clear enough to cause any trouble for Toronto's backline. #DCvTOR

20 years of watching pro soccer and this is one of the most embarrassing penalty calls I have ever seen
this ref and the VAR should be banished to geezer league #DCU #DCvTOR
Christian Benteke picks up right where he left netting his first goal of the season after heading a Jacob Murrell cross to give United the lead back. #DCvTOR
Terrible miscommunication in the back by D.C. leads to Johnathan Osorio knocking the ball into the open net to tie the game. #DCvTOR
