Toronto FC young striker Jordan Hamilton looks to make the most of his chances
TORONTO — Two shots, two goals. Jordan Hamilton has made the most of his 64 minutes of league action with Toronto FC this year.
The latest was a delightful glancing header that sealed Toronto’s 2-0 win over D.C. United on Saturday night.
Ten minutes after coming on in the 75th minute, Hamilton headed to the near post on a Sebastian Giovinco corner with veteran defender Steve Birnbaum hot in pursuit. Hamilton won the race and, from the edge of the six-yard box while heading towards the byline, flicked a header from an acute angle that beat Bill Hamid to the far side of the goal.
A snooker pro would have nodded his head in appreciation at the setup and execution.
