Altidore says video backs up his account of BMO Field tunnel melee
Toronto FC striker Jozy Altidore says he knows what happened in the BMO Field tunnel melee and the video backs him up.
Altidore and New York Red Bulls captain Sacha Kljestan were ejected after the two teams clashed in the tunnel Sunday at halftime of Game 2 of the Eastern Conference seminal.
Toronto is appealing Altidore’s red card and its accompanying one-game suspension, saying its security camera footage shows that their man was not at fault.
The Red Bulls have also appealed their red card.
