It's early in the MLS season, but frustration is growing at Toronto FC.
Injuries to key personnel have denied coach Bob Bradley a chance to field his first-choice team. Toronto (0-1-2) has led in all three games but has been unable to hold out for the win.
TFC continues its quest for a first victory of the season Saturday when Inter Miami (2-1-0) comes to BMO Field.
Toronto is winless in its last nine league games (0-6-3) dating back to last season. Its last victory came Aug. 27, a 2-0 decision at Charlotte FC.
Italian star winger Lorenzo Insigne (groin) and Norwegian forward Adama Diomande (hamstring) remain sidelined for Toronto. Defender Shane O'Neill, who has had such issues before, is out with headaches.
Things get worse next week with Toronto losing fullback Richie Laryea, midfielders Jonathan Osorio and Mark-Anthony Kaye and forward Ayo Akinola to Canada, meaning further roster holes for an away game at San Jose.
"Simply put, it doesn't work great that you play over international breaks," Bradley said.
