John Herdman has resigned as head coach of Major League Soccer club Toronto FC.
Toronto was eliminated from playoff contention on Oct. 5, first losing 1-0 to Inter Miami that left its post-season hopes hanging by a thread. Later in the day, D.C. United’s 2-1 victory at New England sealed Toronto’s fate.
Toronto needed a win over Miami in its regular-season finale and help from others to stay alive in the playoff race. And despite Miami holding stars like Lionel Messi in reserve until the hour-mark, TFC could not take advantage.
Toronto finished the campaign with a Toronto 11-19-4 record.
