Insigne admits mistake on MLS

Finally a victory, that’s what Lorenzo Insigne had to say to himself this weekend after Toronto’s victory against Wayne Rooney’s DC United (2-1).

This welcome success allows the teammates of Insigne, author of 2 assists, his first contributions this season after 15 contested days, to gain a place and to « throne » the penultimate rank of the classification.

Happy with this positive outcome, the new Toronto captain came to the interview to express his relief and acknowledge his error in the image he had made of the US championship: “The last few weeks have been very difficult. I have to admit, I didn’t expect MLS to be that tough. I learn every day and I try to adapt. I am happy here, we will continue to learn together and progress as a team. »
