âWhen we look at Toronto, we know that weâre going up against a good team,â Robles said. âBut if we can learn from our mistakes, and come out with the right start, then I donât care who we play.
âI know that we can play with the best and be one of the best teams in this league,â he said.
Head Coach Jesse Marsch said Toronto, the best team in the league, are coming in âwith a great team.â
âThey will be ready to push the game,â Marsch said âThey will be flying high. Huge challenge.â
But for Marsch and his team, it wonât be about who theyâre facing, but about which Red Bull team takes the pitch.
âBut what's the bigger challenge is, this isn't about points and standings right now. It's about identity,â Marsch said. âIt's about making sure that the belief system of who we are, what we are, what we do, you know, that's -- that's where we're at right now.â
