With Bono away, Clint Irwin gets his chance in Toronto FC goal against FC Dallas
Toronto FC has had its share of goalkeeper controversies in the past, but not these days.
When Alex Bono gradually took over in 2017, former No. 1 Clint Irwin moved a step back gracefully. It helped make for a smooth transition.
“That’s a credit to the character of the guys involved,” said Toronto coach Greg Vanney. “Clint is a first-class guy and, to me, a capable starter in this league.”
With starter Alex Bono away on U.S. national team duty, the 29-year-old Irwin will be front and centre Friday night as Toronto FC hosts FC Dallas.
