TORONTO (AP) — Toronto FC and the Los Angeles Galaxy played a scoreless draw Saturday night amid nearby G20 Summit protests that prevented several thousand fans from attending the game at BMO Field.
Subway shutdowns, altered bus routes and the uncertainty over road closures contributed to the smaller-than-usual crowd. The attendance was announced at 18,809, though it didn’t reflect the actual number of fans in the stands.
Los Angeles (10-1-3) is playing without stars Landon Donovan and Edson Buddle, members of the U.S. team eliminated from the World Cup earlier Saturday.
Toronto FC is 5-4-3.
