C.J. Sapong scored one minute into the second half and Sean Johnson made it stand up as Toronto FC blanked visiting New York City FC 1-0 on Saturday night.
Richie Laryea had an assist on Sapong’s first goal of the season.
Sapong was acquired by Toronto in a trade with Nashville SC on Tuesday, with Saturday night serving as his debut with his new club.
It marked Sapong’s 89th regular-season goal and his first since last May. The 13-year veteran has now scored in his first starts for Sporting Kansas City, Chicago, Nashville and Toronto.
