Altidore sparks MLS title

Jozy Altidore was selected MLS Cup MVP after he opened the scoring in the

67th minute and Toronto FC beat Seattle

2-0 on Saturday to become the first Canadian champion in league history and deny the Seattle Sounders a repeat triumph. Altidore’s goal snapped Seattle’s lengthy streak of keeping opponents off the scoreboard. The Sounders had not been scored upon since a 2-0 loss to Philadelphia on Oct. 1, going six games without conceding.
