Estoril start their Portuguese Primeira Liga campaign at Olhanense. Tony Taylor is in the squad but not expected to start. Game is at 3:15 Eastern. Stream?
He did start. Not sure why the Portuguese sites were predicting Gerso to start. Taylor has played as a starter throughout the preseason. http://www.yanks-abroad.com/content.php?mode=show&id=9351 Haven't found a stream. Will keep looking.
Taylor picked up a yellow card for pulling on a shirt. and Olhanense just equalized 29' two incidents not related
Taylor drew a foul at the right side of the box after a great show of skill to beat two players marking him. The resulting free kick leads to a corner which leads to nothing
Estoril lose 2-1 flash score has taylor going the full 90 but I didn't see him out there in the second half if he did play he wasn't very involved
He was taken out in the 60th minute. Gerso replaced him. Tony had a couple nice runs, drawing a corner and free kick, but obviously he didn't stand out. Estoril's coach (Marco Silva) wasn't impressed by either team according to his post game interview. On another note. Estoril has a center back who was born in Toronto. I've watched him for a couple seasons and the dude's a beast. He's 6'4, so he's naturally physically dominant, especially in a place like Portugal. But he's also become really good reading the game and distributing the ball, not to mention the fact that he scores fairly regularly for a defender. He played a couple times for Portugal's youth teams, but never the senior team. Canada needs to put some pressure on this guy. I'd take him on the US for sure.
