We couldn’t let this one pass. ⚽🔥

Our client Elias Khodri needed just five minutes on the field to score a brilliant goal and seal Toronto FC II’s 2–0 win over Connecticut United FC in their latest MLS NEXT Pro match.

Coming off the bench and making an immediate impact, Elias continues to embrace his role as a true super sub in his first professional season.

That goal marks his third direct goal contribution in 10 appearances — proof that impact is not always measured by minutes, but by what you do with them.

Moments like this are earned. 💪
