Last Time Out
St. Louis CITY SC continued their red-hot form with a 3-1 win over Toronto FC last Saturday. The victory marked 16 consecutive matches unbeaten in league play and 18 matches across all competitions. In what was a dominant performance, Carlo Holse, Tomas Totland, and Simon Becher all found the back of the net, with Alex Mățan (2), Conrad Wallem (2), and Totland earning assists in the match. Toronto's Theo Corbeanu added a consolation headed goal in second-half stoppage time.
Norwegian Wingbacks Flying
CITY SC’s two Norwegian wingbacks, Conrad Wallem and Tomas Totland, continue to thrive under Yoann Damet’s system this season and have put in strong performances with some goal contributions as well. Against Toronto, Wallem recorded two assists while Totland earned a goal and assist. Wallem leads the team in assists with eight in the regular season (nine across all competitions), while Totland has five regular-season assists (seven across all competitions) and four goals across all competitions. Wallem has registered nine total goal contributions in his last eight matches, and Totland has five goal contributions (three goals, two assists) in his last five matches.
