CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Idan Toklomati and Kerwin Vargas each scored a second-half goal, Kristijan Kahlina had three saves and Charlotte FC beat Toronto FC 2-0 on Saturday night to win their fourth Major League Soccer game in a row.
Kahlina has six shutouts this season for Charlotte (12-11-2), which is unbeaten in five straight.
Brandt Bronico chipped an entry from the right corner of the box to the back post and a wide-open Toklomati headed home the finish to open the scoring in the 60th minute.
Vargas made it 2-0 in the 65th. Wilfried Zaha dispossessed Toronto in its defensive half and immediately played a ball-ahead that led a streaking Vargas for a low finish from the right-centre of the area that deflected of goalkeeper Sean Johnson into the top corner of the net.
The 20-year-old Toklomati has all of his six career goals this season, his second in MLS. The Israeli forward scored a goal in back-to-back games and has five goals in his last seven contests.
Sean Johnson stopped two shots for Toronto (5-13-6).
Charlotte's Souleyman Doumbia (hamstring) did not play.
Charlotte beat Toronto 2-0 May 31 on the road.
