Sargent Records His 1st Career Hat Trick as Toronto FC Rallies to Tie the Fire 4-4

Josh Sargent’s first MLS hat trick helped Toronto FC erase a deficit before Derrick Etienne Jr. equalized in second-half injury time.

  • On Saturday at BMO Field, Toronto rallied for a 4-4 draw against Chicago Fire, with Josh Sargent scoring his first MLS hat trick and Derrick Etienne netting the tying goal two minutes into second-half injury time.
  • Sargent opened the scoring in the 27th minute, added a second goal nine minutes later, and broke a 2-all tie in the 54th minute, marking Toronto's first hat trick since Federico Bernardeschi did so against Montreal on May 18, 2024.
  • Chicago Fire forward Haile-Selassie scored twice, capitalizing when goalkeeper Luka Gavran was caught out of position, while Robert Lewandowski made it 4-3 in the 63rd minute during his first professional match on Canadian soil.
  • With this result, Toronto has now rallied to earn at least a draw eight times this season after allowing the first goal, while Chicago played to a draw for the third straight match.
  • Looking ahead, Chicago Fire hosts Miami on Wednesday before staying home to play Nashville, continuing a demanding stretch of home fixtures for the Fire.
