TorontoAssists in loss
Franklin assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-2 loss to Inter Miami CF.
Analysis: Franklin set up Emilio Aristizabal's 90th minute strike, picking up his second assist of the season with a pinpoint delivery that the Colombian forward powered home to make it 4-2 and cap the late push. He also held his own defensively with three clearances and one interception in a composed shift at right-back, helping Toronto try to keep Miami's attack in check while winning two aerial duels in the first half. Franklin is heating up in a big way with two goals and two assists over his last five matches, strong production for a right-back.
Earns another goal contribution
Franklin assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 defeat versus Atlanta United.
Analysis: Franklin continues his great offensive run despite being a right-back, as he found Emilio Aristizabal in the 71st minute for Toronto's only goal. This marks his third straight game with a goal contribution, earning two goals and an assist during that span. This accounts for all of his goal contributions this season in his seven appearances (five starts).
Back to back on scoresheet
Franklin scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and two crosses (one accurate) in Wednesday's 3-3 draw versus Philadelphia Union.
Analysis: Franklin made a second consecutive start after limited involvement earlier in the season and found the net in both matches. The defender converted two of his three attempts, with those goals standing as his only tallies in the league for Toronto in his fifth season with the senior senior side.
