Ex-Spurs striker Defoe scores twice in winning Toronto FC debut

Former Tottenham striker Jermain Defoe struck twice on debut for Toronto FC yesterday.

The England international took to Major League Soccer comfortably as the big-spending Canadians beat Seattle Sounders 2-1 to start their season in winning fashion.

Defoe still hopes to make the plane to Brazil and said this week that England coach Roy Hodgson 'knows exactly' what he can do.

Two goals on debut is hardly a bad start.
