Columbus Crew's striker Cucho Hernandez continues having strong performances, putting Hernandez firmly in the mix for MLS' MVP conversation.

Tonight, the Crew will face Toronto for the second time this season. The first meeting was at Lower.com Field on July 6, and Columbus won 4-0. Follow along for Crew vs Toronto FC updates: There are four players on the official availability report for Toronto on Wednesday vs Columbus:

Crew midfielder Andres Herrera looked to generate the first offense attempt for Columbus with a shot inside Toronto's box but had that attempt blocked by a Toronto defender. After the block, the ball rolled into the arms of goalkeeper Sean Johnson, shutting down the play. The attempt was recorded as a save for Johnson.

With seven regular-season matches and the Campeones Cup still left on the schedule in the next 31 days, the Crew are getting started with another long and congested stretch with a matchup against Toronto FC on the road on Wednesday.
