MLS Disciplinary Committee fines TFC's Etienne, Montreal's Waterman
Published
The MLS Disciplinary Committee has fined Toronto FC midfielder Derrick Etienne Jr. and CF Montreal defender Joel Waterman for misbehaviour in Saturday's 6-1 TFC win at Stade Saputo.
Etienne was sanctioned "for making an inappropriate gesture" in the 84th minute — seemingly for a disparaging hand gesture after he was called for a foul near the Montreal penalty box.
Waterman was fined for failure to leave the field in a timely manner after being shown a red card in the 21st minute for pulling down Toronto forward Ola Brynhildsen.
The six-goal spree was a TFC franchise record in league play.
As usual, the league did not detail the amount of the fines.
