Afful feels great to score debut goal but wanted win

Harrison Afful is delighted to have scored his first MLS career and Columbus Crew goal but would have wished his side beat Toronto FC on Wednesday.

The Blood and Gold were held to a 1-1 draw at the MAPFRE Stadium.

Afful powered in a volley to open the scoring on 54 minutes, but the visitors levelled minutes after the hour mark through Jordan Hamilton.

"It feels great, but I’m not happy with the result. For me, I always want to win. So, even though I scored, I think the result is more important than scoring. So we just have to step up our game and focus on Saturday," the Ghana international said.

However, the draw helped Columbus Crew SC to extend their unbeaten streak at home to eight consecutive matches.
