05/23/09	Revolution @ Toronto FC	Amado Guevara strikes twice

The reuniting of Director of Soccer Mo Johnston and midfielder Amado Guevara was one of the biggest signings in the young history of Toronto FC. Arriving from his native Honduras, Guevara immediately found his place in the midfield and assisted on Danny Dichio's goal in his very first appearance with the club on April 13th in Los Angeles against the Galaxy. Guevara quickly became a fan favourite for his darting runs, and spectacular free kicks. With a full pre-season under his belt this season, a lot more is expected of the Honduran International.
