Word of the Salt Lake City screwjob made its way to Zurich, Switzerland Monday.

A day after TFC was inexplicably denied a second-half goal by referee Hilario Grajeda, American international Jozy Altidore added a bit of fuel to the fire after learning of the controversial call ahead of the United States’ friendly against Switzerland Tuesday night.

“MLS refs are terrific,” he posted to his official Twitter account — undoubtedly a sarcastic shot at Grajeda.

With Toronto FC down a goal at Rio Tinto Stadium in the 73rd minute Sunday night, Nick Hagglund rose above a pair of defenders before nodding a Sebastian Giovinco restart side-netting.

But as the the ball bounced past Jeff Attinella and into the goal, Grajeda blew his whistle, negating what should have been a good goal.

The final score — 2-1 to the home team — didn’t sit well with a depleted TFC side that didn’t take care of business on defence.

“Hagglund was called for holding,” Grajeda responded to an MLS Pool Reporter post-game.

“Previously, on several occasions, he had been warned about his holding.”

Altidore isn’t the first TFC player to call out Major League Soccer’s roster of officials.

The club’s captain, Michael Bradley, teed off on referee David Gantar late last season for another inexplicable goal-negating call in Chicago.

Just two weeks ago, TFC bench boss Greg Vanney was adamant Gantar again got a big call wrong when he red carded Justin Morrow in Columbus.

“I don’t think it’s anything intentional,” Vanney said following Sunday night’s game. “It’s just referees missing calls. They’re game-changing calls.

“But you can’t just give away goals.”

Especially when your own goals are frequently being taken off the board.

Friendly win for Canada

Canada’s men’s national team is doing its best to make pundits look to the future instead of the past.

Les Rouges topped Puerto Rico 3-0 Monday night in Bayamon off a first-half goal from Tosaint Ricketts and second-half goals from Randy Edwini-Bonsu and Cyle Larin.

The win marked Canada’s first back-to-back wins since Sept. 2012.

Canada opens 2018 World Cup qualifying this June with an two-game aggregate series against Dominica.
