Toronto FC is headed to the Canadian Championship semifinals after setting a tournament-scoring record in an 8-1 win Tuesday, completing an 11-1 aggregate victory over Ligue1 Quebec champion CS Saint-Laurent.

Deandre Kerr - The Canadian Press

When not playing football, the 24-year-old Wandje studies finance at university and works for Sunwing at the Montreal airport.The eight goals, one of which was a Saint-Laurent own goal, set a tournament record, erasing the mark set by Atletico Ottawa in a 7-0 drubbing of Valour FC on May 1 in preliminary-round play. It was also a Toronto club record.

Things went from bad to worse in the 45th minute when Saint-Laurent's veteran Tunisian defender Oussama Boughanmi was shown a straight red card when he caught Alonso Coello with a boot to the face. It was unintentional but reckless. He becomes the first player to score four goals in a Canadian Championship match and the first TFC player to score four goals in a game.

"There's a tremendous amount of positives to take out of this and, of course, a huge amount of lessons," Razzaghi said."But that's why we're here.""We were like OK we're playing a team that plays in the league of Messi. That's crazy." Herdman made nine changes to his starting lineup from the weekend with only Lorenzo Insigne and Coello retaining their spot. Tuesday's lineup featured seven of the same starters from the first leg.
