TORONTO, June 14 (UPI) -- Rohan Ricketts scored his first two career Major League Soccer goals Saturday to lead Toronto FC to a 3-1 victory over Colorado.

Danny Dichio added his team-high fifth goal as TFC remained undefeated at home this season and extended its unbeaten home streak to nine games dating back to last season.

Toronto FC (6-4-2) has already matched its win total from last season, when the expansion club had the worst record in MLS.

Rookie goalie Brian Edwards got his second win for Toronto, starting in place of Greg Sutton, who is one of five Reds on international duty.

Christian Gomez scored the lone goal for Colorado (5-7-0) to snap Toronto's run of not allowing a goal at home at 403 minutes. Toronto has allowed just two goals in seven home games this year.
