No problem,

In very general terms TOGA (for takeoff) doesn't often give you full power, it will give you the takeoff power that you have entered/selected in the Flight Management computer. That's based mainly on the aircraft weight, weather conditions. If you are light weight on a long runway it is quite possible TOGA won't select anything like 100% power.

FWIW on go-around if pushed once (on a least of couple of types I know of) TOGA gives you the power to climb at 2000 feet a minute, so not full power.....a second push however gives you 100%.
