Toronto FC's equalizer came in the 88th minute, courtesy of Jonathan Osorio. Richie Laryea was prominent in the match, with multiple player-on-player confrontations. Olger Escobar and Efrain Morales showed combativeness due to Laryea's actions.

Victor Loturi's work in midfield, while often unnoticed, is becoming more noticeable in recovery, long balls, and duels. His contributions helped CF Montreal maintain possession and create chances throughout the game.

The game was not without its share of discipline issues. CF Montreal received three yellow cards in 40 minutes, with a lenient warning from referee Drew Fischer.
