Overview

• Jules-Anthony Vilsaint scored two minutes after entering play in his Toronto FC debut to level the score at 1-1 against the Columbus Crew.
• A potential go-ahead goal by Columbus’s Daniel Gazdag was ruled offside on VAR review moments after Vilsaint’s equalizer.
• Sean Johnson made crucial saves in stoppage time to secure the draw against a team chasing second place in the Eastern Conference.
• Toronto FC acquired Vilsaint from CF Montréal in exchange for midfielder Matty Longstaff ahead of Saturday’s match.
• The point preserved Toronto’s faint playoff hopes with a 5-8-13 record and prevented Columbus (13-9-5) from climbing the conference standings.
