Jonathan Osorio’s 75th-minute goal rescued Toronto FC on Saturday, ending a three-goal Los Angeles Galaxy comeback and helping the MLS champions to a desperately needed 5-3 win.

Jay Chapman added an insurance goal in stoppage time with a low shot to the corner of the goal.

Los Angeles Galaxy forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic, centre, scored his 500th career goal against Toronto FC at BMO Field on Saturday. However, TFC pulled out the 5-3 win to remain alive in the MLS Eastern Conference playoff race.
