MONTREAL—It was perhaps the Montreal Impact’s best game of the season, but it was only fair that it ended in a draw with rival Toronto FC.
A fast-paced game with big chances at both ends produced a 2-2 draw in wet weather Sunday afternoon between the Canadian MLS rivals when Tosaint Ricketts came off the bench to score the equalizer in the 87th minute.
The Impact got what it wanted — it clinched a playoff spot for a second year in a row — while Toronto stayed in the hunt for one of the top two Eastern Conference placings that would give it home field advantage and a bye into the conference semifinals.
