Toronto thought a home victory was in hand when Theo Corbeanu (30′) opened the scoring and Tyrese Spicer (74′) gave them a late lead. But Montréal twice equalized in the second half, first through Joel Waterman (70′) before Giacomo Vrioni (89′) forced spot-kicks with an incredible side volley.
With the result, Montréal join reigning champions Vancouver Whitecaps FC in the CanChamp quarterfinal round. They’ll play respective home-and-away series in May and July, building towards the October tournament final.
