Toronto FC were looking to secure a win against LAFC after a string of eight consecutive draws in their previous matches.
LAFC came into the game with one intention: to earn their sixth straight win, and they did just that. J. Ebobisse opened the scoring in the 13th minute, followed by another goal in the 69th minute from Amaya, marking his first for the team. Things went from bad to worse for Toronto when they received a red card during stoppage time.
With this victory, LAFC climbed to third place in the table with only two games remaining in the regular season. Toronto, on the other hand, will return to the drawing board to determine what changes are needed to strengthen their squad before the start of next season.
