Jules-Anthony Vilsaint came off the bench for the late tying goal, as Toronto FC tied the visiting Columbus Crew 1-1 on Saturday.
Vilsaint scored in the 77th minute, only two minutes after entering, from a pinpoint service by Djordje Mihailovic in his home debut for Toronto (5-13-8, 23 points), who have two losses and two ties in the past four matches.
Mihailovic was acquired in a trade with the Colorado Rapids on Aug. 7 and earned his second assist with his new club.
The Crew (12-5-9, 45 points) thought they had the go-ahead score moments later, but goal-scorer Daniel Gazdag was ruled offside after a review.
Diego Rossi gave Columbus the lead in the eighth minute, but the Crew dropped to 2-2-1 in the past five MLS matches.
His team-high 13th goal involved a bit of luck. Steven Moriera was attempting to get the ball to him from the right side of the box when the pass deflected off Toronto defender Sigurd Rosted's leg to Rossi for a quick strike.
The start for Toronto was similar to its previous match at Philadelphia when the Union scored in the fourth minute but was able to pull even in the 90+1 minute for the draw in the last of four straight away matches.
Columbus was unable to gain a two-goal advantage in the first half because of an outstanding save 1-on-1 by Sean Johnson on Andres Herrera in the 27th minute.
Johnson returned from missing the Philadelphia match while in concussion protocol for his 425th MLS start. Crew midfielder Darlington Nagbe did not play because of a torso injury.
The Crew are 6-0-2 in the past eight vs. Toronto.
Columbus played its first MLS match since a 3-1 home loss to Orlando City. In between there were three Leagues Cup matches and a postponement of their Aug. 9 match at New York City FC to Sept. 17.
