Late Griffin Yow goal saves D.C. United in 2-2 draw with Toronto FC

D.C. United and Toronto FC have produced late drama time and again in recent years, and they did it again tonight in a 2-2 draw at Audi Field. Toronto came from 1-0 down thanks to goals from Alejandro Pozuelo and Ayo Akinola, but United homegrown winger Griffin Yow’s first MLS goal in the 88th minute gave the Black-and-Red a point.

United had gone nearly a full calendar year without scoring a first half goal, but wasted no time in this one. It couldn’t have been easier: Ola Kamara caught Omar Gonzalez in possession, stripping the veteran center back of the ball about 40 yards out, racing in alone on Quentin Westberg, and calmly stroking a low shot past him from 18 yards.
