Around the East | INSIDER

There wasn’t a ton of movement in the East after this weekend’s results, but the race between the top six positions is as tight as ever.

Toronto locks it up

Toronto FC clinched the first playoff spot of the 2016 season on Saturday and all they needed was a 3-3 draw against New York Red Bulls to do it.

Early on, it looked like the Red Bulls had the game on lock. New York was up 3-1 in the 67th minute until Jozy Altidore sprang into action. Scoring in the 68th and 86th minutes, Altidore got his team all tied up with the Red Bulls -- solidifying their first place seeding and clinching a spot in the post season.
