The inconclusive test came from a Toronto player while the positive test was from a D.C. United player. Both players and teams are being retested.
MLS deputy commissioner Mark Abbott made the announcement just minutes before the scheduled 9 a.m. ET kickoff at ESPN’s Wide World of Sports complex.
The match will be rescheduled once results of the new tests come back, Abbott said.
It marked the teams’ second delay.
