TORONTO – Toronto FC won the 2017 Canadian Championship in dramatic fashion on Tuesday night with a last-gasp 2-1 win over the Montreal Impact (3-2 on aggregate) at BMO Field to lift the Voyageurs Cup and earn their spot in the CONCACAF Champions League.

Montreal took the lead in the 35th minute when Blerim Dzemaili surged up the middle of the park. He was dispossessed by Chris Mavinga, but recovered the loose ball to find Ballou Jean-Yves Tabla for a sweet left-footed bender past Clint Irwin to cancel the away goal and shift the balance of the tie in the Impact's favor.

But Sebastian Giovinco would not go quietly, responding in the 53rd minute with a deft finish, cutting in from the right to beat Maxime Crepeau to the bottom corner after Michael Bradley's cross-field ball picked out the Italian.

Patrice Bernier would see red for a tackle on Marky Delgado in the 89th minute, leaving the Impact to finish the match with 10 men.

And Giovinco would prove the hero come the 95th minute, tucking a Raheem Edwards cut-back into the Montreal goal.
