What happened: Malte Amundsen earned Nationwide Man of the Match honors for Columbus Crew against Toronto FC. The defender recorded a brace while anchoring the back line during the match.

Why it matters: Getting two-way production from the back line gives Columbus extra attacking punch after Amundsen converted earlier in the match. Combining that scoring output with his defensive shift keeps Toronto FC facing a 4-2 deficit in the MLS postseason matchup.

What to watch: Columbus Crew looks to protect its advantage on the pitch as the live postseason match against Toronto FC continues.
