What happened: Tristan Muyumba entered the match in the 80th minute to replace Cooper Sanchez as Atlanta protected a 3-1 advantage over Toronto. The substitution came immediately after Toronto scored in the 79th minute to trim the deficit. Sanchez made way after providing a key goal earlier in the contest to double the lead.

Why it matters: The late swap provided fresh legs in central midfield to protect the advantage during the closing stages of the postseason match. Muyumba, who previously came on as a 61st-minute substitute on Oct. 25, offered tactical stability to lock down the result. Holding the two-goal margin keeps Atlanta in control heading into stoppage time.

What to watch: Atlanta looks to close out the remaining 10 minutes and stoppage time to secure the postseason victory.
