TFC II started brightly and opened the scoring just 12 minutes into the match. Julian Dunn-Johnson chased down a loose ball following a corner kick and beat his defender to the endline before clipping a cross towards the six-yard box. North Texas goalkeeper Carlos Avilez got a hand to the attempted cross tipping it onto the crossbar and providing Patrick Bunk-Andersen with a tap in. Toronto doulded its lead through Matthew Srbely following a North Texas turnover in its defensive third. Srbely’s goal came minutes after Ricardo Pepi’s bid for an equalizer pinged off the post. Pepi would get another chance to cut into the TFC II lead just before halftime. Ronaldo Damus clipped a ball over the Toronto back four and into the path of Pepi’s run. The center forward made no mistake, burying a shot in the top corner to add to his league-leading six goals this season. In a reversal of fortune, Toronto’s Jacob Shaffelburg hit a low stinging shot that bounced off the post and started a North Texas counter attack that led to an equalizer in the 56th minute. Following Shaffelburg’s miss, Callum Montgomery floated a ball forward to Arturo Rodriguez who drove at goal and forced TFC II goalkeeper Kevin Silva into a save. Damus pounced on the rebound and slotted it home to draw North Texas level. After a flurry of chances at either end, Terique Mohammed broke the 2-2 deadlock in the 77th minute, capping off a good move through midfield with a goal.
