Sinisa Ubiparipovic, playing for the first time this year, scored in the 18th minute and Wenger added what turned out to be the game-winning score in the late going.

Danny Koevermans tallied for Toronto in the 88th minute.

Toronto played shorthanded for much of the second half when Logan Emory was given a direct red card for slamming into Sanna Nyassi to prevent a scoring opportunity.

Toronto (0-4-0) is the only team in MLS without a win.
