Toronto FC ran out of lives Saturday, eliminated from MLS playoff contention after a 2-1 loss to the Vancouver Whitecaps. Whitecaps forward Alphonso Davies beats Toronto FC midfielder Marco Delgado to the ball in Saturday’s match at BMO Field. For the second week in a row, Toronto went into the game knowing that a tie or loss coupled with a Montreal win would end its playoff run. Last week, TFC dodged a bullet by beating visiting New England 4-1 while D.C. United blanked Montreal 5-0. But Montreal did not co-operate Saturday, defeating the Columbus Crew 3-0 to pile on the pressure on Toronto, whose game immediately followed.
