MONTREAL (AP) — Victory Wanyama scored in the 89th minute and Zachary Brault-Guillard scored in stoppage time as Montreal rallied for a 2-2 draw against the Columbus Crew that secured the team’s first playoff spot since 2016.

Montreal is second in Major League Soccer’s Eastern Conference at 16-9-5 with four games left in the regular season.

Jonathan Mensah and Lucas Zelarayán scored for Columbus.

With three minutes of stoppage time remaining, Brault-Guillard scored from outside the box to tie the score.

Montreal had pulled within 2-1 when a shot from Matko Miljevic deflected off Wanyama.
