MLS Wrap: RSL, Fire secure first wins

Jackson Goncalves looked to have secured a point on the road for Toronto when he scored in the 88th minute but RSL hit back straight from the restart, with Jordan Allen heading home from Javier Morales' cross.

The win took the Utah-based club from the bottom of the Western Conference to fifth with five points, one behind third-placed San Jose Earthquakes.

Luke Mulholland opened the scoring for RSL seven minutes before half-time, timing his run to the back post perfectly to nod Morales' cross into the net.

The Brazilian defender sent a glancing header past Philadelphia goalkeeper Rais M'Bolhi from Harry Shipp's free-kick in the 37th minute.
