Jozy Altidore scored in the 86th minute, Sebastian Giovinco had two assists and Toronto FC beat Orlando City 2-1 on Wednesday night.

Toronto won its sixth game during a seven-game unbeaten streak and moved past New York City FC atop the Eastern Conference.

Altidore slipped behind the defense and tapped a feed from Giovinco past goalkeeper Joe Bendik near the top of the box before rolling a left-footer into an open net.

Tosaint Ricketts broke away down the right flank, ran onto a throw in from Giovinco and slipped a right footer past Bendik inside the near post in the seventh minute to give Toronto a 1-0 lead.

Cyle Larin headed a cross from Kevin Alston off the right post and into the net to tie it in the 56th. Larin has 30 goals in 50 career MLS games.

Bendik had five saves, including a pair of diving stops in the second half.

Herbers, making his fifth start of the season, opened the scoring in the 60th minute. Chris Pontius tapped it to Herbers who, from the top of the box, had a shot blocked by Hector Jimenez before side-netting the rebound. Both of his two career goals have come against Columbus.

Adam Jahn tied it in the 73rd minute. Tony Tchani's header, off the corner by Federico Higuain, was deflected off the crossbar by goalkeeper Andre Blake and -- after a failed clearance by the Union -- Jahn tapped it in from close range.

It was the Union's third consecutive home win. Columbus has one win in its last 11 matches.

Hassoun Camara nodded in a goal in the 77th minute and the Montreal Impact tied D.C. United 1-1.

Marco Donadel recovered his own ball after Lamar Neagle's block and lofted a pass to the far post that Camara headed in for his second goal of the season for Montreal.

Andrew Wenger put a rising, right-footer into the top-left corner to give Houston a 1-0 lead in the 75th minute. The Sounders missed two chances to clear and Ricardo Clark tapped a feed -- after Seattle blocked two other Dynamo shots -- to Wenger on the right side of the box.

Houston outshot the Sounders 22-6. After a five-game winless streak, the Dynamo are unbeaten in their last three.

Giovani Dos Santos and Gyasi Zardes scored as the LA Galaxy tied Chicago Fire 2-2.

Dos Santos tied it in the 69th minute. Sebastian Lletget dumped it to Alan Gordon on the right side of the box. Gordon fed it to Dos Santos who chipped in high with the outside of his left foot.

Zardes put Los Angeles in front in the 31st minute, blasting a failed clearance into the net from the penalty spot.

Chicago scored twice in the next eight minutes to take a 2-1 lead. Arturo Alvarez put away the rebound of a header by Michael de Leeuw in the 34th, and David Accam converted a penalty kick five minutes later.

Diop, making his second career start in place of the injured Brian Rowe, had six saves.

The Fire -- tied with Columbus with an MLS-low 23 points -- are unbeaten in their last three matches. Los Angeles has just one loss in its last 11

Bingham, who was tied for second in MLS soccer with 12 shutouts last season, had three saves -- including a stop on Diego Fagundez's shot in the 86th minute.

The Revolution haven't scored since a 3-1 victory over Chicago on Aug. 9, a stretch of more than 270 minutes.

San Jose has just one loss in its last seven matches.
