Pozuelo converts penalty kick to lift TFC over Impact. MORE:

MONTREAL — The decision to return to play was not taken lightly by Justin Morrow and his Toronto FC teammates, who wrestled with the implications of their actions for the last two days.

"For me, it was incredibly tough to play tonight," said Morrow, the executive director of the BPC."There were a lot of players on Montreal that didn't want to play. But MLS resumed activities following a meeting between players, the players association and the BPC. Morrow called the discussions leading up to that decision"chaotic" and"exhausting."

Players from both teams wore"Black Lives Matter" t-shirts in the pre-game warmup and took a knee in a moment of reflection prior to the game's opening whistle. Most players also knelt during the anthem. "In the end, we didn't want to play today but we felt nobody had our backs. We're a little disappointed by a few of our opponents."

They made a small dent in the 20,801-seat venue but chanted and cheered throughout the game. Some waved rainbow-coloured flags in support of Pride Night in MLS. Fans outside the stadium provided even more atmosphere by setting off fireworks every few minutes.
